Austrian Troops Are Smashing The Nazis
tcontinued from Page D

Schmitz and others will deliver eulogies of the little chancellor who emerged unscathed from the World war in which he fought he- roically, only to die by degrees on a sofa of his chancellory.
 Escorted by highest government officials and by soldiers, Heimwehr men and special police, the body will be taken to St Stephens cathedral. There-partly in token of Pope Plus horror at the man. ner of Dollfuss' death-Cardinal Innitzer, archbishop of Austria, will conduct services.
 From the cathedral the body body will be taken to Hietzing cemetery for temporary burial. Kurt Schucschnigg, who was act ing chancellor until Starhemberg, the vice chancellor, returned to Vienna, will pronounce theprinci- pal eulogy at the graveside.
 Seek Safety of Nation
 But sincere as was tho mourning for Dollfuss, government heads necessarily were concerned with the safety of the nation.
 Carinthia and Styria were the danger areas of revolt. In both provinces fighting had been bitter.
 Fighting continued at Halben- rain, Hampfenburg, and Eiseners in Styria and at St Veit in. Carin- thia. Hamwenburg and Eisenerz were nominally in the rebels hands pending arrival of govern ment forces.
 There was fighting of minor charactertat other towns but the reports covered a time many hours back and it seemed likely ,most of them had been occupied by the government forces.
 The Nazis were surprisingly to the government-well armed, and in some cases had machine guns.
 The government tried in each case first to dislodge the Nazis from their fortresses with gas bombs, then used machine guns and rifles, then one pound guns and finally when necessary the deadly trench mortars. It was not true that heavy artillery was used.
 Austria has no heavy artillery. It is forbidden under the St Ger main treaty.
