DescriptionAutomobile accident which took Frau [Herma] Schuschnigg's life but from which Chancellor escaped uninjured thought possibly result of foul play, but no evidence car had been tampered with, and no question of fidelity of chauffer, who was seriously injured; attended informal dinner given by Argentine Chargé two days before accident; Chancellor and wife present, happy and relaxed, and looking forward to holiday; some speculation Chancellor might resign due to severe shock, but he is not a man to let personal grief interfere with performance of duty; hopes U.S. government sent message of sympathy; [Sir Samuel] Hoare's speech in House of Commons and his statements concerning Austria removed any uncertainty about England's support and cleared way for Danubian pacts; doubts date for Rome conference can be set however until Abyssinian question is settled.en_US
