PEACEFUL ISSUE POSSIBLE
VIENNA, May l.-Vla London.) Ac
cording to the prevalent Impression here
no definite Indications regarding the de
clrion reached by the Italian cabinet as
to Italy's future course har been re
ceived by the Austro-IIungarlan govern
ment.
The Salandra mlntstry may decide in
favor of a peaceful settlement Instead of
war' under any or all clrcumatancs but
this . hope Is believed to be too sIlarM to
justify any optimism.
The Auatro-HungarUn government has
rone o far In the way of territorial con
cessions that a peaceful settlement seems.
even lo outsiders, to be quite possible If
Italy I so minded, but the question at
issue appears to be not so much whore
leal for the sstlsfactlon of Italian terri
torial aspirations can b found a whether
tli Italian government already has de
termined to enter the war on th aid of
the alllea against Austria-Hungary and
Ovrmany. .
Cefeeaaloa Ureat.
"Our concasslous." said high ofiicial
today, "are great far greater than most
people imagine."
The statement of Count Tissea. th
Hungarian premier, and Count Andiassy
in the Hungarian Parliament wer In
tended to assure Italian patriots that the
offer was mad In the beat faltn and
was In no sense an "Indian" gift. What
confidence exist In Vienna la based on
the belief the Salandra cabinet, a the
ministry possessing the confidence ef the
wer party. Is th only ministry strong
eaough to enter Into negotiations with
Austria-Hungary and maintain peace at
t'omo.
Teesile Are falsa.
The people, like the government, ar
lacing th situation with th utmost
rMmnees, even approaching nonchalance.
They seem to ft that they have tried
everything possible to satisfy Italian as
rlratlona and avoid war. and that the
rest is la the heads of fate.
Th Austro-Italtan frontier, extremely
strong by nature, baa been converted Into
a vast field fortress which Auatrtana
prophesy will prove a far harder nut to
crack than Is Imagined. The Carpet Mane

MOHONK LAKE. May 19. Dr.
John Greer HIbben, president of
Princeton nnlvemlty, stirred thfl
Lake Mohonk conference on Interna
tional arbitration today hy taking Is
sue with pacificists who favor dis
armament and hy advocating "a wise
preparedness of our military forces
In tbe United States."
"I do not advocate preparedness
for war," be said, "but a prepared
ness' against war a preparedness
which In the event of. the catastrophe
of war itself, will prevent tN enor

whlcb has characterized every war In
which the United State have been
engaged. '
"No one can be so blind regarding the
significance of present condition as to
take the position that a grave national
emergency I not at least a possibility."
Without naming any of the belligerents.
Vr. Hibben asserted that one fallacy
tending to obstruct the progress of peace
was that "this present terrible war has
developed certain practices and usage
which will revolutionise the accepted re
striction of Internetkinal law. so that
hereafter all immemorial obligations of
nation to nation In a state of war will
be swept away.
Kmerseacr May Be Mear.
"In the high tension of International
hate and suspicion, the most Insignificant
accident may chance to precipitate for
a national calamity. And In this
great emergency. If it should conw, what
will we say? Peace? Teacc at any
price'
"By all means let us pay any price
which can buy peace restraint of pas
sion, long sufferance, sacrifice of ma
terial wealth, of every personal conveni
ence and comfort. Let us sacrifice It all.
everything which can buy peace. But.
let us not forget that there are some
things which cannot buy peace. If wo
sacrifice them in order to secure peace,
peace thus sought becomes for us the
veriest torment of a living hell. We dars
not trade honor for peace.
cver in the twenty-one year of !t
