T OF SELF Kllitl DETERMINATION Dr. Karl Renner Pleads for Leniency to Peace Delegation New Repub lic Has No Connection With Haos burg Regime Starvation Onlv Pre 'vented Bv Hoover's Aid. ST. GERMAIN, Monday, Juno 2. Upon receiving the treaty from the . allies here today, Dr, Karl Renner, chairman of the Austrian delegation, outlined briefly., the history of the' establishment of the German-Aus trian republic and declared it had no relation with the former Haps- . burg empire. -. 'For a long time the people of German-Austria were watting In dis tress tor this present day to come, which shall relieve the tension caus ed by tbe uncertainty as ' to that people's future state," he Bald.. "The , Danube monarchy against which the allied and associated powers, have' waged war and with which they ' have concluded an armistice, has. ceased to exist. The 12th of Novem ber, 1918, may be considered the day , of its death. From this day on there was no monarch, nor a big power ' . over which he could hoM his sway. There was no more the fatal dualism, neither an Austrian nor a Hungarian ' government; no army or any other recognized instlfw"oa vested with public power. -'"There remained otflv eleht na tionalities deprived .ot. any public or-.-ganlzation, and ov;r sight they created their own parliaments,' their own government aud r their own armies; in short, their own inde pendent states.. In the same way as- the other national states; our new republic, too, has sprung intoi.llte. ' Consequently she can no more than , the former-be considered sucessor of the late monarchy. From this very point arises the fundamental contra- ' diction under which we are laboring and which is waiting to be cleared before this high assembly. . Never Declared War . ' . "The German - Austrian republic, -in its present shape, has never do- . clared war. never carried on a. war and, in relation to the , western , powers, never had the position of a warring power from an international point ot view. "We are before you as one of the parts of the vanquished and fallen -c empire. We ssume our portion ot - : the liabilities growing out of these, our relations to the allied powers, ,7 and we are well aware ot the fact-,,. that our fate Is resting In your hands. v - "We hope and believe that the. . conscience ot the world shall not deny to our people nor cuVtall the inalienable right ot selt-determma- .;, Hon, which the associated ' powers . ; have always proclaimed to be the ... very aim of their war waged against the Hapsburg and the Hohenzollern -monarchies, a right which our peo ple, confiding in the principles re:-, ognized by the allied powers, have adopted as a fundamental basis of -their new constitution. , Appeals to World ' ; "We trust that the world's com mon sense will not have in view nor will permit our economic ruin. Tho destruction of the economic unit ot the monarchy, ho separation of our mountainous country from , all Its national resources has condemned - us, these last six months, to priva tions which are by far exceeding the sufferings endured in war time. - It : was only due to the generous relief action organized by Mr. Hoover, on resolutions passed by the allied powers, that we have been saved from downright starvation."
