GERMAN MILITARY DELEGATION VISIT TO HUNGARY LITTLE ENTENTE NERVOUS (United Press Association— By Electric Telegraph—Copyright) (Received 26th May, 9.20 a.m.) LONDON, 25th May. The disclosure that a German military delegation connected with the Ordnance and other technical departments of the Reichswehr is visiting Hungary, is arousing considerable attention. “The Times” Budapest correspondent instances the Little Entente’s nervousness as evidenced by the question whether the conversations indicate the concerting of mobilisation and other military plans. Hungarian officials deny such significance. The “News-Chronicle” Budapest correspondent emphasises the secrecy of the discussions, which may be German reaction to reports hitherto unsubstantiated that Russia assisted the establishment of aerodromes in Czechoslovakia, and also sent pilots and men. The correspondent points out that while Austria and Hungary are puzzled to choose between Italy and Britain owing to the former’s victory in Abyssinia and the latter’s uncertainty in action, both Austria and Hungary are anxious to avoid closer relations with the Italians, whom they distrust, and the Germans, whose domination is feared.
