DISPUTE A MENACE TO PEACE. (Sydney "Sun" Service. ) (Received September 21st, 7.23 p.m.) LONDON, September 20. "By its shilly-shallying policy towards Hungary's appeal against oppression and confiscation of her territory by Eumania, the League is putting Europe' peace in peril," declared the "Daily Mail" in a leader. "The League has no more than appealed. to the parties to agree. This is the way European wars are made. Europe's peace remains uncertain as long as Hungary's grievances are not redressed."
