VIENNA. July 1. — (Correspond
ence of the Associated Press.)—Am
ericans who have lived in Austria for
• the major pert of the war have been
delighted to notice a distinct change
in the feeling of the public of late, a
reversion to the old popularity which
Americans always enjoyed here.
The change has been noticeable no
where more plainly than in the press,
which Insisted that good relations and
if possible better relations between
these countries and the republic are
desirable for both sides.
One factor is the emigration ques
tion, which touches Hungary more
acutely than it does Austria. It is a
factor that Involves some $150,000,
000 a year, for this is the sum that
it is estimated is sent back to Hun
gary annually from its citizens who
in normal peace times wander out to
America. So consistently have these
emigrants sent back part of their earn
ings that the government has come to
take it into careful account when bud
get and taxation matters come up each
year.
A second factor concerns me earn
and cure resorts of Austria, formerly
patronized chiefly by the English,
French and Itussians, and now suffer
ing cruelly from the war and having
to exist on none too free-handed Local
and German patronage. The shrewd
owners figure the matter out this
way: No matter how the wnr conies
out, it will lie a decade before the old
peace time patronage from England,
France and Russia can be won back.
Americans, however, they estimate,
will almost certainly flock to Europe
once peace is declared, and they hope
that the resorts in Austria can be
made to coax from Americans the
huge sums that they formerly drew
from other foreigners.
The Austro-American steamship
lines constitute a third factor in tlu
friendly relationships, for the theor
ists count on an unprecedented,influx
of travelers to Europe from the United
States, an InTlux that very conceiv
ably may tax to the uttermost limit
all existing transportation facilities,
and reckon that if Austria-Hungary
emerges from the war with the good
will of Americans there is nothing to
prevent a veritable avalanche of busi
ness for steamer lines to Austria,
more particularly so if Americans de
velop a partiality for Austrian resorts.
Austro-Hungarians also do not hesi
tate to admit that, if this part of the
world is to be put back on a normal
basis once more after the war, huge
importations of raw materials are go
ing to be imperatively necessary for
a time, and, what is more, an extend
ed credit to cover these importations
is going to be essential.
Nearly all the nations at war, but
particularly Germany and Austria
Hungary, have made remarkable ad
vances in the creation of substitutes
for articles and materials that have
given out. Many of these substitutes
will last far beyond the war, but con
servative men among the central
powers feel positive that by and large
everyone will go back to the old
things in use. The fact that substi
tutes have had to be created is but
the way of proving that importation
o| raw materials is absolutely neces
sary—and America is the greatest ex
porter of them in the world.
First and foremoBt, it is a question
that is asked not unfrequently whether
the monarchy is not going, after the
war if not during it, to need its emi
grants to America more than it needs
their money. Several army corps of
Austro-Hungarians are in the United
States, many or most of whom have
expressed themselves as willing and
glad to come buck, but who are unable
to do so.
