CzERNIN PREDICTED ACCURATELY THE DOWNFALL OF GERMANY AND
 AUSTRIA IN LETTER TO EMPEROR

BERLIN Associated Press Cor respondence) Count Ottokar yon Chudenitz Czernin, formerly Austrian foreign minister, is shown as a prophet who foreshadowed coming events and the collapse of the Cen tral powers with almost uncanny cor rectness in his now famous letter to the Emperor Charles, written early in April, 1917, in which he urged that monarch to make peace at all haz- ards or suffer the loss of your throne.'
 Parts of the text of Count Czern- in's historic missiye have been pub lished but the complete text, as pre- sented to the assembly at Weimar by Finance Minister Erzberger, has now appeared for the first time ill the Deutsche Allgemeine Zeitung, the official German organ.
 It shows among other things, that
  men prophesied the entrance, two years before, of Rumania into the war on the side of the allies and pre- dicted almost the day of it's out break" The letter also said the count expected" immediate French British and Italian offensives and his forecast was borne out by what hap pened Within fortnight after the note to the ruler had been drafted, on April 16, 1917, the French began the great Soissons- Rheims drive along a 25-mile front, and the Brit ish had started the battle of Arras on a front extending to Lens. The Italians, a few weeks later, plunged across the Isonzo in the CarsO sec tor for a distance of g miles, crush ing the Ausrians in their mad rush.

ORGANIZING OF
 LEAGUE IS NOW
 UNDER PROCESS

Washington, D. Co-(P)-Prepara- tion for the organization of the Leag- ue of Nations are being made in Lon don by Sir Erie Drummond, secre- tary-general, and Raymond B. Eos dick, an American under-secretary, so that the league will be in readiness to function at it's first meeting to be called in Washington. The date of this meeting is undecided.
 Colonel E. M House and Lord Rob ert Cecil and other members of the organization committee of the league have been taking part in the prelimi- nary organization work.
 The organization committee already has adopted a resolution contemplat- ing that member states may assign some of their own officials for service under the league and has recommend ed that "the governments of states members of the league shall take into consideration the services of the of

I4 N,,w of the reyerses to the armies of the Central powers and on the easS 'oI America's entry into the war Czernin urged the emperor to make another detailed peace pro posaI and not be afraid to make great, even heavy, sacrifices" Rus sia, he thot had lost its offensive power but the eagle of the west, he feared, might prove stronger ad- ycrsary than the prostrate bear.
 In Germany great hope is laid ill the submarine warfare" he wrote. "l hold this attitude Is deceptive. l do not for an instant deny the fabulous results of the German heroes of the sea. l admit admiringly that the monthly total of sunken tons is some thing akin to fable, but l go on rec ord as declaring that the result eX pected and predicted by the Ger mans will not follow It must be rem. lbered at this time that Ger man U-boats were at the height of their depredations on the sea On October 28, 1918, the German ad miralty admitted the failure of the submarine warfare by recalling all The tigers of the deep" to kiel and Wilhemshayen.
 T hope that the thot, unfortunately incorrect, that England could be com pelled within few months to make peace, will lose ground in Berlin,' wrote Count Czernin. Nothing is more dangerous than to believe those things one wants to believe, nothing Is more fatal than not wanting to see the principle of truth, and to succumb to utopian illusions from which sooner or later there must come d fearful awakening"

WITH THE AMERICAN FORCES IN GERMANY.-Py- Sale of d re production of the Lusitania medal, which for time was being peddled in the occupied areas, has been for bidden in the Rhine province by the oberpresident. Hundreds of the medals were bought by American soldiers as souvenirs. Writing to Colonel l. L. Hunt, officer in charge of civil affairs in the American area, regarding the sale of the medal by Germans the oberpresident says:
 q wish to inform you that such medal has. of course, never been coined or caused to be coined by any German government The medal is simply the outcome of misguided thrift and greatness on the part of certain private dealers who, in d most unwarrantable manner, publish ed this tasteless reproduction and nave ud W heu u dDOut, WIllJOui COA sidering for one moment, that by so doing, they stimulate the animosity against Germany.''
 The story generally current with the sale of this issue of the medals was that they were made in Munich by the manufacturer of the original which was issued in 1915 after the sinking of the Lusitania and from the same dies on which the original issue was cast. These dies, accord ing to the story, were ordered de stroyed by the German government after but twenty eight medals had been struck off but were surreptiti- ously saved by Karl Guertz, who is reported to have been the designer The German government has several times denied that any Lusltanla medal was ever issued with cOnsen of any government officials.

 In preparatory work for the founda- ton for the international court o1 justice. the committee Is understood to have arrived at the opinion that it would be desirable to invite a number or eminent international jurists to give their opinions on the constitution of such a court, and has voted to take up the question in detail at some subsequent meetings. The action of the committee is said to indicate that the work of organizing such a court will be carried forward from the point where it was started by the United States at The Hague twelve years ago, when EIihu Root, then secre- tray of state, in his instructions to the American delegates charged them to work for the creation of an inter national court about twice the size in membership of the Supreme Court of the United States,

His offense Punishable by
Death, according to High
British Authority.

London, June 23.-The sinking Of
the German feet at Scapa Flow is
regarded by most editorial writers
here as a fresh example of German
faithlessness. 1t is contended that
the carrying out of Admiral Vor
Reuters order automatically annrls
the armistice and renders the ad-
miral liable to the death penalty.
Some newspapers demand that .le
allies exact fullest penalties, includ-
ing immediate payment Of $70,000.-
900 gold as the value of fhe fleet.
Sailors Shot by Officers.
Admiral Won Reuter-, in command
of the German fleet scuttled and
sunk in the Scapa Flow, will be
court martialed for having broken
the armistice conditions, says the
Daily Mail today.
The newspaper adds that the de-
tails of the trial will be arranged by
the allied council in Paris.
The German admiralty denies a
rumor in circulation today in Paris
and elsewhere that the Germans
had sunk the remainder of their
warships in German harbors.
Ihurse, Scotland, June 23.-Ger-
man sailors were shot by their own
officers when they attempted to obey
tie commands of the British officers
to return to their ships and shut the
scacocks. This statement was made
by Lieutenant Nuttall of the
steamer Alouette, who reached here
from Scapa Flow, where the German
sh:r. were sunk.

Search Clause in
Prohibition Bill

Washington, June 23.-The pro-
vision of the prohibition enforce
ment bill permitting search of
private homes for contraband liquor
when the warrant was sworn to by
at least two credible persons was
stricken out by the house judiciary
committee. The system of search
as provided in the espionage act
was substituted.
Under provisions of the enforce
ment act, tentatively modified i'll

ing liquors in automobiles aircrafts
or other vehicles would prove all
expensive undertaking if the owner
is caught. As the bill originally
stood. it stipulated that the vehicle
should be sold at public auction
and the difference between selling
price ,and the amount of the fines
and the costs should be refunded to

The committee charged the pro
vision to provide that any surplus
which might remain after the fines
and costs were paid should be given
