"The independence of Austria Is in abeyance with the consent of the council of the League of Nations. Consequently Austria undertakes, in the absence of the consent of the said council to abstain from any act which might directly or indirectly by any means whatsoever Comprom- ise her independence. particularly un- til her admission to the League of Nations. by the participation in the affairs of another power"
 It is understood that the treaty, as handed to the Austrians, contains unchanged the clause giving guaran- tees to minOrities in countries annex ing parts of the former Austrian em- pire. Accordingly. there is much speculation in Paris as to whether the Rumanians wi1i sign the treaty. The supreme council has asked the Rumanian delegation who is going to sign for Rumania but thus far has received no reply.
 The representatives of Rumania
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1919-09-03

have frequently made 1t clear that the attitude of their government and dele gatiOn would be firm on this ques- ton They have pointed out that the Rouma2ian favored clauses in the League of Nations covenant guaran- teeing the rights and equality of all classes and races but that these were voted down. only to be inserted af- terward in separate treaties for ap- plication to chosen countries.
 The Roumanians consider, accord ingly, that they are the victims of discrimination. The peace conference they hold, by insisting on these clauses, inteferes with the internal affairs of countries, making laws which the people of the countries themselves are unable to revise.
 However, rumOrs current that the Rumanian delegates will refuse to sign are at least premature for it is learned at the headquarters of the delegation that no final decision has been taken regarding signature of the treaty

Chicago, Sept. 3>---The Tationa1 So- cialist party. the parent organization. and the two 1nsErgent groups, the Communist Labor party, formerly the left wing of the main party, and the ComnnInist party, the foreign lan- guage radicals. after three days of chaotic meetings, began work in ear nest here today to formulate consti- tutionS and platforms.
 The Communist Labor party, which came into betng yesterday as q result of the fight on the parent body, was expected to map out plan of action today. There was a possibility. some said, that the new party might join with the Communists.
 The meeting of Communists was thrown into commotion when detec- tiyes arrested Dennis E. Bait, reputed to 55s a norsanizeF for the I, w. w., and took him from the hall. They had been searching for him for e week on 8 charge of making q seditious speech, He was released on 1000 bail

SEEK RELATIVES
 OF MAN KILLED
 DURING QUARREL

The police department of Dunkirk, N. T., has requested the Bridgeport police to establish the identity of a man by the name of Martin Kerwin, who was murdered in that city on August 27, and who was believed to be a former resident of Bridge port.
 According to reports received by the local officers, Kerwin resided in Dunkirk for the past six years. He told a number of his friends that he lived in Bridgeport at one time and attended St Augustine's church, in Golden Hill street.
 Kerwin was employed by the New York Central Railroad O., and was working on a construction job near Dunkirk, on August 27. He became involved in an argument with a fel- low workman, and was struck over the head by the laborer and fatally injured. He died few days ago in the Brookes Memorial hospital in Dunkirk

Asserts Foreign Relation Comm. Seeks to Kill
 Treaty Entirely.
MIXTURE OF FOLLY
 AND POLTROONERY"

Vashin=ton. Sept S-Declaring the real purpose of the Foreign Relations Committee majority in amending the peace treaty was to kill the treaty entirely and that such q course would be suicidal to the United States, Sen atur Hitchcock, of Nebraska, Demo cratic leader. asserted in a Senate speech today that the majority of the Senator's wouId never accept any of the committee changes
 The treaty opponents, he said. 1crsvI on tho round with O micro scope ~oarchiEf for pitfaIIs'' in the League of Nations and overlook sub s1andal benefits which the treaty would bring the nation Tho pro- pCsaI of Senator Knox, Republican, Pen1sylvania, that the treaty be re- jectsd and a separate peace made with Germany was characterized by the speaker as pure folly. Those who talk this way evidently have no conception Of the enormous benefits which ths United States derives from the treaty, Hitchcock said.
 ''In article z81, Germany Is com pelled 10 aooept full responsibility for tho damages caused by the war. Does anyone think if we undertook to ne- gotiats a separate treaty with Ger many, Germany would make any such concessions to the United States- Germany might say she had never de- oIared war on inc United States that it was the United States which forced war upon her
 Take the matter of German prop erty in the United States. Under this treaty all acts of the United States and of the allen property custodian with regard to that property are vail dated unless Germany can show ac- tual fraud Is anyone insane enough to suppose that Germany will volun- tari1y make that concession to us if -ve lose the hold upon her which this treaty gives? Suppose Germany points to tho treaties of 17e9 and 1928 under which we agreed to re- speCt the private property of German nationals in the United States.
 ''This treaty creates q commission called the reparations committee. Trn0uestionably it will be the most powerful International body ever ere ated. It receives from Germany all reparations paid and distributes them to the various nations. Does any ono think under the circumstances the United States can afford not to have a representative on the repara- lions commission?
 gro my mind it would be suicidal 10 throw away the advantages and benefits provided in this treaty It would be disastrous commercially and financially.

London. Sept. 3.-Great enthusias- tie demonstrations were held at Cairo and Alexandria on Saturday and sun day in consequence of the receipt or a telegram declaring that the Foreign Relations Committee of the United States Senate had declared that Egypt should be independent, accord ing to a Cairo dispatch to the Daily Mail. It is said that Saidc Pasha ZaEloul, head of the Egyptian Natlon- al DeputatiOn in Paris, was the au- thor of the telegram to Cairo
 No action has been taken by the 11o-aion Relations Committee of the Senate regarding Egypt that would seem to warrant demonstrat tlons Tn that country. The committee recent ly gave a hearing in which the claims of the Egyptian Nationalists were voiced but no further action has been taken by the committee.

Because 1t appears impossible at present to get a clear version of the events just before the killing of Jas. Banco last Sunday morning, Coroner Phelan has asked the police depart ment to SCOUT the neighborhood for additional witnesses.
 In the meantime he has continued the inquest indefinitely. The wit nesses at yesterdays hearing testified in a general way that Louis Minga- rello and Banco had a dispute about Mingarello's attentions to Mrs. Ban co, but the testimony on this point was so vague that the coroner wants more testimony.

MAY BRING
 CANNED GOODS
 HERE FOR SALE

Members of the Municipal Food Committee met this noon with Mayor
 Wilson at city hall to consider the
 next item of surplus government food to be brought to Bridgeport. It was expected that a decision would be reached in favor of canned goods and that arrangements would start shortly to bring a supply of canned vegeta- bles to Bridgeport for sale through the fire stations.
 The members of the committee have had under advisement for some time the articles that would be most de- siraibIe and have been at work to de- termine approximately the quantity that Bridgeporters will want. It is probable that when the goods arrive, they will be sold in case lots, the num- Der of cans per case in the majority of instances being two dozen.
