HUNGARY SHARES CUSTODY OF CROWN Government Obtains Key to Treasure Formerly Held by Count. By the Associated Press. BUDAPEST, Hungary, March 12— Parliament has adopted a measure placing the famous crown of St. Ste- phen, used to crown the kings of Hun- gary, in the equal custody of the gove ernment and Count Bela Ambrozy. who hitherto has been the sole guardian. Hungary's anomalous position of be- ing a kingdom without & king came up in the course of debate upon the bill, ;lhx(‘h was introduced by Premier Beth- en. The Socialist Deputy Propper de- clared it was time that uncertainty whether Hungary was to be a mon- archy or a republic should be removed by submitting the question to the peo- ple.

The Vienna Abend. in & dispateh i from Budapest on February 19, said {that when Count Szechenyl. custodian jwith Count Ambrosy of St. Stephens’ | Crown, died recently. it was reported | that the count's key to the crown cup- |board had disappeared mysteriously to reappear later in the possession of Pre- m! Rethlen. “Those who know that accerding to the constitutton only he who is crowned with St. Stephen’s crown can be king of Hungary, and who further recollect that the ‘late custodian and Prince | Primas Seled! wished t0 crown only | Ktng Otto, interpret Premier Rethlens {action to mean that he and Regent Horthy have determined that they will crown anly wham they themselves se- leet." the paper added The Hungarian parliament of 1930 voted o continue the old monarchical constitution - Hungary.
