AUTHORITIES To
LOWER THE SHOE
PRICES IN FRANCE

PARIS, September 4.-Befire adj
journing for their summer vacation
last week parliament passed a law
on requisitioning which allows the gov
eminent to requisition, or take over at
a fixed price, any commodities neces-
sary to civil life, just as it has always
had power to requisition anything for
the army.
The new law will allow several
measures intended to alleviate the
dearness of living to be put into i'm
mediate effect as all necessary prelim-
inaries have been arranged for weeks
in readiness for the moment that this
/ law would give the authorities power
to act.
The first measure will be to inaug-
urate National Footwear" This does
not mean that everybody is to buy and
wear state boots, but that good boots
will be available to the people at fair
prices. The price of boots and shoes
has scared since the war to such a
height that only well-to-do people can
buv them. The cost of footwear, other
than of leather, even of wooden sa-
bots, has of course, greatly advanced,
owing to the greater demand from
those who are now unable to buy
leather boots.
National Footwear" will, of course,
be standardized. The ministry of COM
merce. in collaboration viii the army
comissariat, will requisition the nee
essarv leather and the boots will be
made for the civilians in exactly the
same way as they are already made
for the army The prices will be
stamped on them so that no one need
nav more than the official rate. Mems
boots will be sold at $3.50, at pre-wa1
Exchange, women's at $3.50, boys and
girls at $3.50 and children's at price
not yet fixed, between $500 and 1920
These prices allow a fair profit tc
the intermediary between maker anc
buyer.
The army commissariat has under
taken to supply 100000 pairs Of boots
a month from the present time, and tc
double that output very soon. AS the
: average demand for National Foot
wear" is estimated to be 100000
pairs a month, it will be some time
before the supply can satisfy it. Tn
output therefore at first will be re
served for the working classes and viii
be sold through their cooperative so
| cieties.
The next measure, already undel
way. will be the creation of Ma
tional Cloth, for which stocks of wool
etc, will be requisitioned and a goot
sound cloth made (in the same ay al
the boots, which will serve for clothes
/, for men and children, and for WON
: ems cloaks, etc.

F GOD RIO IT'S At.

SITUATION.

WASHINGTON, ID. u, september s.
IF the food riots which are reported
to have occurred recently in Brunn
prove sufficiently serious to disturb
the industrial life of the city of the
effect will be widespread throughout
Austria says a war Geography bull
letin issued today from the Washing
ton headquarters of the National
Geographical Society
"Brunn is the chief textile manu-
featuring city of the dual monarchy and
is frequently called the Austrian
Manchester. It's industrial establish
ments include wooden, cotton and
silk mills, leather factories, machine
works, breweries, distilleries, sugar
sugar and -four mills.
with a population Of $4,000, three
fourths of whom are Germans, Brunn
is the capital of the Austrian crown
land of Moravia. 1t enjoys a most
picturesque situation at the confluence
of the schwarzawa and Zwittaawa
rivers and at the foot of the Spielberg'
which towers to a height of nearly a
thousand feet above the narrow, wind
ing streets of the old town which
dates back to the 9Th century.
Few cities of Austria-Hungary have
a more striking military record than
Brunn. 1t has successfully withstood
four famous sieges-that of the Hus-
sites in 1928, of King George of Bo-
hemia in 1647, of the Swedes in 1913
and of the Prussians in 1742. Napoleon
had his headquarters here the night
before the battle Of Austerlitz, L
miles distant.
THE Spielberg, which is crowned
bv the citadel OF 8runn, recalls the
history of two spectacular characters
who were imprisoned there for many
wears. The first was Colonel Franz
Trenck, the notorious Austrian soldier
of fortune; the other was the famous
Italian poet and dramatist, Coun'
Silivfo Pellico.
after a sensational career, durlns
which he was dismissed in disgrace
from the imperial army, then senten
ced to death after a brief service il
the Russian army (the sentence bein5
committed to degradation and i'm
brrisonment by Marchal Munnich,'
Trenck finally entered the service o
Maria Theresa at the head OF nj
regiment of semi-savage Pandours
Ar the battle of Soor his men plum
dered when they should have beef
/ fighting, and were accused Of havin:
allowed the Prussian king to escape
Subsequently, Trenck was tried ant
convicted on many charges, and Wa'
again sentenced to death. The empress
commuted his sentence, however, an'
he was confined in the fortress o
! Spielberg, where, finding escape i'm
possible. he ended his tempestous life
with poison, and was buried in the
church of the Capuchins. 'Pellfct
was imprisoned in Spielberg in 1872
as a result of his political activitie:
against Austrian domination in Italy
He served eight years Of his l5-yeal
sentence, and upon his release wrote
the story Of his suferings in lie
iMie Prigioni", a work which won him
more enduring recognition than his
many tragedies. One of his dramas
written while he was confined in
spielberg. had to be memorized by him
as he was not allowed to take manu-
script with him from prison.
"Brunn lies almost due north OF
Vienna, at a distance Of SO miles by
rail"

A B0MBASTIC PROMISE


The kaiser's bombastic promise to
estore the throne to his brother-in-
law does not stir enthusiasm in the
heart of Macmillan Harden The ed
itor of Die Zukunft, quoted in a dis
patch to the London Daily News,
makes bold to justify the action OF
the Entente powers in disposing of
onstantine and exercising control in
Athens Constantine believed he was
king by grace Of God, but he was real
~ only king by the grace of the pro-
tecting power" explains the Berlin
editor. He shows that the eighth ar
ticle of the treaty of 1880 gives to
England, France and Russia the right,
even without the consent of the Greek
Greece. That right was not surrend-
cred when those three powers. having
delivered Hellas from the Turk and
created the new Greek State, placed
the Danish Prince Wilhelm upon the
throne, The opinion that to the pro
tecting powers belonged the right Of
control by occupation never has been
ccntradicted," says Herr Harden Con-
stantine long ago would have been de-
priyed of his throne if the dynastic
feelings of his Russian royal relatives
had not protected him.
Herr Harden evidently regards the
kaiser's assurance to Constantine as of
nc more value than one Of those scra?
Of paper" treaties. Constantine is not
dangerous any longer" he adds And
the whole incident is far below the
heights of tragedy New York Her.
