AUSTRIAN WORKERS
DEMAND PEACE
Thousands Quit Work and Parade
in Streets.
ANDRASSY TO HEAD CABINET
Hungarian Crisis Gradually Working
In Direction of Dissolution of
Parliament and New
Elections.

Copenhagen, June 2.-Reports from
Vienna say that simultaneously with
the opening of the Austrian parlia-
mcnt thousands of workmen ceased
work and attended meetings in differ
ent parts of the city. A great process
sion was organized which paradcd the
streets as demonstration for peace.
Austrian dispatches TO the German
papers give the impression that the
Hungarian crisis is gradually working
I'm the direction of dissolution of par
lament and new elections.
In the interim q minority ministry
would hold Office and Count AnIIraSsy
is mentioned as possible head for
such cabinet. Unless the Hungarian
electoral practices are changed the
cabinet in power during the election
would probably emerge with a ma.
jority. .
King Wants Secret Ballot.
The address of the Budapest NUM-
cipality to the king, thanking him for
his stand in the franchise question, re-
veals the fact that King Charles de-
sires universal secret ballot.
Count Tisza advocates restricted
and involved suffrage, perpetuating
Magyar dominance. Under royal pres
sure. however, he has dropped from
his program some of the Limitations on
the labor vote, such as requiring the
qualification of years residence and
the retention Of the same employment.
Count Tisza processes TO be weary
of the parliamentary struggle, and
tells his friends that he wants to go to
the front and fight. However, 1t Is
safe TO assume that when parliament
opens. the former premier will be Wig
orously leading the opposition.
