VIENNA ALLEGATIONS

VIENNA, August, 29. The Reiehspost, which is almost ol semi-official rank, uiicl other Viennese newspapers of less importance to-day publish sharp attacks on the Jugoslav Government lor permitting, as I hey allege, the organisation, of a new Austrian Nazi legion on Jugoslav sou. According to these accounts, the Nazi fugitives who were driven from Austria miring the July Putsch are being concentrated and drafted into units m the area between Maribor, tlicir headquarters, and Bled, together with immigrant legionaires. The leaders m charge are stated to he Herr KammerImfer, the* former commander ot the dissident Slyrian Hyitnwehr, and Herr von Kothen, the former district leader tor Carintliia. Both are alleged to have been specially delegated from Munich and to be in touch with Jugoslav officials and polil iciaiis. Herman money is said to be (lowing freely. The Reiehspost learns from the same “indubitably authentic source” that the Nazi forces' in Jugoslavia are being told I hat Austria wiTl have gone Nazi by October at the latest, but. “the blow must be struck before Herr von Pa pen (to-day reported to be taking long sick luavc) returns lo Vienna so as to avoid any outward appearance of any connection with Germany.” They are being encouraged with' assurances that the Nazi organisation in Austria, now in course of repair, will soon he ready lor another revolt, in which members of the Austrian Cabinet, will be done away with. They have been informed also, says the Reiehspcst, that German agitators will stir up revolts tho world overin Tripoli, Algeria, Ireland, Switzerland, and the Baltic .States—and that, if necessary, Germany will openly declare war. JUGOSLAV DENIAL The German frontiers will bo,advanced to Cortina and Trieste, , and Jugoslavia will be recompensed with Carilitlua, which she is already promised. Europe will do well, tho Reiehspost concludes, to watch the developments now beginning in Jugoslavia with the greatest care, and to ascertain whether the uiuler. standings between Belgrade and Berlin and the personal undertakings of certain Jugoslav agents have not already gone farther than is compatible with Jugoslavia’s treaties of alliance or the interest i.f European peace. The Jugoslav Government has issued a linn and unambiguous denial of these stories, in which they are described as “a tendentious and malicious invention,’ to he regarded as a continuation of the anti-Jugoslav campaign launched some time ago by a certain (meaning the Italian) press with the objects of undermining the good relations between Paris and Belgrade and of branding Jugoslavia as the disturber of mid-European peace.
