of food and other articles prevailing
in Germany as a result OF the war, In
Esch, which was entered by detach-

10 to ~ francs. But there was little
to be had even at that price. what
chocolate that was available had been
held owe from prewar days or was
brought into the country by way or
Switzerland.
Coffee in Esch retails at 30 francs
a pound. It reached Luxembourg by
way of Switzerland. Eggs were selling
at about a franc each, owing to he
demand for them among the German
officers. The Americans had bought
all the eggs in the Esch stores within
an hour after their arrival,
franc a glass. Meat, bread and other
necessities were high in price, but not
in proportion to luxuries, necessities
having been regulated so far as price
was concerned.
The shop windows are filled with
clothing Of all sorts and with millinery
and mems hats--in fact, everything
that is placed on show in an culinary

In automobile and bicycle salesrooms
machines were displayed, but owing to
the scarcity of rubber the automobile
wheels were equipped will spring tires,

idea of the man at the helm of a ship
leaving the vessel to steer itself at so
critical a period. All this, however,
was debated before Mr.. Wilson made
up his mind to go n the viewpoint
of those who regret his decision is not
altered with respect to the necessity
for providing machinery to care for the
public business while the president is
away.
There is a deeply rooted anxiety lest
inadequate provision be made for the
smooth running of the executive power
during Mr.. Wilson's stay in Europe;
Fortunately, the war industries board
and other agencies are available SHOULD
the president decide to leave to exist
ing organizations inside the govern
,ment the fullest power 20 deal with the
situations as they arise, this would
mean a virtual delegation of power to
various branches of the government and
would not meet with much opposition
provided it is explicit, What business
men want is a removal of uncertainty,
the thing that makes for panics and
economic disturbances.
On a larger scale, the same sort
of apprehension that international poll
tics will keep domestic affairs in every
country disturbed until the peace treaty
is signed, is bound to result in move
ment for the early formulation Of one
peace treaty based Upon the essentials,
and a second set of conventions relat-
ing to details. Paris dispatches today
make that suggestion and it CORE
spends with the general feeling thar
has prevailed here. The economic re-
construction of the world, it is pointed
out, cannot be permitted to wait until
the last phrase has been defined or the
last ~" has been dotted or 1T"
crossed.
Business everywhere will want to
get going again. So it has been sup
posed in many quarters here that the
fundamentals of a peace treaty, en-
larging on the famous IA terms, would
be signed by the parties to this war,
and that the league of nations would
be created or provided for by the first
bound up in the settlement affect coun-
tries which nave been neutral in this
war, and under a league of nations
structure opportunity would be given
for a conspiracy Of their respective
equities,

on a single treaty, a prolonged absence
by the president, and a failure to deal
promptly with reconstruction, are at
the bottom of much of the discomfort

cabinet are understood toe have dis
Cussed many Of the broad features Of
the situation, but, with the exception
of the designation Of certain cabinet
members formulate recommendations,
something which has not been official
ly announced, very little has been ac-
Complished. Secretary Tumulty has
been absent for a week at the bedside
of his father, who died last night. Cab
met officers of the government are
working in feverish haste to complete
their annual reports.
There never was a time when so
little was known throughout Washing
