PEACE MOVEMENT.
AUSTRIA’S PEACE FEELERS j ~ i A CONFESSION OF WEAKNESS NO PEACE WITH AN UNCONQUERED ENEMY. Received 8.55 a.m. NEW YORK, September 12 The New York Times’ Washington correspondent says official circles are suspicious of the motives of Count Burian’s peace conference suggestions to the Austrian journalists. Their opinion is that the most startling feature in the statement is the frank doubt it expresses of the impossibility of a German victory, when it is recalled what happened to Kuhlraann. Officials declare it is a confession of weakness which no German statesmen could make and retain his portfolio. Count Burian’s peace feeler will fall on deaf ears here. Members of the administration realise one of the greatest dangers to a just peace is the possibility that the Allies will be inveigled into a pre-mature peace parleys with an unconquered and arrogant enemy.
