FIGHTING NAZIS.
AUSTRIA'S STRUGGLE. Dollfuss' Strong Action to Stamp Out Plots. DAILY RAIDS ON HOUSES. United P.A.-Electric Telegraph—Copyright) (Received 2 p.m.) VIENNA, October 29. Austrian Nazis, planning a sensational coup d'etat to overthrow Dr. Dollfuss, obtained large supplies of machine-guns and rifles for a private army numbering thousands. It was expected they would have doubled their reinforcements from Germany. However, Dr. Dollfuss has learned of the plans for the uprising and is desperately striving to avert it. Every day raids are being made on the homes of Nazi suspects. Austria's first "surveillance centre for political prisoners" was opened at Woellersdorf yesterday. It houses 20 Nazis and Communists. The centre resembles German camps, but the use of the term "concentration camp" is forbidden to the newspapers. Prisoners are obliged to pay for their food and accommodation, also the guards' wages and the cost of the upkeep of the centre, whither they are conveyed at their own expense.
