President Wilson's address to congress early in January, in which he defined 14 conditions for, world-wide peace, has acted like a leaven in the political life of Austria-Hungary .and the con ditions are reverted to over and over again as a possible or concrete basis for negotiations, at appears from the discussions in German newspapers of the latter part of January, now re ceived here. The president's proposals also have received considerable attention in Germany. The papers there explain the favorable echo the proposals have evoked in Austria by stating that, the objectionable parts of the president's address do not apply to Austria as vi tally as they do to Germany. : Various members of the Austrian House of Deputies declared in the budget committee of that body that it was a mistake to reject the Wilson proposals coolly and contemptuously. A Polish deputy in a peace debate in the Austrian house of January 22 rejected the idea that Germany had saved Austria from defeat He said that without the aid of Austria, Bul garia and Turkey Germany would not have been able to fight off its enemies. togBwara uaw i mm vemraa 4l!lll!MllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllII' THE HOUSE OF MEMGH 1613 Farnam St. . announces Their Revue of Authentic Spring Fashions To B Held at Empress Jheatre March 11, 12 and 13 Monday; Tuesday and Wednesday Showing exact reproduc tions from the following French' houses: Callot Chervil Jenny Premet Paquin ; LanTin France Rolf Georgette Government Defends Geddes , , In Jeliicoe Affair London, Wednesday, March 6.
