NEARING PEACE.
. A HUNGARIAN'S BELIEF. Budapest, Nov. 14 Count Apponyi, Leader of the Opposi tion in Hungary, interviewed in Ber lin by a press correspondent, said:
''We are getting near peace, and I am sure it is on the way. I do not mean it will come next week or next month, but the foundations are being laid. The speeches of Viscount Grey and Herr von Bethmann-Hollweg show thit the two chief belligerents are getting closer. Although they are still wide apart, they are approaeh'ng common ground, and why not? This common ground is the desire of all rations who seek to have an international agreement which will ensure the world's peace in future. ?f such a guarantee can be arranged we shall not think the horrible bloodshed lias been in vain."
The correspondent asked: Does England want peace Count Apponyi: There are peace parties in all countries. I admit there is a strong war party in England and France.
The correspondent; Can Mr. Wilson do something now to bring the belligerents together? Count Apponyi: America, the greatest neutral, must play an important part in international peace, but I don't think tho psychological moment has arrived. Roumania must first be punished for her treason.
