BRITISH AND LAPS IN ORIENT
 UNFRIENDLY TO AMERICANS

Picking, March 30 0-(Correspondence of fish newspapers in the Orient are paying much attention to the efforts of Ameri- cans to extend their trade in the far east and undertake big development plants. Since the incorporation of the American International corporation a campaign of criticism has been launched and the un- friendliness of British and Japanese in terests toward American activities in the Orient is disclosed in the news columns as we'll as in contributed letters and edi- torials which are appearing in newspa- pers in Japan as well as in the treaty ports of China.
 American business extension is dis cussed as a peril to Japanese and Eng fish interests in China. Especial appre- hension seems to exist among the Brit ish as to what American concerns may do in the Yang-tse valley. Japan also re- gards that valley, which is the very heart of China, as in it's sphere of influence and is battling to keep Americans from getting a foothold there.
 The English press in China has paid much attention to prospective improve ments in the city of Hankow, which is called the Chicago of China, and lies at the head of deep water navigation on the Yang-tse. An English concern, Sam uels & Co.,, Ltd. obtained a concession for installing an electric light plant and other municipal improvements in Han kow Because of the unsettled financial market in England the company has been unable to raise money for it's un- dertakings. However, the offer of Amer

TRANSFORMATION OF
 PARIS IS PROGRESSING

Paris, March -(Special)-The trans formation of old Paris is not to be ar rested by war. The President of the re- public has just decreed the widening or the Rue Valois and the Rue Croix des Fetits Champs in the First Arrondis- sement. to give more air to the Bank or France.
 Part of the old Rue des Bons Enfants and all of the Rue Baillif will disappear under this decree to give room for the extension of the bank. A new street Will unite the Rue Valois and the Rue Croix des Petits Champs beginning in the Rue du Louvre, at the Bourse de Commerce and running to the east arcades or the Palais Royal. to give a better outlet to inc circulation from the central markets toward the Place de iOpera.
 The cutting of the new street at that point involves the disappearance or the Cbancellory of Orleans. an important s srtistic and historic relic of old Paris, but the contract with the Bank Of France reouires the reconstruction in the facade of it's new extension of all the parts of the old structure that have historical or artistic interest

, jeans to undertake the financing of the improvements has been denounced hotly in the English press as an attempt to undermine British interests It has been hinted that such action on the part of Americans show the unfriendliness of the United States toward England. English men who are associated with the Ameri- can interests which stand ready to pro- vide money for the Hankow improvements have been declared disloyal to their na- tive land
 Chinese newspapers received with much enthusiasm the news that the American
 International corporation will enter the
 ba hiking field in China and finance com mercial and industrial development. But the newspapers under European or Jap- anese direction in Chinese cities were either silent, or criticized adversely the plans of the new American company. In many papers discussion of American busi- ness extension was linked up with Amer ican plans for large army and navy, and the possible position of the United States on the Pacific in future years is eagerly commented upon

fact gave an official character to his presence. The ice once broken, there was no hesitation on the part of Presi- dent Poincare few days later in send ing a representative to the synagogue in the Rue de Provence to attend a re- ligious service for the Israelites fallen on the field of battle on the different fronts. These two incidents were immediately followed by the meeting of the premier, Monsieur Aristide Briand, and Cardinal Mercer at Rome. A few years ago any one of these incidents would have been sufficient to have caused the downfall of the government Today they occasion little surprise and only limited comment. They have given rise to the question as to whether Monsieur Briand's famous doctrine of paclfication between the cler- icals and anti-clericals will not prevail after the war.

 BILKED BY TRADERS
 There is another side to the good-na- tured acceptance of war conditions by the British public, and that is that many unscrupulous traders are making good thing out of it. It is true, of course, that prices of nearly all commodities nave been legitimately increased by the war conditions, but on top of the legitimate war increases, the retail trader nearly always puts on a bit for extra pront and sometimes he puts the bit on goous that have not been affected by the war. To the householder the formula, we must pay more on account of the war and. of course, we must charge you more," seems to cover everything, ana It is accepted without question. Even the grocers war profits do not seem to cause the Briton to grumble in war time.
