Italy, Germany and
Austria Arranging
3 Point Agreement

Florence, Italy, Feb. l9.--(AP)--
A high authority disclosed tonight
that three-point agreement
among Italy, Germany and Aus
tria is in process of formulation.
The proposed agreement abli-
queIy includes Hungary.
(This disclosure indicates new
agreement similar to the old triple
entente, which before the World
War allied Germany, Italy and
the Austro-Hungarian ernpire.)
The three points of the agree
ment we're outlined as follows:
1. Germany and Austria will
lower their tariffs considerably in
reference to each other.
2. Germany will guarantee Aus
trials independence.
3. Italy will permit the free de-
veIopment of Pan-Germanism in
Austria as long as the movement
does not destroy Austria's indie
pendence.
This new development was re-
vealed shortly after FulviO Suvich

eign affairs, and EgOn Bergerwal-
