Aufsichtsrat, Mr. Keppler, as likewise the chairman of the Vorstand,
Dr. Voss, have told me, that they would be particularly glad to take over such
a trusteeship, because they had established the Vienna branch for precisely
this kind of activity. Claus sent a wire from here to Mr. Olscher and yourself
early today.
It is indeed very unfortunate that you have not yet fully
recuperated, but it is understandable in view of what has occurred. I hope that
you, too, are now having the good weather which we have enjoyed in the last few
days and which will surely contribute to your recovery. My wife and I are
getting along very well here, even though the baths are always somewhat trying.
Foolishly enough I, too, have had to go to the dentist for a slight
inflammation.
Best regards to your wife and greetings to yourself from
my wife and me. |

Many thanks for your kind letter dated
19th instant. In connection with the Berndorf matter I should like to inform
you today about a confidential report passed on to me recently by Mr. Dr.
Schaeffer of the Reichs - Kredit - Gesellschaft. According to this, the entire
Austrian negotiations are rendered more difficult at present by the fact that
the Austrians, and especially the Viennese, are said to be annoyed about the
domineering or managing attitude adopted by Berlin or the old Reich, and that
they, On their part, were adopting a reserved and even negative attitude with
regard to many questions, specially pertaining to business and economy, as a
result of this vexation. The slogan “Austria for the Austrians,” or
differently expressed “More inde- -…[pendence] |
