VIENNA, March iL-Amid con- stant minors and alarms oi forth- coming restoration oi the Hspsburg dynasty in Austria, unusual interest was aroused tonight by addresses given by Chancellor Engelbert Doll- fuss and Cardinal Innitrer to a ga- thering oi Croatisns.

Although technically speaking the Croatiaris, formerly part of Austria, are not at present under Austrian rule, the Chancellor and the Cardi- nsl dropped several remarks inter- preted as gestures toward Croatisna forming part oi the Austro-l-lungar- isn Empire.

The Croatians now form s discon- tented element in the kingdom o! Yugoslavia.

Cardinal Innitser appealed to the croatinns to remain always "EOOd Catholics. scod Croats and scod Austrians."

Discusses Restoration

At the sense time, however, Baron Friedrich von Wiesner, legitimist lender, discussed Hapsburg restora- tion in the week-end edition oi the newspaper Weltblatt, and revealed that Austrian Monarchists were un- pleasantly surprised to find an un- friendly attitude toward revocation of the Hspsburg laws frankly ex- pressed in foreign countri.

Von Wiesner argued that revoca- tion oi ghese isws has nothing to do with the question of restoring the Hapsbiirg dynasty. He added that:

“foreign powers unfriendly to the idea of restoration are making it appear that more revocation of the law banishing the Emperor and his

national question"

Such an attitude, he said, “is an unjustifiable intrusion in the inter- nal affairs oi’ our country."
