AuStrias New Strong Man.


In Prince Ernst Ruediaer Won
etarhembers acting chancellor In sue
reaion to the sasasainated DR., DOLL
fuss. Austria seems Ia have found .
new strong man. The statuesque
youns FASCIST soldier -aristoeTat comes
honestly by his hehting blood. He
traces his ancestry 10 1850. and one
Of the stsrhembergs held Vienna
against the Turks In 1899.
Addressing the Austrian people by
radio last night, Prince Starhsnberg
gave forecfuI evidence OF his determi
nation TO defend the nations integrity
against all corners AT present its foes
are mainly domestic, for throughout
the southern provinces civil war con-
tinues to rage on a violent scale, az
loyal Heimwehr troops and the federal
soldieTy battle shoulder to shoulder
against Austrian Man rebels. Casual
ties agsreeatins several thousand are
nov reported. as the government
throws its fun military strength
against q revolt that seems In It's final
stages. Its end viii mark the frus-
trstion Of the German-engineere
Naz raid on Austrias independence.
Prince starhembers, appealing for
the loyal support OF the Austrian
people. pledges them that there will
be no compromise with National
Socialism either at home or abroad
I'VE will never make any concession"
he declares, that in any way limits
the freedom, honor or dignity OF the
Austrian nation We have = German
mission to perform, but we viii not
let anybody dictate or even advise or
influence Us a. 10 how we shall fulflll
that mission. We shall resist every
attempt to restrict the liberty and
independence Of our fatherland.
Maintenance of that Arm purpose 10
our holy heritage from olir dead chan
cellor."
Thus in unmistakable words Prince
Starhemberg notiies Hitler to keep
NaZi hands of Austria. The new
head of the state at Vienna does not
content himself with this mere warn
ing to Berlin. He dehantly voices
mistrust in Germany's promises of
good neighborliness and honorable
purpose. We have suffered too much
in the past Prince starhemberg
says, mot to look skeptically at pro-
testations OF friendship. We shall
wait reseryedly to see whether peace
follows words" This is a straight
arm thrust at the statement of Hitler,
when appointing Vice Chancellor Won
Papen as special envoy to Vienna
that the German chancellor desires
70 cooperate as far as possible In
easing the general situation, and in
particular to bring back to normal
and friendly paths the long unfor-
tunste relations between Germany and
the Austrian state"
Hitler is nov cstegorically aware
that nor only will German intrigue
In Austria not be tolerated, but that
if the Reich means well ny the lit
tie neighbor state actual deeds must
manifest sood Intentions.
In so many words Hitler is told
that he must call Of his Mani dogs
Of war in Austria. That there IS now
at the helm in Vienna a leader with
iron in his soul is the best guar
sntee that sooner or later domestic
tranquility will be restored TO Austria
and that European peace will ret be
broken while the sad remnant of a
once mighty empire proceeds 70 work
cut what Is left Of its national destiny
