GERMANY LOOKS
TO i. s. FOR AID
AT WARS CLOSE
Hopes For Loan and Industrial
Cooperation With Com
ing of Peace

Amsterdam, via London, April 9. -
Three questions in regard to America 5
entrance into the war have been put
to leading German manufacturers by
the Rheinische westfalische Gazette of
Essen, an important Industrial organ.
The paper asks: First. whether unre-
stricted submarine warfare has been
bought too dearly at the price of war
with America; second, what will be the
economic consequences; third, is it pos
sible to make Germany economically
independent of America? Councillor
DR.. Beukenberg. of Dortmund, answere
the first question in the negative. DR..
Beukenberg says:
"our early reluctance to use our SUBJ
marines was due to the most far
reaching offense to America, with
above all enjoyed important CONNER
cial relations. America never tried to
help us in our distress. caused by Eng
lands starvation blockade. Our yield
ing to Americas demands was not
caused by fear of her military re-
sources but with a view to rebuilding
our foreign trade after the war.
Believes Wilson Biased
President Wilson's biased Judgment
of the German peace proposals showed
that America does not want German
victory and prefers to aid British arms
in the dismemberment of Germany and
Austria We were thus com.
PEELED to resume unrestricted subma-
rine warfare in order to force a vic.
torious conclusion to the war. Consid-
GRAFTON of future developments of ou1
trade must wait while danger exists
of our losing the fruits of victory"
In regard to the second question, DR.
Beukenberg, after pointing out in de.
tail that American exports to Germany
were two and a half times bigger than
German exports to America says after
the war America will not want to cut
off her German customer. 1t would
harm us grievously if America were to
refuse to us later a large loan to help
us over our difficulties.
After calling attention to the huge
increase in Americas financial strength
DR.. Beukenberg says, in answer to the
third question::
Need u. &. Products
Germany cannot become wholly in
dependent. In the case of cotton, for
instance, under the most favorable cir
cumstances it would take decades to
meet our needs from our colonies OF
Asia Minor. To a certain extent we
can be Independent if we live sparingly
and use all our available substitutes
but large part of German imports
are raw materials which are exported
as manufactured goods. Thus increases
in the difficulties of importing would
hit us badly. This, however, applies
equally to the United States. Ameri-
cans do not grow cotton for nothing
and they will welcome their old GUS
toner back again.
After all, the submarine war spells
victory, and IL we are to dictate peace
adequate guarantees may be negotiat-
ed. Now that America is an open en-
emy we no longer have our hands tied
and there is no longer the fear that
we might have to make an undignified
peace through exhaustion. The slogan
is now victory or death with honor"

HARDSCRABBLE
CASES MAY BE
SETTLED SOON
City Solicitor Fox May Ask
Special Session of Court
to Try Appeals

City Solicitor John E. Fox may ask
the Dauphin county court to set a
date, probably for early in the fall,
for a special session to hear all evil
dence in the appeals of property own
ers in the Hardscrabble district, who
claim the awards in the viewers re-
port are insufficient.
Application was made to the court
this morning to have isues awarded in
all the appealed cases, which total
more than twenty, so that they can be
by attorneys for the property holders,
who contended the city had filed no
bond as required by law, with the re-
suit that their clients had no pro-
lection against further damages which
might accrue.
City Solicitor Fox, while he admit
ted the law makes it mandatory on
municipalities to file bond, declared
no time is set and that this can easily
be done just before taking over the
properties.
Safest Way For City
lie consented however, to meet this
requirement, after President Judge
George Kunkel advised from the
bench that the safest way for the city
to proceed, would be to adhere
strictly to the law.
Senator e. e. Beidleman, represent
ing some of the appellants, agreed at
once to accept the city's own bond ana
not put an added expense on the NUM-
cipality by requiring security through
an outside bonding company. Later
other counsel agreed. to this also.
City Solicitor Fox will make arrange
ments at once, he said, to determine
the amount of the bond, file it, and
then ask the court to award the issues.
Solicitor Fox in speaking of a prob
able request for a special hearing of
the cases, declared he was anxious to
have the claims settled so that the
city could proceed. BY having the
cases set down for trial in regular or
der they might not be reached for
years. he pointed out
