VIENNA, August 28—Three years
ago Vienna pulled a long lace—a very
long lace. Today, that lace is wreath
ed in smiles.
Three years ago Vienna was full ol
visitors—today the visitors are tew,,
and far between. The word has gone
out that Vienna is no longer cheap—
that, in fact, she is probably the most
expensive of continental cities to live
in.
The tourist who hates to be robbed
is conspicuously absent. The Ameri
can of English family desirous of set
tling temporarily on a small income
in a European city, gives Vienna the
go-by. And the ordinary cheap food
snatching transient buys his railwaj
ticket for a German town. Even the
Viennese themselves are following
his exan^’e and everyday the trains
for Germany are crowded.
In more ways than one it is not £
healthy condition.
Then and now-let us record the con
trasts. Three years ago good food was
scarce or non-existent. No butter 01
cheese and very few eggs. The breac
was horrible, a dark, uneatable mix
ture of corn, and something else
which caused, it was said, so mucl
physical disturbance that it was fet

You can get all the eggs and butter
and cheese you want, and meals of all
varieties.
Poverty Apparently Gone
Again there was an obvious poverty
three years ago. Clothes were old and
frayed, boots shabby and many with
paper soles. There were more beggars
in the streets. Today the paper sole
has gone into the discard and the peo
ple are better dressed.'
But the most noticeable change for
the better has been in the appearance
of the children. You cannot see a
single child who looks undersized for
age, or underfed, whereas it was not
uncommon three years ago to observe
both undersize and underfeeding.
Vienna Now Wide Open.
Two million crowns, about thirty
dollars, will support a family of three
for a month, barring rent, which is of
no consequence, and luxuries, such as
theatres and other amusements. This,
notwithstanding the high prices of
nearly all commodities.
The best restaurants charge heavily
and some of the hotels are robber’s *
roosts, but there are plenty of places
where poor people can get good tables
for anywhere from five to twelve
thousand crowns.
The old night time rules have been
relaxed and Vienna, generally speak
i ing, is now wide open, until two or
three in the morning. But the night
life is not so wild as in Berlin.
