■J —' Will —■■■.» ■ - - ng, speedy action on DRAFT BILL SURE (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) of the Austrian minister of commerce. Dr. Urban, and of Dr. von Barnreither minister without portfolio, was announced in Vienna dispatches re ceived here today. Both are members of German parties. f Great significance may be attached to these reeignatlons, since the ministers were "members of German parties.’’ It is possible that the German and Austrian censorship is concealing Anti German feeling in Austria and that the resignations of two men belonging to German political parties is due to this cause. Other reports, from sources not affected by the Teutonic censorship, persisted in rumors that Austria is seeking a separate peace.
