Wasiiington. July 31.?Tho Unitad
Sutaa is not p&rtteipating, at least eo
far aa the world know9 or officials will
ssy, in tho inter-Allied discussions re
lating to territorlal aettlementa as af
fectir.g peace terms. It was declared
authoritatively to-day that the speech
of British Foreign Minister Balfour be?
fore the British House of Commona
yeiterday did not commit tho United
Statea in the least degree, as America
ig not or.e of the Allies.
The position of tho United States
totrard tho settlement to ba rnado with
Aoatria, and poasible changea, political
as well aa territorlal, in the monarchy,
hare not been dtsclosed. Offlciala, asked
for statements, explaln that the Unltvi
Stata* ia at war only with Germany
and haa nothing to aay about Austria
Hungary, Turkey and Bulgaxia. It ia
known, however, that tha attitude of
thia country, aa offlcially aaserted, is
"unfriendly," an attitude which goes
fnrther than r.on-intercourse.
The Balfour speech waa a surprise to
Italian circlea, where, it was said, tho
Auatrian qoestion had been settled, in
the belief of ItaJians. The speech dis?
closed that r.otwithstanding frequent
assertior.s fraaj Italian sources the en?

"No Annexations" Pledge
Is Asked by "Vorwaerts"
German Socialist Newspaper Says Russia Would
Thus Be Enabled to Make Separate Peace?
Michaelis Asked to Act
Copenhagen, July 81. ? Ever since |
tho Russian revolution the Berlin So
ctalist newspaper "Vorwarts" has stead- i
ily argued against attempts to effect
? separate peace with Russia. Now, I
however, the journal has swung around j
and is advocating the separate peace i
idea, although in modified form. It'
suggests to the government tho nego
tiation of a treaty with Russia em
bodying an explicit declaration that
Germany, regardless of the outcome of
the war, would refrain from any in
fringement, of the territories or rights
of Russia's Western allies. On the
strength of this, "Vorwarts" contends,
Russia could declare herself bound
only by n dcfensive alliance and aban
don the war.
The Socialist organ recognizes tha
weak point in its suggestion, it is evl
dent, by making a somewhat half
hearted appeal to Chancellor Michaelis
to come forward with the indispensable I
declaration to fit this case?an unambig- i
uous renunciation of desire to infringe ,'
upon the territories or rights of the
Western powers, making it in the form
of a public statement if its einbodiment
in a formal treaty is too much to hope !
for. *
Skepticism regarding Chancellor i
Michaelis's attitude on annexation i? I
nlso Bharadj by Theodor Wolff, of the
"Tageblaa," who declares the Chan
cellor's speech to the newspaper men
left the impression that he was trying
to urge tho Reichstag to abandon the
ground taken in the peaco resolutlon as
? mistaken stand under the conditions
actually prevailing. Ilerr Wolff points j
to three powerful forces working I
against tho resolution?namely, the im- |
potency of the Reichstag to enforce its
will, tho possibilities of annexations
indicated in the phrase "security of
frontiers" and the constant reiteration
by a large section of the German press
that the new Chancellor has no thought
of a peace without annexations.
Count von Reventlow in his editorlal
in the "Tageszeitung" drops the sub- i
ject of peace and calls upon Chancellor1
Michaelis to instil proper respect for
Germany among neutrals, mentioning
Holland in partlcular.

tag, given to a Zurich editor last week,
when the Deputy was quoted as saying
that if he could talk to Premier Lloyd
George and Foreign Secretary Balfour
ho could rcach an unierstanJing re
garding peace in a few hours, the "Vos
sische Zeitung" says:
"We desire to proteat mo3t stren
uously against having the impression
go abroad that the Erzberger state
ments are aymptomatic of German
sentiment. We especially protest
aguin.-t such utterances being made at
u time when the wellnigh deserted For?
eign Ofhce is prevented from promptly
and thoroughly disowning Erzberger's
politics.
"Or is it possible that an impression
ehould be created abroad that Erz?
berger is but foreshadowing the com
ing policies of Wilhelmstrasse? We i
positively decline even to think there
is such a possibility.
"An understanding with England aa
it presents itself to Erzberger's vision
is impossible. That would mean a
German surrender to English dictator
ship. A real understanding mustvouch
safe independence for continental^
Europe from England instead of seal
ing English infiuence on continental
afi'airs. The latter, however, would
happen if, in view of tho trend of
English politics with which we are
more than familiar, Erzberger, the hero
of Rome, were sent to London as a
go-between.'
Tho "Kleinea Journal" aays:
"We do not believe that Herr Erz?
berger would assume the responsibillty
for such a weighty utterance without |
adequato ground. He has been per- |
mitted to look behind the political and
military acenes, knows tne state of |
affairs and is quite familiar with the '
manner in which tho government ar.d
military leadera adjudge it. He, too, j
has read the declarationa made by the ]
leaders of the hostile governments in
reply to the statement of our war alms,
and he now insists that In the course
of a two-hour interview with Premier
Lloyd George the basis for a peace
understanding could be reached.
"The gravity of Erzberger's a?ertion
seems not to have been duly appre
ciated. His utterance, in fact, was of
far more importance than was his sen
sational speech at the session of the
Main Committee of the Reichstag.
Whnt Erzberger will now have to admit
is that he is pledged to revenl the path
to peaco which he has in mind ond
which we havo been made to believe
is so simple. This is specially ao in
view of the fact that the private con
fab with Premier Ll6*yd George is not
likelyto take place. Why thir, mystical
rhetoric instead of aound fncts?"

Greece and Italy
End Differences
At Balkan Parley
Rome Sees Witdom of Pol
icy of Compromise at
Paris Conference
Both Sides Pleased
Allies Intend to Support
Venizelos Now That He
Is in Power
By ARTHUR S. DRAPER
London, July 31.?The recent Balkan
conference in Paris showed how great
has been the change in relations in the
last six months between Italy and
Greece. For a long time Italy hlocked
all Entonte efforts for an orrangement
with Venizelcs, because Rome cons'.d
ered the Grecian claim to Northern
Epirus as incompatible with Italy's
vital interests. At the Paris confer
enco France, Great Britain and Italy
decided as soon as possible to end their
military occupation of old Greece,
Thessaly and Epirus. This action
brought satisfaction to Italy as well as
Greece, and indicates that tho Allies,
now that they have selected Veniielos
as constitutional governor, intend to
support hira in every way.
It is certain that Greece and Italy
will come to an agreement during the
course of the negotiations for the ap
polntment of a Greek cor^missloner to
take over the adminlstt?tlon of the
triangle formed by the Santi Quarantl
road and the Epirus irontler. Briefiy,
Italy has made considerable coneessions
to Venizelos, who has never oeen hostile
to Italy, althougn he has Deen con
sidered so by Rome. Last wdnter Veni?
zelos said: "For >is the possession of
Northern Epirus is a moral question
and one of patriotic sentiment. Del
vino, Argurokastro and Koritsa have
always been among the foremost cen
tres of Hellenic civlilzation."
From a political viewpoint the Paris
conference showed Italy is no longer
in a position to make iemands which
embarrass the other Allies, or, put less
bluntly, sho sees the wisdom of follow
ing a course of compromise in the Bal
Militarily, there ls little change in
the Maeedonian situation. By the with
drawal of troops from old Greece Brit?
ain will be able to strengthen her
forccs at Salonica and make that the
real base, obvi.iting the necesslty of
shuntir.g soldiers and supplies to a
country whero they e::ert no pressure
against a real enemy. France is in the
same position.
Sarrail now has a larger force and
less worry over questions of transpor
talion, but whether a vigorotts offensive
will be undertaken ln Macedonia or
whether the forces gradually will be
withdrawn for use in Mesopotamia or
on the West front are questions which
the future must nr.swer. There are no
signs of withdrswal to date. According
to tha beat information I can gather,
the Greek trooDs never made a material
difTercnce in the Maeedonian situation.

Mexico Won't Enter War
Attache at Berlin Says Neutrality
Is Not Dependent on Loan
Berlin, July 30 | via London, Julv
811.?Dr. fjttl, an attache oftheMexl
can Ltgation in Berlin. to-day deni?d
the rumor clreu'ated here recently thnt
Mexico had declarod a willingness to
join the Entente powers if the United
tita'.es granted hor a loan in a sum to
be determined later.
Dr. Ortiz asserted that such state
ments were at variance with the neu
trality observed by Mexico in the
course of the last three years. He
added that Mexico did not determin
her war attitude on a flnancial basis.
It waa also polnted out in political
circlca here that the rumor was dis- i
credited by statements made by Henry ;
P. Fletcher, the American Ambassador
to Mexico, while in Washington, to tho
effect that Mexico hud announced she
would not espouse either cause.

Consul Glaiebrook said that about
slxty American missionaries and ninety
American Jews left at the same time.
"We were everywhere well treated by
the Turkish and Austrian authorities
during the Journey," said he. "We I
had to provide our own provlsions.
Naturally, everything is dear in Tur?

No complainU were made to me.
"There are now in Palestine about
500 Jewlsh-Amerlcan c"izens. All o/ '?

Many causes have been found to oon
