The statement declares that the members of the Czecho-Slovak army will be regarded and treated as traitors by Austria-Hungary. Ine statement which was forward ed by the way of Amsterdam says: "The form and contents of this la test declaration of the British gov ernment must be repudiated. The Czecho-Slovaks national council is a committee of private persons who have no, mandate from the Czecho slovak people and still less from the Czecho-Slovak 'nation which exists only -In the imagination of the en tente. - "In reference to the Czecho-Slovak army, it may constitute a part of the entente army, but it certainly cannot be an ally of the entente in the sense of international law. It is well known to us that only a slieht fraction of the self-styled Czecho-Slovak army are Austrian or even Hungarian citi zens of Slovak toneue. These disloyal elements, guilty of perjury, will, notwithstanding the en tente's recognition, be reearded and treated as traitors. It cannot be per mitted that the peoples who have al ways fulfilled their duties as Austrian and Hungarian citizens, and whose sons as members of the Austro-Hun-garian army fought bravely against the entente, shall be subjected to the suspicions cast upon them by such methods as employed bv the Britiih official declaration. The Austro-Hun- ganati government reserves its sten in mis regard. Northeast Iowa Crops Suffer From Heavy Rains DCS MOineS. AllC. 17 -Kneci'j I elegram.)
