quickly with smoke, forcing occu.

tions for a farewell conference.
Retiring as German ambassador
to Britain, Won Ribbentrop called
on Lord Halifax and learned from
him that Britain is determined the
Austrian people shall be permitted
absolute freedom of action in
voting over the week end when
they will decide whether they
want unity with Germany or con-
tinued independence.
PLEBISCITE SURPRISE
Diplomatic circles said Schus-
chnigg's plebiscite announcement
came as a great surprise to Won
Ribbentrop, who is expected to
leave for Berlin Immediately after
q formal luncheon tomorrow, max
Ing the trip by air.
The announcement prompted
him to speed up his series of fare
we'll talks here. Before he saw Lord
Halifax, Won Ribhentrop conferred
with Sir Robert Vansittart, special
diplomatic adviser to the cabinet.
With undiplomatic fortnight
ness, a booing crowd of Britons
accorded Won Ribbentrop an angry
reception when he called at the
foreign office for talk with Lord
Halifax.
POLICE DISPERSE CROWD
Yelling and cat.calling, the
crowd spied Won Ribbentrop enter
ing the foreign office and shouted:
Get out, Ribbentrop!"
Police charged and dispersed
the crowd, but the incident pro-
vided a sour curtain-raiser to the
vital negotiations into which the
German and British diplomats
plunged behind closed doors.
The Won Ribbentrop Halifax
talk was part of a British pro
gram, indorsed yesterday by the
cabinet, in the interests of Euro
pean peace. While seeking an
understanding with Germany, the
government also is determined to
reach a quick agreement with
Italy.
Another demonstration occurred
when Won Ribbentrop left the
foreign office after a talk lasting
two hours and 20. minutes.
