Washington, May 22.-Postmaster
General Payne last night, discussing
the deficiency in the free delivery ser
vice, said:
ct is very reprehensible for abureau
officer to have a deficit of 100000
rolled up on the first of May. 1t was
a bad, very bad administration. A
bureau officer should not have deficit
without consulting his superior officer.
Positively, cannot stand for that
kind of administration and l do not
approve of it. An official must be held
to more strict accounting. l do not
say there was anything criminal or
anything wrong in Machen's action,
but it was certainly a loose administTa-
tion and he should have had his bus
mess more in hand. l believe, how
ever, congress will quickly vote the
money to cover the deficiency"
Mr.. Payne said that Machen, the
general superintendent would be given
an opportunity to be heard or the sub
ject. Postmaster General Payne was
asked a number of questions as TO the
effect of the discovery of the deficiency
on the status of Machen but parTied
all questions. He said the matter
would be looked into and cOmmunica-
ton might be sent later 10 Machen
asking for an explanation of the con-
ditiOn of affairs. The deficiency ag-
gregated 1927, 300, of which $1O5,7OO

Primarily Due TO Long Standing
Race Hatred of SlaVs and Magyars

Vienna, May 22.-The revolt in Gro
alta is spreading to every part of the
Litular kingdom and threatens to eX-
tend to Dalmatia.
Celebrations at Amgram of the an
niversary OF Jellacihich Won BruZim,
formerly ban of Croatia, eliminated
in a fierce conflict with the police,
who attacked the crowds with sabres,
wOunding many persons and making
$50 arrests, including several students
anu women. The city of Agram is
now completely under military rule.
The principal streets are closed by a
Gordon of troops. -Four regiments,
fully equipped for war, have been
ordered TO proceed from Oedenburg TO
the Agram district.
At Buccari and Meja thousands Of
peasants attempted to destroy the
railroad in order to prevent the arrival
of the troops. They tore up the rails
at five different points and when the
military arrived the peasants stoned
them, injuring several soldiers. The
troops retaliated by shooting many
peasants.
The disturbances in Croatia are pri-
marily due TO the long standing race
hatred between the slavs and mag
vars. In the coast districts the
hatred OF the public officials has
caused the outbreak.
