ITALY AND AUSTRIA
SCHUSCHNIGG AND MUSSOLINI CONFER RECENT MISUNDERSTANDINGS TO BE OVERLOOKED I FRIENDSHIP TO BE RESTORED [United Press Association—By Electric Telegraph-Copyright] VENICE, 22nd April. A four hour conference between Dr Schuschnigg, Chancellor of Austria, and Signor Mussolini was adjourned until morning. Dr Schuschnigg indicated that Austria had no intention of joining any European group but was steering equally clear of an Ilalo-German alliance or a counter alliance against Italy and Germany. Austria was determined to live on good terms with Italy, Germany and Jugoslavia. It was generally agreed that the recent misunderstandings, including the football disturbance on 21st March be overlooked and Italian-Austrian friendship be restored. PERFECT IDENTITY OF VIEWS (Received 24th April, 9.55 a.m.) VENICE, 23rd April. An official communique says that Signor Mussolini and Dr. Schuschnigg noted with satisfaction the perfect identity of their views and confirmed the principles on which friendly relations will be based. They are sure collaboration will create systematisation of the Danube Valley, but Germany’s co-oper-ation will be essential in the matter.
