determine exactly-it would seem rca-
sonable to expect that some sort of

In these days of highly developed
mechanical aids to building ronstruc-
ton the chance of accident should be
greatly lessened. Machines new do the
work that men formerly had t2 do, and
they do it more speedily and smore eff
fectively. But machinery must be
tended by men and there is probably a
certain irreducible minimum Of danger
in all operations dealing with. obdurate
materials and the displacement of old
conditions, in the removal of debris
and the undermining of walls. That
fact makes necessary the exercise of
the greatest care in all opeE cations of
th. kind. In this present case the in-
u,i1ry should determine whether such
rSre was exercised.

SHOOTING STARS.
BY PHILANDER JOHNSON.

Serious Relief.s
Every time I turned arounl
I was supposed to laugh.E
Each tune was written to rfsound
A bit of jolly chaff.
Every picture was joke.
Each poem was delirious:
What relief when SONG one spoke
In language strictly seri5us!
PHILOSOPHERS are handed ol.t
In lines where satire glows,
And Crime sets up hooking shout
And strikes humorousspose.
We're cropping in state OF mind
Where glee becomes mysterious.
1t is great relief to fine
Somebody strictly serious!

EUROPE FEARS
AUSTRIAN union
WITH GERMANY
Leaders Protest lndepend-
ent State Is Economic
ImpoSSibiIity.
BY MILTON BRONNER
NEA Service Writer

VIENNA, Feb. 24.-"Der An
schluss."
The visitor in this big city often
hears these Two words wherever
business men, politicians or work.
men get together for chat. Der
Anschluss" is the biggest problem
little, decapitated, struggling Austria
has.
Der AnSchluSS" means voluntary
annexation to Germany. The peace
treaties forbid it. Even if the peace
treaties did not, interested European
powers would. They are inspired by
fear of a bigger and stronger Ger
many.
How It's Sliced Up
The situation in its A B C'S is
this: When the treaty makers got
through with their carving Of the
old, big Austro-H Hungarian empire,
they had given great slices Of it's
former territory to Roumania and
Jugoslavia and had created a new
state, CzechoSlovakia.
All that was left Of the big dual
empire was a small Hungary and
a smaller Austria. The latter as an
independent country is almost an
economic and industrial i'm
possibility.
It seems to AuStrianS that their
future as an independent state is
very dubious. The future as state
within the German republic would
seem to them more secure and more
hopeful. Food and raw materials
would flow into their state from the
German country without having to
cross frontiers. German capital
would flow in.
Their railways would be merged
with the German state railways.
which are far more efficiently run.
Viennese industrial products would
find ready market in Germany.
Also they would flow by railway to
the great German seaportS for the
export trade Austria, as at present
CONSTITUTED, has no SeaportS OF its
own.
Europe Objects
The German parties of the ex-
IRENE right are not keen about this
voluntary annexation. The parties
of the center and the left would be
increased in power by the annexa-
ton of Austria.
= France has hitherto returned an
invariable negative to even the
barest suggestion of the anschluss.
She fears any addition to German
territory.
Italy also objects. At present a
weak Austria is a buffer state between
herself and Germany. Annexation
would mean that augmented Ger
many and Italy would have frontiers
marching together.
From an unprecedented American
standpoint, the natural thing in this
after the-war Europe would be to
allow weak Austria to join up with
Germany. The unnatural thing
would be to try to maintain this
impossible state in a condition of
independence.

in the Navy Yard in washington and
is fitted up for the use of the President
whenever he may desire to go aboard.
The handicap about the Mayflower is
that 1t must necessarily go down the
Potomac which is change of view
and of considerable relief, but affords
no change in altitude and very little
in climatic conditions.
"The movements of the President are
a very ponderous operation. Other Off
GERS of the Government can travel with
a considerable degree of freedom. If
they wish to spend a week end at a
hotel or q club, they can do so without
difficulty. They also have. greater lib
erty in accepting private hospitality.
When the President moves it is an
event. A large retinue follows and ex-
pensive preparations have to be made
in advance for his reception and care
The only place he can enter without
considerable preliminary disturbance is
the White House.
For these reasons 1t seems to me
that some place should be provided in
the hills within easy striking distance
of Washington where the President
might go for two or three days at
time when he was so disposed, with
conyeniences for entertaining members
of the Government and other guests
where he could have that freedom OF
action which he has v4ass' at the White
House, and where he could geI o an
plete change of atmosphere.
Mistress Needs Change.
while I have made no mention of
the mistress of the White House, she
is. of course, to BE- considered. The
public little understands the very. ex-
acting duties that she must perform
and the restrictive life that she must
lead. Fully as much as the President,
she needs an opportunity for change
and some place where she can have the
seclusion of the White House without
a constant reminder of its obligations.
"Three or four years ago some
thoughtful- minded person left legacy
of $2O0,000 which, / should judge,
would have been ample to provide a
place of this kind within so or IS miles
of Washington. It had proviso that
it should be accepted by the Congress.
I did not give the matter any thought
at the time, and the Congress never
paid any attention to it. Had it been
accepted, a country house would now be
available.
such a residence would not be in a
strict sense a Summer White House,
but If such a place had been provided
should not have desired to leave
Washington so early in the season or
return so late. Being distant from the
Capital for a considerable length of
time each Summer iS attended with
good many inconvenience, even when
we have the use of the airplane for
mail purposes and a special wire rum
ming into the White House 1t is de-
sirable for the President to stay for
some time in different sections of the
but a month. or six weeks at
the most, is ample for him to make
such observations and acquaintance
as are required for him to understand
of the problems of various
localities. Fl
1T is not too much to hope that the

CHINA'S new TARIFF
HELD CONSERVATIVE
Schedule Called Reasonable At
tempt to Avoid Burden on
Commerce.

BY the Associated Press. 3.
SHANGHAI, December 10.-The gov
eminent today made public new ta-
riff schedule which will go into effect
on February /, 1880. and 1t appeared
to be characterized by conservative
tendencies.
The new schedule is one of the most
comprehensive documents yet compiled
by the Nationalist government. 1t in
cludes virtually every product import
ed into China
The tariff schedule was considered
in foreign commercial circles to be a
reasonable attempt on the part of the
government to levy a tariff capable of
increasing revenues and at the same
time not imposing unjustif1ed burdens
upon commercial interests.
The schedule covers thousands of
products The outstanding classical
