Austria Menaced by Meat Famine, Blames Hungary;
Latter Stops All Exports and Two Countries Are Hostile

Special corrsspondenes to The NEW Yosx
HnaALD.
VIENNA. May 1s.-vienna Is passing
through a scarcity of meat which al
most amounts to famine. with prices
at record heights and altogether pro-
hibitive for the middle class housewife
The reason for IL Is a general export
prohibition on the side OF Hungary,
the chief purveyor Of meat to Vienna.
Some time ago the allied reparation
commission demanded from Hungary
the surrender of $4,000 head Of live
cattle as reparation payment. The
Hungarian Government endeavored to
get cancellation or reduction of this
order at Paris. and when these at
tempts remained unsuccessful stopped
all exports Of meat on the ground that
the delivery of such a big number of
cattle would leave Hungary with har-
dly sufficient stocks for home consump-
ton and that 1t would therefore be
dangerous to continue the exports
The measure had an immediate ef-
feet on Vienna. The meat l,Eces
went up with alarming rapidity and
reached double the usual level with
in a fortnight. According to the opin-.
ion of the official circles in Austria
this was just what Hungary wanted
Vienna is comparatively popular with
the western Powers and at the same
time danger spot IL her supplies are
threatened
The Viennese papers published semi
official hints from Budapest that it
was not the fault of Hungary when the
Viennese population is once more
threatened with semi-starvation and
that the Austrian Government ought to
appeal to Paris in favor of more
lenient attitude of the allies toward
Hungary. The Budapest Government
wanted to use Austria as an instrument
for achieving its aims in Paris. At the
same time IL suggested TO the Austrian
Government confidentially that 1t was
willing to suspend the prohibition IL
Austria would let in a certain quantity
of Hungarian wine or lower the import
tariffs for Hungarian wines In general
other Countries Help.
This showed that the real reason for
the closing OF the Hungarian frontier
was not threatening scarcity of meat
in Hungary but the desire to force
Austria into position In which Il has
the choice between becoming a second
to the Hungarian cause in Paris or TAX
ing wines which it does not want in
order to obtain the necessary foodstuffs
which IL cannot miss. Apart from that.
Government circles here have the i'm
preston that Hungary uses the depend
ence of Austria on agricultural imports
from the neighboring States for taking
revenge for the forced surrender Of the
Burgenland to Austria and that the
meat quarrel is only the first step to

Foreigners have been heavy buyers Of

Swedish real estate holders have
turned their attention TO property at the
center OF the city. They purchased. for
example. the large Metropolis Theater-
Palace and Westminster Hotel. an ad-
joining building. These amusement
pisces are among the largest In Berlin.
They also purchased the Victoria Cafe.

beginning 10 repent. when they came
to Germany themselves to settle down

return on their Investment But az for
eign spectators merely looking for an

have been disappointed. Many are al

has removed control over most goods.
house rentals are s,ill pegaed down u

Special Correspondence to The New YoRK
New York Herald Bureau
Berlin, MAY 49,
The attitude of the Germans to the
"valuta rich' foreigners is assuming
controversial character. and discus
sions as to the pros and cons OF the
matter are appearing with increasing
frequency in the German press. Like
every problem. this also has two sides,
a fact that is fully realized by the Ger
mans themselves, who. with absolutely
nothing inimical or racislly hostile in
their attitude, are asking themselves
where things are going to end IL the
invasion of foreigners increases in the
same ratio as the mark decreases.
They know their poverty stricken
country would suffer inexpressibly IL
foreigners were Disseminated against
to an extent which would keep them
out OF the country, but. on the other
hand, the invasion Is sending the prices
up so high that the Germans are be-
ginning to find themselves barred from
many of their former pleasures and
diversions.
For instance. the thrifty German who
always arranged his household budget
SO that every member of the family could
take the "air cure" so dear to the heart
Of the German, Is now reading with dis
may that hundreds OF thousands OF
Americans alone are expected TO be
emptied into Germany through the north
ern ports. to say nothing OF the hordes
that will sweep down from the Scandina-
Wan countries and Holland. The Amer
lean army will march across Germany to
beautiful Bavaria and there proceed 70

ment. while the stranger appropriates

OF the land.
