SATISFIED TO PARTICIPATED IN
 THE LEAGUE
Substances of Austrian Re ply Which Approves
 League of Nations.

Paris, Wednesday, July Sym pathy with the Chamber of Deputies Of the League of Nations and eX- pressions of willingness to be satis- fled with being taken as a partici- pating member in that organization and enjoy it's protection was expressed in the Austrian reply to the Allied peace terms, made public here today. The reply was dated at St. Germain- en-L.aye, June 23 in the form of a communication from Chancellor Renner head of the Austrian peace delegation, to Premier Clemenceau IS president of the peace conference
 The reply sets forth that the de- termination recognized that German Austria as the text of the note names the nation, could not well take a part in the problem of creating the league, which by it's very nature re- mains in the hands of great powers but will be glad of it's protection without taking an important part in the rights and obligations entailed by membership in this league"

TOURISTS VISIT ROMAN RUINS
 IN AIRSHlpS

Rome, July 1.--(Correspondence of The Associated Press) American tourists may hereafter visit Roman ruins the Coliseum. Forum, Pan- theon, Caracalla Baths and the Ba- silica of Constantine, St. Peters and other Rome gems, hereafter, not in antiquated horse drawn carriages but in airships. The Italian navy has established a commercial dirigible service for visiting Rome and it's an. virons from the air. The venture has met with complete success for daily the aircraft are filled to ca pacity.
 The correspondents of The Asso- ciated Press viewed Rome from the Italian Navy's dirigible Mi On Doaru were urplomatIc representatives of all the allied countries to the craft. The United States representa- tive was Colonel Buckley military attache, here.
 Those in the party of long resi- dence here stated that looking at Rome from the dirigible brought out features of it which went unper- ceived to the observer below His toric Roman landmarks viewed from the air gave the eye an entirely diff ferent aspect of their beauty and form. The riches of Rome in hidden gardens could only be appreciated. from above it was agreed.
 Looking a the Coliseum from the ground, it appears to be a circular mass of ruined grandeur. From the air. the elIptical proportions of the second greatest accumulation of mas onry in history are pronounced.
 The proceeds from the dirigible service are given to the Italian funds for those disabled in the war. Tea is served in mid-air and letters accept ed for postage.

COUNTRY LIKELY
 TO FIND ITSELF ON TIPLESS BASIS
Hotel Man Believes Custom Will Vanish With
 Prohibition.

Chicago, July 11.--With the going out of intoxicating liquor, the country IS also likely to go on the "upless'' basis. according to A. c. Stephens, president of the Ohio Hotel Associa- tion, who is in Chicago, arranging for the convention of his association to To held in connection with the Hotel show here during the week of Au- gust fourth.
 T think the day of tips is over," said MT. Stephens. With the Euro pean source of supply practically cut off, 1t is hard to get walters. So the hotels have been more and more carefully considering mechanical de- vices to take the place of servants.
 Tt is surprising to note how many really good hotels have installed cafe terias. I predict that more of them will do so. The cafeteria, as you know, is a, strictly tipless institution. Even in dining rooms where there is service. the movement toward doing away with walters is making rapid strides. There are all sorts of me- chan1cal devices for this purpose. A mechanical system for checking hats and wraps has already been de- Vised and, l am sure, will soon come into general use.
 With the going out of liquor and the curtailing of tips in consequence of this, walters will be asking a wage scale two or three times as great as the present one, and the hotel mer simply can't afford to pay it."

NO HORSES ON LARGEST FARM
 IN THE WORLD

A 100000 acre farm, the largest in the world, which is the direct result of the governments efforts to stinau- late the growing of wheat. is de- scribed by Robert H. Moulton in Everybody's for July.
 "The farm is devoted entirely to wheat, and if it produces somewhere around the country's average of 2s bushels per acre, which is practical ly certain, it will add approximately five million six hundred and ifty-siX thousand bushels to the 1919 wheat crop.
 "Al1 of the work is being done with tractors. Last fall, when the first ground was broken, there were fifty monster machines at work tear ing up the prairie sod. This spring others have been at work. They blow on an average of one acre a minute for. the working time. A record was made one day of eighteen hundred and eighty acres turned and broken. ALI the seeding, har- vesting, etc, will also be done by tractors,- and then, of course, there are the threshing machines. Hence the absolute no-accountness of horses

 CERTIFICATES PUT ON SALE

Hartford, July Il. War Savings Certificates in denominations of s1O0 and S1,000 will soon be available for sale in Connecticut, according to an nouncement made today by the Con- necticut War Savings Committee.

 War Savings Stamps of the face these new certificates. which bear the same rate of interest as the W. s. g.. amounting to nearly four and one half per cent. on stamps pur- chased during July. Widespread and continued savings and investment in 8 w. s. s. has caused an insistant demand for the issuance of a Gov eruHlent security which would con- bine the safety and profit of the W. S. s. with greater convenience for the purchaser of larger amounts The new certificates have been issued in response to that demand, and also of the funds of fraternal organiza- tions, labor unions, and other civic and social units which have signified their willingness to invest their moneys in Government securities.

DEFIANCE BROUGHT AUSTRIA
 WRATH UPON HER

The defiance of Istria to Austrian authority has been a constant mir acle. Of course, every new defiance meant new oppression. And yet tho Italians did not seem to have enough of that sometimes spineless thing called common sense to bow meekly to Austrian rule and thereby avoid trouble. By way of reprisal, scoresl of towns and villages were stripped clean by the Austrian troops. Cop per brass, furniture, carpets, pictures. silverware, dishes, bedding, mat tresses and the beds themselves. all went. The vineyards olive groves and farms were "requisitioned."
 Grain, cattle, sheep, donkeys were taken away. The church bells were lowered from their places and sent to do their pious duty in more loyal parts of the Austrian empire. Cloth ing of all kinds, suits, underwear, hats, stockings, shoes, even the night dresses of women and the ten-foot strips of cloth in which babies are swa ddled, were appropriated. The children of Istria have gone cold for three winters. The winter in Istria is not bitter-and yet there is con- siderable snow in some parts of the country, and during February 1 found heavy winter clothing, woolen trench socks and a greatcoat none too much for comfort Meanwhile
 little tads sought the sunny places, dressed only in ragged shirt and brooches, their legs blue-black from exposure. Influenza and pneumonia have reaped a heavy harvest.
 Great numbers of the men were sent away to internment camps. Dur ing their absence, their property nat urally ran into debt. Under off1ciai pressure the holders of the mort gages foreclosed and the property was sold to Germans and Austrians. The victims of this little game, when finally released, came home only to find themselves homeless.

MODERN LONG RANGE SHELLS
 CIGAR SHAPED

Modern long-range shells are cigar-shaped. They taper both at the front and at the rear. This ta- pering of the rear end is called 'boat-tailing.' You have noticed that racing automobiles have torpedo shaped sterns. A square-tailed shell or automobile is actually held back at high speeds because of the vacuum created behind it by the velocity of it's movement. Tapering the tail leads the air gently and easily into the hole that the shell or the racing car bores in the atmosphere and thus lessens vacuum's impeding grip on the flying object."-Says Everybody s Magazine.

 BRYAN'S SPEECH
 AT MONTGOMERY

Montgomery. June p 2-(special)-wil- liam Jennings Bryan delivered an ad- dress Saturday night on woman's suf< frage. the league of nations and prohibit tion to a crowd of several hundred at the city autorium This was MT. Bryan's first appearance in Montgomery since be- fore the declaration of war. He is ac- companied on the tour over the country by Dr. R. A. Russell worldwide presi- dent of the Anti-Saloon league.
 Utterances of the commoner were vocit- erously applauded. especially those rela-- ing to the league of nations. He used the arugment that the league of nations would be ratified by the United states Senate, because the great majority of the American people favor ratification, anI because senators are unwilling to face their constituency after voting against il. If the present Congress fails to ratify, he said, the American voters would elect a Congress favorable to it.
 Speaking of woman's suffrage, he sSd the country needs the votes of women. He did not believe there would be oppo- sition when the facts are revealed In
 discussing prohibition he said that the Anti-Saloon league would have to be on the alert to see that laws to enforce the prohibition amendment were enacted oy Congress.
