Thursday creclnred they had not been

Burian Replies to
Criticspin Austria‘
(By International News Service.)
VIENNA (via Berlin), Sept. 14—
Criticism of the Government result
ing from the participation of Rouma
nia in the war on the side of the En
tente was answered defiantly today by
Baron Burian, Austro-Hungarian
Minister of Forelgn Affairs.
“l would welcome an investigation
of the Roumanian situation,” was the
answer he made to critics.
The Baron declared that the cen
tral powers would have been humil
iated if they had offered territorial
concessions In order to hold Rou
mania’s friendship,
“I believe that the Entente has
shown weakness rather than strength
by involving Roumania in the war,”
he continued. “If the enemy powers
had been strong they would not have
thought the assistance of Roumania
necessary. Roumania will be quickly
dealt with after it has been crushed.”

PARIS, Sept. 14—Premier Briand
today delivered before the French
Chamber of Deputies his anxiously
awaited speech reviewing the war,
and aroused tumultuous cheers when
he predicted a complete victory for
the Allies and the overthrow of the
Central Powers.
The Premier declared that the
complete unity in the Afies’ aims
and operations had assured a final
Teutonic defeat and a lasting peace.
Considerable time was devoted by
the Premier to a discussion of the
Balkan situation, after he had de
clared that the intervention of Rou
mania in the war and Italy’s declara
tion of war against Germany had
completed the solidarity of the Allles’
action.
“After Turkey,” sald the Premier,
“Bulgaria will realize that it is dan-
Eerous for a country to desert her
traditional friendships in order to
subordinate herself to the selfish
schemes of an unscrupulous nation.
. “The invasion of Greek Macedonia
encountered no serious resistance
from Greece. The behavior in this
country of agents of German corrup
tion and espionage led the Allies to
take or demand measures indispen
sable to the security of their troops.
“The Zaimis Government, to whose
loyalty it.is just to pay homage, ac
corded us the first satistaction we de
sired. We hope the Greek people will
understand the reasons and the ob-
Ject of our intervention. We were
called to Saloniki to contribute to the
defense of Serbia, Greece’'s ally. We
shall pursue to the end the task for
which she asked our help.
“We can not allow conditions or
the tactics of the enemy or his ac
complices to compromise the success
of operations undertaken by the Al
lies’ armies,
“Intervening in this manner, we
have not been inspired solely to safe
guard our troops. We also had
Greece’s own interests in view. We,
in the end, will safeguard Greek ter
ritory and furnish the Greek people
indispensable help to preserve her in
dependence, which is menaced by the
greed of our enemies, who also are
hers.”

WASHINGTON, Sept. 14.—Official
action of Secretary of State Lansing
will be taken to learn the cause of
the continuous criticism by German
newspapers of Ambassador Gerard in
Berlin, State Department officials’
stated today. With the Ambassador
again being charged with having
made improper statements concern
ing the German Government’s sub
marine policy, Secretary Lansing is
determined to find out the cause.
When an explanation is forthcom
ing from Ambassador Gerard, a mem
orandum is expected to be sent to
the German Government as an inti
mation that further criticism of the
American Ambassador is very unde
sirable, inasmuch as under the pres
ent censorship rules no German
newspaper is permitted to publish
any article not approved bi{{ the Ger
man Government officials.
| That Ambassador Gerard will offi
cially deny to Secretary Lansing that
he ever made statements now attrib
‘uted to him is not doubted here.
- In the former attack on the Am
bassador by some of the most in
fluential German newspapers, which
quoted him as strongly advocating an
early peace, the. Ambassador flatly
denied that he had made any such
statements whatever. His denial was
sent back to Berlin to the German
Foreign Office without comment by
Secretary Lansing. Official circles
‘here . felt that wauld be the end of
criticism of Ambassador Gerard.

nearly $2,000 in notes taken in the
Westminster robbery.
Shortall, according to word re
ceived by officials here, declares that
he knows nothing of the robbery, and
simply worked for Flannigan. The
latter refuses to make a statement,
