VIENNA, March 34—Rumors that Czechoslovak troops have been con- centrated on the Austrian frontler have caused a panicky feeling here, in view of the Internal political condi- tions in the Austrian republic. This feeling persists in spite of the fact that reports regarding the gathering of Czeol troops have been partimlly denfed by newspaper advices. It s assertod {n certain clrcles that the military activtiy of Czechoslova- kia is due to the marked recrudes- cence of the movement for fusion Wwith Germany since the unsatisfac- tory result of Chancellor Mayr's London mission has become known. The greater German party is known to be planning an Interpellation in the national assembly after Iuster. and it s expetced it will take the form of a motion for the passike of necessary legislation for an imme- diate referendum, and a resolution notifylng the league of nations that Austria is compelled to work out her own salvation through Germany. Crisis May Be Foreced. It is understood that social democrats will support the greater German party in this action, and, as the two organiza- tions constitute a’ majority in the na- tional assembly, such a program, if car- ried out, may force a vote of confidence, which may possibly result in a minis- terial crisis. During the past week there has been a rumor widely current in this city that the present government would not last long after Easter. The political situa- tion is affected by economic conditions. Since January 1 the cost of living, as shown by government figures, has in- creased 50 per cent, 28 per cent of which advance has been made since February 1. This situation has resulted in wide- spread discontent on the part of the people over the failure of the govern- ment to effect.a promised reduction in prices and fight further increases. Action Is Pressed. In discussing the situation the Vienna Zeitung Am Mittag says: “It is un- necessary to convince us of the futility of the chancellor's visit to London be- fore proceeding to a vote on fusion with Germany. Now that we know where we are, it must be postponed no longer." In the meantime Tyrol and Salzburg are completing the machinery for a “sentimental plebiscite” on fusion, which will be held on April 24. Orders from the federal government and the entente that such a plebiscite should not be held are being ignored. FAHEY ASSERTS NATIONS ARE INTERDEPENDENT CHICAGO, March 2¢.—John H. Fahey of - Boston, director of the United States Chamber of Commerce and of the International Chamber of Com- merce, addressed the Chicago Asso- ciation of Commerce, emphasizing the “world-wide interdependence” of all nations, and discrediting any policy of isolation by any nation of the world. “The operation of the commerce lanes of the world,” said Mr. Fahey, “is the prime factor in all human progress. Its effects are felt by every nation, great and small. “The fact that after two years of reconstruction. this great country of ours, rich In_capital. men and re- sources, is suffering from the effects | of widespread unemployment and business disturbances is bringing to the attention of the man in the street the belief that the prosperity of the United States is without a firm foun- dation, except when there is a steady demand on us for foreign markets. No nation can isolate itself.” GIVEN PRICELESS RAIBOLINI PANEL BY HOMELESS MAN HE BEFRIENDED NEW YORK, March 34,—The paini- ing diseovered in an East Side eafe here by Capt.

Auberlet, who had been in jail about a week in default of $5.000 bail, Judge Johnson said: “*Abso- lutely no evidence has been introduced to show that this woman had any con- nection with the theft.” Mr. McFadden testificd at the hearing that Mme. Auberlet told him Mrs. Mc- er mother, Mrs. Benjamin ranklyn Clyde, planned the theft in order to get money for the former to go to France, “to make herself attractive to a grand duke.” He said she repeated the=e statements at five separate inter- views, and intimated she ought to re- celve $50,000 “to save the family honor."” The Gift Ideal for “HER” Easter “Peerless” Perles color.
