The Czechoslovak Review/Volume 3/A member of Czechoslovak parliament receives 12.000 crowns yearly

A member of Czechoslovak parliament receives 12.000 crowns yearly which previous to the war would have equaled $2400. At the present rate of exchange it amounts to $600. The head of the press bureau is paid 1200 crowns monthly and his assistants get 700 crowns. The salary of the ordinary government clerk does not compare favorably with the wages earned by street-cleaners und unskilled laborers. These men, therefore, do not work for anv monetary reward, but for what they call “idealismus.”
