Foreign
ministers
of
Germany
and
Italy,
meeting
here
yesterday
as
mediators
in
the
territorial
dispute
between
Czechoslovakia
and
Hungary,
gave
away
another
slice
of
Czechoslovakia
by
awarding
Hungary
almost
its
entire
claim.
The
area
given
to
the
Hungarians
is
some
.4875
square
miles
and
contains
a
population
estimated
at
860,000.
Although
Czech
officials
at
Prague
described
the
award
as
a
''crime
of
injustice,"
it
was
accepted
by
both
sides
as
final.
The
Hungarian
occupation
is
scheduled
to
commence
on
Saturday
and
end
November
10.
