ARMS SENT BACK
BY AUSTRIAN FASCISTS. (British Official Wireless.) RUGBA', February 21 In Ihe Commons the Foreign Secretary was ask'd whether a .settlement had been reached in the matter of the recent importation of arms into Austria. He icplied: The Italian Ambassador saw me yesterday, about the arms recently sent from an Italian consign ment to two Austrian factories. He informed me that tho Italian Gove.rnment,- for their part, was prepared to agree to the arms in question, which were sent to Austria for the purpose of being re-conditioned, should be sent back to Italy as soon as possible after fulfilment of the contract for re-con-ditioning. The Ambassador informed me that some of the arms already had been sent back to Italy. It is under stood that fhe return of the remainder will be evidenced in due course by Customs certificates of the Austrian authorities. The British Government for their part hope the question could be considered as closed, by the general acceptance of this proposal.
