AUSTRIANS TO
BLAME FOR WAR
[Continued from First Page.l

ter-proposals and a covering letter
reiterating that Austria had precipi-
tated the war by an ultimatum un-
acceptable to Serbia. 1t was set
forth, however, that the Allies were
willing to assist Austria to adapt
herself to her new situation and to
admit her in the near future to
the League of Nations. The treaty
was presented in French, English
and Italian texts.
The treaty was accompanied with
a covering letter which, according
to the forecasts, sets forth Austria's
responsibility in aiding to bring
about the war and points out that
she therefore could not obtain
treatment similar to that accorded
Czecho- -Slovakia and Jugo-Slavia. 1t
is declared to recognize, however,
that because of her small extent
Austria will need economic and fl
nancial help to insure her existence.
The Supreme Council discussed
the failure of Rumania to make
written responses to the Councils
notes. 1t is likely the Council will
send an admiral in the near future
with an emphatic note demanding
an immediate response by Ruma-
MIA to the Councils communica-
tions.
Rumania will not sign the peace
treaty with Austria, according to
Intransigeant, because of clause
introduced at the formal request of
the American delegates concerning
ethical minorities.
Rumania also takes exception to
clause regulating treaties, COM
merce and railroad rates, Intransi-
geant says, considering that it
would be undignified for her to ac-
cept it. The newspaper adds that
the resignation of ]. ]. c. Bratiano
as Premier is imminent.
The peace treaty to be offered
, Bulgaria, says the Temps. contains
an article by which Bulgaria will
bind itself to accept future decision
by the powers with regard to
Thrace and the Aegean Sea.
Fiume to BE Buffer State
The Fiume problem will be solved
by an agreement that the city shall
become a buffer state, with an ex-
tended hinterland, according to an
, interview with prominent Italian
which is printed in the Journal to-
day. The article declares Fiume
will be under a regime that will
assure the italian character of the
city, being governed by a council
composed of two Italians, two Jugo-
Slavs, and one citizen of Fiume. The
city of Zara, it is said, will be made
free.
