July 7, 1916
A Viennese dispatch to the New York Times reports that Prince Maximilian von Hohenberg, the 14-year-old son of the late Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria, has founded the "Youths' Association of Prayer for a Speedy and Favorable Peace." The association "has already 14,000 members."
Prince Maximilian's father, Archduke Franz Ferdinand, was the heir to the Austrian throne, when he and his morganatic wife, the Duchess of Hohenberg, were assassinated at Sarajevo in June 1914.
