Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox officeholder Gustav Schädler (18 November 1883 – 19 June 1961) was a teacher and politician from Liechtenstein who served as Prime Minister of Liechtenstein from 1922 to 1928.

Early life and career

Schädler was born on 18 November 1883 in Triesenberg, Liechtenstein as one of four children. He attended a teachers college in Bad Saulgau, Germany. From 1906 to 1912 he participated in a teacher training course in linguistics and history in Zürich. He particularly focused on lectures regarding the First World War, and visited France and Italy during the war.[1][2][3]

Prime Minister of Liechtenstein

Schädler served as Prime Minister of Liechtenstein from 6 June 1922 to 28 June 1928.[4] He was a member of the Christian-Social People's Party, and is the only member of the VP to have served as a Prime Minister after winning the 1922 Liechtenstein general election.[5][6][7] His government was responsible for creating a monetary union with Switzerland in 1924.[8] It also oversaw the passing of a tax law referendum in 1922.[9]

His government was the subject of an embezzlement scandal involving the National Bank of Liechtenstein in 1928. Johann II forced his government to resign in June 1928 as a result, and early elections were called.[10] Schädler was not barred from re-election, but lost the 1928 Liechtenstein general election and was succeeded by Josef Hoop.[11]

Later life

From 1928 to 1945 he worked as a teacher at the state school in Vaduz.[1]

In 1931, a indictment was conducted against Schädler in the State Court of Justice for violating supervisory and official duties in the administration of the savings bank.[12] However, he was acquitted, partly because the statute of limitations had expired and partly because the breach of duty was not due to gross negligence.[1]

Between 1943 and 1944 Schädler worked with Patriotic Union leader Otto Schaedler as an editor of the Liechtensteiner Vaterland.[13] He had written a series of articles about Switzerland for the authorities of Nazi Germany during the Second World War, supposedly for the German press, but in reality it was used by intelligence agencies such as the Verein für Deutsche Kulturbeziehungen im Ausland. In 1946 he was sentenced to six months in prison due to illegal intelligence providence, but did not serve the sentence due to health reasons.[1]
