LONDON Following a ninety-minute session of the cabinet on Saturday at which the Italian invasion of Albania was discussed, it was announced that Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain was returning immediately from a fishing holiday in Scotland. The government took a serious view of developments although it was generally believed that the Italian action would not lead to hostilities involving Great Britain. BUCHAREST King Carol, with leading government and military officials, has been makinj a survey of Roumanian troops on the Hungarian frontier along which several Roumanian divisions have been placed as a precautionary measure in protection against a possible attempted Hungarian coup d'etat.

I their Eastern allies against furth er Italo-German expansion. While Great Britain and France are reported to be taking determined steps to offset any further acts of aggression by Germany or Italy, extraordinary preeauUons of special magnitude have been ordered taken by the various arms of service against surprise attack. The French cabinet has also been called into emergency session. ' Crisis Thickens- There were reports last night that Germany was moving large ! numbers of troops towards Bel gium and Holland. Any attack on the; countries by Germany would undoubtedly be regarded as an attack against British and French interests and could not but lead to general war. It is freely said that the Italian invasion of Albania is but a spring board to Greece and possibly Turkey and Jugo-Slavia. Europe appears to be rapidly rushing toward the most serious crisis since the beginning ol the Great War. Indeed, certain circumstances existing today resemble the conditions which Immediately preceded August 1914.
