Burian Replies to
Critics in 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 dafiantly today by
Baron Burian, Austro-Hungarian
Minister of Foreign Affairs.
' “1 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 hurhil
iated if they had offered territorial
concessions in order to hold Rou
mania’s friendship.
“l believe that the ¥lntente has
shown weakness rather than strength
by involving Roumania in the war,”
he continued. *“lf the enemy powers
had been strong they would not have
thoyght 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. 3 ‘
The Premier declared that the
complete unity in the ARies’ 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 Allies’
action.
“After Turkey,” said the Premier,
“Bulgaria will realize that it {s dan
gerous 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
eéncountered mo 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 satisfaction we de
sired. We hope the Greek people will
understand the reasons and the ob
jeet 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 éompromise the success
of operations undertaken by the Al
lies’ armies,
“Intervening in this manner, we
have not bHeen inspired solely to safe
guard our troops. We alse 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 {8 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 b the Ger-{
man Government officials.
That Ambassador Gerard will offi
clally 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, whichi
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 would be the end of
criticism of Ambassador Gerard.
