statement too literally and to believe
that the American President received.
directly or Indirectly. from Austria a

are as follows:
"A socialist delegate requested Czer-

GUARDS AT SUPPLY PLANS.

Requests for troops to guard ship

come so numerous of late that to avoid

all such applications.
Heretofore requests for military pro-
lection have been made directly to the
commander OF the Army camp or post
nearest the threatened point. AS a re-
suit. important training schedules have
been seriously hampered through the
withdrawal of the veteran units de-
tailed especially for purposes Of In
