most important matter of internal
policy with which Austria struggles.
DR.. HUssAREK's task will be meas
urably complicated by the defence of
the Government made by voN SEYD-
LER. The former Premier declared
that despite "the internal propaganda
methods Of our enemies" the Ger
mans remained the backbone of the
empire" His assertion that 1.-THE
loyalty Of our citizens to the State
and the firm internal cohesion of our
State" were mistaken brought out
storm of derislon from the members
Of the Relchsrath and preclpltated
a discussion remarkable for Its bit
terness even In Austrian parllamen-
tary controversies.
The plan that DR.. HussAREK pro-
poses Is to form n Cabinet without
political character. His scheme is
to retain for the present the members
Of the former Ministry with the ex-
ceptlon of vow SEYDIER, and later to
cussion of reforms for the Bohemlans
and South Slavs. Even the Austrians
themselves think that this trick to
avoid the issue will fail.
The Czechs see in the recent gerry
Wandering Of Bohemia a preliminary
step to grab the kingdom. One of the
Deputies declared this shows that
even the Germans have ceased to be-
lieve in the continuance of n German
Austria and therefore they are pre-
pairing to partition Austria"
Declaring that the greatest him
drance in the way Of peace was the
oppression of small natlonalities, DR..
STRANsKY said that not only had
President WILSON put that clearly in
the foreground, but that BURIAN had
recognized 1t by pointing out the
necessity Of Austria reforming her
self. Defining still more clearly the
position of the oppressed Austrian
races, he said:

nifty hate and struggle against that Aus
tria AFFLICTED with the German back
bone. and II COP wills It we shall smash
her TO pieces. Austria Is simply a CEN
fury old crime against the freedom of
humanity.
Austria Is not State, but a hideous
dream Of hundred years; an Alpine
load Of tyranny. and nothing else. Aus
tria Is a State without patriots and
without patriotism. It Is an absurdity.
II Is State the Czechish soldiers OF
which have thrown themselves against
the enemy--to embrace them. to make
common cause with them. in order that
regiments, brigades and army corps may
be created against this State"
Nothing could show more convinc-
ingly than these utterances Of the
Austrians themselves the difficult
task confronting DR.. HUssAEEK In
his efforts to save the ramshackle
Hapsburg monarchy.

To THE EDITOR OF THE SUN-Sfr: In

bean is passing away. This sounds too
good to be true
A reply from the Department of Farm
Crops, New York state School OF Agri-
culture. to recent article of mine,
Mutton (wool) VS.. Beans" states that
the United States Government dieticians
highly approve beans, and show there
is rather less food value in pound Of
mutton than in a pound OF beans, all
based upon chemical analysis: THAT the

making every effort to encourage the
growing of staple crops by growing
beans. by giving free expert advice and
distributing seed beans at cost" So

The fact is that the bean is the most
detrimental article considered food to
which the human digestive organs can
be subjected. In 1856 DIR. James II.
Salisbury commenced to make expert
ments upon the human with various
foods. to determine their actual value
to the human body. These exhaustive
experiments are infinitely set forth In
his The Relation OF Authorization and
Disease" published in 1858, and from
which quote ut page 10:
The bean Is chiefly made up OF double
walled sacs of legumen, which are filled
with starch grains These sacs are as
insoluble in the digestive fluids as woody
hbrs, and the only way In which the Sc
cretions OF the digestive organs can get at
the contents OF these insolube sacs is by
the starch grains undergoing fermentation.
This liberates large quantities Of carbonic
acid gas. which gas explodes the sacs BY

The Bean.

The remarks on the bean by CORE
spondents whose sentiments, pro-bean
and anti-bean, are printed elsewhere
on this page, do not move us to great
depths. This Is not the weather for
hasty condemnation Of ancient insti-
tutions; nor Is 1t wise to assume that
temporary change in the dietary Of
our army abroad can overthrow the
bean. The despatch from France did
not say that the soldiers had pro-
tested against beans, but that beans
seemed to be going out of style.
Maybe the Pyramids too are going
out of style.
This is not the season for beans.
The bean Is most in demand in win
ter. when mans chemistry calls for
foods of the sterner sort and when
that well balanced ration pork and
beans supplies energy for tremendous
workers, such as woodchoppers, rail-
road presidents, fee cutters and eff
cheney engineers. In summer the
baked bean Is preyed upon only by
those who have the habit hopelessly.
The truth probably Is that the Ameri-
can army, provided with steaks, chops
and vegetables, has pushed aside the
familiar bean; but only for the nonce.

really the navy bean, Phaseolus vul-
