STRINCENCY
 IS RELIEVED
President Takes Care of Situation by Allotment
 From Special Fund.

Washington, March 24-Ffnancial stringency of the war risk insurance bureau was relieved today by a mes sage from President Wilson to Secre- tary Glass saying the President had made an allotment from his emer- genCy war fund to pay expenses of the bureau until Congress appropri- a.tes at the next session. The amount allotted was not specified.
 Treasury officials have estimated a little more than three milton dollars will be needed to pay the bureaus ex- penses until the middle of May, when congress may be called in special ses- sion.
 This action of the President means that there is no immediate danger of allotment and allowance checks or renittances for insurance or compen- satton being held up by a forced re- duction of clerical help within the bureau.

The problem before the Council of Ten is not the fate of the German cables, or the Teschen commission, but the imperative necessity of hay ing Poland and Rumania rebuild the watertight compartment which has collapsed he continues. Other wise Germany, declaring herself alone in a position to save western civiIiza- ton, will lay down her own peace terms instead of those the Allies pro- pose to dictate to her, or will threaten to take the lead in the Bolshevik movement"
 This extract from an editorial ac- curately reflects the views of the foreign editors of French newspapers. Some may express reserve as to how far the movement is inspired by Ger many, but they generally agree in placing the principal blame for the event on the procrastinatIon of the Peace Conference and in insisting upon immediate steps to fight Bolshe- YiSnl.

 Menace to Europe.

London, March 24-The revolution in Hungary caused great excitement in Vienna but did not surprise those who were aware of the true condition of affairs, says the Vienna. correspon- dent of the Telegraph. He says the Communists of Hungary have long been the real masters of the country and have been only awaiting an op- portunity to get rid of Count Karolyi, who is considered to have been never more than a figure head.
 The respondent declares there are no elements in Hungary capable of making a stand against the ex- tremists and that even in Czecho- 5lovakia. there gre strong Bolsheviki influences. He pointed out that ex- perts agree there is grave danger of Bohemia following the example of Hungary. The situation is ettribut- ed by the correspondent to the failure of the Peace Conference in Paris to recognize the seriousness of the situ- ation and occupy Budapest with En- tente troops.
 He says the only way to save the situation is to send American or Brit ish forces there, but adds:
 Where a battalion would have sufhced formerly, brigade. would be necessary pow.'
 The Hungarian revolution and the reported alliance of the new govern ment with the Russian Soviet, which is considered here as grave menace to Europe, has given rise to new crit icism here of delays in the Peace Conference proceedings. The Globe referring to the situation in Hungary says:
 That is the natural consequence o1 the delay of the Peace Conference 1T making peace, and if the delay con tinues we will have worse conse quences still. All this discussion ot l the League Covenant before even 2 preliminary peace has been reached simply encourages the spread of Bol sheviki disease and gives our chic enemy opportunities for intrigues."
