CONFLICT NOT REGARDED
AS SERIOUS BY PARIS

Paris, Aug. 3o.--OniciaI circles here
do not consider the Hungarian in
surrectionary movement in Burgen-
land. the narrow strip OF territory
along the Austro-Hungarian frontier
awarded to Austria by the treaty Of
st. German, a serious matter. They
base their Judgment on the latest
dispatches concerning the movement.
and il is expected two or three days
will see the end Of the troIble. II is
considered unlikely that there will
be any necessity of sending allied
troops into Burgeniand.
The first reports Of clashes between
the Austrians and Hungarians at
Odenberg, capital of Bdrgeniand.
caused some concern in Inter-Allied
circles here. These reports said that
Austrian troops which were sent to
occupy Odenburg were attacked sun
day night and that the incident had
caused great tension between Austria
and Hungary Other reports told Of
conflicts between Hungarian insur-
gents and Austrian soldiers along the
frontier between the two countries.
Ii is understood that protest has
been made to the allied powers by the
Austrian government. Juso-Slayia
and Czecho- -Slovakia are said TO have
taken a threatening attitude as re-
suit of the conflict in Burgenland.
The frontier between Austria and
Hungary had stood for nearly 1000
years until it was changed by the
treaty of ST. Germain. Burgenland is
full Of ancient landmarks. The chief
value of this region to Austria is
from stratxgic considerations
