APPONYI' REJOICES .AS COUNTRY GAINS Hungary’s Famous Statesman Gives Out Interview Budapest Hungary's July 2.—“1 worked for prosperity during my half- oentennial political career, 1 suffered with my people when the war znd the final catastrophe crushed us and now 1 rejoice to see the nation rising nobly again,” said Count Albert Ap- ponyi to The Associated Press co respondent in the garden of his quaint old palace in the Buda-hill overlooking the Danubs and the city bathed in the golden rays of the early morning sun. Count Apponyi recently celebrated his 75th birthday and the specis session of the national assembly, the gala performance at the opera house, the numerous banquets which were held in honor of the “grand old man" gave expression to the esteem in which he is held by the Magyars. “You ask me to look backward and up my experiences of the I * mused Count Appony’ stroking his long patriz beard. “Well, look here”—and pointed to the Danube and the city"—when 50 years ago 1 looked down from this same spot, I saw a lonesome river and one solitary bridge over it built by an Englishman from purely DPrit- ish-made material. Extept for a handful of one-storied houses only dunghills extended along the bank “Now look. Six new bridge home-mad> to the last nail—are thrown across a river loud with the traffic of steamboats. You see the dark outlines of our Gothic parli ment and the long rows of noble mansions, you hear the distant dron- Ing souncs, the bustling toil of million inhabitants. Here you have our history of the last century, which can hoast of a marvellous economic, technical, cultural progress of al- most American proportions. “Bui, alas, my pleasant recollec- tions e obscured by pictures of a gloomier hue.

We became but lately aware of sooial life not merely production and consumption, but much more a just distribution of gzoods produced and that 1 social legislation has to keep watch and eliminate the bad consequences of frce competition as well check the tyranny of the rich. I, at least, have been preach- ing and advocating for 30 years a liberal labor policy and the atis- taction of all labor claims which are somparable with efficient production. “The disastrous war and the more disastrous peace made my flourishing gountry a wreck.

The future will prove that universal inter ests will help Hungary to a higher po- sition than what was intended to be given to her by he peace treaty. Hun- will win, if not a leading , at least a strong position in Central Europe because one of the shaky new states will be found equal to fulfill the hitoric function of the former dual ronarchy which consisted in secur- ing peace, tranquility and in spread ing western ide: in this part df the world. Hungary though mutiliated will show herself fit for the task and will come to her own in the long run.” The correspondent ked Count Apponyi whether in the light of today Le had discovered any i blunder in the policy of the forme which, if realized and corr: proper time, would have given a dif- ferent course to events? “A pernicious mistake,” replied the Count, “was that Hungary's com- promise with Austria in 1867 no in- dependent army had been provided for Hun, Had the late King and Empress Francis Joseph followed my advice and granted a national army to Hun .

There never was an ‘oppression’ of them, there never wd anything ap- proaching the cruelty with which the Magyar minorities are now being treated according to the unbiased reports of the American Unitarian Church Mission or the mission of the British Presbyterian church. But we have blundered—and I am no excep- tion—in not observing the metamor- phosis of our nationalities from un- i into self-conscious national minoriti Had we observ- ed it we could have done more to ac- sept the consequences of the change we do ful justice to the claims of our preserved national minorities. “Althoush I consider the Treaty of Trianon the worst of all, yet I take the entire peace work for a sordid picce of statesmanship. No peace heen achieved and conditions have keen imposed on the vanquished which must prevent a sincere recon- ciliation. Whether this will lead to new convulsions or the treaties will lose their harshness in later practice, nobody can foretell.” COS MORE TO MARRY. Philadelphia Boosts Price of Neces- sary License.
