Austro German Union Tied to Bank Rescue Crisis
On the eve of the League of Nations meeting in Geneva the Creditanstalt in Vienna was saved by a 20 million dollar Austrian government advance. Austria must seek league permission to float a foreign loan, with France in a position to grant and wary of Austro German ties. The Rothschilds are urged to write down inflated holdings. The bank owes over 100 million in foreign obligations and may seek aid via the league or international settlements. J F Darling criticizes world conferences and silver parley as unlikely to solve depressions. The piece notes economic motives behind the Austro German union and hints at possible French pressure and British action in silver and Orient markets.
