one about the exploits of Constantine

Even to those who could not under

FRENCH SCIENTISTS GET BUSY
Already Planning to Help Recovery
After the War,
e Of the Associated Pres.

Correspondence Of the Associated Press.
PARIS. July 30.-Although French
scientists have done a good deal to
help the government match up with
Germany in the scientific departments
of her military preparation there is still
complaint that their services have not
been utilized to the best advantage, and
the Academy Of Sciences now poses a
question as to whether men of techni-
cal training shall not have a greater
share In the formidable work of re-
organizing France after the war.
Henry le Chatelier of the institute
proposes that the academy go to work
at once to formulate the working
methods best calculated to accelerate
the industrial and economic recovery of
the country, without waiting for poll
ticians to decide whether the services
Of technical and scientific men will be
accepted.
