Secretary of Navy Requests Fuel Law Be in Effect
 Until Peace Declared

WASHINGTON, Dec. 24.-Continu- Gtion of the Lever act, repeal of which is provided in a bill already passed by the house. is "vitally i'm portant" to insure an adequate fuel supply for the navy at reasonable prices. Secretary Daniels declared in statement tonight. He urged con tinuation of the act "at least until peace has been formally declared"
 Only by exercise of the command eering authority conferred under the act, the secretary said. has the navy in purchasing it's coal been able 10 avoid the profiteering prices de manded by suppliers." More than seven million tons of coal. according to the statement. has been command eered by the navy in the last three years at prices ranging from $2,00 a ton at the mines in October, 1917. to SPA last September.

 Is Close to End

WASHINGTON, Dec. 24.-By direc- tiOn of the president, initial steps were taken todap for withdrawal of American control over affairs of the Dominican republic.
 A proclamation announcing this purpose was issued at San Domingo by Rear Admiral Thomas Sncwden, military povernor. Its text was made public here. By its terms the friend ly purposes of American military in tervention in the island in 1916 are declared to be substantially achiev- ed" and simple processes" inaugur- ated for rapid withdrawal from the responsibilities assumed in connec- tion with Dominican affairs"
 A Dominican commission, aided by an American adviser, viii be named by Admiral Snowden to formulate amendments to the Dominican constr tuition and draft new election laws. When approved by the military gov ernor, there will be submitted 10 a constitutional convention and the Dominican government to which the affairs of the republic will be turned over
 An accompanying announcement by the state department said tran quility prevailed in the republic; that Dominican finances had been placed on a stable basis; education and san itation advanced and the people flor the first time in many years had been able to devote themselpes to peaceful pursuits

R. Howard president of the American Farm Bureau Fedora tion, today to the senate agriculture and banking committees.
 Towards plan as outlined to the committees in joint session would pro vide for the extension of credits by having such securities as foreign coun- tries might be able to give for the pur- chase of American farm products handled by the war finance corpora ton either through selling them to American investors or by issuing de bentures based on such securities. Howard emphasized that his plan Glu not involve putting the treasury be- hind such credits
 In the case of Germany the farm bureau federation president suggested that the American credit be made a first lien on all the resources and in
 
 come of that country by taking prior ity over the claims Of the allies for reparations. Such step, he said. would be possible under the Versailles treaty and the only thing necessary would be to obtain the consent or the allied governments.
 The federal reserve board, through Governor Harding suggested to Chair man Mclean of the banking com mittee. introduction and consideration of bill authorizing federal land banks to make direct loans to the public for agricultural purposes and authorizing the secretary of the treasury to zee posit funds with. or purchase the de bentures of these banks

Austrian Heroes
 And Court NObles
 Starve in Vienna

VIENNA. Dec 24-FieId Marshal starving to death in Vienna.
 With a pension of $250 a week, this old warrior just manages to keep body and soul together by going to the free kitchens for one miserable meal a day
 General Baron ForStner, S4 years old. and Baroness Forstner, once fig ures at the Vienna court. are in a worse fix with pension of S5 a month. They get little meat once :: week, the rest of the time living on dishes concocted by the baroness from black bread, turnips and horse sausage.
 Suffering Widespread.
 Nearly 00,000 former governmen, officials and their families are trying to exist on $1 month per family. More than 30.00O families are home less.
 The sidewalks of the main streets of once gay Vienna are lined with beggars and cripples.
 The social democratic government is looking after the working people. They are not starving, though there is much sickness among their children.
 It is the middle and professional classes that are in dire want
 Frau Adler wife of government of ficial, is running kitchen restaurants for the middle classes and is feeding 250.000 day.
 Vienna Worst Hit.
 The writer has been in all the coun- tries that were in the war. The bur den of the struggle and the greater burden of the peace have fallen most on the Austrian capital.
 It's greatness was dimmed when the peace treaty took away from Aus tria her gTanaries, her factories and her raw materials in Bohemia, Nor avia, Slovakia, Silesia and in much of what is now Jugo-Slavia.
 Austria is particularly in need of coal and longtime credits from the United States and England.
