Vienna: Prince Oscar
von Hohenzollern, son of the former Kaiser of Germany, visits Austria’s nationalist
Heimwehr paramilitary with 30 members of Germany’s Stahlhelm (also a
nationalist paramilitary), of which Prince Oscar is a member. The timing couldn’t be worse for Austrian
Chancellor Johan Schober, trying to disarm such groups as he promised the
League of Nations. In the face of
Schober’s intentions, the Heimwehr has announced it intends to hold parades
every Sunday through the summer.
Tokyo: Japan confirms
it is sending 25 (not 30) military officers as trainers for China’s nationalist
government military. Chinese communists
accuse Japan of meddling in China’s internal affairs. Meanwhile, a group of reserve naval officers
calls on Naval Minister Takarabe Takeshi to resign for the “unpardonable” act of
agreeing to the London Naval Treaty.
