But by the 1960s Austra was also participating in the German Economic Miracle. Austria at first lagged behind Germany, primarily becuse the Soviet Union occupied half the country. The Soviets withdrew after agreement was reached on Austrian neutrality (1955). Some of the children wear Tracht outfits, the girls in particular. Many of the girls wear dirndls. Some of the boys wear haltars like the ones worn with Lederhosen, but we can not tell if they are wearing Lederhosen.
