...pledging themselves and their descendants through all eternity to the House of Habsburg. These Legitimists have a pretty plan that Austria's "loyal provinces" should declare one by one that they are bound to Otto in virtue of the great oath. More likely to succeed seems a royalist putsch financed from Italy, though virtuous young Otto has said that he could never take a Throne made his by revolution. Once the Throne is really in sight Austrians are confident that Zita could conquer Otto's scruples. Masterful and imperious, it was "Empress" Zita's great triumph last week that...
From Radical Socialist Gaston Bergery, accused of begging money to arm the Left against the Right: "I said: 'Unless the Government disarms the Fascist, Royalist and Nationalist organizations it will render inevitable the arming of the Left and extreme Left forces'. . . .Tomorrow it won't be an uprising, but a coup d'état.

The tragic outcome of Otto's father's experiments in that direction...
...world. He runs with natural ability a job not of his own choosing, which your Brain Trust would bungle in a day. Stretch every American's brain far enough to grasp that the monarchy is a different thing from the man who is King, and that British royalist sentiment has little to do with the blah-haw-haw which selected Englishmen, usually pabliticians, spill through the cigar smoke at Hands-Across-the-Sea dinners...
