VIENNA, 24 (U.R) Demonstrations by Austrian Nazis against Chancellor Kurt Schusehnlggs speech began In many places throughout Austria tonight, even before the conclusion of the speech. BY ROBERT BEST United Press Staff Correspondent VIENNA, Feb. 21 (U.R) Germany has recognized the full sovereignty of Austria and agreed not to interfere in her internal affairs, including any attempt to introduce nazism, Chancellor Kurt Schusch-nig- g informed the Austrian federal diet tonight in a speech clarifying the agreement between the ' two states. Takes Stand concluded his Schuschnlgg speech with the ringing cry: "Austria will remain free and for this we will fight to the death. broadcast In the speech, throughout Austria and central Europe, Schuschnigg reported to the nation on his confrence Feb. 12 with Fuehrer Adolf Hitler at Berchtesgaden. The chancellor emphasized that Austria considers herself a German state and hence a free one, with with a mission to other German states in the interests of the race. Regarding Berchtesgaden, he said: Recognises Freedom The agreement reached between the two partners at includes, firstly, the stats- -' ment that the German government recognizes the full sovereignty of the federal statfr of Austria. Secondly, the two governments will not influence the political structure of the other's country, the question of national including socialism, directly or indirectly. Thirdly, the Austrian government will lead its policy, especially so far as its internal policy is concerned, in accordance with the fact that Austria declared herself a German state. JBgrcb-tesgad- en In this connection, the agreement referred to the Rome protocols concerning Austrias relations with her neighbors, especially Hungary and Italy. "The time of tension is over and a new agreement has been concluded. Our sincere desire is that it will fulfill what both parties hope it will fulfill. Regarding the German nazi and the Austrian ideas of a state, Schuschnigg said: Tolerates No Interference "If from the German side it is said that it would be incompatible with the prestige and dignity of the German people if Austria opposed the political idea of the state in Germany, then I refer to the fact that Austria always has been prepared to take cognizance of this fact, more so because internal German affairs are outside any political discussions in Austria, in which principle we will continue. "But we are of the opinion that there should be no exceptions and there should be no interference in internal Austrian affairs, especially so far as the Austrian idea of the state is conwith cerned, and in connection illegal activities in Austria which are directed towards the German idea of the state." Idaho Governor Blames Delayed Audit For Trouble BOISE, Ida., Feb. 24 (U.R) Growth of a situation at the state penitentiary which resulted in the return of eight county grand jury indictments against two of the prison's former officials was due to a lack of checking the institutions financial operations, governor Barzilla Clark believed today. The chief executive, titular head of the Democratic party in Idaho, broke for the first time his silence regarding the indictments of Ira J. Taylor, present commissioner of public works and chairman of the Democratic party and Tony C. Phelan, chief clerk during Taylors regime as warden of the penitentiary. Governor Clark said that deof the prisons layed auditing books peiiuittcd irregularities to take form in the institutions financial transactions.

"I can see how Taylor may have been drawn into a compromising situation through lack of an audit, the governor said. A man is not being wise to stay in office without demanding periodic checkups on financial transactions in his department. The governor said the Indictment of the two men was the direct result of improper supervision of the prison books. Shortages and irregularities, he said, are the usual outcome of delayed audits, and this is an additional argument for audits to be made regularly. "I cannot think of any reasonas to why some state departments were allowed to run several years without an audable explanation it," he said. The governor expressly pointed out that he was not defending cither of the two indicted men. He declared he was merely drawing an example of how delayed auditing of department books could cause trouble. |
