(Editor’s note: In a moated thir- teenth century castle, 17 miles from Brussels, a 24-year-old Hapsburg s preparing for the day when he may be callell to the Austrian throne. An Associated Press writer visited him and in the following story gives an intimate picture of < young man with a royal mission.) BY LOUIS MATZHOLD. STEENOCKERZEEL, Belgium, July 8.—The dignity and reserve which endear Otto von Hapsburg to Aus- trian legitimists probably would nake | him appear a stiff, overserious youth in the United States. The personable 24-year-old pre- tender to the Austrian throne prob- ably wouldn't be a flashing sensation | in a group of Americans of his own age. He might be popular, in a quiet gort of way, but one would not expect him to be a leader in racy society. H® drives a fast car but only to get somewhere to do something of im- portance. He drinks nothing alco- holic. He never has been in a night | club and believes, from what he has heard, that such a place must be ! rather bering. He participates in the customary gports. Despite his muscular build he does not excel in any particular one —and doesn't cz Sports Might Distract Him. “If 1 were expert in some sport it | might interest me to such an extent that it might take time from the work I have to do,” he told this writer, thus epitomizing his devotion to his mission. Otto does not give interviews; he “grants audiences.” and these usually | only after months of negotiations through adjutants. His life is a schooling in the traditions and no- | tions of the house of Hapsburg. ‘ Chief and final barrier between Otto | and the world, besides Steenockerzeel | Castle's moat, is Count Heinrich Degenfeld, 50, his educator and com- panion. In a dozen little ways, the ecount seems indispensable to the mustached young man who hopes to | restore the Hapsburg dynasty in the | Danubian Valley { For example, it seems contrary to some Hapsburg notion of propriety for the emperor to carry a watch or pocket money. | So when Otto wants to know the! time he asks Degenfeld | When Otto wants to buy cizarettes Degenfeld dizs down for the change. The walls of Otto's second-flot study are covered with 1.600 certifi-| cates that this or that Austrian city | has accorded Otto honorary citizen- ship—a demonstration which legm-‘ mate leaders believe “amounts to a plebiscite.” | Otto, like his granduncle, the former Emperor Franz Josef—{eels himself | divinely obligated to serve his empire. | He prays devoutly, fears God, is an | earnest Catholic. | Otto's forehead is high and ex- tremely pale. His eyes are brown, un- der irregular brow is hair is dark and his mustache closely clipped.
