Washington, Oct. 25-More than
threefourths of the worlds population
lives in the eighteen countries at war
with Germany or her allies, accord
ing TO compilations from government
sources.
The persons living in the central
countries are outnumbered more than
sever times by anti-Germa popu-
ations. and the proportion is swelled
even higher if consideration is taken
Of the populations of the ten coun-
tries which have broken relations with
the Central Powers. Germanys en-
emies now include nearly all the white
and yellow races. and the physical re-
sources Of about half the worlds area
ere modified against the force. IT
Germany. Austria Hungary, Bulgaria
and Turkey.
For these reasons, observers here
are watching intently the play OF in
fluenoes within the few remaining neu-
trails. including Spain. Netherlands.
Sweden. Norway. Denmark, Switzer-
land. and in America, Argentina Ven
ezuela, Paraguay, Colombia. Ecua dor,
Salvador and Mexico
Similarly. unusual interest is felt
here in the future course Of the nations
which have broken relations with
Germany or her allies. These are
Brazil, Bolivia. Costa Rica, Guatema-
la. Haiti, Honduras, Nicaragua, Peru,
Uruguay and San Domingo.

NATIONAL CLOTH"
BY FRENCH MILLS

Paris, Sept. 2s.-(MaiD. Two and a half
million yards of national cloth" are to
be woven without profit by the leading
wooden mills of France and sold exclu-
some sort from the state. Three different
kinds Of cloth will be made in the proper
tons Of $50 for mems clothing 2s9s for
wonnen's cloaks and $50 for ch!ldren's
garments. The wool will be OF wool and
the warp of cotton.
Daily Kennebec journal. [microfilm reel] (Augusta, Me.) 1870-1975, 1917-10-26

A proposition for the weaving Of a uni
form national cloth" for all classes Of
consumers was abandoned as being I'M
necessary and because the weavers de-
manded the opportunity to sell part of
ltheir product at a normal profit, since a
considerable part OF their output will be
supplied at no profit at all. Clothing will
accordingly be higher for those who can
pay and cheaper for those for whom the
state pays.
