OAKLAND TRIBUNE, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 22, 1936 FRENCH FEAR HITLER THRUST AT AUSTRIA Ministers Confer Over Rumored German Threat Against Independence PARIS, April uneasiness in French official circles over rumors of a German threat to Austrian independence was reflected today in a conference between Pierre-Etienne Flandin, the foreign minister, and Louis Felix Maurin, minister of war. The visit of the war minister to Flandin's office followed a talk of hours between the foreign minister and Andre Francois-Poncet, French ambassador to Berlin. Informed sources said the ambassador reported on the Reich's military preparations. Francois-Poncet's absence from Berlin leaves both France and Germany without- official representatives at the other's Capital since Count Jean de Welczeck, who was named by the Hitler Government to succed the late Roland Koester, has not yet presented his creden- tials. PERIL IS DETECTED Fear of a sudden thrust by Hitler toward Austria in the near future increased in Paris as France's "iron chain" around Germany appeared weakening.

This feeling was inspired in part by Reich military demonstrations and reported war preparations, including the priming of the aircorps and the rushing of Rhineland fortifications. German press predictions of "sensational events" in Austria led persons in 1 official circles to the opinion it was increasingly likely Germany may strike in the direction of Austria, while Italy still is occupied with its Ethiopian campaign. In informed quarters it was believed the "anschluss," or annexation of Austria, if attempted, will start as a coup by Austrian Nazis, with the support of Chancellor Hitler and German troops. 'ANSCHLUSS' FORESEEN The newspaper Ere Nouvelle that "everybody at the League of Nations Council meeting thought the remilitarization of the Rhineland and other preparations being actively pushed have for their object the early realization of an anschluss." Mme. Genevieve Tabouis, widelyknown expert on European affairs, writing in the newspaper Louevre, reported some foreign diplomats in Berlin were disquieted over German military preparations.

She said they "believe it possible the anschluss may come any day in the form of a small interior putsch at Linz, followed by the entry of several National (Nazis) into the cabinet of Chancellor Schuschnigg, which then would impose a plebiscite to determine the future status of Austria." REVOLT PLOT CHARGED French leftists also have 'raised the charge that Dr. Paul Joseph Goebbels, German minister of propaganda, was interfering in the French elections campaign by "inciting Alsation peasants to revolt against the regime and country."

Under Anna Lee Guest, head of the social science department of Piedmont High School, the entire student body. today began a twoday exact replica of a National Republican Convention, even to casting their State ballots. To one who has actually attended a national convention, the resemblance was, startlingly accurate. Bands played, flags waved from the ceiling, State delegates held their banners aloft, crowds tried to "crash the gate," a long press and telegraph table was in evidence. Even the political oratory ran according to form, except that it was more eloquent and more factual than most elder politicians delivering nominating speeches manage.
