International lawyers have been surprised lately to find the expression “Austro-Hungarians” and “Austrian-Hungarians” appearing in several announcements of the Department of Justice since January 26, 1942. They recall that up to 1867 only Austrian citizenship existed. After that date, when Austria and Hungary formed two separate states linked merely by a common sovereign and in certain matters of foreign representation and war, citizens of the Empire had either Austrian or Hungarian citizenship, never an Austro-Hungarian.1 International lawyers may also have remembered the amusing error in the annex to Article 203 of the Treaty of St. Germain, where an “Austro-Huhgarian Law of December 30, 1907, Imperial Law Collection Number 278” is quoted. Such a law never existed and never could have existed.
