Habsburg-Savoy Union certain to be held in Rome

November 12, 1936

Well-informed court circles regard as certain the engagement of Princess Maria, youngest daughter of the King and Queen of Italy, to Archduke Otto of Austria.   The New York Times reports that the "engagement has already been concluded and remains only to be announced."
It is believed that the engagement "may coincide" with Admiral Nicholas Horthy's visit to Rome.   Horthy is the Hungarian regent.
