SAYS EVERONE IN GERMANY WANTS PEACE Count Michael Karolyi, Leader of the Hungarian Independent Party. Amsterdam. July 13.—Count _Mi- chael Karolyi, leader of the Hun- garian Independent party, speaking in the house of deputies, according to a telesram from Budapest, declared: “The central point of the present German crisis Is the question of peace. Everyone in Germany wants peace, but it is not enough to desire it, the nation must negotiate for it. Count Czernin (Austro-Hungarian for- eizn minister) has not confined him- self to mere words but has openly de- clared that we are ready for peace without annexations. On of the pre- requisite conditions of peace is the democratization of every country.” In a continuation of the debate Bar- on Julus Beck said: “There is no war policy today but only a peace policy. The peace must be honorable, guaranteeing Hungary’s frontiers and her political independ- ence.” Count Moritz Esterhazry, the pre- mier, replying to Baron Beck. said that the new Hungarian government stands for the continuance of the al- liance between the dual monarchy and Germany, as did the zovernment which it _succeeded. “We cling fast to the brillantly test- ed alliance of the monarchy with Germany,” said the premier. “The government identifies itself in this re- spect fully with the standpoint of the previous government. “We are waging this war as a fensive war. _Our peace aim Is conquest. We do not leave our emics in doubt about this. On contrarv, we testified clearly before the whole world our readiness for peace.” THOUSANDS OF ELKS VISIT LAWRENCE AND LOWELL.
