ROME INTEREST AROUSED.
Mussolini Lukewarm to Hapsburg
Restoration.

ROME. February 20 R.-Rumors
published abroad that restoration OF
the Hapsburg dynasty in Austria was
possible aroused great interest here
in government and diplomatic circles
In some quarters, such q restora-
ton was regarded as final means of
preventing an anschluss-a union
between Austria and Germany.
The Italian interest is particularly
keen, because the Archduke Otto
claimant to the Austrian crown, has
been mentioned as a prospective hus-
band for Princess Maria, the youngest
daughter of King Victor Emanuel OF
Italy.
The government. however, Is await
ing further information on the pos
sibilities of restoration before declar-
ing any opinion.
Of1lcial statement or not. neverthe-
less, 1t Is known that Premier Benito
Mussolini is lukewarm to the subject
of a Hapsburg restoration. He has
preferred throughout to concentrate
his support In Austrian affairs or
Chancellor Engelbert Dollfuss as the
means of avoiding an anschluss.

He said the soldiers only ordered
the movement of an auxiliary corps
(the Heimwehr), to Upper Austria to
maintain public security against all
possible occurrences" as a natural
aftermath" Of the recent Socialist re-
bellion
1t was even rumored today in con-
nection with the reports Of shooting
on the border that all the Austrian
Nazis were marching across from Ba-
varia.
Finally. however, 1t developed that
there had been a skirmish on the bor-
der February -. when unidentified
men seriously wounded one gendarme
and one Heimwehr.
Unreported in Civil War.
It was still uncertain today
whether the gunmen were smugglers
or Nazis.
In the excitement of the civil war
this shooting remained unreported, it
was explained.
The news finally dribbled into
Vienna last midnight. It caused high
excitement because 1t was mistaken
for q fresh incident.
The shooting which occasioned so
much excitement took place at Hal
bach, near Passau, on the same day
the civil war began.
There also were two other shooting
affrays-without casualties, however
on February IS.
AS q result Of these clashes, the
border patrols we're strengthened q
fortnight ago. Since then conditions
have been normal.

mended today by the superintendent
Of the National Capital parks. C.
Marshall Finnan, to his superiors in
the Interior Department.
Finnan, in submitting the pre-
liminary program which is part Of q
general scheme to be laid before the
Interior Department executives by
park officials all over the country,
urged that the Rock Creek and
Potomac Parkway from K street up
stream, including the Klingle roadway.
be constructed at cost of 100000.
Removal Of the temporary heating
plant building, between Sixth and
Seventh streets that now obstructs, the
Mall vista, between the Capitol and
the Monument. was recommended by
Finnan, at a cost of $4,000.
Grade Separations.
The park superintendent impressed
upon his superiors the need for grade
separations on the Mall at Twelfth

advocated that a roadway be con-
structed from Seventeenth street to

terry, at a cost of $75 900, was recon-
nended.
Improvement of the Columbia Is
land plaza, including construction of

on the program.

equipped with all sorts Of electrical
appliances, so that the burden OF
house work will be reduced to q
minimum. A good start In this d.
rection has been made at the dam
construction camp.
The electric farm offers other far
reaching possibilities. 1t has been
calculated that there are 227 distinct
uses for electricity on the farm-but
only about 4 per cent OF the farms In
this area now have the advantage
even of electric lights. The cost OF
much further use Of power has been
prohibitive.
No part of the United States. up
to date, has approached the rural
electrification of Northern Europe
In Denmark alone so per cent of the
farms are electrified. largely through
co-operatives. Sweden. Norway, Ger
many, France and Italy have made
great progress in this direction, espe-
cially in the past 10 years. Electricity
can be used not only for the more
obvious purposes where stationary
machinery is employed, but for
threshing, for blowing and for culti-
waiting. It can be used to f1ll silos
and to grind into flour the grain
grown on the farm In Sweden and
Norway extensive use is peing. made
Of electrical soil heating, so tnar sege-
table gardens now flourish inside the
Arctic circle There Is also a wide
field OF usefulness in the stimulation
of egg laying and flower growing by
electric light
The T. " A. hopes to produce for
America a demonstration area equiva-
lent to what the little kingdom OF
Denmark has been for North Europe
The problems in this no very tenn
perate region.a Of course, are quite
different. There will be a continual
efforts to find out new economical uses
for electricity within the Tennessee
Valley environment.

its distribution system. was the first
municipality to contract with the T.

power direct from Muscle Shoals.
Under its contract the city immedi-
ately effects a saving of approximately
60 per cent in the wholesale cost Of

neers and attorneys are busy check
ing the inventory and title Of distri-

other properties which are to be ac-
quired from the Mississippi Power
Co. as part of a contract recently ne
gotiated between the T. v. A. and the

AUSTRIA is QUIET

VIENNA, February 28-vienna was
quiet today-the date of expiration of
the so-called Habicht ultimatum.
Up until midafternoon, three hours
after the expiration Of the truce" ex-
tended by Theodore Habicht, exiled
leader of Austrian Nazis, there had
been no demonstration nor disturb
ances in the capital, none reported in
the provinces, and no new incidents
on the Austro- German border.
The University Of Vienna students
attempted no demonstrations and no
unusual street gathering was discern
ible.
Buildings Are Guarded.
Pro-government observers hailed the
stiffness as q demonstration of the
governments strength. Nazi sympa-
thizers said it was "a Nazi demon
stration of silence against Habicht.
Others reserved comment until suf-
ficient time has elapsed to receive
complete reports from all sections.
Meanwhile, however, public build
ings remained heavily guarded by the
police.
Foreign newspaper correspondents
representing approximately $500 news
papers submitted q formal applica-
ton to the government for permis-
sion to see the Socialist former burgo-
master of Vienna, Karl Seftz, and
other prisoners who repeatedly have
been rumored as either dead or mis-
treated.

ANTI-INJUNCTION
BILLS URGED

New York City (ILNS)-Bills to
restrict state courts in the issuance
of labor injunctions as federal courts
have been restricted since 1881, and
pending in the legislature, were call
ed to the attention of organizations
and attorneys throughout the state in
a memorandum sent out by the ma
tional committee on labor injunctions.
In one respect the bills will go fur
ther than the Norris Guardia act,
since issuance of injunctions on mere
affidavits will be outlawed. In any
dispute, the National Council holds,
both sides to controversy should
have fair hearing before a court in
tervenes. AS in the federal law there
are provisions prohibiting injunc-
tions against the peaceful activities
OF organized labor, expediting ap-
peals, and limiting the terms and du-
ration of labor injunctions." The
bills will insure jury trials for all
violations of injunctions and will
make such violations civil, not crimi-
nal contempts.

new LAW
Helping to Reduce Injuries
To Child Workers

Harrisburg, Pa. (ILNS)-Legisla-
tion providing double compensation
to injured children illegally employ
ed, has served to decrease the num-
ber Of industrial accidents to min
ors, survey by the Bureau of Wom-
en- and Children, department Of labor
and industry, shows.
Fewer minors under 18 years Of
age were injured in the entire year Of
1882 than in the last six months of
the previous year, the first half-year
the law was in effect. In the first
six-month period of the new law,
thirty-nine children were hurt. This
compares with a total of thirty-three
injured in the year following.
Commenting on the report, Miss
Charlotte E. Carr, secretary of labor
and industry, said:
"Part of this decrease is due OBJ
viouslly to the general falling off of
employment in that year. A consid-
cradle factor, however, has been
through amendment to the workmen's
compensation law which provides for
double compensation to illegally en-
ployed children.
"It is significant that the decrease
in accidents to minors was 48 per
cent from the year before, while ac-
cidents for persons of all ages de-
creased only "a per cent"
