LIVING COST LEAPS
RAPIDLY In VIENNA
Prices Advance "a Per Cent. i'm
the First Half of
January.

VIENNA, March Living costs IN
Vienna increased "a per cent. between
January l and is, according to official
figures. and some articles rose above
world prices.
Apparently the announced deter
minatic1 of The Finance Minister, DR..
Guerthler. that he will at least force all
Government monopoly prices to world
parity is extending itself automatically
throughout business.
The newspapers say that suitings
coffee. coal. flour. furs and stockings
are now above New York prices, and
that meal in an ordinary middle or
lower class restaurant costs more thar
u does there. Good tailors demand
from Eli TO f15 sterling for a suit or
oyercoat.
The jump in prices that set in lust
before the holidays continues. II gravely
affected the Christmas trade. ard many
shops are still stocked with the seasons
goods. Customers are few and the rising
prices have materially thinned out for
cigners drawn here by cheap living or
for speculative buying.
Tho best illustration OF the chaotic
state of affairs is found In automobile
cost. A six cylinder car of the type
that In America sells at from about
$1,000 TO $4,000 could have been bought
here In the summer for s2,40O. The
same car was offered this week at a
price in kronen equivalent to $4,000.
The Government is rcsorting to every
cxpedient TO raise money TO meet its in
creasing cost. A form of treasury scrip

nation of 100000 kronen Is now In cir.
culation 10 offset the scarcity Of regu.
lar currency. but is expected to be re-
tired when the new $4,000 kronen notes
arc ready for issue. The refusal of
many merchants TO accept the scrip
caused further confusion I'm the general
ly confused state OF business.
Industries have been badly hit by the
increasing cost of production. particu-
larly those which must import most of
their raw materials, so that many fac
tories are reducing their payrolls and
thus throwing the discharged men back
on the Government out OF work dole

Manufacturers In general are limiting
production to actual needs and are
little inclined to start manufacturing
fall goods and samples. Retailers stocks

tain manufacturers are complaining OF
increased underselling of the market
Many retail sales are said to be OF
that class. Consequently. larger manu-

PLAN PALESTINE CANAL
Zionists Resurrect Old Plan of Duke
of Sutherland
TAssociated Press

ASSOCIATED Press1
Jerusalem, Feb. 15.-The Zionist
organization has resurrected the old
plan of constructing a 25O-mile
canal through Palestine as supple
ment to the Suez Canal. This pro-
ject was first brought out 25 years
ago by the late Duke Of Sutherland
but was buried unceremoniOusly by
Sultan Abdul Hamid because OF his
opposition to progress.
Traffic through the Suez Canal has
become so congested these days that
it is claimed an alternate canal route
is required. Zionist leaders have be-
come convinced that the ever ex-
banding trade relations between Con-
tinental Europe and the Far East
have reached such dimensions that
a canal in Palestine would fill an
urgent need and reap untold COM
mercial benefits for Palestine.
