ROME, July 26 Q.N.S0.-1taly
served notice upon the world in
general and Germany in particu'
lar today that she was willing to
fight to preserve Austria'S inde-
pendence, but at the same time
declared "the events in Austria
provide no cause for alarm"
A few hours after Premier Mus
solini hastily arrived by automo-
bile from Riccione, where he sent
a vigorously worded message to
Vienna, pledging Italy to defend
Austrian sovereignty if necessary,
the foreign office issued a reas.
suring statement to the people Of
Italy and all Europe, who had
been watching with anxious eyes
for Italy'S next move.
Note Of Peace
Though Italian troops on the
Austrian frontier are being rapid
ly reinforced As insurance against
another coup by pro-G German
Austrian Nazis, the foreign office
today sounded a note Of peace.
The statement, given out after
II Duce had conferred with sew.
eral colleagues, follows: -,
'The events in Austria, while
filling the whole Italian people
with sadness, provide no cause
for alarm, as the government
seems to be in full control, even
50 far as nominating q temp
Orary chancellor.
"A more regular procedure
than that would be difficult to
expect.

tain that the movement (the
Nazi putSch in Vienna) was
simply an incident and that
it has passed off rs do other
incidents ally connected

'There was no general upris-

STILL. RACES
IN AUSTRIA
Fate of Nation in Doubt As
Starhemberg Takes Reins;
II Provinces in Turmoil
BY. ALFRED TYRNAUER

VIENNA, July 26 Q.N.SJ.-An
uncertain fate awaited the tiny
Austrian republic today as, with
fighting continuing within her
borders and a virtual ring Of for
eign troops encircling her, Prince
Ernst Rudiger Won Starhemberg,
vice chancellor, flew hurriedly
home from Italy and assumed
provisional charge Of the govern
ment.
Prince Starhemberg faced trou.
bles at home and possible compli-
cations abroad that caused all OBJ
servers Of the situation to view
with apprehension the immediate
future. Some feared that Austria
might again provide the spark that
would touch off q holocaust Of
war in Europe.
Revolt On In Styri&
With Vienna outwardly calm, a
state approaching civil war ruled
In the province Of Styria, along
the JugoSlavian border. It was Of
ficially admitted that a heavy en-
gagement had been fought be-
tween Na2i 'iIlSurrectioniSts and
government forces at StainZ, in
Styria. At least six were killed
and many wounded. -
In the border towns Of Lietzen,
Gorbening, and Schlagding fight
ing also was in progress. Unoffi'
cial reports said that 20 had been
killed In this sector.
Fighting also was reported In
progress at Graz, but the govern
ment claimed its troops were
gaining the upper hand.
The fighting along the frontiers
presented q delicate situation.
Jugo-Slavian troops are massed
along the frontier. A stray shell
fired by either side in the civil
warfare easily might land outside
Austrian territory.
Nations Ready to Act
On every side armed forces
watched what was going on in
Austria. italy has modified troops
to the south. Germany has closed
the Austro- German border. Jugo-
Slavia has her soldiers ready to
move into Austria if events occur
to justify a military invasion or If
the powers should deem necessary
joint military action to preserve
the independence Of Austria.
Cautious AuStrianS and foreign
observers watched the situation
with apprehensive eyes, their
minds turning back to 1914, when
a less menacing situation launched
the world into war.
Prince Starhemberg's first act
when he returned to Vienna was
to order complete mobilization of
the Heimwehr, the Fascist military
organization Of which he is the
leader.
Then he attended q cabinet
meeting, which marked his as
sumption Of provisional control Of
the government. Vice Chancellor
Starhemberg automatically be-
came head of the government, DR..
Kurt Schuschnigg, minister of edu-
cation. who became provisional
chancellor yesterday after the
death Of DollfuSs, having been
