Not only in New York and Chicago, where the piece ran for a year and a half, were they enthusiastic over: the unusual qualities of this musical com- edy, but every city visited on its pres- ent trans-continental tour has agreed with the critics of the ‘east that it is the brightest, smartest and classiest show of its kind ever seen.

Economically, Germany is far better off than Austria. Crops have been poor, reserves of food are» low, and war taxes have ground the mass of the. Austro-Hungarian people down to more pronounced. Unrest and dis- population is certain if the war out- lasts the next four months. Will the people stand it, or will they revolt? That is the big question, and the question the house of Hapsburg most fears. Peace, or peace negotiations that would, drag.through the winter ‘months, alone promise security against a civil uprising. As understood here, Austria is at- tempting to win Germany's consent to undertake peace. negotiations early this fall. Germany, still confident of her ability to maintain a stalemate on land and to make, headway at sea, will consent to peace negotiations on terms that would make the war prac- tically a, draw. : But a draw for Germany means de- feat for the allies. For it means the German military: menace will remain, and the peace so reached would be but a breathing spell before another war. For this reason the United States and her allies cannot consent to un- dertake peace negotiations until they clearly have the upper hand militarily.
