Jewish Trouble in Austria

former Austrian Parliament and the
present German-Austrian National
Assembly, in all, 213 representatives,
of whom 81 were Jews, as follows:
In the Parliament If 1897, 8 Social
list representatives included / Jew.
In the Parliament of 1901 7 Socialis
representatives included Jews.
In the Parliament of 1907, 48 Social
list representatives included Jews.
In the Parliament of 1911 40 Social
list representatives, included 9 Jews.
In the Provisional German-Austrian
National Assembly of 1918 of SO rep
resenttives 8 were Jews.
In the Constitutional German-Aus-
trian National Assembly of 1919 Of II
representatives % were Jews.
Let us mention the fact that among
all these Jews there is not one who
would openly declare himself to be an
adherent of Judaism. Many of them
proclaim themselves without any re-
ligion, or even have Joined the Chris
tian church but in this list every jew
ish convert is Jew, for converted
Jew if a member of the Socialist par
ty, remains Jew, but where he hap
pens to be among the leaders Of the
Christian Socialists nobody will urge
that "the people Of Israel control the
destinies of the Christian Socialist
party.
As matters stand, the populace be-
comes very much excited against the
Jews, and many begin to believe that
the precarious conditions now prevail
ing in German-Austria are due to the
Jews. That the bloody five years war
was caused by the anti-Semitic reac-
tionary and Chauvinist leaders Of the
former German Empire, and their i'm
perialism is the cause Of the present
trouble, nobody dares to admit. The
typical German-Austrian does not in
tend to discover the proper means for
the alienation of his condition or the
betterment Of the economic state OF
the country, but will keep on seeking
ways and means Of how to keep the
Jew down. To be sure, first legal
methods are resorted to, viz: per
centage norm," at the universities like
in the erstwhile Russia or present day
Hungary, so as to prevent the schools
from becoming "the hunting grounds

Eastern Jews from the country will be

beginning his speech. Il have stated
that the business of the state is be-
ing run in such manner that for

less than the amount appropriated
by the legislature for this purpose.
The World Herald has attempted to
represent that there will be a defi-
cit. But I know the figures here
and you know that figures don't lie,
though there is no way to keep liars
from figuring.
During the biennium preceding
the administration there was defi-
cit of $300,000 in the cost OF run
ming the state government.
There has been much agitation
about pardons and furloughs of
prisoners i'll the penitentiary. Here
are the figures. Governor Neville
issued 443 pardons. I have issued
l56. Governor Morehead began the

Possibility Of New

Dusseldorf, April 18.-There is no
evidence the government troops now
i'll the Essen district are not fully
controlled by the officers, nor the
officers by the government. When
the time for withdrawal comes there
is likely to be new crisis. There
are two kinds of troops, the south
erners, who are peaceful and faith
tul, and the Balticers, who are brutal
and uncomfortable. There is onlv
one kind of officers, the militarists
and monarchists.
The French occupation of Frank
tort strengthened the militarists.
who argue it was the fault of the
weak socialistic government.
Committees were formed among
the reichswehr similar to soldiers
councils. They are now bringing
complaints to the officers.
Throughout the reichswehr occu-
pied zone the army and not the
civilian officials are ruling and paw
ing little attention to Berlin's in
structions. The officers are conduct
ing courts-martial and ordering cx-
ecutions. A new police force is be-
ing built from the reichswehr and
not from the workingmen of their
home towns as agreed. This is a
point to consider in estimating the
army strength and also that OF the
old formations.

WORST BLIZZARD

WESTERN STATES
Denver Snowbound and Storm
Is Raging in Western
Nebraska.

Denver, Col, April 18.-The sec
ond day Of the blizzard prevailing
in Denver brought almost complete
paralysis to all railroads entering
Denver and so completely blockaded
the streets of the city that no traffic
except street cars will be permitted
in the downtown section Monday by
order of the mayor.
Predict Stock Loss.
Ellsworth, Neb., April 1S.-(Spe-
tial Telegram. "A blizzard that to-
day has completely tied up train
service has been raging in western
Nebraska since yesterday morning.
The storm began Friday afternoon
with a heavy downpour of rain and
has been continuous, changing to
snow IA hours later. 1t is feared that
the long duration of storm with no
signs OF abatement at this hour will
cause great loss of stock, as many
ranch men have been short Of feed
and cattle are in very weakened
condition. Aside from this deplor-
able prospect the moisture due to
storm is most promising for the fu-
ture of the country, as there has
been general deficiency OF rain i'll

Reason for Action Said to Be
That Radical Ideas Were
One of Chief Causes Of
SWitChmen's Strike.
OTHER BROTHERHOODS
ALSO MAY WITHDRAW
Declaration of w. G. Lee,
Grand Chief, That He Would
Support General Wood Said
to Be Factor in Split.

Chicago Tribune Omaha Bee Leased Wire.
Washington. Aphril lS.-It was un-.
derstood here tonight that the Broth
erhood of Railway Trainmen has
either withdrawn as a member OF
the Plumb plan league, or intends
to do so Immediately. 2umors that
the other three brotherhoods, engi-
neers, firemen and conductors, pro-
pose to follow the example of the
trainmen could not be confirmed,
and it is believed that they do not
expect to.
Various reasons are given for the
withdrawal of the support of the
tranmen, the chief among them be-
ing that this brotherhood has dis
covered that Plumb plan propaganda,
with its radical ideas, had been one
of the chief causes of the late "out-
law" strike. The men who walked
out in such unauthorized fashion in
Chicago were mainly members of the
brotherhood. w. G. Lee, grand
chief of the brotherhood, denounced
the strike as against his principles
and ideas. In return body of the
strikers recently defiantly said they
were through with Bill Lee"
Lee to Support Wood.
Another reason ascribed is that
the officers of the Plumb Plan
league we're enraged when Mr.. Lee
recently declared he would support
General Wood as, the presidential
candidate in the Ohio primaries.
This public avowal led to a show
down, it is said, in which Mr.. Lee
determined that he would shake off
all allegiance with the Plumb league.
General Wood has announced him
self hostile to all forces of disorder,
and the Plumb plan league is class
ed as one of these. It's theories of
government ownership have found
no favor with the general.
The brotherhood of Railway
Trainmen has never been enthusi-
astic over the Plumb plan, whereas
the engineers have supported it
heartily. Warren S. Stone, grand
chief of the engineers, is one Of the
moving spirits in the league. He is
expected in Washington tomorrow,
but it was said tonight that his visit
would be solely in connection with
rail wage demands.
