ASBURY PARK. N. J., Aug. 29.- Senator Borah of Idaho urged an au- dience tonight to help "get a little more democracy in foreign affairs Although one Of the foremost advo- yates of armament limitation, he pre- dicted that the armament conference would be failure unless public opin- ion unmistakably demanded reduction of navies and armies.
 ''Pry open the doors of the confer ence.' he declared. Let the sunlight of publicity beat in on the dark and secret places. Let us know what is going on before it has been included in order that public opinion may have it's molding effect Above all, let responsibility be fixed and then let public opinion lash from power those who betray the cause.
 Disarmament will be but a delu- sion. fraud veneered with tepid purposes and false promises, unless there is found demanding it and sup porting it what amounts to a moral and social revolution It will come only at the command of the people. united and determined, persistent and untiring.
 Public Opinion to Shape Destinies
 .It is your fight That conference will accomplish nothing of real and substantial worth un- less is be directed and dominated by the commanding voice. In the name of the dead upon a thousand battle fields, in the name of countless mill lions bending under the crushing bur den of war, in the name of the maimed and wounded. in the name of all who are hereafter to inherit the earth. let us not lose interest, let us not give up hope. let us rather resolve that the conference shall not fail. that our hearts and hopes and prayers will brace and direct, yes command. the men who have this fearful responibsility resting upon then.'
 Old fashioned diplomatic secrecy brought on the world war, and the same system of secret negotiations is relied on to solve the problems which confront us."
 Already the system is bearing fruit" he added. England anc Frahce have travelled far apart ir three years. how far one hardly dares estimate.

 It is reported Henjjas and the oth- CT Hungarian officers were in full uniform. It is not believed the cas- ualties were great It Is said allied officers marched with the Austrian troops.
 A demonstration by the Czechs is expected unless the allies forbid the occupation. The Czechs are known to have concentrated a division on the frontier near Pressburg and oth- CT forces on the Hungarian border.
 Appeal for Aid
 The movement of occupation has been suspended and Herr Schober, Austrian chancellor and foreign min ister. is appealing to the inter allied representative to take steps to se- cure a fulfillment of the treaty terms giving Burgenland to Austria. As far as is known the only foreign troops in the territory are a few hundred Italians
 Following a cabinet council today, Herr Schober protested to the inter allied officials in Paris.
 The Hungarian minister sought an interview with Herr Schober today to offer an explanation of the situa- ton. This was refused.
