TBy associated Pressl

WASHINGTON, ID. C.-Nith the am.
nouncement Ct the beginning of a
movement TO urge Congress at its
coming session to adopt a daylight
saving plan, comes news from Aus.
tria that the plan has proved success
full to the highest degree during the
last summer.
For the health of the people, accord
ing to the United States consul gen
eral, Albert Halstead, at Vienna, it

In the saving of lighting it also has
been most satisfactory. II is calcu-
lated that in Vienna alone the people
consumed $4,000 worth less of gas
while the city itself saved approx
mately $4,000 in gas from street
lighting.
Watches and clocks throughout Aus

pose was to secure additional sun

ing CT shorter days OF winter the
clocks were set back one hour at

The plan also has been in use in
several other European countries, in
Guiding France and Great Britain.

PANAMA. G. Following the in
auguration of President Valdes on Oc-
tober l the contest over his election,
in which the opposition endeavored to
the last to prevent his acceptance by
the United States government, APP
pears finally to have melted away.
There is, indeed, a general feeling of
relief that it is all over and there is
a very general tendency to give the
new president loyal support.
President Naldes has informed the
American minister that he intends to
push the investigation of the treasury
and customs scandals to a finish. He
appears also to be in sympathy with
the minister's suggestions that it is
important to have better system OF
accounting throughout the govern
ment, but he has not expressed any
willingness to have an outsider ap-
pointed to take charge of this work
and to act as either fiscal adviser or
auditor with plenipotentiary powers,
as urged by the state department.

tria-Hungary, through Ambassador
Penfield at Vienna, a request for ad-
ditional details regarding the attack
by an Austrian submarine upon the
