northern France from the Prus-
sian menace, but it must also de-
liver the peoples of Austria-
Hungary, the peoples of the Bal-
kans and the peoples of Turkey,
alike in Europe and in Asia,
from the impudent and alien
domination of the Prussian mil-
itary and commercial autocracy."
"We owe it, however, to our-
selves to say that we do not wish
in any way to impair or to re-
arrange the Austria-Hungarian
empire."
"We intend no wrong against
the German empire, no interfer-
ence with her internl affairs."
"The voices of humanity insist
that the war shall not end in vin-
dictive action of any kind; that no
nation or people shall be robbed
or punished because the irrespon-
sible rulers of a single country
have themselves done deep and
abominable wrong."
