AUSTRIA IN DANGER
 OF INTERNAL STRIFE State Council Fears Wide spread Unemployment,
 Hunger and Misery"

Amsterdam, Nov. 1.-The State council at Vienna has issued an appeal to the German people Of Austria in which it is declared the country is in danger and the army breaking up i'll disorder. The appeal cxhorts the soldiers voluntarily to join the Ger man-Austrian army corps.
 The appeal points out that Germans from the non-German districts are going home, while Gernlan soldiers, obviously tired from the long duration of the war, are leaving their units without considering that the irregular rehabilitation brings the danger of widespread unemployment, hunger and misery" The prison camps are being abandoned by their guards, the council adds, and Italians, Russians and Serbians are leaving the camps and flooding the country.
 ''This danger" the appeal declares, must be countered if fresh blood- shed is not to threaten our severely tried people and tens of thousands of men, women and children perish with hunger"
