HUNGAR|ANS SEIZE
AUSTRIAN LAND
Insurgents Hold Burgenland
Strip, Causing Great Tension
Between Nations
FIGHTING ALONG FRONTIER
BY the Associated Press

Vienna, Aug. 30.-Burgenland. q
narrow strip of territory situated alone
the Hungarian border. which was
awarded Austria by the Treaty OF
st. GERMAN, is apparently in posses.
sion Of Hungarian insurgents, with
Lieutenant Hejjas enacting the role OF
Adalbert Korfanty in Upper Silesia or
Captain Gabrielle D'Annunzio In Fiume.
The Government Is not receiving any
news from the district where on Sunday
night irregular Hungarian forces at
tackled Austrian gendarmes sent to oc-
cupy the district. Austrian Ccmmis-
sioner Davy. however, reports from the
town of Mattersdorf that he narrowly
escaped being killed in Odenburg.
There are unconfrmed reports that
one allied officer has been killed or
Wounded in the fighting in Burgenland.
Lieutenant Hejjas is reported to have
posted placards throughout the district
calling to the colors all men under
forty five years of age. It is also said
that 5000 Hungarian regular troops
have arrived and are encamped near
Odenburg. A detachment Of 200 Aus
trian gendarmes is reported surrounded
at Gerersdorf.
An official statement issued here says
that Austria is relying upon the Allies
to prevent any conflicts in Burgenland
and to see that the treaty of st. Ger
main is carried out. The statement
says that military posts in numerous
small towns of the district have been
overpowered by Hungarian regulars and
irregulars and made prisoner OF
wounded.
Two non Hungarian speaking per-
sons have been executed in the forest
of st. Margareta, dispatch received,
said.
Lieutenant Hejjas is said to be arm
ing the German speaking peasants OF
Burgenland against their will.
Paris. Aug. 30.-(By A. POT
fetal circles here do not consider the
Hungarian insurrectionary movement
in Burgenland a serious matter. These
circles base their judgment on the latest
dispatches concerning the movement,
and it is expected that two or three days
will see the end of the trouble. 1t is
considered unlikely that there will be
any necessity Of sending allied troops in
to Burgenland.
1t is understood that a protest has
been made to the allied Powers by the
Austrian Government. Jugo. Slavia and
Czecho- Slovakia are said to have taken
threatening attitude as result OF
the conflict in Burgenland.
