OF Austria, to Germanys efforts to
bring her ally in closer commercial
relationship. 1t is feared that econ
omic dependence will surely follow
military. For since the war began
many things have occurred which indi-
cate Germany's aim at bringing Aus
tr3a-Hungary under her commercial
subsection. Only short time ago the
big banks in Berlin sent circulars to
the principal Austrian investors in
the first and second Austrian wa
loans, offering to advance them ninety
per cent of the face value of their hold
ings provided they would use the mon
ey for investment IN the third loan
The Austrian banks were only advance
ing seventy-five per cent of the former
leans. Such incidents have created
much distrust in the Austrian capital,
and shown the necessity for exercis-
ing the utmost caution before entering
into any new kind of economic ar
rangements with Germany, which may
be fraught with the most serious con-
sequence for the future of the dual
monarchy.
Shoes have doubled in price in Vi
emma in the last few months, and this
largely through the wearing of the
short skirt, which calls for higher
footwear. 1t is not that raw material
is scarce at all; there is plenty of it
from OK, calf and goatskin, but tan
ming materials are hardly obtainable
al any price. Most of these come from
abroad but their import has been rend-
cred impossible by the war for some
time past. With the aid of these, Aus
TRAN tanners could convert hide into
leather in three weeks; the same pro-
esss now takes four months. Some of
these materials are now costing seven
times the ordinary price.
And this has led to a shortage in
the supply Of shoemakers leather
which has been further increased by
the women's demand for higher shoes,

hich take more leather. The conse-
quence is that prices have risen ire
mendously. Modern shoes of the cheap
est material formerly costing So now
cost from $12 to SIG, while Off better
shoes SIG and even $40 are asked.
Mems shoes have also gone in
price In the same proportion, although
in their case no change in fashion has
taken place.
Since a large quantity of tanners
materials has always been obtained
from Turkey, it is possible that now,
that communications have been reop-
ened with Constantinople, fresh sup
lilies may be obtained.
One of the most difficult of all social
problems, the care of the homeless,
has been solved in Vienna by the war
The number of these unfortunate per-
sons this winter is far less than in
many years. Indeed so great has been
the falling off in this class of mendi-
cants that in many districts of the
city the buildings erected for their &C
comodation have been converted into
military hospitals, and homes for ref
ugees from the Italian theatre of war.
The disappearance of these home
less persons is chiefly due to so many
of the men having been called to the
army, when their wives and families
are given relief pay placing them Of
ten in far better circumstances than
when their husbands were in work.
Then, too, the younger classes of the
homeless" who were formerly unable
to obtain work in the city in the win
ter, can now get employment easily.
The factories are constantly inquiring
at the night shelters for workers.
Then, too, homeless" families are
much fewer, because the landlords are
compelled to show more consideration
before eiecting tenants, and the fam
lilies of reservists are often better able
to pay the rent than in normal times
