second brother was later wounded In
the same engagement and died in base
hospital.
Both were Lieutenants in the same
company. (which suffered sad depletion
in carrying the position. but in the let =
ters which Michael sent home scarcely
any mention Is made OF the seriousness
of his own injuries while eulogizing his
brothers herosm.
In letter written from a hospital In
France. Lieut.. Michael describes his
brothers gallantry and subsequent death
thus:
II was with Jim all the way until he
was hit. and I do not know A Drawer

III another letter, written shortly be-
fore he died, Michael still had nothing
TO say of how grevously he himself
must have been wounded. but dilates
further on the gallantry of his brother
and his other comrades. He said

much power the group has to influence

as a straw showing the way OF tho

popular dissatisfaction wiz the re-
newed German drive IS apparently
mounting. according TO reports here
and this feeling. coupled with a general
war WEAKNESS. Is considered to be be-
hind the Socialists efforts for peace.
Count Czernin will have 10 reckon with
this new spirit within Austria when he
again answers the President and those
who believe in a political propaganda

drives, believe that peace between Aus

that the Socialist move or the growing

compllsh a divorce between the two
