WASHINGTON. Sept. 5.--A new anti
Austrian campaign Will probably be
undertaken by the allies soon. This
TAeasure Will be taken to offset the
zaenacinE possibilities in the Russian
situation and to force Germany into
peace more rapidly. Strong pressure
is being exereed on this government
to declare war ON Austria and then
aid in downing her 80 that Germany
would be without her aid and cut of
Turkey and Bulgaria. American Of
hcIaIs including Secretary Lansing
have seen the possibility with Austria,
although they have declined TO let
Austria take the initiative.
What form the new Austrian actiV-
tiles may take Is shielded a military
secret. Allied diplomats nre looking
forward to pOst-bellum territorial
lines. They declare that German
autocracy must be wiped out and TINT
nation must be allowed to develop
along free lines without the stress of
PrussIanism upon them.

INDIANAPOLIS. Ind. Sept. 5.-Dila-
tory local conscription boards over the
state have a chance to see the hand
writing on the wall in a telegram from
Provost Marshal crowder of Washing
ton received by Jesse z. Eschbach.
state conscription agent, yesterday.
The message authorized the employ
ment of inspectors to visit such local
boards as needed speeding up in sup
plying their contingents wanted Sep
tember 1s and October 3.
The provost marshal held that the
local boards had ample time to do
their work" and ascribed delay to
"dere1iction of duty. which demands
vigorous and prompt action in order
that the vital interests of the nation
may not suffer" Crowder advised
Eschbach to fix the responsibility and
take action against such boards as
fail to comply with their quota sched-
ule and certify their numbers to the
district boards as quickly as possible
Mr.. Eschbach. however. stated that
the Hoosier boards are we'll up with
their work and that the appointments
OF inspectors will scarcely be neces-
sary in Indiana.
Another telegram relating to the
enlisting of drafted men follows:
1T has come to the attention OF
this office that the marine corps re-
cruiting service has published a state
ment to the effect that registrants
called by a local board may enlist in
the marine corps with the written con-
sent of the local board. Please call
attention to all concerned and give
publicity 70 the error of this instruc-
ton. After being called by a local
board no registrant is eligible for
voluntary enlistment in any branch of
the government service. This errone-
Gus instruction will be recalled by the
authorities of the marine corps"
