ULLAR | SSIANS STILL HOLD | TREATY OF ALLIANGE Green Book Issued by Government Gives Reason for Action. Rome, May 19, 10:20 a. m., by way of Paris, May 20, 10:45 a. m.— Diplomatic documents which dis- closes each successive step in the ne- gotiations which resulted in Italy’s de- nunciation of her treaty of alliance with Austria and Germany are con- tained in the Green Book issued by the Italian government. The history of diplomatic , interchanges begins with a telegram sent by Foreign Min- ister Sonnino to the Duke of Avarna. Italian ambassador at Vienna, on De- cember 9,1914, instructing him to not- ify Count Von Berchtold, then Aus- trian foreign minister that’the Aus- trian advance in Serbia constituted a fact covered in article seven of the Triple Alliance treaty entitling ' Italy tq compensations. Count Von Berch- told replied that his opinion did not agree'with this view, but on December 20 intimated that he had begun change his mind. Baron Burian, who succeeded Count Von Berchtold, tried to evade any definite expression of the opinion. Duke of Avarna, on February 22 tel- egraphed that Austria evidently was trying to gain time, but that she un- doubtedly was being pressed by Ger- many. To Discuss Compensations. On March 9 ‘Austria. consented io discuss compensations. Foreign Min- ister Sonnino laid down the cardinal points of the Italian demands. Baron Burian aswered that Austria would not acept them. Prince Von Beulow, the German ambassador in Rome, on March 20 in the name of Germany guaranteed the execution, after the conclusion of peace, of any agreement made by Austria. Signor Sonnino to agreed to resume negotiations on the conditions that Vienna would make concrete proposals. Seven days later Baron K Burian asked Italy to give formal agreement to the following clauses: First, the maintenance of'benevo- Jent, politica] and economic neutrality throughout the war, Second, Austria to have a free hand in the Balkans. Third, the renunciation on the part of Italy of any further compensation, and fourth, the maintenance of the existing Italo-Austrian accord con- cerning Albania. Austria Offered Concessions, On April. 2, Baron Burian added that in exchange for these = pledges Austria would give to Italy the dis- tricts of Roveredo, Riva and Trentino, as well as a few villages. Signor Sonnino replied that he con- sidered these demands contemptible; nevertheless, ‘they ‘were permitted td stand. 136 9 7 Rome Asked Definite Answer.

On April 25 the duke of Avarna reported that:the, Austrian government: did ‘not believe . Italy would make war, and that consequent- ly Vienna regarded a continuance of the discussions as useless, On the receipt of this réport, Senor Sonnino, considering any accord im- possible, denounced the alliance with Austria-Hungary. He said that last summer Austria-Hungary, without reaching any agreement with Italy without giving Italy any notice what- ever—even disdaining the advice of Italy that moderation be observed— had sent to Serbia on July 23 an ulti- matum which was the cause of the present conflagration. Thus Austria- Hungary had disturbed the. status quo in the Balkans, creating a situation which was Of advantage to herself alone. Such a course of violence made benevolent neutrality impossible for the reason that Austria-Hungary was fighting to attain an object diametric- ally opposed to the vital interests of Italy, Her ally. Alliance Denounced May 4. Nevertheless, for a period of sev- eral months Italy endeavored to bring about a situation favorable to the re- 1 establishment of friendly relations be- tween the two countries, but these negotiations brought no practical re- sults. Consequently the alliance was denounced by the duke of Avarna on’ May 4. The duke on this occasion said 'Jtaly was confident of her rights and he affirmed to the Austro-Hun- garian government “That from this moment Italy resumes entire liberty ‘of action, declaring that her treaty with Austria-Hungary is hereby an- nulled and without effect.” .

Garrison Declares in Address Befors Arbitratien Confererce. Mohonk Lake, N. Y., May 20.—The which = has than problem of armaments, evoked more discussion any other question before the Lake Mo- | honk conference on international ar- bitration was brought to the front again today by an address of Secre- tary of War Garrison. The secretary’s topic was “The problem of national defense.” To deliver the address he made, a hasty trip from Washington, and de- parted right after speaking, so that he might reach Washington in time for the cabinet meeting to tomorrow. Consider Existing Condition. “I am- utterly out of sympathy,” Mr. Garrison declared, “with the idea that we should postpone consideration of what is now the existing condition be- cause of a hope or a belief, or even conviction that it may be altered, even radically altered, in the future. | “Our isolation,” he continued, “is geographical only. Modern condi- tions have caused the interests of na- tions to be as co-related as those of families who have intermarried. The interests of many of the large na- tions today are inextricably interwo- others. Prepared to Protect. “Self respect requires that should be prepared to protect which we cherish, which not only includes our material possessions, but | that intangible something which { which makes us a distinctive native in the teyes of the world.” ‘The roots of war,” were discussed in a paper by Oscar S. Straus of New York, formerly minister to Mr. Straus was unexpectedly called home yesterday, but his paper was read by the secretary. Great Curse of War, “One of the great curses of war,” he said, “is that it is settled by force, and what is settled by force is seldom, | if ever, settled justly. = And because such a settlement is not just it leaves behinr it the dragon tooth of future conflict. “A potent root of ‘war” he con- tinued, *“was that while the standards we ven with those of some or all of the | | of New York, editor of the Independ- | ent, and John B. Clark, professtor of that | Turkey. | | of morals within the several nations have advanced with civilization, reg- ulated by law, by equity and justice, international relationship has devel- oped under entirely different stan- dards, by expediency and by might. The result has been and is that thé standard of international right is not only on a lower scale but often in contradiction to the ideals of justice.” Other speakers were Hamilton Holt political economy in Columbia uni- versity.
