Rod and limited German re-arma'
ment.
VIENNA, Jan. 20. (UP)-
Severe rioting instigated by
Nazis broke out in the streets of
the capital last night in protest
against Chancellor Engelb r
Dollfuss's negotiations with Italy
for Italian armed intervention in
the event the Nazis attempt to
revolution in Austria.
Thousands of milling persons
gathered around the Burg the
atre, where a gala performance
Of Premier Benito Mussolini's
play, Napoleon" was given last
night. The police, aided by sew
eral companies from the Helm
wehr and other auxiliary rein
forcements with fixed bayonets
repeatedly charged the bowling
throng. Hundreds were arrested.
Mounted police charged into
the mob at the theatre, running
down the Nazis as they sought OF
flee the flying hoofs. Similar
scenes occurred at the chancel-
lory, where Dollfuss and Fulvio
Suvich, Italian undersecretary
for foreign affairs conferred.
The Heimwehr and reinforce
ment details cleared the streets,
and placed a heavy guard around
the chancellory last night.
The United Press meanwhile
learned on good authority that
Dollfuss was prepared to admit
Italian military intervention in
the evert the Nazis break out in
open rebellion against his gov
eminent.
In speech earlier in the day
at the Christian social parlia-
mentary club, the chancellor en-
phasized that Suvich's presence
in Vienna was indicative of
Italy's interest in Austria's in
dependence and freedom. He
said that Britain and France
likewise were supporting his
fight to retain this independence.
His speech, regarded as a
warning to Nazi Germany not to
seek to foment trouble in Aus
tria, included this ominous de-
claration:
"Hence. must repeat that our
biggest neighbor Ger m W
must finally understand it is
possibly not an altogether undan-
gerous international game con-
tinually to threaten state, al
though its territory be small"
Another phase of the turmoil
persisting in Austria over the
Nazi threat came to light yes
terday. The Jewish youth Or
ganization in Vienna, under the
the leadership of Jewish War
Veterans, for months have quiet
ly organized a defense league,
and assembled arms and ammuni-
ton with the approval of the
government, it was learned.
The move was taken on the
basis of information that radical
young Nazis allegedly planned a
program against the Jews once
the Nazis seized power, the plan
including placing thousands in
concentration camps indefinitely.
