The Central Tyrol Powder Keg

E. v. KUEHNE LT-LEDD IHN

If it weren’t for the serious tension over Berlin and the Algerian imbroglio, the Tyrolean problem would probably dominate the political scene today. This issue affects only a small area, the central part of the Tyrol (misnamed the South Tyrol), but deeply disturbing events often have modest origins. The origins of this quarrel, seemingly affecting only small, happy-go-lucky Austria (pleasantly preoccupied with its sudden prosperity) and Italy, with a population seven times as large, are simple.
