QUIET TO AUSTRIA
Leaders in Fascism Dispute
Prepare for DoI|fuSS
Conference Soon.
By the Associated Press.

VIENNA. February 6-Rival fac
tions in the Tyrolese provincial dis
pute over whether a Fascist commits
sion shall rule the district or merely
advise its elected government agreed
today on three-day armistice.
The Fascist HeimWehr (home guard
and Catholic storm troops will con-
tinue to occupy Innsbruck. under the
truce, but leaders promised to take
no further action in the Tyrol until
after a conference with Chancellor
Engelbert Dollfuss Friday regarding
their ultimatum for a Fascist reor-
ganization-at least in the Tyrol.
Today, despite the fact that an ad-
dltional 1000 armed guardsmen and
Catholic storm troopers were moved
into the city when the dispute de-
veloped last night. Innsbruck was
quiet.
The city was the center OF the
Fascist commission formed to take
over the government of the Tyrol
after the Heimwehr mass meeting.
Police Stand Aside.
From the very first, the police have
stood aside, viewing the dispute as a
purely intergovernment affair
The Nazis. focal point of Dollfuss
government attacks in the district,
also have quietly stood aside and,
while the Socialists were agitated
over a Heimwehr raid on their news
paper at Innsbruck yesterday. the only
unusual thing foreign tourists might
notice is the large number of uni
formed men
With Dollfuss empowered by the
cabinet to appeal to the League of
Nations for protection against what
he has termed German attempts
to "Nazify" Austria. the situation
throughout the country today gener-
ally may be described as outwardly
calm. but turbulent beneath the sur
face.
Fear Radical Reforms.
What worried party politicians to-
day was the possibility that the Heinz
wehr might launch radical reforms in
Vienna while Chancellor DollfuSs was
absent on an announced two-day
visit to Budapest.
Some observers. in fact. suspected
DollfuSs preferred a radical move,
such as the installation of Fascist
kommissar in Vienna. to be carried
out in his absence.
While he is in Budapest comforting
with Julius Goemboes. premier and
minister of national defense of Hun
gary. Doll.uss named Vice Chancellor
Emil Fey, who also is leader in the
HeimWehr. to head the government
The official government gazette to-
day denounced rumors circulated
abroad that the Austro- German dis
pute would not actually reach the
League of Nations saying:
Let it be once more emphatically
understood-the Austro-German dis
pute positively will be submitted to
the League"
The Gazette said any delay would
be due to purely technical considera-
ton.
