Aimed at New states.

London, March "a (via MontreaL)
--Ifungary's adoption of Bolshevism
is regarded most seriously by the
Anglo French press, chiefly as en-
dangering the efforts Of the entente
to build up the Rumanian. Polish and
C2echo-Slovak states as bulwarks
against German domination of central
Europe.
All these three states are menaced
by advancing BolsheVik armies.
According to a Vienna dispatch it
was the establishment of the neutral
zone on the Hungarian Rumanian
frontier which the peace conference
had decided upon which precipitated
the crisis. This zone was intended to
make the Hungarians desist from at
lacking the Rumanians and to close
the gap between Rumania and Poland
The entente note defining this zone
was dated March 49, the Vienna ad-
vices state. The zone was fixed as
belt 140 miles long and forty miles
wide, virtually shutting Hungary be-
hind the, Rivers Thesis, Szamos and
MarOs, and including the towns of
Grosswardein, Debreczen and the en-
tire country behind them. The note
required the withdrawal of the Hun
garian troops behind the western
boundary OF the belt within ten days
and authorized the Rumanians to ad-
vance to the eastern boundary. The
civil government of the neutral zone
was to be exercised by Hungarians I'M
der allied control but the important
points would be occupied by allied
troops.
Statements issued at Budapest ac-
cuse the entente of forcing a revolt
ton, but the crisis is held here to be
more probably due to the occupation
of parts of Hungary by Czecho-
SloVaks and Rumanians while COM
mentators declare the signs are not
wanting that Germany is IN collision
with the Bosheviki.
Dr. Bernhard Dernburg, the former
German colonial minister, writes to
the Berlin Tageblatt something which
evidently has bearing on the stu
alton, when he says that Germany,
threatened with dishonor instead of

Food administration officials felt
that il was unfortunate that there had
been such a general misunderstanding
of Mr.. lloover's statement that we
might see wheat at $3.50 a busheL'
What Mr.. Hoover said was that
We might see wheat at $3.50 a bush
ell. as it was In the spring Of 1917, if
there is a free market in wheat and
uncontrolled Urtces. SO much for the
1918 crof. There can he no free mar
ket Of 90 per cent of the worlds eX-
ports As to the 1919 crop it is, Of
course, too early to come to any pre-
else conclusion
Further, The phrasing Of the grain
appropriation bill c'early indicates
that the $1,000 100000 appropriation
was made by congress, not only to
make good the $2.26 guarantee to the
farmers, but to enable the government
TO sell wheat ana flour at the guaran-
t6ed prices and to- enable the people
Of the United States to purchase
wheat products at reasonable cost
Wheat is the basic, food commodity.
What is a reasonable cost must be de-
tclmined by conditions. In July the
new wheat crop. estimated at more
than a billion and a quarter bushels,
will begin to come to market.
II believe, therefore, that there is
every reason to expect lower food
prices in the relatively near future
This view, believe, the men in
charge of the food administration
will share"

FOUR BILLION
DOLLAR MEET
Coming Session Likely to Make
History in More Ways
Than One
by a. Il. GELDHoF
n. Il. A. Washington Bureau, 112S-
1874 Munsey Building,

WASHINGTON, May 16-In days
before the war Americans used to be
inexpressibly Mortified by a billion
dollar congress" This year 1t will be a
fou r-billion-dollar congress"
Just as the 65th congress broke all
records Or wartime appropriations,
SO will the seth smash all records for
p~eace-time appropriations.
The appropriation bills which fell
by the wayside when the 65th con
gress adjourned In the midst of a fill
buster on March 4, will be the first
/ considered after the senate gets
through talking about the treaty and
the League of Nations.
Representative James W.. Good,
chairman of the committee on appro-
priations of the House, declares the
appropriation and supply bills will be
ready for presentation as soon as the
special session meets. Unless these
bills are passed and signed by the
president before June 80, the various
government departments won have a
cent to get along on, for the appro-
priation acts under which they are
now operating expire on that date.
And 1t is extremely unlikely that
these big money bills can be passed in
that short time.
TT will TAX the new congress at
least two weeks to organize and get
down to business" says Chairman
Good. ut would have been very difh-
cult for congress to give the considera-
ton to these necessary appropriation
bills which is required inc pass them
by June 80. II it had been in session
during April and May.
The appropriations which should
be passed before June 80, including
those for the army, navy, Indian at
fairs. District of Columbia, agricul-
ture, sundry civil expenses and to sup
ply deficiencies in several depart
ments, aggregate more than $780,
900. 900. according to Representative
Good.
"In addition to these" says Good,
at is impossible to estimate now
what expenditures will be involved in
the administration of the railroads,
operation of our merchant marine,
the war risk insurance payments,
providing homesteads for soldiers,
etc"
Here are some of the appropriation
bills that passed the House last ses-
sion, but died in the Senate, end will
have to be passed In the special ses-
sion:
$S24,708,121; third deficiency, $842,-
O96, 913; sundry civil. SS51.171.S $40:
agriculture, $37,344,S52; District of
Columbia. $14.446, 364; Indian affairs,
$11.457,79
The Republican congress may be
expected to scrutinize carefully every
appropriation asked for by the Demo-
cratic administration, and there will
doubtless be a loud outcry against al
LEGGED waste and extravaganza.
