Germany Launches Peace
Drive; Dutch Emissary
Reported to Have
Gone to London
LudendorH Heads
New Teuton Move
Famous Prussian Leader
Turns to Diplomacy
After Failure to Win
on Battlefield

Emperor Charles has prorogued the
Austrian Reichrat indefinitely.
against vigorous protests. This
action is officially attributed to
the danger Of famine.
So acute is the food problem that
two German speaking districts.
the Northern Tyrol and Northern
Bohemia, have been joined to Ba-
varia and Saxony, respectively.
for provisioning purposes.
This drastic move which was vio-
lently protested by the Slav depu-
~ ties,vis, a. measure of the Em-
peror's difficulties which cause
him to desire peace SO urgently.
In addition to the food difficulties.
which conquests in the East have
not removed, the demand for self
government by the Poles, Bo-
hemians and Southern Slavs is
more insistent and in Bohemia
measure of local freedom has been
granted.
Meanwhile, the German "peace Of
fensive" has now come out into
the open.
A Dutch financier and other neu-
trails are said to have arrived in
Great Britain as emissaries of
Wilhelmstrasse. What terms they
will attempt to lay before the au-
thorities have not been divulged,
but they are expected to be "sur-
prisingly liberal" from the Ger
man point of view.
The British press in general receives
the news Of these pro-Gerrnan
neutrals' arrival with strong hos
tility, and one newspaper even ad-
vises them to retreat for the sake
of their own safety.
Great Britain believes, according to
Arthur S. Draper, that the hand
Of Ludendorff directs the peace
puppets as it does the drive for
German peace on the Western bat
tlefield. The emissaries should be
told, in the British opinion, that
their promises from Won Kuehl-
mann and the German liberal elc-
ment are of no value because these
liberals are without influence at
Berlin. The militarists control
Germany with an iron hand.
AS an aid to the peace drive Ger
many is believed to be magnify
ing her internal troubles, al
though these are not small. Ac-
counts Of food troubles are al
lowed to pass the censor in an
unaccustomed way.
The failure of the Prussian fran
chise reform bill has aroused the
most acrid criticism from the So
cialists and Liberal parties. The
handling of the Eastern problem
is strongly criticised. The au-
thorities have acted in such
way as to harden Germany's en-
emies elsewhere against her, the
argument runs. Moreover, the
inhabitants of the border states
have been rendered hostile, and
it is officially admitted the
Ukraine has sown only SO per
cent Of its usual crop this spring.
AMSTERDAM, May A. Emperor
Charles of Austria has empowered the
Austrian Premier to adjourn Parlia-
ment and forthwith inaugurate meas
ures to render impossible the resump-
tion of its activities. Vienna dispatch
says.
A statement published in Vienna in
dicates that the closure of Parliament
is due to the seriousness of the food
situation. The statement says:
"The government will devote it's en-
tire strength to the economic problem,
and will try to create, conditions re-

The absence in the foregoing dis
patch of reference to a specific front
makes it appear probable that the Ital
ian front. the scene of Austria's major
announcement of the visit therefore
seems significant in view of the recent
reports OF probable renewal Of the
Teutonic drive on the Italian front and
signs of increasing military activity
along the Austro-Italian lines. More
over, Vienna can hardly be comfort

the suppression of Parliament.

strong enough for such an

At the same time they are up against {.

Uncle Sam or else employed in Bath,

seem trifie high to some, but it IS con-
