"The Austrian republic was founded as a state with various autonomous provinces of which Vienna became a very important one," said Dr. Kraus. "In the mind of the Austrian, Vienna stands for organized labor; the rest of Austria for the peasants and burghers. The city is identified with its doctrinaire leaders, while the peasant of the country is used to looking to the Church for leadership. Consequently it has become...
