WILSON’S SPEECH.

HUNGARIAN VIEW. Australian and N.Z. Cable Association.) AMSTERDAM, January 25. Count Tiza, alluding in the Hungarian House of Deputies to President Wilson’s speech, said the Central Powers sympathised with any effort to re-establish peace, therefore, they were inclined to continue to exchange peace thoughts with the American Government. Hie Entente aimed at dividing Austria and Turkey, proving that the Entente was the real obstacle to peace. The Entente’s war aims showed that the Entente wanted peace with conquest, making an unoridgeabl© gulf between the Central Powers’ and the Entente’s viewpoints. He added that the existence of the Austro-Hungarian Government offered the best guarantee for the free development of the principle of nationality in south-eastern Europe.
