...there has been a swarm of soothsayers laying down the law, but rarely have their tables of stone weathered the drizzle of a single generation. Of the modestly minor interpreters of the modern U. S., Lewis Mumford has one of the most respectful followings. No Jeremiah, no hard-shell Marxian, with no patent axe to grind, he goes at the complex mass of modern civilization with all five senses. Technics and Civilization, scholarly, ambitious, big (495 pp.), does not attempt to be a Bible for any creed, but it may well prove to be a milestone in the circuitous study...
...publicized Russian nationalism which is afraid to jeopardize its economic arrangements with foreign countries by "meddling" in their internal affairs; the other is the Bolshevik scorn of the Viennese Social Democrats, antipathy which long outdates the present series of that party's collapses. Bound by the toils of the Marxian dialectic, the Stalinites could not consistently admit the presence in Austria of a revolutionary movement.

The clerics have waged a long and bitter fight against the steady rise of Marxism, with especial success among the doltish peasantry. As was pointed out by me last week, the Marxian socialist party, long Austria's most powerful party, is now practically dead. The man who did this was Engelbert Dollfuss, the party who made him was the Christian Socialist Party. This was publicly symbolized in the great "Catholic Day" held last summer, at which Dr. Dollfuss was openly honored...
