Austrian Profiteers Revel at Semmering Resort Revels amid luxury and profiteering
Vienna dispatch describes Semmering as a snowy winter refuge for Austrian profiteers, with costly hotels, lavish apparel, and high prices. It highlights a 29-year-old “schieber” banker and others who built fortunes during wartime upheaval, amid a setting of sleighs, toboggans, and opulent leisure. The piece notes the contrast with war news in the lowlands and calls Semmering a paradox of quiet luxury and financial excess.
