to statement issued by the executive
committee Of the General Labor Fedora
ton after a meeting last night The
committee announced that another meet
ing would be held to-day to discuss final
plans for the general strike proposed
for Monday.
Marcel Hutin, in the echo de Paris"
declares, however, that the meeting of
the executive committee to-day was
called to consider the indefinite post
ponement of the strike. He says the
National Railroaders' Union has re-
ceived seventeen protests against the
strike from its provincial branches.

under no apprehension as TO events on
Monday, and maintains that among the
organizations favoring a general strike
barely 20 per cent of the members will
60 out.
The journal" announced that the
Union of Dramatic Arts has decided to
participate in the general strike. The
Paris transportation workers, 4, ADDS
also will go out, but there probably will

Austrians Don't Want
Too Many Ambassadors
Question of Precedence Raised
by Appointment of Brockdorff-
Rantzau From Germany

VIENNA, July 16 (By The Associ-
ated Press).-The appointment of
Count Won Brockdorff- Rantzau as Ger
many's Ambassador to Austria raises
the question of precedence in the dip
lomatic corps, as it is understood Great
Britain and the United States will send
only ministers here. On the other
hand, it is asserted that France pur-
poses to be represented by an Ambas-
sador The Austrians are reported to
be unwilling to burden the nation with
the expense Of big-titlcd foreign SER
vice.
Count Won Brockdorff- Rantzau will
assume the post made vacant a fort
night ago through the retirement Of
Count Won Wedel, a member Of the old
German regime, who, is said to have
felt uncomfortable as head Of the EN-
bassy, especially as he had to deal
with Socialists.
PARIS, July II (By The Associated
Press. There are no American con-
suls in German ports as yet. British,
French and other European consuls al
ready are clearing ships. The Amcri-
can Relief Administration has cleared
in German ports two food supply ships
and one with cotton, but Director
General Hoover refuses to issue papers
to additional ships without legal au-
thority.
The cotton cargo was for Czccho-
Slovakia. Tho foodships carried car

Allies Ask Compulsory
Work Laws in Germany
Troops and 100000 Civilians
Needed for French Repa-
ration Task

BERLIN, July II (By The Associated
Press). - Allied representatives have
told the German delegation at Versailles,
circles, that Germany must be prepared
to introduce measures for compulsory
work, if necessary. This. it was said,
was intended as means of bringing
about prompt execution of the repara-
tion work in Northern France, utiliz-
ing troops and half million civilian
laborers
Officials here said the Allied con-
ferences on this subject were con-
Quoted in friendly spirit. These Of
ficials agreed that Germany has a
problem in her labor troubles.
All Pomerania is aroused over the
proclamation Of martial law there and
the order prohibiting workmen from
striking. The workmen insist that mar
tial law be abolished, that prisoners
arrested during the present strike be
released and that recognition be ex-
tended the workmen's councils.
The gas, electric and water plants
at Stettin, capital Of Pomerania, have
been shut down and every street car
in the city has been stopped. Latest
reports say the strike is gaining force,
but officials hope to keep food shops
open with troops. This is hold to be
most important, as harbor traffic has
ceased. Workers on farms are reported
to have ceased their labors, but are
said to be quiet.
The final clauses of the peace treaty
to be presented the Austrian delegates
are nearing completion, and the docu-
ment will be delivered shortly.
COPENHAGEN, July 1.-THE strike
of agricultural laborers in the Franz
burg district Of Pomerania is being
put down vigorously by German troops,
according to a dispatch from Grcifs-
valid The soldiers have occupied the
estates and are forcing the laborers to
return to work. Fifteen members Of
the executive committee Of the labor

NeW York Tribune

Foreign Press Bureau
"The Morning POST" of London,
prints the following account of the
Communist government in Budapest,
which, 1t says, it has received from a
correspondent who has viewed the
Hungarian soviet from the inside:
The Budapest Communists are allied
with the local Bolsheviki. Three weeks
before the revolution thirty were ar
rested, including Bella Kun Cor Cohen)
Alpari and Bella Vago. These three
were so severely handled that they
were thought to be dead. 1t was Count
Karolyi who handed the country over
to the Socialists. The Bolshevst lead
ers in Budapest, just as in Russia,
poured forth flood of declarations of
policy, propaganda and legislation.
Their main scheme was simple
enough. The state was to take over
the ownership of all public and private
property. Every citizen was to receive
fixed wage and to pay fixed rent and
fixed price for every commodity No
hand, since it was necessary to have a
Dictatorship of the Proletariat" until
people had ceased to yearn after the
old order, or, to use the words of AL
pari, a member Of the government, "un-
til they had ceased to be blinded by the
glorious light Of the new free lifc,
there must be unquestioning obedience
to the government on the part of every
citizen on pain Of death. Thus the

idling or striking; the civil servant
must be content with his salary and
with such promotion as might come his
way; the shopkeeper must make a
faithful inventory Of his stock and turn
it over to the government, and the
bourgeois must take what was allowed
him out Of his former income and be
thankful that he was allowed anything
at all.
Bella Kun ar Actor
There are thirty-two Bolshevist of.
fee holders in the government, of whom
twenty-five are Jews. Several commits
saries are assigned to each department

newspapers, is the least important

the issue of the revolution hangs upon
his life, he is always to be seen with q
personal bodyguard of six armed sol

his bedroom door day and night, anc

life is in no danger whatever. He is

Furuseth Denies 1. ". W.
Plot In Shin Strike

Andrew FuruCeth, international
president of the Seamen's Union, who
came to New York yesterday in hope
of arranging for the settlement of the
seamen's strike, laughed when told of
the Lusk committees disclosures of
an l. w. w. programme for organizing
the seamen on international lines.
'If it is the programme to make it
appear that this is an I. W. w. propo-
sition," said he, "the appearance of
l: w. W. circulars in Spanish advising
the strikers to return to work and de-
nouncing the Seamen's Union is an
tributed here and in other ports?

OUR COUNTRY NEEDS

to arouse itself in the development of
fertile but now inaccessible, farm
lands, by the construction Of good
roads and the means of prompt and ef-
flcient hauling between the farm and
the town.
A farm situated on a good road and
using motor truck transportation is
independent of the railroad.
Indeed the farmer can select his
own markets, operate on his own
schedule OF hauling, at cheaper rates
Of delivery, than if his farm were To-
Gated on the railroad.
An 80-mile a day haul is no uncoT-
mon task for the Indiana Farm Truck.
