According to a report recently received at
the State Department, the criminal code Of
Austria includes an offense described as a
verbal injury" consisting of language re-
fiecting upon the conduct of officials, es-
pecially policemen, in the discharge of their
duties. The penalty for such an offense f.
Imprisonment for forty-eight hours on
bread and water. An American citizen re-
Gently visiting Vienna had a personal ex-
perience with this law. He had done some
thing which seemed to call for the inter
cession of the local rolice and in the course
of his conversation with the officer of the
law he expressed the opinion that he had
been treated in an Outrageous manner -
This remark was regarded as a verbal ill.,
jury under the law, and the perpetratcr
was subjected to forty-eight hours impris-
onment on a bread and water diet.
