LEAGUE PUZZLED AT SUDDEN ACTIVITY

MAY PREFACE, HAPSBURG RESTORATION

Geneva, June 4.

League of Nations circles are puzzled to know the meaning of warlike reports from Italy,

In the first place, schools in Northern Italy are being closed a month before the date of the normal holidays, to enable the buildings to be made available for military purposes.

Secondly, certain naval reserves have been called up. Thirdly, two more classes of reservists have been ordered to remain in readiness.

Fourthly, Italians at Geneva have been warned to be in readiness to join up.

Fifthly, there is much military activity, on both the French and Yugo-Slavian frontiers.

The reports, coupled with the rest turn of Marshul Badogito, nay be intended an a warning to the Powers if sanctions are maintained or intensi- fied, or they may be connected with the restoration of the Hapsburgs.

The fact that Dr. Schuschnig, Aus- trian

Chancellor, is at present visiting Viareggio, where he will possibly see Signor Mussolin, seems to support the intter hypothesis, and it is re- ported that in agreement regarding the return of the Hapsburgs has been reached between Italy and Germany. --Reuter,
