AUSTRIAN SOCIAL.
DEMOCRATS MAKE:
BID FOR POWER
Attack Seipel's Stand
With Fascists
Especial To The DAILY woRKER)

VIENNA, July s. The political
struggle for power between the Aus
trian fascist government and the So
cial democrats, who are seeking to
succeed it in office, took new turn
yesterday with the public censure in
social democratic organ of Prime
Minister Seipe's policy in kowtowing
to Mussolini on the Tyrol question.
Choosing an issue where they be-
lieve they can rely on the nationalist
feelings of many Austrians, the So
cial democrats believe that they can
win power for themselves by a strong
criticism Of Seipel's administration
at this time.
The prime minister's action in eff
fecting the recall of the Italian am
bassador to Vienna was accomplished
without the knowledge of parliament,
the social democrats urge.
At the same time they demand an
immediate converting of parliament to
deal with the Italian issue.
The maneuver on the part of the
social democrats is causing the most
widespread discussion here in public
and in the press. The prevailing
opinion is that the maneuver is an
attempt of the social democrats to
overthrow Seipel. In this way they
calculate to obtain the support Of the
Austrian diet, especially the Tyrolese
diet, it is believed.

! average of 40 years service for
officers of other arms, and an
annual attrition in excess of the 4
per cent allowed for in the present
system.
Proponents of the Dickstein bill
have brought official figures that
show the flow of promotion in the
Army is based on an annual attri-
ton of per cent and that the
a1trition in the air service has con-
tinued to he in excess of this figure
ever since the corps was organized.
Average Is Lower
Flight surgeons Of the air corps
are of the opinion, say the pro-
pOnents of the new plan, that from
20 to 25 years of active flying ser
vice is about all that can be ex-
peCted of an aviator and still have
him remain efficient as a militia nv
pilot. Forty years of active service
are expected of officers of other
arms, they say, and the normal
expecta ton of life for an aviator is
much less than 40 years.
The rate of promotion for avia-
ton officers, Representative Dick,
stein believes. is too slow under the
single promotion system now in
effect, for them to attain rank at
the time of life and service "at
which they are by experience and
physical vigor best suited to render
maximum service to the Govern
ment."
