AUSTRIA FORCED WAR
Minutes of Mutiny of Privy Coun-
Gil Reveal Secret.
Count Won BerchtoId Solely Respon.
sible for Outbreak OF
Hostiities.

Vienna.-There were made public
from the archives of the former Aus
ro-Hungarian government minutes of
the meeting of the privy council on
July Z, 1914, at which it was virtually
decided to begin war on Serbia.
According to this publication the
ministry of Austria Hungary, especial
ly Count Leopold Won Berchtold,
foreign minister. was solely RESPONSE
BILE for the outbreak of hostilities.
The minutes show the meeting to
have been opened by Count Won Berch-
told, who pleaded for an immediate
resort to arms against Serbia, stating
that Italy and Roumania "could be
compensated afteiysard for not hav-
ing been consulted beforehand"
Count Stephen Tisza, then Hungar-
ian premier, opposed the war, demand
ing that diplomatic action be taken
first and then that an ultimatum of an
acceptable nature be sent. Only in
case both failed would he have resort
ed to arms.
Count Won Berchtold thereupon said
Now, Is the right moment because
Germany is ready to assist"
Count Tisza again warned against
the danger of a general European war
as result of steps which were con-
templated, whereupon Count Won
Berchtold said: 1.-THE opportunity is so
favorable that immediate action is
necessary"
Finally resolution was adopted
that such far-reaching demands be
made of Serbia that she could not full
fill them and thus way would be
opened to resort to arms.

WHO ARE THE MIDDLE CLASS
Brain Workers Who Are Compelled to
Do Manual Labor to Exc Out
an Existence.

Few forces tend so strongly to pro-
duce social consciousness as a griev-
ance. Not so many years g one
might have searched the world and
found nobody who would admit he
was of the middle class, remarks the
New York Times. The term was an
epithet used In derision. As the mid
die class was vaguely supposed to be
respectable, responsibility itself went
out of fashion. Today all this is al
| tered. People write to the papers to
/ say they are of the middle class and
they say Is with an air Of one who
after all is somebody. Yet nobody has
defined the middle class, even the
sociologists and economists, whose
business such things are.
In England W. Il. Mallock gave a
, few stray thoughts to the subject and
concluded 1t is middle class to have an
income of some S780. Prof. 81. r.
Seager stated in America the figure
would have to be raised to $1,16O. 1t
is the way Of the elder sociologists to
write as II the determining factor Is
always money.
Our common sense knows better.
The middle class Is distinguished from
| the class on its one hand by the fact
| that 1t works, not with ones body. but
with its mind. 1t is distinguished from
| the class on its other hand by the fact
! that, not having sufficient capital to re-
tire upon, 1t has to work. The middle
class man is a brain worker, who Is
obliged to work or 60 under. And be Is
obliged to conform to current stand
ards of responsibility, physically as
well as mentally and morally.
In the nineteenth century the in
come standards had at least a shadow
Of justification, for wages and salaries
still maintained some definite relation
ship to the character of work done
and service rendered. Today we have
changed all that and with one notable
result. A large group of people among
us have become class consclous-those,
namely, who do professional work for
less than the pay of a hand laborer.
Mentally and morally they have two
strong props Of characteristic fact
that the instrument Of their labor Is
the mind and the fact that they are
urged on by necessity to use It
