BEFORE THE WAR Foreign Office Records of Austria-Hungary

The publication by .the Vienna Foreign Office of "Austria- Hungary's Foreign Politica from 1908 until 1914," in nine volumes, was decided on in April, 1926, under the Chancellorship of Dr. Ramek. After three years and a half of hard work the work has now been completed. The nine volumes contain some 7,144 pages, and the Issue in such a comparatively short time is considered in Vienna a re- cord in printing.

Perhaps an even greater feat is that of the four University Profes. sors of History, who examined all the official documents-Professor Hans Uebersberger, an expert on the history of the Near East, who went through the secret deeds and the documents in connection with Russia and the Balkans: Professor Alfred Francis Pribram, who dealt with Germany, Western Europe, and the States; the present Educa- tion Minster, Professor Heinrich Srbik, and. Professor Ludwig

Bittner.

Sixteen "White Crusaders" have been condemned to death at Voronesh, in Russia, for "avenging relatives shot by the Bolsheviks." Eighteen have been sentenced to imprisonment.
