EUROPE BUBBLING WITH NEW TRENDS -Briand’s Plan of Union May Be Coagulator for Political Stew. . T Radio to The Star. .A'PARIB, September 27.—Europe today 15 an old kettle, flamed up by old frus- ‘trations and complications and sim- mmering vigorously with new politicel waters and new uncertainties. Europe, which has been regarded by some as "filtering senilely away, has revealed ,bubbling up within its vessel these past few weeks new springs of action | .and unexpected cross currents.

To understand what prompted the League Assembly to permit Briand to let fall his potion of feu and stir it around for a year to see what may . it is wisest perhaps to take a fresh look around Europe at ti nations which are simmer.ng—to Wha end no one knows. There is Germany bursting forth in G‘“‘" nationalism which may endanger e German republic. Britain is held 4n the coils of unemployment and ‘economic depression. There is France "with her Parliament split almost pre- “eisely in twain between Nationalist ‘Right and Socialist Left and the Tar- “dleu government riding a dangerous Yall. There is Spain with the Beren- ‘guer dictatorship nursing a frail un- certain existence; Italy, with her Fas- . “cist regime striving to perpetuate itself by frequent doses of a strong but dis- turbing nationalism; Austria, isolated and gasping economically for existence as well as relief; Hungary in a simi- lar condition and wavering as to .whether Otto and the Hapsburgs shall eventually return. - Problems Are Varied. ™ mo the South, Alexander's dictator- ship es the question as to whether I via as a nation shall remain v fall asunder. To the East, Rumania .with her new king and a disrupted royal | household. To the North, Poland with the new Pilsudski regime and the old discontents. And beyond its borders lies Russia with its Soviet leaders in the face of a half-starved populace elinging stubbornly to its five-year plan. This, in substance, and omitting a few lesser nations, is Europe today. It anust be admitted that Europe is both alive and unstable. It must also be ‘admitted that anything which may heip ‘calm these internal un&nux:'tlifi-hoe( e score of European nations a contribution both to thetr wel- and to a saner and more pros- perous world.

Spain, September | 27.—Not far from this town, on whos? large sandy beach the King of Spain | and his court and diplomatic corps from | Madrid, the Spanish gentry and the mid- dle class seek refuge during the Summer | months from the sun that devastates | their country, transforming it every Fall | into & desert, lies on the shore of the Biscayan Gulf a small Basque fisher- | men’s port called Lequeitio. Although | beautifully picturesque, it is unknown to tourists. A railway line winds far around it so that it can be reached only by car or by an old bus filled | with Spanish peasants. There is only one modest hotel in | Lequeitio, very few shops, and some fishermen’s bars. In the middle of the village rises a fine church in the Jesuit | style and next it, right over the beach, is a large, gray stons house surrounded | by a shady garden. In this house, vis- | Ible already from a distant twist of the | road, lives isolated from the world the | exiled ‘mperial family of Hapsburg. | Ex-Empress Zita with her son Arch- | duke Otto, whom many Hungarians consider as thelr king, and her en other children, lives here. Any visitor to Lequeitio during August and Septem-~ ber could have easily seen how false wers' the reports circulated but a few ‘weeks ago around all the European capitals saying that Otto had secretly entered Budapest clad in & monk’s robes, accompanied by his mother in black widow's veils.

Herr Grassmann expressed his opinion quietly, but with intense conviction., As head of Germany's largest trade union | with a thembership of more than 5,000,~ 000 or 70 per cent of all organized Ge:- man labor, he is felt to be in a posi- | tion to speak with authority on the at- | titude of labor. | The organ of the Centrist party sig: nificantly observed yesterday that “the Bruening government is much stronger | than many belleve, or can even imagine.” | Democracy is good enough.” it says, | ut when it deteriorates into exc S which bring destruction upon a people, | then the responsible leaders of this! people are duty bound to make cor: rections corresponding to the advanc ment of the common weal.” { For Determined Leader. !

BY EUGENE CRAWFORD. By Radlo to The Star. VIENNA, Austria, September 27— Surprise and disappointment, not to say | consternation, reign in Austria as a! result of the latest developments in the | government crisis. gut By standing firm for the appointment | of Herr Strafella as general manager | of the Austrian railways, Vice Chan- cellor and Minister of War Karl Vaugoin forced Chancellor Johann Schober " to tender President Wilhelm Miklas the resignation of the entire cabinet. This resignation, President Miklas, himself a clerical, promptly, acceptgd, and soon thereafter indicated that he was likely to designate Herr Vaugoin as successor | by issuing the statement that he wished | to have a chancellor who would Te- | unite the three leading Conservative parties—Christian Socialists, Pan-Ger- mans and Agrarians—into a coalition. Committees in Session. The Executive Committees of these parties today are holding long sessions and exchanging viewpoints on the bi‘.sl&l of a new coalition. The Pan-Germans appear t. be ready to rejoin the clericals on almost any program that Herr Vaugoin, under Dr. Ignaz Seipel's instructions, chooses to | adopt. The Agrarians are more reluctant, | but may possibly capitulate. { The opinion of the Austrian populace, as voiced by the majority of important newspapers and-coffec house conversa- tions, is one of the greatest disgust. ‘The general feeling is that Dr. Seipel used Herr Schober to pull his chestnuts from the fire, namely, to obtain a| forelgn loan and then on an absolutely unimportant, non-political Guestion have him thrown out, and that, too, on a day which marked one year of Herr | Schober’s chancellorship. { May Be Withheld. Since the total of the foreign loan is not yet paid to Austria, there is fear that Herr Schober's overthrow will cause foreign backers to withhold this indefi- nitely. Whether this actually occurs will depend on the general policy of the | new coalition. | Dr. Seipel himself enjoys confidence | in some quarters abroad and is credited | with saving Austria in 1922, when, as & matter of fact, Herr Schober, months prevoiusly, would have been able to save | the country if Dr, Seipel had not then done exactly the same thing which he | is doing now. When the Austrian currency stood at 5,000 crowns to the dollar, Herr Schober | arranged a loan which would have pre- | vented its further downfall. Dr. Seipel, maneuvered him out, with the result| that the loan was canceled and the currency continued to topple, until, | when it was finally stabilized, it had | reached the ratio of 70,000 to the dollar. During the last few years Herr Vaugoin as minister of war has culti- | vated in the army a sentiment which would make most soldiers willing tools | of any radical who might wish to use them for a putsch or revolt. Herr Schober as head of all the Austrian police has inculcated in this body of men a lovalty to law and order and readiness to oppose a putsch from either the right or the left. Many believe that Herr Vaugoin as chagcellor would appoint a new police hnx. If this actually occurs, it may be safely assumed that he has dicta- torial dreams. Herr Schober at heart is as anti-Socialist as Vaugoin or Dr. | Setpel, but perfers to oppose Socialism wuff a firm government which will wean workers from ‘the red banner rather than use threats or peril. Damper on Shouts. Appreciating this honesty and fair method of fighting, the Austrian So- clalist party recently put a strong dam- per on its shouts about class warfare and every capitalist being the workers’ enemy. Socialist leaders were gradual- ly realizing that such talk was 1apidly breeding among non-Socialists a simi- lar intolerance which might ultimately rise up and destroy them. If Herr Schober is pushed entirely into the background, he may form his own party or he may retire irom pub- lic life. If he retires, the gencral be- lef is that Austria’s future peace and stabllity are very uncertain, Sensing the possibility that Herr Schober's successor may wish to name a new police head, a deputation rep- resenting all the branches of the Vienna police today Visited Herr Schober and informed him that the police wished that he would not re- £ign his position as president of the Austrian police even if he is unable to regain the chancellorship, (Copyright, 1930.) |YOUNG MOTHER ROUTS GUESTS AND POLICEMEN Brooklyn Woman Gets Best of Five Men and an Equal Number of Officers.
