ANTI-NAZI BOOKS BANNED

Austria Acts Apparently Under
Pressure From Germany

Wireless to THE NEW YORK TIMES.

VIENNA, Dec. 4.—The govern-
ment last night prohibited the sale
of several anti-Nazi books, among
them the famous Hitler biography
by Konrad Heiden and another by
Rudolf Olden, and a history of the
thirtieth of June, 1934, by Otto
Strasser.

The measure apparently was
forced on the government by pres-
sure from Nazi Germany and is
considered an indication that Ger-
many is attempting to stamp out
the activities of German émigrés in
neighboring countries.

It is learned that similar meas-
ures will be taken in Czechoslovakia
in connection with negotiations for
a. press truce between Berlin and
Prague. Herr Strasser’'s weekly
with Socialist tendencies has been
banned by the Prague authorities
and several agencies which supplied
the foreign press with reports from
Germany have been ordered closed.

Germany is particularly anxious
to stamp out Czech anti-Nazi litera-
ture that is smuggled into Ger-
many.

Nobel literature prize winner;
and Angelus Gottfried Mann,
