SVITZERLAND 15 VIEWING WITH ALARM
Movement to Link Germany and Austria Gives Berne Great Concern.
By KOBEKT J. FREW (X. N. S. Staff Correspondent.) PAR 1 3. March 15. Switzerland is viewing with growing: concern, the movement to unite Germany and Ger-tnan-Austria. according to information received here from Berne, today. Thi effect of such a confederation would leave Switzerland the only country with a Uerman-jpeakine-population not forming- a part of the German family. Kears are expressed. by soma Swiss statesmen that the eventual result would be the breaking up of th Swiss confederation. (About one-half of the Swiss speak the German language; most of the others speak French). The Austrian proposal to make Voralbcrg rart of Switzerland, has been received at Berne with mixed feelings. The effect of this annexation would be to give the German speaktrg rart of th Swiss population a preponderance over the section in which French and Italian are spoken. These proposals, as well as the suggestion to make Tyrol an independent stte. have not yet been taken up by the peace conference, nor has official opinion on them yet taken definite shape. The delegates, however, are prepared to grapple with all Austrian territorial problems, as soon as the preliminary terms for Germany are out of the way.
