"The Puss Plpsisls Fur- nsee has been yery satisfac- gory, We hays given it In IX- trsms hot and Ilnd that it is a real heater and coll saver. I am more than pleased"

The Czechoslovak Republic. es- tablished at the close oi the Great War upon the ruins oi the old Aust-roI-Iungarian Empire has up tn now been a “terra incognita" in an average foreigner notwithetand. ing its geographical position in the very heart oi Europe and its im- portance which this young State is called to play in the successful solution. oi economi problems which the various Succession States present. '

The former ‘Danuhlan Empire was not essentially an industrial State. The industrial ieatures which-it possessed. howqver, were derived mainly irom Bohemia, Mor- avia and Silesia which composed the historical area oi the Czecho- slovak Republic representing 80% oi the whole oi industry 0i Austro- l-Iungarian Monarchy.

Some people have been anxious irom the economic point oi view about the new order 0i things in Central Europe as inetead oi a ein- gle economic whole there suddenly appears a group oi email States each oi which seeks to solve every economic problem irom llg own

oi Austro-Hungsrian Regime repre- sented by the German could not but hamper subject na-

tions in their progress and the nai-

ural process must necessarily re-

sult in destroying oi this middle-

aged Empire which had any longer

the right to exist. The new crea-

tive powers oi liberated nations

which were thus brought into play

manifested themselves in carrying

out reforms which have brought

the whole world to admiration.

This applies particularly to the

economic and ﬁnancial position 0t

Czechoslovakia with which neither

Austria nor Hungary oi Germany

sustain any comparison.

The ﬂrst duty oi‘ the Czechoslo-

vak Government on taking over

the control oi the aiialrs oi the

country was to ensure the means

oi existence oi the population

which meant the import oi iood-

stuiiis. to recover the economical

life and ‘currency which was car-

ried out through radical successful

methods so that the Czechoslovak

crown counts today among the ap-

preciated and most stable exchange

in Europe and last but not the least to re-establiah the export trade on which the prosperity oi

the country is mainly dependent.

Czechoslovakia was never so egcie-

tic as to iorge-t that its own econ-

omic prosperity depended on the

economic health oi tho neighbor- ing ‘States. ‘It has thereiore sought by a aeries oi commercial and other treaties to limit to the small- est proportions any hindrances to tradeytbat are involved by the _ior- motion oi the new iron-tiers and took the initiative in supplying help towards the economic reconstruc- tion oi those neighbors whose pol- itical and economic policy did so much to bring Europe in diiilcul- ties. lt has taken its iull share in the international reliei meas- ures. Commercial treaties with all European States and with most oi the overeas countries have al- ready been concluded. The iavor. able results oi this right commer- cial policy are clearly demonstrat- ed ln the Czechoslovak ioreign
