The Czechoslovak Review/Volume 4/Number 2/Miscellaneous

​Comparison between Czechoslovakia and Poland is striking. Czechoslovaks start out with a public debt of 15 billion crowns, Poles with 150 billion; per capita indebtedness is 1000 and 5000 crowns respectively. The Czechoslovak Republic has a deficiency for 1919 of five billion crowns, Poland of 30 billion; one hundred Czechoslovak crowns costs now $1.80, one hundred Polish marks $1.00. A kilogram of white flour costs in Bohemia 1.70 K, in Poland from 10 to 20 K; a suit clothes in Prague costs from 400 to 800 K, in Warsaw 2000.

Several important publications have recently published articles about Czechoslovaks, all very complimentary; thus the Country Gentleman, the Etude and the Yale Review.
