Sees Shadopy Ghost
 Of Pan-Germanism Arisin 2
By HUGO A. NEUMANN GA. p. Staff Writer)

VIENNA, Sept. 1.-The nebu- ious figure of an Austro-German empire dominating central Europe has cast grotesque shadow over current peace efforts.
 The movement for union is founded largely on the sentimental plea that Germans and Austrlans, being of similar race and language, should affiliate for their mutual benefit.
 Recent signs of new strength in the project has stirred public opin. ion in Germany and Austria, has alarmed France and ruffled offici- al feelings throughout Europe An observer is struck with the fact that sober-m minded Austrians are not in favor of revival of pre-war relations with Germany.
 Austrian business men, bankers and industrial leaders are decided iy against union. They fear that hey will be swallowed up in the vast German commercial machine and lose valuable markets in the Balkans.
 Austrian government and civil service employees give no encour- agement to the movement because they fear the eclipse of Vienna as l capital and tn loss of their live lihood.' Others dread adapting themselves to German discipline and German methods of business
 The Clerical Party. which rules Austria, objects to the partner ship on the grounds that Austria is Roman Catholic state ana that union with Catholic Bavaria would be better than an arrange ment which included protestant Prussia.
 Chancellor Selpel of Austria re- mains discreetly silent on the mat ter, knowing that word from him in favor of the union would bring down on his head the wrath of both France and Italy
 Germany's reparations debt is another objection raised by Aus trian economists. At the present time Austria's annual trade defici. is $150, 100000. and she is not dis posed to assume additional obliga- tions.
 The treaty of St. Germalne con- stitutes another barrier to union in a provision whereunder Austria agreed to maintain independent nationality.
 Supporters of the movement in Austria say that the country was stripped of two-thirds of it's terri tory and seven-eighths of its pop ulation, and that the only saliva ton was union with q stronger power.
 Chief among the "unionists" are the German element in the Aus trian population, by the Germans who became subjects of Czecho- slovakia against their wills and by the German professors. army officers and civil servants of Aus tria. Added to these is the Aus trian socialist party which looks to time when their comrades will rule Germany.
