The doughty aeronaut doesn't put, it in exactly that form but he has had his personal attorney, Henry Breckinridge of New send a telegram for him saying he prefers no further congressional action be taken on the latest medal bill brought to his attention.

HIS MESSAGE. Mr. Breckinridge's message wired to' Representative Randolph chairman of the committee on coin-: age. weights and measures. which has had charge of the winter raft of: Lindbergh coin and medal acts, was; expressed succinctly as follows: "Colonel Lindbergh deeply appre-! ciates the generous motives behind all.

this legislation but he prefers that no! action be taken particularly for rais' ing money from the public that will insure in any way to his personal. benefit." Mr. Perkins considers this as put-! ting an end to further Lindbergh coin and medal legislation, but some of conferees do not. and they have' aasked him to talk the situation over this week-end with Mr. Breckinridge and Col.

Lindbergh. too. if possible and report back to a special meeting of his committee called for Monday morning. Firm Won't Make Electric Chair; Is Opposed To Law Springfield. March must die who kill.

Anschluss." The vistor in this big city'. often hears these two words wherever bus-! iness men, politicians or workmen get together for a chat. "Der Anschluss" is the biggest problem little. decapi-: tated, 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. inspired by fear of a bigger and stronger Germany. So they insist upon the existence of this seemingly impossible little state of Austria to whose rescue the League of Nations has several times been compelled to come.

HOW IT'S SLICED UP. The situation in its A C's is this: When the treaty makers got through: with their carving of the old, big Austro-Hungarian empire, they had given of its former territory to Rumania and Jugoslavia and had created a new state, Czechoslovakia. All that was left of the big dual empire was a small Hungary and smaller Austria. latter as an independent country is almost an. economic and industrial impossibility.

FUTURE DUBIOUS. It seems to Austrians that their future as an independent state is very dubious. The future as a state within: the German republic would seem to them secure and the more They would be part of a big Food and raw materials would flow into their state from the German country without having to cross eleven lions at the London zoo, worth: about $200 each. The tiger market is better. good specimens being valued at from $500 to $600 each.

The 200's price list includes: Hippopotamus $4.500 Elephants 3,500 Young giraffe 3.000 Sacred baboons 50 Zebra 750 Pythons by the foot) Giant tortoise (Sold by weight) Bird of paradise 200 King penguins 375 Monkeys $40 and up Bears $350 and up Gorilla depends upon size. age and The price of an elephant varies. 4 good tempered elephant pays for its feed as it goes, bringing in from 000 to $1.500 a year by carrying about on its back. Young giraffes are always In drmand. but there Is no market for full grown ones.

The difficulty is the long neck which will not permit their shipment by railroad. frontiers. German capital would flow in. Their railways would be merged with the German state railways, which are more efficiently tun Viennese industrial products would find 8 ready market in Cirrmany Also they would flow by railway to the great German seaports for thr export. trade.

Austria. as A1 present constituted, has no scaports of own. THREE PARTIES. In Austria there are three errat political parties--the German Nationalists. the Christian Socialists and the Social Democratic.

A prominent Socialist toid me that the bulk of all parties were sincerely in favor of the anschluss as a solution of Austrias troubles. SOME GERMANS OPPOSE Now lets' take the vies of the out. side states. The German parties ct the extreme right are not keen about this voluntary annexation. The parties of the center and the left aruld be increased in power by the annesation of Austria.
