AUSTRIA SCUTTLES
ST. GERMAN PACT
5000 Youths, n Years Old,
Called for Compulsory
Military Service.
Nv the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
VIENNA, October 2.-Repudiating
the postwar treaty Of st. Germain,
Austria yesterday called 5000 youths.
aged 81, to the colors for period OF
compulsory military service.
Backed by a promise OF full Italian
support from Premier Benito Mussolini,
the Austrian government boldly took
the treaty-breaking step despite earlier
warnings that stiff protests would be
forthcoming from the Little Entente.
Force Now Put at $4,000.
The action was conservatively esti-
mated to have raised Austria's fighting
forces to $4,000 men in active service,
with an additional $4,000 in reserve
and 100000 trained in the old private
armies.
BY contrast with this sizable force.
the Austrian army until 1888 was well
under the 10000 allowed by the treaty
of St. German.
Ceremonies and addresses streSSing
the honor and duty of defending the
war-carved remnants of the once pow
erful empire against ANY eventuality"
accompanied the moving into barracks
OF the 5000 new soldiers.
simultaneously, national campaign
was launched for contributions to build
UP the Austrian air force, now esti-
mated at slightly under 200 planes.
5000 to Be Called.
About 5000 additional youths, it Is
believed, will be called to the colors
later under the new compulsory federal
service law, which went into effect
today.
Well-informed sources explained
that the measure was enacted because
1T is impossible to allow Austrian youth
further to be subjected to Nazi inf1u-
ences without doing something about
it,
1t was pointed out, moreover, that
motorized German corps have been
posted recently on the German Aus
trian border, ready for some even
tuality in Austria" and that conse-
quently more protection was necessary

On, How We loved our dear one
No heart can ever tel.
But Jesus loved him better stu
And called him home 70 dwell.
Hour by hour we saw his fade.
And slowly sink away.
Yet in our hearts We often prayed
That he might longer stay.
Sleep on dear husband and take yOur

God called you home, he thought il
best.
He saw eur suffering here so great
And opened wide the Golden Gate
A happy home we once enjoyed;
How sweet the memory still
But death has left . vacant place
That never win be filed
And now that our circle Is broken
And parting thus fills rs with pain,
We hold as 9 glorious token
The bright hope Of meeting again

STRONG PROTESTS

NEW YORK (CNA) The Of

ca amidst scenes of hilarious fes-
tivity in Owensboro, KY, has evok-
ed sharp denunciations from work
ers' organizations and Negro and
liberal groups, both in the South
and in the North.
Bethea, a 22-year-old youth, was
hanged in a Roman Holiday circus
staged by Sheriff Florence Thonhp-
son. The sadistic exhibition was
attended by a blood-thirsty mob of
more than 10000 white visitors
from all parts of the state. The
huge crowd munched hot dogs and
guzzled pop and moonshine amidst
yells of Bring on the niger, we're

In Covingtca, hys a group of
Negro and white citizens called on
Governor Chandler last week o
protest the legal lynch orgy. The
delegation also assailed plans for
another public hanging at the sche-
duled execution of John "Pete"
Montjoy, a Covington youth.
Governor Chandler was asked to
commute the death sentence Of
Montjoy and to take steps to halt
the spread of festival hangings and
terrorism of Negroes in tbs State.
Demands of the delega jon were
backed by the American Civil Lii
berries Union. Which fought Mont
joys case in the U. S. Supreme
Court, the National Association
for the Advancement of Colored
People, the International Labor De-
tense, and other labor groups.
Both men were convicted Of rape
and both charged torture and dur
ess by the police in obtaining their
confession. In the greensboro case
Federal court ruled that Bethea's
forced confession was sufficient
ground for conviction and in the
Montjoy case the u. S. Supreme
Court screened its support of Ne
gro oppression behind the pretext
that mo properly presented FEEDER
al question was involved" although
the defense showed obtaining a
confession by force, exclusion Of
Negroes from jury panels, impro-
per defense by court-appointed at
torneys, and failure of the trial
