The League of Nations took over the problem of Austrian reconstruction, following the earnest appeal of the chancellor. An international loan, under guaranty of the League, was accorded and a League commissioner appointed to supervise Austrian finance. Outside pressure forced the government to cut expenditures: about 85,000 civil servants were fired or pensioned, taxes were raised, and social service benefits were curtailed. | 2 |
