EIGHT DUMBA DISMISSAL WILL BE FOLLOWED No Doubt by Taking the Heads of Other Undesirable Diplomats ABUSE OF PASSPORTS i e\ Arm AI m nrrr iinp io otmuuo urt-thiot Austria Expected to Comply at Once With Recall of Envoy. President Wilson's reguest to Austria to recall her ambassador, Dr. Constantin Theodor Dumba, has brought about a situation which contains possibilities of extending to other diplomats of the Germanic allies. Dr. Dumba used James F. J. Archibald, an American bearing an American passport, as a messenger to carry a communication to the Vienna foreign office. Although it has not been called officially to the attention of this government, the State Department understands unofficially that Archibald also carried a communication for Captain Von Papen, military attache of the German embassy. Secretary Lansing said to day that the American government considered the sending of any communication by the means of *vhicn Dr. Dumba used an abuse of an American passport. Officials refused to discuss the situation further, but it is known that the activities of the Consul General Von Neuber, of Austria, and Count Von Bernstorff, the German ambassador are, again being reviewed by the State Department. Captain Von Papen's letter, which was a private communication to his wife is now on its way to the State Department from London. Officials said the fact that it was a private and not an official communication nid not alter the case. It is understood that the writer made slighting references to American officials.

It was made plain, however, that although the State Department has been fully advised of the activities of Count Von Bernstorff he was not involved to the extent of Dr. Dumba. There was serious consideration, however, whether Captain Von Papen or Consul General Von Neuber should be allowed to remain longer in the country. Archibald also carried a communication for Count Bernstorff, but it was a copy of a statement which had been forwarded to the German ambassador by Secretary Lansing. o Statement of The Condition of Tht CONWAY SAVINGS BANK Located at Conway, S.
