Abstract

Keeping Hitler Out of Austria

Gunther, John | February 14, 1934 issue

add to cart   close window

The article focuses on the role of Austrian chancellor Engelbert Dollfuss in maintaining the independence of Austria. The Nazi campaign has continued with unabashed and unabated violence. Thousands of known Nazi agitators are roaming Austria almost immune to arrest. The only victim so far of the flew death-penalty decree has been a half-wit peasant arsonist. The German terrorist campaign in several ways defeats itself. It gives Dollfuss a better excuse to maintain his semi-dictatorship, and it serves to back the country, against the wall of its own patriotism. Dollfuss, like most Austrian Catholics, is at heart a legitimist, and the chief members of his Cabinet avowedly favor an eventual Hapsburg restoration.
