VITAL GROWTH OF GERMANY
Increase Of Population, as Of Wealth.
Must Be Most Gratifying to the
Country.

An important work ON the progress
of Germany and its social development
during the last fifty years has just
been published by DIR. Helfferich. the
director OF the German bank. The
most satisfactory feature in this rec
ord is the increase in Germany's popu-
lation. In 1916 Germany had $4,000. 900
inhabitants: in isss $4,000, 200, and in
1879. 66,0o0,0oo. II is true that the
percentage OF births has fallen from
4o.7 per 1000 TO 29.5. In spite OF this
fall the proportional yearly increase
in Germany is larger than In any other
European country. Russia included.
and is nearly . per cent more than in
Great Britain. although the death-rate

in Germany is still higher than in

the German population is progressive
In the period 1SS1-90 this increase
Amounted to 81 millions; in 1S9l-l906
10 7.S millions. and in the next ten
years to s 2-S millions. This was part

as well as to the, rapid decline in the
deathrate. 1t is estimated that in 1880
Germany will have nearly one hundred
million people. In these circum,
stances 1t is not surprising that the

WRECK SURVIVOR
TELLS OF HORRORS
Jerseyman, Sailor on Great
Lakes Ship Lost in Storm,
Describes Tragedy.

DUNDEE LAKE, Dec Henry
Rascle, who arrived at his home here
yesterday, tells a thrilling account of
privations and suffering endured
while employed as a seaman on the
lake steamer John J. Barlum, which
was wrecked during q heavy storm
which swept the Great Lakes on
Nov. %. Rascie shipped as a porter
on the steamer early in the season,
but states that he was frequently
called upon to do lookout duty" and
he was so engaged on the eventful
night that the steamer met disaster.
After striking a rock head-on the
seas literally smashed the vessel to
pieces bit by bit. The waves, which
reached a mountainous height, soon
found their way to the ships boilers,
which exploded with roar which
Henry says he will never forget.
The survivors, without food, heat or
light, huddled together in the chart
house, on account of the severity of
the storm could not venture outside
to raise the warning light until four
teen hours after the accident.
When asked as to his sensations
during these moments, tears stream
ed down Rascle's cheeks at the recol-
lection and he said they were simply
indescribable. 'f2ot a word was
spoken for hours at O. time; every
soul on board seemed to be In deep
thought; every one Of us lived an
age from the time of the accident
until the rescue, just twenty-four
hours later" he said. Strong men
would gaze from the windows on the
opposite side from which the storm
was raging, and turn away weeping
as children"

Admiral Dewey Recommends
Four Battleships at Once

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.-The views
of Admiral George Dewey on the
naval plan that the United States
should adopt were sent to President
Wilson with the report of Secretary
Daniels, and embodied the recommen-
dations of the Navy General Board.
The fleet should consist of forty
eight battleships of the first line be-
fore 1920, in the opinion of the ad-
miral, and the building program
should begin this year with four
dreadnoughts, sixteen destroyers,
eight submarines and minor craft.
Admiral Dewey's report continues:
1.-THE absence of any definite naval
policy on our part, except in the
General Board, and the failure Of the
people, the Congress and the execu-
tive government to recognize the
necessity for such a policy has
already placed us in a position Of in
feriority, which may lead to war; and
this inferiority is progressive, and
will continue to increase until the
necessity for a definite policy is
recognized and that policy put into
operation"
