HUNGER FORCING CRISIS
FOR AUSTRlA-HUNGARY
fablegram to The Sunday Star and New
York World. Copyright. 1918.

LONDON, January 19.-The Daily
News correspondent at Geneva, under
date of last Friday, sent reports of a
grave character regarding the situation
in Austria Hungary. They were in cir
culation there. The plain fact faces
the authorities and the people that
barely three months after the gather
ing in of the harvest the food reserves
are exhausted.
The latest issue of the socialist Ar
bitter Zeitung reaching here states that
not a kilograrn of flour remains in re-
serve in Vienna. The capital is living
from hand to mouth on daily importa- :
tions of foodstuffs from the country
districts.
Well Informed observers of Austrian
affairs are of the opinion that the dual
monarchy IS really on the eve of a long
predicted, long postponed internal cri-
sis. which may have far-reaching re-
suits

wiki, the Ukraine. the Don and Rumania,
the object being further to exhaust the
Russian and Rumanian peoples and
make German conquest less difficult.
Huns Almost Win.
& The Germans were almost successful
in forcing the allied diplomats to leave
Russia. This would have been fatal to
allied influence in this country. as their
departure would certainly turn Russa's s
tremendous resources over to the Ger
mans for the remainder of the war.
> 1t seems probable now that the en-
bassieS will swallow their pride and re-
main in Petrograd regardless of events
attempting always to save as much as
possible from the wreckase The imme-
date problem is the solution of the Ru-
manian. Ukraine and bolsheviki disputes
The Ukraine and Rumania would prob
ably lay great stress on any allied ad-
vice could the allied officers act as medi-
.ators and the quarrel would soon be
settled.
But inasmuch as the allies have not
recognized the soviet it is impossible for
the allies to offer the peoples commits
saires and advice or assist il in the solu-
ffon of practical problems. The next ten
days will be period Of extreme trial for
the soviet and 1t will probably be too busy
to carry on the Rumanian fight If the
soviet energies from the coming crisis sue
cessfully there are reasonable grounds for
expecting that it will be recognized as the
de facto government in north Russia. After
that the allied position in Russia will be
more secure.
Meanwhile the Rumanians are prepar-
ing to defend their country against boil
shevik attempts to arrest their king
which, on the whole, would be a difficult
task.
Rumanians Deny Charges.
LONDON. January 19.-The holshevik
authorities in Petrograd received re-
ply yesterday. from the Rumanian gov
ernment denying the allegations con-
tanned in the bolshevik note to Ru-
mania, according to an Eychage Tele-
graph dispatch from Petrograd under

WAR CABINET BILL
SOON UP IN SENATE
Measure Providing Three Ad-
visers to Be introduced
Tomorrow.
PRESIDENTS VIEW SOUGHT

The entire problem of reorganization
of administrative machinery for car
ryine on the war, involving the ques-
tion of war cabinet and of ministry
of munitions will come to head this
week.
Proposed legislation for a war cab
met of three men. to assist the Presi-
dent in controlling the general direc-
tion of the war. will be introduced to-
morrow in the Senate. That providing
a director Of munitions already mas
been reported favorably to the Senate.
Within a few days some expression
from the President is looked for on the
subject. 1t is generally understood
that he does not now favor either plah'
though he still has an open mind on
the question of council or a caoinet.
He visited the Office of secretary OF
War Baker yesterday. to whom copy
of the proposed measure had beeh suo-
mitted. to study its provisions.
Presidents Support Desired.
II is realized that either proposal
would he of little effect unless il had
the Presidents support. Therefore i.
was considered likely that some etort
might be made to ascertain ms VIZ" .
The strong demand on Capitol HUI Is
believed to reflect a widespread SEM. W.
ment throughout the country on the
question of an agency which col.
responds to the munitions ministry OF
Great Britain.
chairman Chamberlain plans to press
the war cabinet bill and also that for
a director of munitions. next week. in
the Senate. He may withhold urslne
the former measure until the attitude
of the President is learned ana IL can
be determined whether amendments 10
reconcile possible differences between
the administration ana the coinihittee
are necessary.
Senate committee members. democrats
and republicans alike. are lns1stent
upon adoption of the general war canl-
net plan. They declare they VIII pro-
ceed with the legislation. even II ad-
approval is withheld, ana
express confidence of its adoption by
the Senate and probably the House over
possible opposition by the President.
Council" Not in Favor.
Committee members explained yester-
day, that the name cabinet" was sub
stituted by the committee for "coun-
Gil" in order to get away from the
idea of councils of purely advisory
bodies which have not worked well in
the past" 1t also was explained that
the bill does not preclude appointment
to the war cabinet of members of the
executive cabinet but that one man
could not serve in both capacities.
The committees decision not to have
the Secretaries of War and Navy ex-
officio members of the war cabinet also
was explained as in line with the de-
sire to further centralize war policies
and duties in smaller body. However,
some committee members believed 1t
possible that Congress might amend the
bill to permit the Secretaries of War
and Navy to be members, particularly
If the administration desires it.

lists Realized Their Prejudice
Mas Unwarranted.

If motorists realized that their preju-
dice against yellowish gasoline was un-
warranted the gasoline supply might
be increased considerably.
In the early days of the oil Industry
poor refining methods were RESPONSE
bic for the production of yellowish
kerosenes and g~asolines. which were
sometimes dangerous.
Another handicap. according to pc
troleum experts, is the necessity Tor
refiners treating gasoline with sui
phuric acid and caustic soda to remove
unsaturated hydrocarbons, which have
a high fuel value in an explosion en-

1t is estimated that there Is a loss
of 100000 a year in the United

line, $4,000 tons of sulphuric acid and
$500 tons of caustic soda.

REPLACE BEARING ON WHEEL
Best Way to Accomplish Task Is to
slip Short Length Of Pipe Over
the Spindle.

In replacing a bearing on n front
wheel spindle for which it is q tight
fit, the cur owner sometimes slips the
bearing on the taper end of the spindle
and then uses the wheel as a hammer
to force 1t home, wheel and bearing
sliding into position of the spindle at
the same time. This is poor business,
as the strain on the bearing may break
the hardened shoulder of the inner
race, which is meant to withstand
wear, but not shocks of this kind. The
best way of accomplishing his work
is to slip a short length of pipe over
the spindle, the inner end resting
against the inner race of the bearing.
By hammering the outer end of the
pipe carefully, the bearing will slip
into place without trouble.

IN FITTING BALL BEARINGS
Outer Race Should Form Sucking Fit
With Its Housing-Stresses Are
Thus Distributed.

In fitting ball bearings the outer racG
should form a sucking fit with its hous-
ing. This means that 1t should just
be free enough so that shaft rotation
will cause the race to slip around In
termittently. A press fit should never
be permitted and 1t is equally bad to
fly to the other extreme mt get too
loose a fit. With n sucking fit the
outer race car at times slip around and
In this way the stresses are distributed
and do not fall always on the same
