Research for a timeline.

So in 1919 there was a referendum in Vorarlberg on whether it should join the Swiss Confederation. The people of Vorarlberg voted 80% in favor of joining the Confederacy, however this was opposed and stopped by the Government of Austria, elements of Swiss Society (Liberals, Franco-Swiss and Italo-Swiss) as well as the recently victorious Allies.

So my question is simple: How could Vorarlberg join the Confederation? What would have needed to happen, and what would the result in Switzerland and abroad be?

EDIT: I forgot to add the AHC into the title, so here it now is.
