In tonight's talk Sir Arthur Salter is to discuss the old Austro-Hungarian Empire as a balanced economic system ; conditions in the five countries at the Armistice ; relief measures, the position in Austria and Hungary; revolution and famine ; and what was done, and how it was done to help these countries, and Czechoslovakia, Yugoslavia and Roumania, to get on their feet again.
The work of the League ; the set-backs ; the world depression ; the present position, and the prospects ahead-all will be dealt with by Sir Arthur. He is a Member of the Economic Advisory Council, and was formerly Director of the Economic and Financial Section of the League of Nations.
