BERLIN, March 10 —(U.E)— Fuehrer Adolf Hitler, angered by the calling of a plebiscite on Sunday to determine the future of Nazism in Austria, consulted with his advisors tonight on a possible course of direct action.
Officials of the third Reich asserted flatly that Germany will refuse to recognize any vote against “Anschluss’’ (Austro-German union) because the plebiscite is an outright anti-Nazi maneuver on the part of Chancellor Kurt Schuschnigg.
The Essen National Zeitung, organ of Field Marshall Hermann Wilhelm Goering, asked tonight who Schuschnigg’s “advisors” were in his decision to hold the plebiscite.
REICH UNINFORMED
“None is able to say what men behind the scenes induced Schuschnigg to take this step—it is all the more surprising that Schuschnigg, notwithstanding the Berchtesgaden agreement, failed to inform the Reich government of his plans,” the newspaper said.
There were reports from Rome that Premier Benito Mussolini knew In advance of Schuschnigg’s plan and consented to it.
Many observers believed that Hitler, during the next 24 hours, might direct a demarche to Vienna protesting against the plebiscite.
MORE DISORDERS POSSIBLE
Such a decision on der Fuehrer's part undoubtedly would stir thousands of Austrian Nazis to even greater disorders than those reported from Vienna and other Austrian communities tonight.
It wTas conceivable, these observers said, that Schuschnigg’s defiance of a German demarch might ultimately lead to Hitler’s renunciation of his Feb. 12 "peace of Berchtesgaden” with Schuschnigg and throw down the gauntlet for what might easily become a state of rev- clanged through the streets amid olution in Austria.	j the din of the disorders.

Britain's Hope For Pact Fades
Chancellor Schuschnigg's Austrian Test Vote Threatens Neville Chamberlain's Proposed Great Britain-German Friendship
LONDON, March 10 — (U.P.) — Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain’s hope for a pact of friendship with Germany collapsed tonight, for the present at least, under the impact of Chancellor Kurt Schuschnigg’s bold move in calling a plebiscite to test the future of Naziism in Austria.

Rumors of a putsch, reminiscent of the Nazi uprising and assassination of Chancellor Engleburt Doll-fuss in the summer of 1934. brought troops and police reserves rushing to the chancellory when Chancellor Kurt Schuschnigg—staking his career and perhaps his life on the plebiscite—debated the necessity of martial law.

Scientific Films To Be Shown Today
German and American surgical operations will be pictured in three scientific films to be shown today at 2 p.m. in 5 Old College.
All those interested may attend the showing, which was requested by medical students, James Bullard, graduate student who arranged the program, stated yesterday.
Two German-made scientific pictures will portray an appendix operation and the mending of a broken knee cap. Lung surgery will be shown in color in an American film
JEWS TERRORIZED
Terror was added to the brawling when between 5,000 and 6.000 Nazis, defying the government by wearing stormtroop uniforms and flaunting Swastika emblems, invaded Vienna's Leopoldstadt ghetto shouting “Jud-ah, hop the twig!”—meaning. Jew. go hang yourself. Jews hid in their homes behind barred doors and shuttered windows.
The Fatherland Fran’t volk’s cut-tural section—only legal Nazi organization permitted in Austria ■ proclaimed in Vienna that the Nazis would abstain from the plebiscite.
“Yes” will be printed on the ballot after the question. To vote against, ‘no” must be written in and “yes” crossed out.
Ribbentrop encountered a far stiff er Brittish attitude than he had anticipated, due in part to rising anti-Nazi sentiment among the British people and the blunt refusal of several British dominions to consent to any colonial concessions to Germany as a means of laying a foudation of peace.
Germany’s first demand, listed even above the colonial demands, was one that certain sections of the British press cease their anti-Nazi

“Capitalism, Social Legislation, and Class War” will be the featured topic of Monday afternoon lecture, the final talk of a series of three delivered at U.S.C. by the Spanish educator.
“The many problems that creatt the civil war in Spain could hav been avoided had the new govern ment exercised tolerance, unde: standing, and diplomacy instead c going their own speedy way,” D Castillejo. who is permanent secre tary of the junta para amplicacio. de estudios (committee for the extension of study in Spain), declared
Formed in the days of the monarchy to decreased the immense amount of illiteracy, the junta was an educational movement designed to train teachers and intellectual leaders in the schools of higher learning. They in return would work for the education of the masses.
“The purpose of the organization was to change Spam through education and tolerance, not politics as it has been branded,” Dr. Castillejo declared. “Sch ice should be free of the influence yt politics so that it can advise governmental agencies writh predjudice.”
Dr. Castillejo will be interviewed over KFI 9:30 p.m. today.
Austrian Nazis are here shown parading their strength. Anschluss supporters in Graz give the Nazi salute at a demonstration which followed the broadcast from Berlin of the speech of Hitler who demanded the right of self-determination for Germans in Austria and Czechoslovakia.
