There was no indication today when the German answer- would come, but that one would be dispatched was made more certain by the statements of Baron Burian, the Austrian foreign minis ter, before the foreign affairs commit tea of the Austrian parliament. Following closely ' the radical changes In the German government structure as recorded la cable dis patches from Amsterdam, and Rotter dam, information came to the stats department today that the Austrian mperor has announced to the foreign affairs committee of parliament his purpose to grant autonomy to the op pressed natlonaltlea in the dual em pire.

' - Barton Burian's statement to the foreign affaire committee that Ger many will make the constitutional modifications necessary to realise -the demand for a democratic form ot gov ernment and abdication of military control ,1a regarded aa clearly indi cating the Austrian purpose to. do like wise. Events are moving in the same direction in Turkey where the eultan has declared for a representative gov ernment that tbe conclusion la ir resistible that the whole program of constitutional reform now under way is the result ot an agreement between the three allies to meet one ot-tha Fresioenra conditions xor a cessation of hostlllUsB. . -. . .; i Looting la CurtaHedT . Baron Burlan's statement that Ger many will bs In a position to accept tha President's demands regarding tha humaniaatlon of the war appears to be borne out in a measure by reports from the battlefront in Belgium and northern Franoe that the Oermans are not looting and destroying private property aa heretofore. It thla la fol lowed by the abandonment ot subma rina attacks on merchant shipping, of ficiats feel that the principal obstacle In tha way ot an, adjustment will ba tound only In the arrangement, ot an armistice. -- .ft There la ho doubt that tha German will make a desperate effort to resist tha announced purpose of the Presi dent to leave the terms of an armistice to 'the' military commanders .of the American and allied forcea and it may be some time before they are sufficiently humbled In spirit te admit that it la not for them to dictate, but imply to accept such term as thsse military commanders may choose to impose. In fact Barton Burtan'a ad dress before the Austrian committee Is taken 'to indicate clearly that Gen. many desires to enter Into negotia tions on these points and win cling obstinately to its plan of a mixed com mission to deal wUh tha matter of evacuation. t BRUGES ENTERED BY THE v BELGIANS (Continued from page 1.)
