What is this Neck Order he's wearing, and the others on the chest look military right.

The neck order is for the Commander, Order of Merit of Austria and was awarded from 1924-1938. The first medal on the chest looks like an Austrian Silver Cross of Merit. Can't see the last one well enough.

On the chest from left to right first looks like the Military Merit Cross and the second like the Signum Laudis. Strange he is not wearing the Maria-Theresia Order as he earned it and its the most prestigious that Austria had.
