Otto Lecher (1 June 1861 - 16 February 1939)〔( Dr. Otto Lecher ) Parliament of Austria〕 was an Austrian politician. He was born in Brunn, Bohemia. He earned a doctorate of law, and became President of the Board of Trade in Brunn.〔(Mark Twain, "Stirring Times in Austria" )〕 He was also Secretary of the Brunn Chamber of Trade and Industry.〔 He was elected to the ''Abgeordnetenhaus'' ("House of Delegates") of the ''Reichsrat'' ("Imperial Council") from Brunn, and served for many years. He is perhaps best remembered for a 12-hour speech he gave on 28 October 1897: a "filibuster" to block action on the "''Ausgleich''" with Hungary, which was due for renewal.〔 Mark Twain was present, and described the speech, and the political circumstances which led to it, in his essay "Stirring Times in Austria". At the end of World War I, Lecher was a Member of the Provisional ''Nationalversammlung'' ("National Assembly") which established the Republic of Austria, serving from 21 October 1918 to 16 February 1919.〔 Lecher died in Vienna on 16 February 1939.〔 ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Otto Lecher」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
