Krakow Becomes Capital
OF Unannexed Poland

From Krakow comes the an
nouncement that the city has re-
placed Warsaw as capital Of the gov
ernment general Of Poland Gas dis
tinguished from the part actually
annexed by Germany.
This role Is not a new one for the
ancient and historic city, says q
bulletin from the National Geo.
graphic Society. Krakow was orig
inally the frst seat Of government
of the old kingdom Of Poland in the
Middle Ages, and has always since
been known as the spiritual capital
OF the country. A fortress town, sit
uated on the Wisla (Vistula) River
In the southwestern part Of Poland
it is the historic, cultural, educationa,
and religiouc center of the nation
The University of Krakow is the
third oldest in Europe
THE present change in the status
OF Krakow is only the latest oi
many. In succession it has been cap.
ital OF Poland, part of Austria, ar
independent city for while after
1915, and finally Polish once more
after 1919. The pre-war population
was 254,000."

7 TeIeki Death Laid to Nuzi Yoke
Premier Of Hungary Pictured os Unable to Endure
His Countrs EnsIuvement by Germany

Bulgaria cannot be relied upon to
fall into line. The Agrarian and
Communist opposition is probably
too strong for King Boris safely to
carry out his policy to the point of
going to war. Moreover, Italian
morale is crumbling. Noisy demon
strations in Italian cities have been
checked. But the fact that italian
diplomacy tried to mediate between
Berlin and Belgrade, that it sud-
denly professed friendship for the
new Yugoslav forign minister, Nom
clio Nincitch who had to leave Of
flee in 1924 because Fascist negoti-
ators deceived him and concluded
behind his back the first treaty of
Tirana whereby Albania lost her
independence speaks very clearly.
More and more, Germany is called
on to shoulder the burden which
crushes her partner.
On the other hand, signs are in
creasing that, after all, around the
British eXpeditionary force and the
resolute enforcement of the Lease
Lend Act a league of Greece, Yugo-
slavia and Turkey is likely to come
into existence. Nobody will dare
assert that the free Balkan peoples
and their British ally are not any
more exposed to great risks. But
that Germany will have to contend
with difficulties still more serious
fhncn h,tI y,ai1it N o,-ry
leaders cannot be doubted The
probabilities are that the Turks will
depart from the defensive strategy
to which they were resolved to stick
and submit to common plan
worked out under British guidance.
Indeed, a fortnight ago, in Cyprus,
Shukru Saracoglu, the Turkish For
eign Minister, was won by Anthony
Eden, the British Foreign Secretary,
to a policy of alliance with Yugo-
slavia. Saracoglu promised that
Turkey would cooperate with Yugo-
slavia for the defense of Salonika
and even that statement would be
published on that subject.
T. Shone, the British secretary to
the British Embassy in Cairo, was
hastily sent to Belgrade, and at first,
reported favorably on the reaction
of Prince Paul to the proposal. But
the Turkish Minister in that city
had hardly applied for an audience
of the regent dt had been set for
March 24) when he heard that the
latter had made up his mind to sur
render. The house of cards COL
lapsed.
The new Yugoslav regime is only
too anxious to pick up the broken
threads of that negotiation. But
meanwhile, the Russo Turkish
declaration which entities the An
kara cabinet to reckon with Russia 1
complete neutrality and under.
standing if Turkey is attacked anc
obliged to enter the war to de.
fend her territory" became effective
That declaration, after merely two
weeks, must now be reshaped tt
provide for the case where the
Turkish government and genera
staff would decide to fight not only
on the national territory, but in tn,
zones of national security" A
special delegate has left Belgrade fol
Moscow and the nature of his mis-.
sion can easily be understood.

NEW YORK, April 4.-For the
second time in less than year, a
Kings County jury last night con-
victed two Brooklyn Murder, Inc,
operatives of first degree murder in
the Staying of police informer.
The convicted men are Harry
(Happy) Malone and Frank (T'he
Dasher) Abbandando, charged with
the Staying Of George Rudnick,
whose stabbed and garroted body
was found in Brooklyn garage the
night of May "a, 1897.
Convicted and sentenced to death
at their first trial, the pair won a
retrial from the Court of Appeals.
They were described by the prosecu-
ton as triggermen for the murder
for-prof1t ring.
Principal witness against the two
was Abe (Kid TWIST Relies, whom
Assistant District Attorney Burton
B. Turkus declared was involved in
eight murders, adding he'll be taken
care of in due time"

worst if he unf1inchingly refused to
commit himself to the axis. or
course, today, having been slapped
in the face by the military revolt
in Belgrade, Adolf Hitler cannot af-
ford to retrace his steps.
An element of tragedy has been
injected in Germany's Balkan under
taking. On March 27 Prince Paul's
regency was abruptly terminated by
Gen. Dusan Simovitch. Yesterday
it was announced that Count Paul
Teleki, Premier of Hungary, had
killed himself. Why did he become
desperate man? He could no
longer endure watching and super
intending his own countrys en-
slavement by Germany.
Unlike Count Stephen Csaky, late
Foreign Minister of Hungary, who
died some months ago, he had no
totalitarian proclivities. He was one
of those patriotic Magyars who en-
tertained the dangerous hope that,
within the major imperialism OF
Germany, room could be found for
the reinstatement of Hungary in a
commanding position over her
former Slav subjects.
At first. such expectations seemed
to be fulfilled. In the second half
of last September, when So-called
German tourists" flocked to the
Balkans, no less than 5000 transit
visaS were issued by the Hungarian
Foreign Office on the demand of the
German authorities. Then, the Nazi
power took great care not to ruffie
the feelings of its associate, but,
nowadays, Hitler shouts high words
of command. The iron hand can be
seen at every turn and the velvet
glove has been thrown away. Ac-
cording to Yugoslav sources, the
Hungarian Army was pressed by
Berlin to share in the offensive on
Yugoslavia. In Teleki's supreme
sacrifice. warning to his own people
can be read.
There are now 240 German divis-
ions under arms, more than what
is necessary to perform all conceiv-
able war tasks in the present cir
cumstances of Europe unless Russia
be drawn into the picture. OF what
use to Germany can Hungarian mil
itary assistance be? Considerations
of prestige give the answer.
