vote Of credit by delegations acabinet question,
as the project will encounter strong opposi-
ton. majority of the Hungarian delegates
think the credit is intended to be used for oc-

they consider, only justifable in the event that
Servia or Montenegro raise pretensions to those
provinces. Austria's Polish subjects are also

seems to be substantiated by the fact that the
war Office has not yet concentrated troops on
any point of Turkish territory.
