P Staff Correspond ent) The "Hapsbursr Peril," is reflected in all Europe today. Throughout the continent there are hasty conferences on the attempt of former Emperor Karl to return to the Hungar ian throne. Military actions by the outside nations is a possibil ity. Karl's success, it is believ ed, would be the signal for a wholesale release of noble ex iles from Switzerland and per haps even the return of a Ho henzollern to Germany, which is now in a turmoil. King Con ?antine's successful appeal to the people was believed to have brought aboutKarl's speetacu lar effort to reinstate himself. The evidence here is that -Karl i is keenly disappointed that his return to Hungary had not re sulted in an instantaneous up rising by his people. Even aft er the private conferences wherein he was shown that the time was not ripe for his return, he persisted. His first effort ' was to obtain the support of General Baron Eehar, corns mander of the west Hungarian forces. "I have sworn allegi ance to the Horthy govern ment,' the baron replied. "I must keep my oath as a soldier.' Karl then arranged a confer ence with Admiral Horthy him self. ' Horthy was respectful but firm. Karl, with the as sumption of his old authority. I told the new Hller that his choice lay between the king and the nation," Horthy re plied. "Only parliament can. decide whether Hungary is again to become a monarchy."
