LIVING COST UP 10000
PER CENT IN AUSTRIA
Printing Presses Run Overtime
to Keep Up Necessary Sup
ply Of Money.
M A..ociated Press to Every Evening.

Nv Associated Press To Every Evening.
Wanna. Oct. 23.-It 10 estimated
that the cost OF living In Austria has
increased over 10000 per cent since
January OF this year.
Each monthly index number. on
which all government salaries as well
as agreements between employees ana
emploved are based; has mounted
steadily. until this month government
employees receive salaries equal to l56
times the amount paid in March OF
1921. This and other government out
Law has been met largely by the print
!ng press, until the current statement
OF the Austro Hungarian Bank shows
a total note circulation of nearly two
thousand billions OF kronen. One
weeks increase alone was 10000
600. 900.
Within the last month strict gov
ernnent control over all dealings In
foreign exchange has raised the krone
from about $4,000 to $4,000 TO the dol
Tar. But despite this there has been
no appreciable check in rising prices
II is claimed. for example. that -four
margarine, beef fats. coffee, clothing
shoes and fuel are above world parity
The government and private inter
eets recently initiated fight against
the index number system. An amend
ment 20 the statute was brought n
by which the government will pay only
one-half of any future increase, while
private employers served notice they
would not meet It. but would negotiate
the basis OF increase with the unions
Organized labor of every kind roel
as a man, and more than half a dozer
unions are still on strike.
The unions claim that the inde1
system Is not cause OF increases
prices. but the thermometer, and tha
the basic fault Is lack OF control ovel
