Austrian Premier
For Disarmament
And Arbitration

AMSTERDAM. Sept. 26-The lower
house of the Reichsrst reassembled
Tuesday, according to Vienna dis
patches. The Premier, DR.. Won Seyd-
Ter, in introducing the new members Of
The Cabinet, expounded the government
programme, which, he said. would deal
in the first place with social and eco
nomic matters, the most urgent Of
which was food. He announced that
steps had been taken to convert the
Food Department into a Ministry Of
Food.
After promising TO submit TO the
constitutional committee government
proposals for the reform Of the consti-
tuition, aiming at equality OF all ma
tionalities on 3 basis Of national au-
tonomy, while preserving the unity Of
the state, the Premier turned TO the
foreign policy, declaring that "the basis
Of this. as heretofore, is Loyalty toward
our allies" and warned those who
thought they could serve peace by carp
ing criticism of the alliances between
the Central Powers that they merely
encouraged the enemy and thereby pro-
longed the war.
Abiding to the Papal note. he said:
1--WE believe that agreements can be
attained which. under proper guaran-
tees. might enable ornaments to be
gradually and simultaneously reduced
among other things by the introduc
ton on this basis of obligatory arbitra-
ton for international disputes.
"Our readiness to arrive at an agree
ment with our enemies ON these bases
Is absolutely serious and secure and is
inspired by the consciousness Of our
strength. But IL our enemies ar not
prepared to take the proffered hand We
will continue our defensive war to the
utmost.
believing that q strong Austria, in
surfing contentment of all races. IL the
best guarantee Of a lasting peace, we
are striving to reform the constitution,
and the government resolutely con-

tain parties that Austris's salvation 10
to be hoped for from Austria's enc

Censorship Will Not Be
Political, Says Burleson

son that the Socialist party and Social
list papers built practically their "hole
creed at the present time on the cnaIse
that America went into the war NJ tne
behest Of Wall Street and the NUM-
tons manufacturers.
"May It not become necessary 20 take
up the Socialists from special point OF
view 7" he was asked.
mo" replied Mr.. Burleson, energeti-
cally. Nothing Of the sort. We wont
look at any man or any paper with the
thought In our minds that he belongs
TO the Socialist or any other political
party. The whole question is the limit
he attempts TO 20 to in his criticism.
He can say anything rs wants 20 within
the limits | have marked out. But he
can't overstep that limit one icch.'
The practical working of the censor
ship was an interesting question here
to-day. At the Postoffice Department 1t
was carefully explained that the de-
partmeht's authority merely had been
extended. Under the espionage law the
department could withdraw the second
class mail privileges from publication
or could declare il non-mailable. Under
the new law, after the PostoTfce has
acted, a publication is automatically cut
off from all other means OF dlstribu-
ton, as we'll as the mails. II an at
tempt is made to use the express com
panies, for example, IL will be case
for criminal prosecution by the Depart
ment Of Justice.
How the Law Will Work Out
However, the practical working out
will be different, because now when.
publication gets in trouble with the
postal authorities all other carriers Will
refuse to take il, as they will not want
TO invite fine Of $4,000 md imprison-
rcnt for twenty years. So that while
theoretically the Postoffice has no addi-
tional power under the new law, practi-
cally it is the whole show.
Under the existing rules of the Post
Office Department, when publication
is accused the publishers are notified
to come to Washington for hearing
before the Third Assistant Postmaster
General. The hearing is secret. All
information about 1t must come from
the publication under fire.
The rule Of secrecy was made by the
Postoffice Department for the excellent
purpose Of protecting Publisher from
his rivals This rule has been en-
forced for thirty years. The point Is
me de now, however. that it has posi-
bilities OF working injustice both to the
people and the publishers.
It is pointed out that publishers may
be put out of business in star chamber
proceedings, and that the only protec-
ton they have against possible injVs-
tice Is publicity in the charges and
evidence against them. Without this.
it is said, there is little or no control
Of the officials into whose hands is
given the enforcement of the censor
ship. The courts cannot intervene IN
til after the postoffice star chamber has
done it work.
So far the decision on this question
has been left entirely to A. VI. Dockery,
Third Assistant Postmaster General.
and he has refused to change the rule
of thirty years standing.

French Socialist
Raises Peace Cry

PARIS, Sept. 26.-The Chamber of
Deputicc passed the appropriations for
the fourth quarter of the year in ex-
traordinary session to-day. Interrupt
tons by Pierre Brizon, a Socialist
Deputy, who was one Of the pilgrims
10 the conference with German Social
lists at Kienthal. threw the Chamber
into tumult. NJ. Brizon asked If
American railroad men are coming to
France in order that French railroad
workers may be sent 10 the 'front.'"
The Deputy attacked Great Britain,
saying:
"You arc shedding the blood OF
France instead of that of her allies.
The whole Chamber protested, and
Emile Constant cried:
ave are not fighting for the Amer
cans. 1t is the Americans who are
coming to fight for u.s.
The Finance Minister, Louis KlotZ,
said
"All the Allies are fighting for the
same cause, and every word spoken
against them is against France"
Deputy Brizon declared that he, with
DEPUTIES Raitin-Dugens and Alexandra
Blanc, VINO went with him to Kienthal,
would not vote for the appropriations.
VI. Brizon shouted:
Down with the war! Long live
peace."
Albert Claveille, Minister Of Trans
port. said the coming Of American
technical men would increase the
transportation facilities considerably.
1--WE have always met with the ut
most good will from our American
friends" continued NJ. Claveille. The
question is not one Of persons. 1t
concerns intensifcation of traffic on our
lines for which we owe thanks to our
allies for their cooperation, and |
thank them for it."

1.-THE TENOEREST
MEMORY OF THE WORLD"

The birthday of Abraham Lincoln
grows more and more dear to the Am
erican people as the years pass and
his great spirit seems lowering nearer
and nearer that we may not forget
what he stood for, and the vital things
he said which are found upon history's
written page.
His speeches were largely epigrama.
tic but every sentence carries an idea,
every word is potent with love for
humanity.
With reference to women he says:
Il go for all sharing the privileges
of government who bear it's burdens,
by no means excluding the women"
Again Lincoln said: Men ought to
be mighty good to women, for nature
gave them the big end of the log TO
lift and mighty little strength to do
ii with"
IF all that has been said by orators
and poets since the creation in praise
of woman was applied to the women of
America, II would not do them full
justice for their conduct during the
war"
He believed in those who toll, and
upon this subject, he said: mo men
| living are more worthy to be trusted
than those who toll up from poverty;
none less inclined to take or touch
aught which they have not honestly
earned"
He had spiritual nature. Referring
TO the Bible, he said: I'm regard to
the Great Book, have only to say that
it Is the best gift which God has given
man. I am profitably engaged read.
ing the Bible. Take all This book
Upon reason that you can and the
balance on faith, and you will live
and die a better man."
He believed in the ultimate good
sense of the people. You can fool
all of the people some of the time.
and you can fool some of the people
all of the time, but you can't fool all
OF the people all of the time" THE
people know their rights, and are
never slow to assert and maintain
them whenever they are invaded"
