garia 19, rise to 23 for Poland, 25 for Yugoslavia and 27 for Hungary (see
“The Economist‘“, October 2nd, 1926). .
It would be short-sighted not to realise that it is now hardly possible for single states, in
view of the train of economic thought now prevailing in a large part of Europe, to retrace their
steps on a way, along which they have progressed so far. It is likely, on the contrary, that the
movement in the indicated direction will gain in acceleration. Protection granted to one branch of
the economic life must necessarily awake a desire for similar protection in other branches and an
increase of tariffs in one country compels the adoption of a higher tariff in another country, the
inerease of duties being found insufficient, as a rule, as soon as it has been introduced. An
international solution of these difficulties, or at least a solution agreed upon by the prineipal
European states, would alone be able to effect a change in this state of things which is now
universally recognised as untenable. Such a solution has been attempted at the Economic World
Conference held at Geneva (May, 1927) and at the Stockholm Meeting of the International
Chamber of Commerce (June, 1927). As long as it is not effected, Austria will have to try to
lirect her exports in an inereasing degree to markets further afıeld, whose customs barriers are
either less high or have at least not been raised with a protectionist end in view. A movement in
this direction has already been noticeable, though to judge from foreign trade figures, such a
;endency has not yet been very pronounced during the last years. Endeavours to that effect would
be favoured, one should think by the fact that a large number of Austrian products, in the export
of which the geographical point of view is of secondary importance Only, were competing sSuccess-
fully on the world-market in pre-war times already, thanks to their excellent quality or thanks
to the originality of their forms and the artistic taste in which they are conceived and finished.
Austrian industry and trade produce an increasing number of articles which are easily saleable
on distant markets and it is the purpose of this book to draw attention to the respective branches
of production. The share which the various countries had in Austrian exports, expressed in per-
centages of the total amount, in the years 1924, 1925 and 1926 is shown in the following table.

Foreign importers are not concerned, as a rule, with the geographical position of the place
where an article comes from, but their interest is generally limited to ascertaining the quality
and the price of goods. It will depend of the economic situation existing in the importing country,
or of the conditions of the elass of the population which are the ultimate consumers of the 200ds,
whether the one or the other moment will be decisive. In regard to quality it may be elaimed for
Austrian products that the precision of their workmanship and the extraordinary amount of
attention which is being devoted to their production distinguish them favyourably as a rule. The

CONDITIONS DE LA VIE Il existe une relation étroite très évidente entre les sa laires pratiqués par l’industrie dans une localité ou une région donnée, et le prix des denrées de première néces sité, des logements,etc., — en un mot,le prix de la vie — dans cette région ou cette localité. S’occupant de l'un, on ne saurait négliger l’autre, et il convient donc d’exa miner les conditions de la vie dans les contrées dont les salaires ont été indiqués précédemment. Ainsi qu’il a été dit, l’industrie cotonnière badoise se trouve en presque totalité dans les vallées, à la campagne. La maison que l'ouvrier habite lui appartient très sou vent; s’il n’est pas propriétaire, il logera presque toujours dans les maisons que la fabrique où il travaille met à sa disposition^ Dans le sud, des logements de trois pièces et cuisine, avec jardin, quelquefois un champ, sont loués à l’ouvrier pour la somme de 100 à 110 marks par an, soit 124 à 137 francs par an ou 4 fr. 75 à 5 fr. 25 par quin zaine. Si le logement se compose de 4 pièces et une cui sine, il coûte 25 fr. de plus par an, soit environ 1 ir. de plus par quinzaine. Dans la région moyenne, un loge ment de 3 pièces et une cuisine avec jardin, se loue de 130 à 156 marks par an, c’est-à-dire 160 à 194 francs, soit par quinzaine 6 fr. 15 à 7 fr. 45. Les prix varient peu dans cette région, entre les diverses localités; ils sont 5
