Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON, May 24-Dr. Vow
slav M Yovanovitch, director of the
official information bureau of the
Serbs, Creates and Slovenes here. has
received from the government of the
new Jugo-Sav Kingdom the following
cablegram, dated Belgrade, May 90:
"Numeous official dispatches received
by the government from Laibach give
sombre and bloody picture of the
cruelties committed by the Germans
of Austria during their recent in
vasion of the Slovene parts of Carin-
thia. An indescribable terror reigns
in the Celove Klagenfurt region.
"The Austrian Germans have syste
maticaly and in all it's details prepared
the campaign against the peaceable
Slovenian peasants, with the evident
intention of exterminating the Jugo-
Slav element in Carinthia, a country
they covet
"Under the pretext of a pretended
Jugo-Slav offensive planned against
them, the Germans have massed troops
and have crossed the frontier line
invading the Slovene country, and COM
mitted, before the very eyes of the
peace conference, savage crimes and
terrible cruelties which exceed. if DOS
sible, even the atrocities committed in
Serbia, Belgium and Northern France
during the war"
The following are some Of the re-
ports which have been received here:
Several hundred Slovene peasants
have been interned at the camp at
Spital on the Drava River. Three
Slovene Roman Catholic priests we're
hanged at this camp.
AT Celovec, the Austrian Germans
publicly exhibited the ears, eyes, and
noses of their victims, in order to call
forth their soldiers to commit new
crimes, declaring they we're the organs
of Austrian victims of their Slovene
conatonale. The German Austrians
especially attacked the Slovene clergy,
knowing them to be extremely patriotic
and antiAustrian.
"At the village of Sells, the pictures
of the Saints from the church served
as shooting target for the Germans.
MADAME Francis. Grafenauer, wife
of the we'll known Jugo-Slav leader and
deputy to the national parliament
of Belgrade, who was at Svecc, was
carried off by the soldiers with her
young children and three sisters.
Nothing is known as to her fate.
"The priest, Fouger, was struck on
the face by German student and is
now an inmate of the hospital at Cello
veo. Two Roman Catholic nuns were
killed at Velikovatz. The bodies of
Slovene men and youths are hanging
to trees along the public road
1.-The German advance guard had with
it list of the notable Slovene in
habitants, indicating those who were
to be executed and those who were t
be illtreated and held for ransom"

ton of the question, now frequently
raised, of an increase in rates.
"ln my judgment the deficit for
1918 and for the readjustment period
Of 1919 are clearly losses due to the
war and ought to be treated as such.
BY reason of the abnormal after the
war factors tending to important
changes in the situation, the estimate
herewith submitted does not attempt
to forecast results beyond the first
four months of this calendar year.
'If the amount here requested shall
be appropriated the total appropria-
tions for the railroad administration
will have been S1.7OO, 100000. OF this
amount 81 100000 will represent
amounts which should be returned to
the government, S425, 100000 thereof
being temporarily tied up in working
capital and 100000 thereof rep
resentinf amounts which have been
and will be advanced for the account
of the railroad corporations, and
which it with be their duty to repay
as rapidly as practicable. About s14,-
100000 will represent expenditures
for equipment of inland waterways.
"Of the entire S1,7OO,0 100000, 1885,
100000 represents the aggregate loss
to the government up to April 80
1919, on account of the two deficits
above explained.
"The sum of approximately S223,-
100000 for increased working capital
demonstrated that the amount Of work
ing capital actually available for cur
rent use on December 81, 1918, was
insufficient to admit of the free and
unrestricted payment of pay rolls and
vouchers for materials and supplies
throughout the country"

Era of High Prices
TO Last for Years.
Says Otto III. Kahn
Banker Points to Inability
of Production to Exceed
Demand and Expansion of
Currency and Bank Credits
NeW York Tribune
WdShtuOfo1, .Rurcou

WASHINGTON, May 24-Otto H.
Kahn, of Kuhn, Loeb and Company,
New York, in communication to
Secretary Wilson, of the Department
Of Labor, expresses the firm belief
that prices will not be materially
lowered for a number Of years, if at
all, and that for all practical purposes
the war has brought a new level of
prices, the existence of which must be
recognized.
Mr.. Kahn writes: prices are de-
tcrmined in the main by the volume
of production, of consumption and
probably more than by either of
these) of the circulating medium, i. e.,
currency, bank credits, etc.
"1-Production. After the civil war
the return of prices to the pre-war
level, though it took thirteen years
to accomplish, was immensely aided by
the development of entirely novel
methods of production in the shape of
new forms Of machinery and new
kinds of business organizations. No
one will seriously contend that the
possibilities of the immediate future
for increased efficiency or novel meth
DDS in production and distribution are
likely even to approach those which
came between 1865 and 1890.
"2-Consumption. In view of the
vast destruction wrought by the wa,
and now to be made good by recon.
struction, and in view of the accumu-
lation of the demand for many things
which could not be supplied during
the war, demand in many fundamental
lines is bound to be large and urgent
for some time to come.
'3-Circulating medium. The credi,
expansion and currency imitation OF
the leading countries of the world
including our own, during the pas,
five years has been on an entirely un-
precedented scale. The process of con-
traction and defation, to the extent
that is possible and likely to be ap-
proved by public opinion, will take
many years.
"The conclusion is inevitable that
we have arrived at a new price level
This level in the early future may &c
somewhat lower, or it may go some
what higher than at present, but il
seems to me certain that there can,
not be any immediate and radical re
cession. Those who hope for or fear
materially lower prices will, am con-
vinced, have to wait a long time"

LET AMERICA WATCH WELL.

One hundred and thirty years ago
Yesterday tumultuous French mob
ptormed and overthrew the Bastile;
the state prison and citadel Of Paris,
and started the bloody French Re-
volution.
Yesterday all France celebrated
the anniversary of the great day
July II. 1889. II was their national
holiday. The heart Of Paris throbbed
with near as much fervor and en-
thusiasm as it did on that memorable
day in November 191S-when the
yoke of Prussianism was lifted from
the world and war-stained France in
particular. Allied and American her
oes, wounded men from the great
war, marched in a mighty parade in
honor of the great day. Millions
swarmed the boulevards and waved
the tri-color Of France. Foch, Joffre
and Pershing-men who made No
vem5 IL possible-were there TO
add luster to commemoration, of de-
mocratic order in France.
America can we'll draw new mean

Many laugh at the thought OF a
coast to coast uprising of Bolshevism
IN America. When you are ready to
laugh remember the events OF yes
terday. Remember the poisonous vir-
MS that set its fangs into Russia. Re-
member the crumpling Of Germany
at home under the rule of the Soviet
that hastened the end on the battle
field. Remember Austria-Hungary,
remember Italy: all but tottering for
a time under Red intrigue. When you
laugh at such a. thing taking hold OF
our own institutions remember the
French Revolution. French high au
thority laughed in 1889 and the
streets Of Paris ran red with the
blood OF thousands. A republic was
overthrown.
Our vision lies ahead-our task
is yet to be accomplished. Unceasinf
vigilance, unceasing watching and
guarding our institutions will be the
price of liberty. Industry is rising
