CZAR STUMBLING BLOCK
IN WAY OF EARLY PEACE
Reviewing Situation Hungar
, ian Leader Says Neither
Side Ready to Quit
By Carl W. Ackerman,
(United Press Staff Correspondent.)
Berlin, Dec. 22. Hungary is willing
to pledge Russia that the Dardanelles
shall always bo open for Russiun com
merce, as a condition of pence.
Count Albert Apponyi, opposition
lender of tho Hungarian parliament, so
declared in an interview with the
United Tresa nt Budapest. His state
ment is important not only from the
fact that ho holds a dominant position
in Austro-lluiigariaii of fairs,, but be
cause he is likewise an international
penco leader.
"We can understand," he said,
"why Russia wants such assurances,
but I do not sco haw that can menace
our safety. Hungary wonts peace, but
a peace making it impossible to have
return of the conditions that caused
this war. That implies destruction of
Russian influence in tho Balkans which
has been used only aggressively for ex
pansion and conquest."
Apponyi believes Russia is a strumb
ling block in the path of an early peaco
and lie sees no prospects of an early
peace.
"Chancellor Von Hethmann-Hollwog
in his recent speech opened tiie way
for an expression from the allies of the
same good will he showed," Apponyi
continued. "Had tbey responded, a
common ground of discussion might
have been found, but I do not think
that the disposition of either side for
peace has ripened into a readiness to
discuss tie ubject. So we imit pre
pare for a longer war, but we feel mor
ally stronger for having given the
world tho understanding of what we
are ready to do in behalf of peace."
Apponyi expressed surprise at Am
erica's tone, in the Aucona note.
"If I had been nnsworing the Ameri
can note," he said, "I would have ask
ed the state department to amend its
stylo and language before I would have
replied. It's violent expressions were
not called for. Perhaps, though, For
eign Minister Burinn was wise in not

Holds Austrian Government
Responsible For Acts of
Its Commander
POINTS OF AMERICA'S
ANCONA REJOINDEE
By the Austrian admiralty's
own admission that its com
mander torpedoed the Anconn
after her engines stopped and
passengers were still aboard,
Austria violated International
law and "entirely disregarded"
humane principles which should
govern sea warfare, in Amer
ica's" view.
Details of the sinking, and
the matter of who perished, ns
sought by Austria, are hence
"in no way essential matters of
discussion."
The comninnder's culpability,
is in any case established.
Amorieans were put in jeopardy
by his lawless act.
The administration holds'
Austria does not question or
dispute .recognized internation
al law nor humane principles,
so the United States does not
feel called on to debato them.
America renews the de
mands of her orlglnnl noto and
"sincerely hopes" Austrin will
meet them In a spirit of frank
ness and with "the same con
cern for good relations" now
existing between the nations hi
which the United ftutes makes
the demands. .
Washington, Dec. 22. Crisply, terse
ly, America refused In her second note
to Austria, made public today, to argue
details of tho Aucona sinking. Instead
the administration renewed its previous
demands which failed for disavowal of
the torpedoing, for punishment of the
commander and reparation for lives
lost.
