GERMAN INDUSTRY IS SMASHED SAYS
 BERLIN SAVANT
pr. Lederer Describes Economic
 Situation As Having Met with
 Complete Breakdown, Calling Attention To Reconstruction

COPENHAGEN, Sept i-.-Ine Der lin Vossische Zeitung discusses the extent to which German industry al- ready has been hit by the war Dr. Emil Lederer, the writer, says that the removal of all men capable Q bearing arms has smashed industry to atoms" All links uniting various trades have been broken The crisis with regard to money and credit which occurred in the first instance was accentuated by the necessity Of financing the war by a single stroke. The attempts made to meet the crisis by liQuidating assets only made mat ters worse The unfortunate thing he says, is that this liquidation, which is customary at all crises. does not in the present instance affect merely small body of spectators, but eX- presses the face that German industry and its production are on a fictitious basis.
 Complete transformation, Dr. Led erer says. is necessary in order to cope with the new conditions brought  about by the war At present there is little sign of this. We see the ap- parent paradox says Dr. Lederer that in spite of increasing absorption for military purposes of men capable of working there is an increase Of un- employment among those that remain behind. Even the much sought after labor of women cannot find employ ment. Day after day undertakings shut down or their output is dimin- ished. Those. indeed, which continue at work are working with aimless overpressure because of uncertainty. SO the net output is dimished
 What, asks Dr. Lederer, are the de- cisive economic facts? Does the com

plete breakup of industry which threatens Germany involve a dis ruption also of agriculture and the supply of necessities. The war means for Germany first, the prevention of exports, especially articles of luxury; secondly, prevention of imports of means Subsistence, especially raw materials such as cotton and copper; thordly. reduction of demand of all at the front and restriction of demand of those remaining at home. There no longer is any demand for articles of luxury.
 Against these facts, which appar- ently involve the gloomiest possible outlook for the near future, Dr. Led. erer says, must be set others equally decisive Germany has had a re- markedly good harvest. SO on the whole the purchasing power of the agricultural Industry is relatively big The same thing applies to industries which supply the needs of the army and other public purposes. The prob lem is Go use this purchasing power in such way as To revive all those branches which supply the needs of the aforementioned industries. The question is how to build around the sound kernel lt will require fore sight and perhaps great expenditures for forces which could bring about this reorganization automatically do not exist It must be remembered. Dr. Lederer says, first, that the amount of available labor is considerably re- duced' secondly, ayailable raw ma terials probably win be sufficient for a long time thirdly. the needs of private industry have during the war undergone considerable diminution and change These facts must first be orcognized.

rades is SO splendid that With their new strength they will be equal to that formidable attack
 Nothing certainly is being left to chance. For miles all around Paris trenches are being dug in the roads, and little sectional trenches on the broad roads of France. first one on this side of the way, and then one on the other side, so that a motor car travelling along the road has to drive in a series Of sharp curves to avoid pitfalls.
 There was feverish activity on the west side of the Paris Qualifications when l passed between st. Germain and St. Dennis.
 Earthworks are being constantly thrown up between the forts, and the triple curves of the Seine are being intrenched SO that thousands of men may take cover there and form a ter rife defense against any attack.
 Gen Gallieni, the military governor of Paris, is a man of energy and iron resolution, and no doubt under his command, Paris, if it has to undergo a seige (which God avertl) will de- fend itself well, now that it has had these precious days of respite.
 After wandering along the westerly and southerly roads, started for Paris when thousands and scores of thousands were flying from it. At that time l believed, as all France be- lieved. that in a few hours German shells would be crashing across the Qualifications of the city and that Paris the beautiful would be Paris the internal. It needed a good usal of resolution on my part to go deliber- ately to a city from which the pOpu- lation was fleeing, and I confess quite honestly that I had a nasty sensation in the neighborhOOd of my waistcoat buttons at the thought
 Along the road from Tours to Paris there were sixty unbroken miles of people-on my honor, l do not exag- gerate but write the absolute truth. They were all people who had de- spaired of breaking through the dense masses of their fellow citizens camp ed around the railway stations and had decided to take to the roads as the only way of escape.
 Here were women of the gay world poor creatures whose painted faces had been washed with tears, and whose tight skirts and white stockings were never made for a long march down the highways of France. Here also were thousands of those poor, old ladies who live on few francs a week in the top attic of the l Paris streets, which Balsac knew: they had fled from their poor sanctu- , aries and some of them were still car rying cats and canaries. as dear to them as their own lives. There, one young woman who walk ed with a pet monkey on her shoulder while she carried a bird in a golden cage. Old men, who remembered lS7O gave their arms to old ladies to whom they had made love when the Prussians were at the gates of Paris then.
 It was pitiful to see these old people now hobbling along together. Piuful but beautiful, also. because of the last ing love.

ST. PIERRE DU VOURAY, Sept 12.- England received a hint yester- day as to a change in the German cam paign, but only those who have bcen, as ] have. into the very heart of this monstrous horror of war, seeing the fight of hundreds of thousands of peo pie before an overwhelming enemy and following the lines of the Allied armies in their steady retirement be- fore an apparently irrisistable ad. vance, may realize. even dimly, the meaning of the amazing transforms tion that has happened during the last few days.
