EMBASSY DEFENDS GERMANY | i a 2 ee eM CALLS ITALY SIDESTEPPER | ROME, Aug. 6—Astonishment was expressed at the Ger- | man embassy here today that anyone should consider Germany the aggressor In the present European war. ‘ Such a view, It was declared, is based on a purely super- ficial glance at the situation, The average man, it w admitted, might honestly draw a | wrong conclusion from th ot that the ser took the initia- tive in declaning hostilities. It was plainly hinted, however, that the Italian government knew better and persisted in hold- | | ing Germany and Austria responsible for the conflict, not be- | cause It really considered them 80, but because it wanted to escape its treaty obligation of aiding them when they were | attacked. The world should take into consideration, it is argued, that Rus | sia, toward whose people both Germans and Austrians have the friend Hest feelings, has nevertheless one of the worst government on earth. | The point was made that this {s recognized in all civilized coun. tries Italy, France, England and the United tSates. If the people of any of these lands, Germany's partisans assert, | feel themselves in danger of being made the czar's. subjects, they would | fight to the death against it, And the czar has such designs against! Germany and Austria, it is asserted, the necessities of life. ia i | FREDERICKe-NELSON, «2% Interesting Neckwear Values at 50c Initialed Crepe Gowns $1.00 HE sketch NECKWEAR offering ual T hows a new interest, embracing a large a white Crepe Gown, ment of Hand-made pieces, among them with machine-em Guimpes, Vestees, Gladstone ( ‘ broidered wreath Cut et design in pink or eparate blue surrounding ered on initial Finished trimmed with embroidery crocheted buttons veining and bind Aitedetive Value at $0 pea ae? ing ot pink or blue wash ribbon At . “1° —* value at Men’s White Shirts p. can 9 M N’S WHITE SHIRTS in plaited Firet Floor : and stiff-bosom sty large sizes, BOYS’ CLOTHING AND | ae cisee chai 60s FURNISHINGS Men’s Straw Hats, 50c aupmanedi | —Men's Furnishings Section, First Floor.
