VISITORS TO HUNGARY

FEARS IN CENTRAL EUROPE PUZZLING CHOICE BETWEEN BRITAIN AND ITALY GERMAN MILITARY DELEGATION AT BUDAPEST IBy Telegraph—Press Association Copyright! Keecivcd May 25, 9.30 p.m. LONDON, May 25. A disclosure that a German military delegation connected with the ordnance and other technical departments of the Reichwehr, is visiting Hungary, is arousing considerable attention. The Budapest correspondent of the limes instances the Little Entente’s nervousness as evidenced in the question whether the conversations indicate mobilisation or other military plans. Hungarian officials deny such significance. The News-Chronicle’s Budapest correspondent emphasises the secrecy of the discussions, which may be the German reaction to reports, hitherto unsubstantiated, that Russia has assisted the establishment of aerodromes in Czechoslovakia, and also has sent pilots and men. The correspondent points out 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.
