LENINE'S PROPAGANDA PORTRAIT

This is an official picture of Le-
nine, otherwise Vladimir nytch Uli-
anoff. 1t is from a propaganda por-
trait on sale during the present Lenine-
Trotzky rule. 1t doubtless presents
the soviet leader at his best.

portant Born on April 10, 1870. he is
hereditary noble" and the son Of
a state councillor of the Simbirsk gov
ernment. Brought up in the orthodox
faith, he was educated at the Simbirsk
gymnasium and at the University of
Kazan, from which town, however, he
was speedily banished on account of
his socialist proclivities. Revolution
seems to run in his family, and his
brother Alexander was executed as a
terrorist in 1887. Lenine is married to
Nadejda Krupsckaia, former political
exile, to whom he is said to be most
devoted.

PARTS IN TREATY TO Be
ACCEPTED BY AUSTRlANS
Is Remarkable Chiefly for Its omfs-
sions-Government Must Respect
Rights of All Racial Nations.

Paris-A summary of the Austrian
treaty submitted to the smaller ma
tions Friday for examination is re-
markable chiefly for its omissions and
reservations Subject heading after
subject heading is followed either by
noncommittal display of blank paper
or by the statement: This clause re-
served"
This applies particularly to defin1-
tion of the southern frontier, the rep
arations clauses and the question OF
Italian rights under the political
clauses The greater part of the sum-
mary, in fact, is devoted to those
clauses which are practically identical
with the German treaty.
The new clauses are chiefly those
dealing with frontiers, finance and the
internal affairs of the new states and
of Austria itself. Under the latter
heading some of the disputed provisos
for the protection of racial minorities
in the new states, against which, it is
understood, the representatives of the
new states may address protest to
the council of four and also ask for
revision of the financial clauses.
Austria also is bound by the treaty
to respect the rights and provisions OF
racial Ininorities in what is left to her
of her ancient domains. including the
right to use their own languages.
n7b ,,;u icf nf
amble and IA parts, the preamble and
section / embodying the covenant OF
the league of nations, as the treaty
with Germany.
Part 2 deals with frontiers. That of
Czecho-Slovakia follows practically the
old Bohemian frontier, although with
the reservation of making minor
changes later. Austria retains on the
west her old frontier with Switzerland
the question of the union of Vorarl-
berg and Switzerland having apparent
ly been dropped. The southern from
tier is not determined in the treaty.
Part contains political clauses, in
cluding also some of the reserved geo.
graphical proyisos, the clauses estab-
fishing mixed commissions to deter
mine them later. The sections refer
ring to Italy are all omitted. Others
deal with the future relations Of Aus
tria with Czecho-Slovakia, Jugoslavia,
Poland, Hungary and Russia. Here are
found the stipuIations for the protec-
ton of racial minorities.
Then comes parts dealing with Aus
tria's remuneration Of all rights out
side of Europe, military, naval and
aerial ornaments, which hereafter will
entail virtually no expense for Aus
tria, and the return of prisoners of
war.
Part s, on reparations, is blank.
Part 9, dealing with finance, may be
changed as result of the representa-
tions of the new states. The econo-
mic clauses and aerial navigation reg
ulations are identical with those in the
German treaty.
Part II, on ports, waterways and
railways. provides for commercial out
lets southwark by water and rail.
These details have already been re-
ported by the interallied ports, water
ways and railways commission.
Part 13 contains the international
labor convention, and part II various
miscellaneous provisions of minor i'm
portance.
