New Order Amid Europe’s Strife and Economic Collapse
Frank Comerford surveys Europe postwar unrest, noting rising interest in a new order as old guard business leaders shift to concession and reform. He details crippling debts, currency collapse, and shortages across France, Poland, Austria, and Czecho Slovakia, urging unity to avert revolution. He cites Prague currency reforms, Warsaw shortages, and Vienna’s ghostly poverty, warning that Europe must rebuild and share burdens to endure. Friends of revolution thrive on stubborn capitalists clinging to old ways, as the continent tries to recover from war. He also marks Mark Twain’s 1885 birth and career, noting his prominence as America’s humorist.
