AUSTRIA DESCRIBED AS “PLAY THING OF GREAT POWERS”
(Rec. 10 a.m.) VIENNA, March 13. • Austria had been far worse treated than any other country in a similar position, said Dr Leopold Figi, Austrian Chancellor, in an article in the newspaper Tages Zeitung on the negotiations for an Austrian treaty now threatened with a breakdown in London.
“We have been made the plaything of international politics which know neither justice nor morals, neither feeling nor pity,” he said. “Every one of the Great Powers makes an agreement to the liberation of Austria, or to the treaty, dependent oh our being 100 per cent, on their side.”
