Scandals Over Finance
Calling Loud for
Reforms

Vienna, Dec. 22--Some curious
abuses, survivals of ancient as well
as modern outgrowths, have been
disclosed in the parliamentary de-
bates; on the Reform Bills. These
measures are designed to fulfill the
conditions on which the League of
Nations is to undertake to find Aus
tria foreign credits.
For instance it is asserted that
some 10000 institutions, both reli-
gious and Secular, as well as many
individuals enjoy salt doles, that is,
free salt from the government mo-
nopoly. These are of very ancient
origin and bear curious titles, such
as the "Salt of Grace" the "Must
Salt" the "Salt of Aims" the "Salt
of Gods Healing" and so on.
Then ii has beenI disclosed that
great numbers of free doles of wood
or other fuel exist, also dating back
to olden days of the monarchy
The Minister for War confessed
that obvious economies could reduce
the army cost by p billion crowns
year without material reduction of
personnel The debates showed a
superfluous number of officers in
the army In the Tyrol for instance
there are nearly two officers to each
soldier, counting sergeants as Off
GERS.
The most serious disclosure, how
ever, was the overmanned railway
administration, where there were
1914 employees for every kilometer,
or five eighthss Of mile.
A modern scandal also was re-
vealed when ii became known that
The director general of the govern
ment map and lithogrphing bureau,
who is also an owner or director in
six other similar establishments pri-
vaEely owned, had closed down his
shops and was doing private work in
the government establishment, with
government labor, and paying moth
ing in return.

DEFENSE SUMMONS.
MANY WITNESSES.
IN HERRIN TRIAL
Claims the Accused. Men
Had No Part in the
Murders
(By Associated Pressl

Marion, Ills, Dec. 22-Ihe de-
ferse in the trial of five men charg-
ed with murder in connection with
the Herrin riots last June was ready
today to begin introducing testimo-
ny, which it was announced, would
be designed TO prove an allbi for
each of the accused men. Each OF
the several hundred witnesses sum-
moned were in court, but it was
problematical how many of these
would be called to the witness stand
before court adjourns tomorrow ev-
ening over the holidays.
The state rested its case yester-
day and adjournment was taken to
permit the defense to gather it's
witnesses.
A. w. Kerr, of counsel for the de-
fense, in a statement yesterday, said
he would seek to prove that the ac-
cused men could have had no part in
the killings. He asserted the de-
fense would seek to impeach testi-
mony given by several states wit
nesses that they had seen the de-
PENDANTS with guns the day of the
rioting or had seen them shooting
at some of the victims.
Under the Illinois law, there are
no degrees of murder and the jury
will be compelled to return sepa-
rate, verdict for each of the defen-
dants and also if it finds them gull
ty. to fix the penalty, ranging from
one years imprisonment to death.
The holiday recess will be until jan
uary 2.

The "line," which is said to be op-

London, Dec. 22-ConsIderable

to visit Germany. Some of the pa

denials that Great Britain has re-
ceived much less accepted, the pro-
posal, and warn against faith in
these american canards."
In quarters where it is admitted
as probable that Germany initiated
such a proposal the idea is received
with a strong suspicion of Teutcnic
motive.
at would be most unwise," writes
the Financial Editor of the Post,
"to allow these constant rumors of
American interyention to divert at
tention from the one undoubted fact
of the situation, namely, that the
next cash installment of the repara-
tions is due January Is and that it
behooves the allies to come to a de-
finite conclusion in the meantime
regarding the course to be adopted
unless Germany previously presents
satisfactory proposals"
The diplomatic correspondents of
the Telegraph and the Daily News
refer skeptically and unfavorably to
the latest proposal, There are re-
newed declarations that American
help is settling the trouble would be
entirely welcomed. The West Min
lister Gazette contends that the
United States twill at the right
stage realize that assistance is I'M
perative in her own interests"
Discussing editorially prospective
American aid, both the West Minis
ter Gazette and the Morning Chroni-
Gle make the point thai American
financiers and business men already
recognize that the sntuation deeply
involves Americas interests and
that they are acutely anxious in
that direction. The Gazette be-
lieves chat the opinion of Ameri-
can banking circles is well ahead Of
that of politicians"

Thieves Secure
Fine Turkeys
And Oranges

People of Palatka must be careful
about, buying turkeys from stranG-
ers who may be making house to
house canvass with samples of the
stock. To buy from strangers is
but encouraging the thieves, alleged
to BEDDING business of this sort, to
extend their operations.
Oranges came under the same
head. They are stolen from the
groves and sometimes sold, so it Is
alleged, to retailers about the city.
The price at which this stolen stuff
can be wholesaled is low, and the
sellers are willing to accept almost
any figure offered. The receipts to
the seller are "velvet."
Owners of groves and raisers of
turkeys have made complaints to the
office of the sheriff, and the depu-
ties have been endeavoring to learn
from whom some of the dealers OBJ
tain fruit. Thus far inquiries have
brought but little satisfaction. Re-
tsilers readily tell of whom the fruit
was bought they are handling; but
it is evident that large quantities
are being sold either in the city or
are being shipped to other points.
The turkey problem is proving hard
to solve, as those who may buy the
birds at low figures, should there be
any in the city, have not furnished
any information regarding the mat
ter.
The sheriff and his deputies pro-
pose to hunt down the offenders il
possible. In the meantime house.
wives can be of assistance, and if of.
fers of either turkeys or oranges are
made by strange sidewalk hawker'
the office of the sheriff or the city
police should be called by phone anc
notified at once.

GERS of Denver and Northern Colora-

Washington, Dec. 22;-The ques-
ton of America extending aid to-
ward the solution of the economic
troubles of Europe has been brought
sharply to the front with the emerg-
ing of plan under which an Amer
icap commission would determine
what Germany should pay the allies
in reparations.
The proposal so far has been dis
cussed outside the formal channels
of diplomacy but an understanding
in authoritative circles has been de-
veloped through an exchange of
views that the United States, Great
Britain and Germany are willing to
assent to the creation of such a
commission. Premier Poineaire, of
France, now has the plan before him
and is expected to make a. decision
when he has concluded to a series
of conferences with industrial lead
ers of France and Germany.
From the beginning of the present
discussion officials of the Washing
ton government have been unwilling
to do more than hint that way was
being sought to render aid towart a
European settlement and so far have
refused to discuss the plan for an
American commission. Secretary
Hughes last night, however, issued
q brief statement which avoided any
mention of details and said that the
Government" had presented "no
proposal" on the subject. y,
The method of sounding out all OF
