AUSTR|ANS PLEAD
FOR US. TROOPS
Small Bodies of Americans
Needed to Keep Order,
Natives Assert.
TO CHECK BoLsHEvlsM

VIENNA, Wednesday, November q
(by the Associated Press).-on all
sides in the former Austrian empire
one hears the plea that small bodies
Of American troops be sent to the
centers Of population for the purpose
of Akeeping order. Such a step, 1t is
held. would work against the tend
encfes Of unrest caused by the count
less political and boundary disputes
among the numerous races and help
prevent any trend toward bolshevism
that disorderly conditions might tend
to promote,
It is urged by Jewish residents ar
irving here from Przemysl and Lem
berg, for instance. that the presence
Of a few American uniforms would be
sufficient protection against such
anti-semitic outbreaks as have oc-
CURED at those places recently.
The word bolshevism is loosely used
here, but the only authentic example
OF outbreaks taking on this complex
ion appears to be furnished among
the Sloyak population of northwest
ern Hungary, where the former ruling
classes. the Magyer country gentle
men. have virtually abandoned their
estates. 1t is reported that efforts by
the Czechs to take possession of this
territory was followed by an upris-
ing Of the peasants and also by out
breaks against the Jews.
The most recent example of the lit
eralness with which the peoples of the
old dual monarchy have interpreted
President Wilson's conception of self
determination among every body OF
peoples of the same tongue and race is
to be found among the Inhabitants in
the region of Gottschee. some thirty
miles northeast of Fiume, a body OF
about 10000 1erman-speaking peo-
pie living in the heart of Jugo-Slavfa.
Representatives Of the Gottschee
Trieste three weeks ago and also came
to him after his arrival here. explain
ing that they wished the protection Of
America against the Jugo-SIays, so
that they might declare a republic.
They say they were friendly. to the
Jueo-Slavs, but that in view 6f Presi-
dent Wilson's notes they felt they
had a right to their own political free
dom and wished to exist in the interior
Of Juso-Slavia just as San Marino did
in Italy.
These people claim that Jugo-Slav SOL
diers arrested the mayor of Gottschee
and are prosecuting the political leaders
of the region. They declare their group
had it's origin in Bohemia. whence it
emigrated 900 years ago and occupied
Gottschee, but that it always retained
the use of the German language, and
that now if their people are to be forced
to abandon it, if they remain. they pre-
fer to abandon their homes. They claim
there are 100000 of their people among
the population of New York. Cleveland
and San Francisco.

sat in chair. He wrapped a hand

tucked one corner down the back of

the lather in, but seized his razor,

View of Workers Expressed.
Marcel Cachin thus expresses the
point Of view of the French working
population:
president Wilson's message in the
midst OF agony touched profoundly
the sentiment of idealism Of our pro-
ietariat. The President is not So
cialist. yet he alone among those who
governed was able. amid the outburst
of universal hatred, to speak the Ian
guage of kindness, humanity and in
ternationai Justice. He alone, with the
socialists. protested against imperial
ism wherever 1t comes from. He
formulated In enduring terms the true
aim of this odiouS war, namely. that
it should be the last Of all wars.
League Of Nations Necessary.
ITO be sure of this a league of ma
tons must be formed. The peoples
must disarm. permanent armies must
be abolished and commercial cities
established which accord to every one
freedom of transaction. In upholding
these lofty ideals Mr. Wilson con-
Quered the generous heart of the

gratitude. We also will show him
that the noble ideas Of which he has
been the brilliant mouthpiece are not

racy.

all working Paris will renew in his
honor the great fete of which it gave

WAR NEWS MAKES STOCK PRICES SOAR
(RepuoIican A. p. Leased Wire]

NEW YORK, July 1S.-The news that American troops had victor iously advanced on the western front prompted an almost unparalleled out burst of enthusiasm on the floor of the stock exchange today. Brokers yelled and cheered and bought stocks. Prices scared.
 The market, which took sharp up ward trend almost at the opening, re- mained active, with still rising prices, until the closing hour, when as the success of the allied drive became more fully known the buying became still more vigorous.
 The spirit of optimism spread throughout the financial district, bank CTS and brokers remaining at their of rices long after the close of the market in their desire to receive later war bulletins.
 A highly significant feature of the bond market was the activity and strength of foreign war flotations es- pecially Paris sixes, which rose three points. Issues of this class have always been extremely sensitive to changes in the foreign military situation. | The advance in stocks encompassed all the active issues in the several war groups, as well as numerous special ties of a semi- character.
