EASTERN & AUSTRALIAN BAILINGS (SOUTIL.)

ULTIMATUM -Josef Bucrc- kel, Nazi commissioner in the Saur territory seized by Ger- many in 1935, believed to have taken the nina) ultimatum from Germany to Chancellor Schuschnigg in Vienna; Aus- trin. At first it was rumoured Field. Marshal Gocring had arrived by plane with the mes- sage, but this proved untric. The ultimatum demanded that Austrin postpone the proposed Independence plebiscite.

Jurs

BRITISH CLOUD RACERS—These are the new British "Hurricanes" of F Squadron, Royal Air Force, ready to take off on a test flight from Northolt Aerodrome, Middlesex. A plane of this type recently flew from Edinburgh, to London at an average speed of 408.75 miles an hour. They are designed to cover much of Europe, from a base in England.

COVETED BY NAZIS-View of Memel, Lithuania, which Germany indicated she would seize if Poland invaded the country, Memel formerly was German territory but waa detached from East Prussia by the Treaty of Versailles and consigned to Lithuania. Observem speculated whether a German march into Memel would help Poland or give base for Polish Corridor bargaining,

KEY-MAN-This is Dr. Arthur Seyss-Inquart, Austrian Minis- ter at the Interior, key-man in the accepted domination of his country by Germany. It was to Dr. Seyss-Inquart that 00,000 Nazi peasants looked for direc- tion when their desired parade in Graz, capital of Styria, was barred by the Austrian govern- ment.
