HUNGARY WILL JOIN AXIS
To Sign Up At Vienna
BUDAPEST, Nov. 19 (Reuter)-It is understood that Hun gary's signature will be added to the Axis-Japan pact when Count Teleki. Premier, and Count Csaky, Foreign Minister, arrivo in Vienna to-morrow.
It is not expected that there will be any protocols of the pact datalling the military co-operation which might be expected to develop between Hungary and the Axis,
In view of the existing co-operation, Kuch protocols would be superfluous,
It is pointed out that signature of the pact by Hungary would be a formality. It would enable the Ger- mans to beat their propaganda big drum and no change in the situation for Hungary is expected,
The two ministers will probably re- turn to Budapest on Thursday.
