COUNT DUMBA SEES
SECRETARY BRYAN
Rumor that Austria Will Try to Aid
in Settlement of the Lusi-
tania Incident.
TEUToEs KNOW U. S. RoUsED

WASHINGTON, May 17.--Dr.
Constantine Dumba, the Austrian
ambassador, had conference today
with Secretary Bryan and other State
officials. While the am
bassador would not discuss the OBJ
ject OF his call, the impression pro-
vailed In we'll informed circles that
he had endeavored to sound out feel
ing with a view toward assisting IL.
a peaceful settlement of the situa.
ton with Germany.
II is known that the Austrian am
bassador and Count Bernstorff. the
German ambassador, have been in
close consultation for several days,
and that Austria is watching with
deep interest the course of events be-
tween the United States and its ally,
throwing its influence in the direc-
ton Of preventing any rupture in
friendly relations.
The seriousness Of the sinking Of the
Lusitania, the intense feeling II has
aroused Ia the United states and the
countrywide support which has been
given to President wilson's note are facts
which both the Austrian and German
ambassadors are understood to have COM
munlcated to their respective govern
ments.
II was believed also that they had eau
toned extreme care for the present at
least. in the submarine warfare to avoid
any act which would further intensity
feeling In the United States.
That the United States stands firmly
on the absolute justice, both from a
legal ana humane point of view. of its
position. and therefore has nothing to
arbitrate. was the intimation which many
officials gave as the answer to sugges-
tons that Germany would offe rto arbi-
trate the questions raised in the Ameri.
can note.
The American government, Il was
pointed out. desires an absolute ac-
ceptance of the principle of its conten-
tons through some modus vivendl or
other arrangement. to be effective dur
Ing the present war, may be considered,
whereby the belligerents would agree TO
separate passenger and contraband traf-
fic, or to disarm merchant ships plying
to or from American ports. Any such
terms. It was stated. would have to be
made as between the belligerents.

contraband be ascertained submarine
would proceed In accordance with the
general rules of international law"
What England said after reading the
German reply. was:
THE reply Of the German government
to this note has been published and Il
r. not understood from the reply that
the German government is prepared to
abandon the practice OF sinking British
merchant vessels by submarines"
Conclusions Reached.
Officials here studied the note ana
came to the conclusion that Great Brit
ain meant TO indicate in It's answer that
II not only wanted Germany to give UP
attacks on merchantmen OF ali nationali-
ties. but also that no ships would be
confiscated unless certain of condsmna,-
ton as legal prizes. The United States
and Great Britain have In the past sano-
toned the destruction of prizes only In
cases OF military necessity ana when
passengers and crew were removed "a
places OF safety. That a compromise
might be arranged whereby the declara-
ton OF London's provisions permitting
the destruction of belligerent ships
carrying cargoes more than half of
which are contraband. was q suggestion
discussed to some extent today.
The texts OF the two notes were care
frlly studied by many officials and In
terested diplomats 20 determine whether.
in view of recent events. they would af-
ford a new approach TO the questions
now at issue. There Is a belief In well

AS one grows old their organs act
more slowly and less effectually than in
youth, circulation is poor, the blood
gets thin, the appetite poor and diges-
ton weak. Vinol, our delicious cod liver
and iron tonic, is the ideal strengthened
and body builder for old folks because
it creates a good healthy appetite,
strengthens digestion, enriches the
blood, improves circulation and in this
natural manner builds up, strengthens
and invigorates feeble, rundown, nerv-

AUTOMOBILES AND JAILS
VERSUS SCHOOLS

The following paragraphs from the
Waupaca County School Bulletin are
worthy of serious consideration in con-
nection with criticisms on the short
comings of the public school system.
eve venture the assertion that there
are school districts in which are owned
automobiles which cost the owner more
than the entire school plant of that
district is worth and that the automobile
costs as much for annual upkeep as the
entire annual expense of running the
school. Where such condition pre-
walls the public can not complain very
much of the expense Of education.
There are many counties in Wiscon-
sin where the county Jail, equipped
with bath, running water, electric
lights, vacuum cleaners, steam heat,
etc., are infinitely superior in comfort
and sanitation to the large majority of
school buildings in those counties. So
great is the difference in many cases
that it is small wonder people prefer
going to Jail to going to school. Ought
not conditions to be equalized little
more and the children given as good
as the Jail birds?"
We wish to add that the same condi-
tons prevail quite generally in Michi-
gan. The Legislature now in session
in Lansing can render the state dis
tinct service in passing laws that will
improve conditions in the schools as
far as health is concerned. The Govern
or's recommendation in his message to
the Legislature on this matter should
be carried out.

COST TO THE GOVERNMENT.

Writing on the question Of rev.

to temperance advocates. Daniel A
Polling, superintendent of the citi.

Endeavor society, aptly points out
that the fact that the voting out of the
saloon has never been responsible for
the raising of taxes anywhere sug.
gests the real answer to this ques,
ton. When the American govern.
ment," says Mr. Polling" once meas.
ures the almshouses. reformatories,
asylums for the insane and peniten.
tiaries for the criminals, and the in.
direct cost in impaired efficiency,
broken character and sterile homes,

its people this cup Of economical and
financial VICE."
