The Republican leaders who control the Legislature apeed to-d- that New York State Jiould share with tho Stato of New Jersey the cost of building a vehicular tunnel under tho Hudson River from Xew York city to Jersey. The cost will be limited to J6.000.000 for each Stte. and the New York Legislature mako an appropriation of $1,000,-M- O for starting the work immediately. Conferences on the tunnel were held y in the office of Speaker Thad-4U- 5 C. Sweet of tho Assembly. With Mm was Senator J. Henry Walters, President pro tern, of tho Senate; Sen- ator Henry M.

Prince Liohnow-sky- , former German Ambassador to Great Britain., gave tho following statement y to the Associated Press: \A peace of right and Justice, pro- vided it is not merely to be a phrao behind which a penco of violence con- ceals Itself, ns a pox Brltannica, can only be such a peace as neither en- slaves nor mutilates the conquered and which leaves him tho possibility of recuperating, of paying his debts and of entering with complete conn-donc- e Into the peaceful competition of a noclety of nations. A league of na- tions which has Its roots only in stat- utes and Is not in the hearts of peo- ples Is worthless. \Just as the confnierors hundreds of years ago treated France forbcarlngly and left In Its possession Its old borders, including oven German Alsace, which had earlier been taken away from us Just as forcibly as wo later took It back, so I believe there will bo left to u, es- pecially In thc east, our borders, which are Indlspentablo for politically and economically. \Not only ethnography but also geog- raphy should be taken Into consideration In establishing borders. The Poles and Czechs have no more right to our mixed language territories, which owe their prosperity alone to German organization and to tho German market, than we j have to all the German territories out- side the empire.
