CHAMBERLAIN STIRS
BRITAIN BY WARNING
Need of Cutting Nations
Huge Expenses Emphasized
by ALI Parties.

LONDON, Aug. g. Great Britain's
financial condition, which J. Austen
Chamberlain, Chancellor of the Ex-
chequer, told the House OF Commons last
night shows the country is headed for
bankruptcy. has brought forward to-day
by the newspapers as the most vital
problem Of the hour, even overshadowing
labor troubles.
The Chancellor's statement rsAsntly
tina. British expenses are four and one
half million pounds daily came as a dis
tinct shock to the country but was en-
phasized by the details given by Mr..
Chamberlain last night.
1t was remarked by some of the news
papers that this constituted a criticism
of the Cabinet of which he is a member,
but his view was Endorsed by Premier
Lloyd George.
Virtually every newspaper in London
Joined to-day q chorus OF condemnation
of the national expenditures, and news
papers hostile to the Government criti-
cised 1t for IT'S rash. wasteful extrava-
gance." The House OF Commons. II was
remarked. was largely responsible be-
cause it surrendered control of ex-
penditures.
The Daily News declared "even the
present House of Commons Is at last
1 y
prodigality and Its total lack of any
policy designed TO stay the country's
| headlong career toward bankruptcy"
The newspaper fixed on the army and
navy as the chief causes of extrava-
gance, condemned the maintenance OF
the present great military force and
deprecated the proposal of the United
States to create "a standing army of a
half million" which, II said. may well
be hailed as a setback to the whole
cause OF disarmament"
The Daily Mail, which announced that
the forthcoming second report of the
Air Ministry will contain amazing reve-
lations OF extravaganza more sensational
than any yet divulged. said the Govern
ment's extravaganza Is one of the direct
causes OF labor unrest
The newspaper added that IL the pres
emit Government cannot reduce expenses
one must be found that can. The news
papers generally expressed the hope
that the public. which so far has seemed
unappreclative OF the danger. may be
aroused to heed the Chancellor's warn
ing.
The country is INDUCING in an orgy
of spending, several OF the newspapers
remarked, and is contributing thereby
to the high cost OF living. People who
temporarily have relatively great wealth
II was said. are willing TO pay any
price rather than forego qualification
OF their desires, so that while necessi-
ties OF life are higher than ever there
never was so much money spent on lux
uries. All those who deal in jewelry
automobiles. costly apparel and enter
talnments OF all sorts were said to be
doing unprecedented business.
The cry against prohteers was said
| by the newspapers to be voiced by
these reckless spenders as well as by
the poor. but actual cases OF profiteer-
ing are rarely followed up success
fully. In this connection. II was said.

General March. who continued his tes-
timony on the War Departments bill

RUMANIAN ENVOY
BLAMES ARMY MEN
Peace Council Greatly Con.
cerned by Situation.


PARIS, Aug. S-Nichoias Hisu of the
Rumanian peace delegation was called
to-day for the second time before the
Supreme Council on account of the Ru-
manians' refusal to comply with the de
mands Of the Peace Conference. In con-
versation with members Of the Council
NJ. Hisu denied that Rumania had
broken away from the Peace Confer
ence. His explanation of the situation
in Budapest was that Rumanian officers
there had ignored the Supreme Councils
orders.
The attitude of the Rumanians Is
causing great embarrassment to the
Supreme Council, II Is understood, and
the Council is discussing practically
nothing else.
Rumania, II was said to-day in some
quarters, declared herself an ally OF the
Entente in order to gain economic and
financial aid. The United States, II was
pointed out, extended a credit of $780,
o00. 900 and the other allies advanced a
like amount for feeding Rumania.
Attitude Surprising.
Rumania's violation of the Peace Con-
ference's orders at this time when the
harvest renders her temporarily self
supporting is said to have surprised con-
ference members who hold that Ruma-
MAS economic future depends upon the
Allies good will. They expressed re-
sentiment at the unofficial statement of
the Rumanians that Germany will help
them II the Allies do not.
The supreme councils warning note

well informed Pertinax writing in the
Echo de Pdrts, rs a call to order AMI
Rumania seems to have decided to make
concessions in form II not in fact. He
said II was probable an agreement will

pest, Pertinax said. is the first OF the

Hungary II It acts as a warning to the
holders of certain illusions"
The French newspapers generally COM
ment upon Hungarian events as being
very obscure, and most of the writers
reserve judgment on affairs at Budapest.
Calls Archduke an Enemy.
The FiOero, commenting upon the
Archduke, said he SIS a Magyar and
therefore a resolute, traditional enemy
OF France, and this Is enough to Justify
our mistrust and. II necessary, rigor-

SEE SURE COLLAPSE
OF GERMAN AUSTRIA
Vienna Officials Believe Bur-
dens Imposed Cannot
Be Undertaken.
INJUSTICE IS CHARGE
Appeal to Peace Mission Tells
of Children Who Are
Starving.

CoPENHAorN, Aug. 7 (delayed).-A
summary of the Austrian note. presented
yesterday to the allied peace mission
at st. German. France. has been re-
ceived here from Vienna.
IL German Austria's territorial de-
mands are fulfilled to the minimum ex-
tent maintained for in the appendix to
the note" says the summary. German
Austria will make efforts 70 believe she
can live Independently and in peace in
this territory. She expects the League
of Nations will hear her in her hour of
distress
ION the other hand, German Austria
still Is firmly convinced that the eco
nomio burdens imposed upon her by the
peace treaty cannot really be carried
out. and that II they are not substan-
tally llghtened she Is bound to collapse"
Dealing with the economic and hnan-
cial clauses Of the peace treaty, the note
continues:
at viii be impossible for the next few
months to deliver milking cows and cat
tie, as German Austria's children are
perishing for lack of meat and milk.
German Austria must allow herself to be
placed under the Entente Powers finan-
cial control. but she expects the repatria-
ton committee will act with the con-
sideration demanded by her desperate
position and grant German Austria the
necessary credits to obtain raw mate
rails and foodstuffs"
The note urges amendment. with a
view to investing a commission with
plenary powers regarding all economic
| and financial peace conditions It then
argues at length regarding "the unjust
| and unequal dlsivion of old Austria's
debts among the States which succeeded
1t md the injustice OF stipulations re-
garding war loans"
at seems self-evident," the note con-
| tinues. that all States in what formerly
was Austria Hungary should divide the
| debts of the old monarchy. Apart from
the bank note debt clauses In the peace
| treaty show a burden Of debt for Ger
| man Austria of some 10000, 000, 900
| marks. Thus two-thirds of the entire
debt of the Austrian States, without the
| note debt, Is placed on the shoulders Of
| one-fifth Of the former population
The note proposes, as in the case Of
prewar debts. that all debts shall be
! divided by the Preparations Commission
| according to the ability OF Individual
States to meet them. A similar proposal
Is made regarding Austro- Hungarian
| bank notes held abroad.
The note concludes with reference
to settling accounts between German
Austria and other States of the former
| monarchy. declaring that stipulations
| not capable OF fulnlment must be re-
moved and these questions regulated by
| the Preparations Commission in order not
, to prolong the peace negotiations.
1T would be of indisputable value for
all parties" the note adds, "if the men,
bers of the German Austrian deputation
were heard and called upon TO give oral
explanations before the committees
The note Is accompanied by extensive
proposals on territorial and political
questions.
