VIENNA. July 24.-The new terms
Of the Austrian peace treaty are
making no special impression on the
general public. The newspapers,
however remark that the world is
still attempting to treat Austria as
a great state, instead of one which
has lost flve-sixths of her territory
and been reduced from a great EN-
pire of 55,ooo:ooo persons to 100000
who are facing winter in which
hundreds of thousands are sure to
die of famine or cold

allies wish to force Austria into bank
ruptcy and thereby get prior claim
on her income. which will be applied
to damages and reparations."

Need Allied Assistance.

What the Russian nationalists need Is
allied assistance Of every kind. not only
war material. but general supplies Of
every nature. The policy OF the allies
has not given great assistance to the
nationalist movement. The British were

baron. despite the fact that the British

In Siberia similar method is being

Suggests Methods of Relief.

Included in Mr.. CIark's recommen-
dations were these suggestions:
Immediate temporary relief by in
creased fare, subject to later revi-
sion.
Adoption Of a plan for permanent
conduct of street railway business.
under state or municipal regulation.
This plan would include machinery
for determining just return, based
on the interests of both investor and
public: establishment of a system Of
charges for. service by which rates
would autonia tically increase and de-
crease to meet exigencies: operators
to be permitted to share in the earn
ings to insure economy, efficiency and
initiative; extensions, improvements
and other betterments to be regu-
lated by state or municipal body;
Inauguration of the indeterminate
franchise principle; establishment of
the right Of governmental agencies to
purchase the utility should it desire
and relief of companies from special
charges and assessments.

Mr.. Foss' proposals were stuff and
nonsense" made yesterdays hearing
the liveliest session yet held. "Pri-
vate ownership has fallen down." Mr..
Foss asserted. There is left only
public ownership with private opera :
ton or public ownership and opera
ton. We have got to democratize our
transportation; then we have got to
democratize our industries; otherwise
they will be in the same condition
they are in abroad"
Put a stop to this cheap talk, this
old stuff" retorted Mr.. Quacken-
bush. "The thing to do is not to
talk bunkum, but to recognize facts.
Unless we can get an increase in
fare between now and January, it
means a receiver for the Interboro.
If you are going to do something. get
busy. Put little oxygen into the
patient. and then if a major opera
ton is necessary, perform it."

PARIS, July 24.-Baron Anatole F.
Korff, a member Of the Russian politi-
cal conference and former Governor OF

tionalists are greatly alarmed over steps
taken in Germany concerning Russia
German banks are loaning money freely
to the Russians and are DONG tnlS on

for German inflltrauon
In addition Germany has been sending
technical experts to Russia to repair the
telephone and electrical systems and
generally helping to re-establish normal
conditions.
Working Among Bolsheviki.
They are now doing this among the
bolsheviki and the nationalists. refrain

One Of the reasons for the disintegra-

making proper distribution impossible.
Thus Germany is preparing the founda-

openly opposes bolshevism, it is making
efforts to keep it alive in Russia
Keeping Nation Disrupted.
This policy is pursued in order to keep
Russia disrupted, and divided. for only
under such conditions can Germany con-
troll Russia. The nationalists view this
situation with dread. Should Germany
succeed, the future development of the
Russian ceuntri1s would be along Ger
man lines instead Of in conformity with
the democratic systems OF the west.
Economically it would mean the ex-
ploitation Of the Russian people by Ger
many, accompanied by German colonial
