BONDS MAKE THE HUN RUN.
AUsTRIA-HUNGARY CRUMBLING.

Reports received today from sources
usually considered reliable indicate
that a strong movement is on foot in
Vienna to grant national autonomy
in other words, to comply with con-
dition No. 10 of President Wilson's
fourteen provisions for the establish
ment of lasting peace. In his proc
lanai the President had the fol-
lowing to say regarding the dual
monarchy:
The peoples of Austrla-Hun-
gary, whose place among nations
we wish to see safegUarded and
assured, should be accorded the
freest opportunity of autonomous
- development.
Gradually the significance and wis
dom of the Presidents fourteen con-
ditions are fast becoming appar-
ent to the subjects of Austria Hun
gary. The dual monarchy has with
in its borders some 10 nationalities
represented and each one is naturally
desirious of autonomy. It Is obvious
that if genuine autonomy is granted
Germany would lose her most pow
erful ally and that her dream of
powerful Middle Europe would van
ish forthwith.
It is not to be imagined for a mo-
ment that the Prussian military lead
ers will tolerate such a step if they
YYyI,
control Of the situation in Austria
Hungary at present under the terms
Of the agreement reached over
year ago between the two countries
regarding the fusion of military
forces When that agreement was
signed the Austro- Hungarian general
staff ceased to exist except in name,
and the disposition of troops from the
dual monarchy has been entirely in
the hands Of Hinder burg and his ad-
visers. They will fight to the last
autono my, but on the other hand. it
Is possible that matters have reached
such a stage that they will be power
less to hinder Germany's ally in the
contemplated move.
If Austria-Hungary really grants
national autonomy to the various
races within her confines, it will be
the first bit of evidence of good faith
displayed by her, and it would be &C.
copied as an indication that she in
tends to cease hostilities

realize that 1t Is only human and nat
tural to impart information. But if
We arc to allay the general excite
ment we must try to Gesist from
spreading news of bad nature
which lan neither aid the patient nor
help il any way toward maintaining
calmness of mind.
Let us ALL therefore, do what we
can to prevent the community at
large from becoming rndUly aroused
over the situation. If each one strives
cons ,ientiously to do his part in this
regard we will find that it will be
much easier TO carry on the work of
stamping out the epidemic. Let us
be calm.

CALL FOR VOLUNTEERS.

In another column will be found a
most urgent appeal for women help
of the Red Cross which maintains
in the City building.
The call is for volunteers who will

here. The appeal speaks for itself.

augmented. In time like this it is
/ he solemn duty OF every woman who
can possibly give her services DIN this
worthy cause to do so Immediately.
Those who have automobiles at their
disposal should offer them unhesitat-

ought to consider it privilege as well

very precaution will be taken to

AMERICAN ATRPLANES.

In todays news we find the pleas
ing announcement that an American
air squadron conducted a successful
bombing raid on two fortified places
occupied by the Germans The first
fact which impresses the reader is
$50 machines, of which 200 were used
for bombing purposes, 100 were battle
planes and so were triplanes. This
mammoth squadron represents what
America can do in the way of air
plane production, calamity howlers to
the contrary Notwithstanding. An
other fact worth noting is that the
squadron dropped 80 tons, or ap-
proximatoly $4,000 pounds of explo-
sives on the points which were their
detectives. The enemy must have
thought that the end of the world
had arrived when those mighty bird
like machines lowered over them and
hurled down ton after ton of destruc-
tive material. And this is only a
sample of what the enemy may ex-
pect. The Germans have bombarded
non-com batants, hospitals and de-
fenseIess towns long enough. The day
of retribution has arrived. Their for
titled cities have enjoyed immunity
too long. They shall now realize
what air warfare means. Here's hop
ing the American bombers will soon
be flying across the Rhine. There are
some excellent targets in the dear old
"VaterIand'.

1t would be a very good thing If
some of our factory officials would in
vestigate and instruct such foremen,
that such conditions be removed. Our
manufacturers have a great problem
on their hands, and need, and should
have the help and cooperation of
every person in their employ, eSpe-
cially the trusted foreman.
There are the sanitary conditions,

Illness, not by allowing expectorating

conditions that need attention. In
speaking on the subject, not long
since with man of foreign birth, he
told me that when a boy at home,
he had been taught and had read,
that the Americans were of the high
est ideals, the most wonderful people.
He felt they were almost God Him
self, kind and good, and had a long
ing to go to America and see and be
among such wonderful people. Ben
jamin Franklin was his ideal. He
thought he would find all Americans
like him. He came to America,
young man. The first place he found
employment in. was In a factory In
Waterbury, Connecticut There he
was so surprised and disappointed to
find Americans were not what he had
expected to find, a Benjamin Frank
lin. The men would laugh at him,
jeer at him, play all kinds Of jokes on
him, because he could not speak or
understand the English language,
and because of his foreign ways.
They would not accept or help him.
He was very home-sick longed for

feel if it was your boy) Coming from

fair education made it doubly hard to
bear. Much credit is due the man.
He made the most of the opportuni-
ties that awaited him in this Won
derful country, and at the present
time is one of Eartford's business
men. The time came when he found
there are many good Americans.
There are hundreds and hundreds
of others who arrive here, with just
such thoughts of America and Ameri-
can people to be disappointed. Why
have such conditions? It is for each
one of us to help them rather than
throw cold water on them. Many
times my heart aches for them and
T feel that I must reach out and help
every one of them. They don't seek
charity. They work for their living.
Kindness costs us nothing. 1t is
work for every one of us. Don't
wait until the war is over; begin now,
to accept them.
In this war all of the Allied ma
tons are fighting for the one cause,

to us for help and protection. Don't
disappoint those who are toiling daily

to estimate. It is enough to insist
upon. the particular purpose which his
effort suggested. In so far as this
was simply a part of the modern in
clination toward realism, it was, of
course, nothing new. But the striv
ing for a special intimacy of effect
that is what may fairly be called 3
fresh characteristic. A related intent
can be ceen in other recent work.
There is, for example, the Gutzon
Boegium statue of Lincoln appeared to
New Jersey. So closely inviting to
human companionship has this
seated figure of Lincoln appeared to
the children of Newark that small
boys and girls have made almost q
practice of spending their time
roundabout it, sitting in the Presi
dents lap, reading there, or nodding
near his feet, or perhaps climbing
upon his shoulder and curling ole
arm around his neck. Of a truth
there is new appeal here, that this
should be possible.
Yet if it must be admitted that two
cousins are too few to make clan, or
to prove the advent of a novel style IL
statues, let a third be brought to
judgment, perhaps the most daring of
them all. Consider G. S. PietrOs
figure of John Burroughs, lately un-
yelled for the Museum of Art in
Toledo, Ohio. Here is a representa-
ton fully intended as a piece of COM
memorative aria monument in
every sense of the word-yet which
has not the first trace of conven-
tionaI dignity. Burroughs is shown
in life-scaIe, resting upon a rock, his
feet and legs swinging loosely off
from it's curved surface, his left hand
shading a glance that looks deep into
the distance, scrutinizing and at the
same time caressing all the details of
the scene before him. The clothes he
wears are of the roughest-1o coat
soft shirt, rugged boots He is the
outdoor man out-of- doors. And so he
will be mounted, upon an actual
boulder, with no formal pedestal, in
the open air.
If such jauntiness in a statue incites
certain surprise, the surprise will
be found accompanied also by very
real stimulation of interest. This
adaptation of the customary free
dom of genre sculpture to the more
eXacting demands of the portrait
monument has it's advantages. 1t can
be made to convey an uncommonly
lucid idea of the nature and predllec-
tons possessed of its subjects Above
it all it can produce happy intimacy
of efect-at least it can when 1t
succeeds When it fails it is rather
worse, rather more ba1al, than the
worst of conventional monuments. IN
any event it suggests the coming of
new generation i'll the age-long sue
cession Of thu worlds statues of
famous men.

INCREASES FOOD SUPPLY
Germany Rationed Until April at,
EarHest-Shortagc of Fats and
Sugar Throughout Empire.

Washington, Oct. 10.-Food mater
ials and supplies that have been pro-
duced in Germany this summer will
be sufficient with restrictions on con-
sumption to meet the needs of the
armies and the civil population until
about next April it is said by officials
of the Food Administration. Enlarged
conservation measures are being put
in effect throughout the empire which
are expected to stretch out the avail
able food materials until time for
planting again.
The danger spot in the German
food situation is in the shortage of
fats. Efforts made during the sum-
mer to overcome this deficiency
through the production of large
quantities of oil bearing vegetables
were partially successful. Severe re-
strictions on the use of oils of all
kinds have been put into effect by
the German food administrators, es-
pecially in the matter of butter andt
meat fats.
There Is dire need for sugar-a con-
dlClOn WhlCh the government sought
to overcome last summer in the pro-
duction of syrup producing canes and
vegetables.
BY careful allotment of vegetables
and canned goods and restrictions on
the use of meats the Teutonic food
officials expect to be able to carry the
empire through another winter or The
available supply of ratiOns. Little
promise is held out, however, that the
cold weather will not severely tax the
physical resistance of the civilian
population owing to depleted vitality
from prolonged starvation this sum-
mer. The death rate is already heavy
among people above SIS years of age.
Under the rules governing exports
that have been put in effect by the
United States virtually all supplies of
foodstuffs to Germany from neutral
countries have been stopped In every
instance the, War Trade Board has
ascertained beforehand that the con-
signments of food to neutrals will not
serve to release other foodstuffs for
shipment into German territory.

The Intimate Statue.
(F'rom the Boston Evening Tran
acript.)

(From the Boston Evening Tran
acript.)
Is there a new family of monu-
ments coming to birth, a new mode
at hand in the making of statues?
Even two or three years ago when
Bella Pratt's figure of Edward Ever
EFT Hale first appeared in the Public
Garden, Boston saw that this monu-
ment carried a somewhat unusual
quality. 1t boldly omitted certain
features common to statues of dis
tinguished men. For one thing, it
had no pedestal. DR.. Hale was made
to stand almost directly upon the soft
grass of the garden. The figure itself
had none of the traditional attributes
of formalized, dignity. Obviously,
however, Bella Pratt's work was
not one of omission alone, but also
of consciously organized purpose. 1t
precluded all save the aim to reveal
DR.. Hale in such way that sudden
glimpse of the statue should seem like
chance, an intimate meeting with
the great preacher himself, out for n
stroll in the garden, his head slightly
bent, his shoulders slightly STOPPING
with age, his gaze at the level of
every mans eye.
Precisely how successful Pratt was
in this effort it is not now our business

INNOCENT MAN Tn PRISON
Convicted Bank Robbers Admit Will
liam Murray, Now at WcthersfieId,

Hartford Oct. 10-That John
Kirby of No. 4S5 IShawmut avenue,
Boston, was the third man who tried
to rob the City Bank and Trust Com
pany of $500 in this city on May 3,
instead of William Murray Of Boston,
now serving a three year sentence in
the state prison at Wetherstleld for
participation in the robbery, was the
statement of John H. I[ilgallin and
William Donovan when arraigned In
the superior court before Judge l.. r.
Burpee today, charged with peciu"v
made in Murray's trial
Kilgallin and Donovan pleaded not
guilty to the perjUty charge AND
through Public Defender John +. For
ward made motion that their trial
be deferred until December to allow
them to get witnesses from Boston.
They have been in states prison since
June serving sentence for their part
in the attempted robbery which they
admitted. Murray was captured later
in Boston and eXtradited for trial. 10
claimed he was not in Hartford on
May 3, 1918, and had witnesses that
he was in Boston on that date.
That the men were bluffing was tho
opinion of States Attorney Acorn
who insisted on an early trial o. tina
perjury case.
