BLAMES THE SLAVS
FOR THE WAR
VENICE, May 4—Count Julius An
drassey, the former Hungarian Minis
ter of the Interior, has written a book,
just published at Budapest entitled:
j “Who is responsible for the War."
The book has received official approv
al, and is to be published in German
at Leipslc and Berlin, and In Switzer
land in French. A version In Eng
lish will also be brought out. Count
Andrasay is at present at Leipsic su
perintending the publication,
j The Count argues in his book that
Slav aspirations brought about the
war, and that the Russian ambition
to possess the Dardanelles contribut
ed greatly to it. He asserts that
Austria and Germany had no Intention
in the beginning of territorial ag
grandizement, and urges them not to
think of it when final victory is won.
He thinks they should be satisfied with
monetary compensation, and that any
territorial additions to their boundar
ies would not look well or prove v>f
any great advantage.
