1039, the German-Austrian Customs Ono Bet (3) ENGRAVINGS Union will be in full operation.

Austria has thought out a scheme for wading the most-fnyoured- Į nation clause through a system 'of export credits. The theory is that interest on much credits is to-day some 12 per cent., as against a "normal" 4 per cent. The import- ing State, without lowering duties, would "refund" the difference be tween these rates of interest on the theoretical export credits-a system Which its Austrian inventors ad mit to be a diplomatic swindle" for granting a de facto preference without literally infringing exist- jag most-favoured-nation trenties. Austria's Gain.

AUCTIONEERS.

What Can Austria expect to gain from the Union? The interesta which would benefit most conspicu ously ure the agrarian and timber trades. Austrian timber would oust Polish and Czoch. from the Austria German markets, and would employ her mills by export. Ing sawn timber instead of, as at present, unaawn trunks. Hor dairy produce would compete as far away as in Berlin with that of outside suppliera-a vital point, as the in- crease in Austria's milk production is her one great post-war achievo. ment,

Austria's luxury goods, especially fancy leather, would compete with the French in the German markets Austrian workmen would be free to sock employment at the higher rate of wages obtaining in Gormany, In general, as unification, proceed- ed under the Union, she would expect hur whole industry to rian to the superior standard obtaining in Germany, and although natur ally still subject to the world crisis, she would hope to escape the pècu- liar "Austrian crisis in perman- ence" with which she has been affected sines 1018..

The chief industries in which hostility to the Customs Pact are found more or less generally are the chemical industry (except in so far as this has become morely a branch of the German Interes- sengemeinschaft), the iron-working industries generally, especially the machine industry and the motor industry. Austrian iron prices are much higher, and the iron indie tries are all jess woll organised, Jess rationalised," than in Ger many,

Director Goatzl, of the Stoyr Mo- tor Works, however, supports the Union, despite the inevitable flood. ing of Austria with cheap Cer- man cars (an Opol car costs twice as much in Vienna as in Berlin), beause he hopes to switch over to mass production on entering the big German market.

eign tariffs would expose the Aus trian manufacturers, to ruinous competition from abroad, the Aus trian instead of the German duties will be levied on both frontiers.

Bismarkian Polley,

To protests against dictatorial methods, the Austrian bureaucracy replies that if Bismarık had hoed. ed in 1871 all the complaints from manufacturers in the petty German States, the Zollverein would never have been brought about. The • opposition in the Austrian hea industries at the start was hushed up in the Vienna Press, but it came from at least 80 per cent, of those industries. Anxiety has now been much allayed, and in Styria, the most important area, probably, at least 50 per cent, is in favour.

Agriculture is so delighted at the prospect of union, coupled with preferential tariffs on the German railways, that the leader of the

Minister Agrarians,

Vinzenz Schumy, declares that in future this much subsidised interest will be able to dispense with all finan cial support. The Alpine Montanó Gesellschaft, the great Styrian iron-ore Arm, is to bo helped through coming difficulties by the Voreington Stahlwerke in the "Rubr (of which the Alpine is now little more than a subsidiary) taking large quantities of ore and redue- ing freights by filling the trucks in exchange with Ruhr coke.

Within the last few days it has become clear that industrial anxiety is being stirred up and exploited for political ends by the adherents of Monsignor Seipel and other Clericals who dream of a Danuly Federation, which will to some ex tent correspond with the old Habs. burg Monarchy, and who knows? might one day find a Habsburg willing to rule it again.

Idle Factories... The economic and political an- xiety felt in Prague and the pali-, tical anxiety of Paris (even thouga the pacific 0,000,000 Austrian Catho- lies would be counterbalance rather than a support to Prussian "militarism") are fully appreciat ed in Vienna. But the majority of Austriaan. fool that their country is being dragged down even faster by the millstone of unwanted "in- dependence tied around its neck.
