these trenches were occupied by large forces of soldiers and the fighting was the hearst possible approach to actual warfare on the fields of France After the detailed scenes were staged, the secens showing the destruction of the village were enac- tied with great realism. While Ger man" howitzers belched forth, the vil- lase was razed to the ground by gun fire, and the smoking ruins brought home an idea of the devastation of villages in war stricken France.

Listen to these figures and keep
them in your head. They are
vouched for by M. Millerand, who
was Minister of War during the
first year of hostilities:
"The Battle of the Marne emptied
our storehouses.
''On the 18th of September, 1914,
the Minister Of War, who had then
been scarcely three weeks in office,
was informed that munitions threat
ened to fail our artillery, and that
it was necessary without delay to
bring to the front 100000 shells
per day instead of $500 for the
rs guns. This was merely a be-
ginning. Three days later, on the
Goth of September, the Minister as
sembled at Bordeaux the represent
tatjves Of the munitions industry
and divided them up into regional
groups. At the head Of each one he

structed in the month of July.
407 in the month of January, 1916.
For this construction, as for all the
others, once a start was made there
was no stopping it.
"All orders for heavy guns had
been countermanded at the begin
ming Of August, 1914. They were
resumed in the month Of September,
1914. Seventy-hve per cent Of the
orders for heavy guns, on which we
got along until April, 1917, had
been given out between September,
1914. and the 31st of October, 1916.
In the first seven months of the
war, from September, 1914, to
April, 1915, there were constructed
$50 pieces Of heavy artillery On
August /, 1914, we had only sixty
eight batteries. A year later to
the day, on the LIST of August, 1915,
we had 272 batteries of heavy ar
tillery"
Now consider these figures, given
out by M. Andre Tardicu, High
Commissioner of the French Repub
lie at Washington, in a letter to
the Hon. Newton D. Baker, Secre-
tary Of War;
''ir the matter of heavy artillery.
in August, 1914, we had only 800
guns distributed among the various
regiments. In June, 1917, we had

A nation that is worn out and

ment of NJ. Georges Pallain, gov
ernor of the Bank of France, rep
resentlng the accounting of the
counsel genera ~of the bank for
1917:
From the industrial and COM
mercial point of view satisfactory
amelloration is noticeable. The in
vestigation of the Minister of In

ment that the percentage of facto

ern. During our spring offensive
in 1917 we had, roughly, one heavy
gun for every twenty-siX metres of
front. If we had brought together
all our heavy artillery and all our
trench artillery we would have had
one gun for every eight metres in
the battle sectors.
"In August, 1914, we were maxi
ing 1900 shells for the .75s per
day; now we are making 100000

Supply of Coal
Less Than Demand

An indication of the develop
ment of industrial activity is fur
nished by the continued increase of
the demand for coal.
Corporations for mining ore have
been pushed with vigor. Coal pro-
duction increased greatly in 1914.
On the whole, it still remains less
than it was before the war, since
the invasion has deprived us of the
valleys in the north and the richest
portion of Pas-de-C Calais: but in the
regions where mining is still pos
sible the production exceeds Nv
about 40 per cent the figures for
1913.
"This remarkable increase has
compensated to q certain extent for
the falling off in the importations
of coal from England; nevertheless
it leaves our supply of coal less than
our demand for it.
ITO remedy this insufficiency, and
at the same time to give Our ma
tional industry greater independ-
ence, researches and experiments
have been equally intensified with
a view to employing our hydraulic
resources. In the Alps, in the Py-
renees and in the Central Massif
new installations are under way, and
they have already attracted impor-
tant metallurgic and chemical
plants
"The development of industrial
production has had the result of an
increase in the volume Of CONNER
cial transactions These continue
to look after themselves, and, for
the most part, they are on cash
basis. The gradual resumption of
credit operations which former
years signalized is still on the in
crease. In 1917 the receipts from
commerce were 81 per cent greater
than in 1916. There is notable
pro gression of discounts. while the
total of our delayed payments has
been brought back to LAO, 100000"
A nation that is worn out and
bled white has no colonies, or if she
has, these same colonies are like
wise bloodless and worn out. The
French colonial empire remains in
tact, while the German colonial en-
pire has disappeared from the face
of the earth A nation that is worn
out and bled white has passed the
stage where it can come to- the aid
of others. In her death agony she
has no more than her own strength
to last her during the last hours.
France has been able to come to the
aid Of the other Allies. She has
lent them strong, helping hand;
she has been able to save them from
total extinction. French troops
have fought and are still fighting
OF all the battlefronts; in Italy, the
Balkans. Palestine and Central
Africa. 1t is almost to France alone
and to France especially that the
salvage of the remnant Of the Ser
bian army has been due.
All this shows that the men are
wrong who believe France is with
out strength and resources. Be
meath her torn garments, under flesh
that is cruelty bruised. there beats
: a virile heart which fights on and
on And there is young red blood
which still flows and is always ready
to flow for the immortal principles
of liberty. justice and humanity

The Money Raised
By French Loans

Thus, in spite of the war, her in
vaded territoTi ies and her modified
citizens, France has in three years
raised three national loans of al
most 1900, 100000 francs in hard
cash. That is three times the
amount of the war indemnity she
paid Prussia in 1871.
A nation worn out and bled white
has no more monetary reserve, no
more funds in its treasury and has
been brought into bankruptcy. The
Bank of France, which is probably
the leading national bank in the
world, whose credit has never weak
ened in the gravest hours of the
nations history, declared on the 1st
of January, 1918, a gold reserve Of
5,348,OOO, 900 in francs, an increase
Of 100000 over the gold in
hand on January /. 1917. This is
the greatest deposit the bank has
ever had. All this came from the
national resources; the weekly pay
ments are still 100000 francs,
which are paid without compulsion
and without processes.

the American army-amountlng to
several hundred guns per month.
A nation that is worn out and
bled white has an empty treasury
and is no longer able to obtain taxes
from it's ruined citizens. Let us
consider what France has done in
& financial way in this war.
From the 1st Of August, 1914,
to the LIST of January, 1918, the
French Parliament voted war credits
amo uniting to 2O,0O0,0O0,OOO. Of
this enormous fund only two billions
have been borrowed from out
side sources; all the remainder has
been subscribed or paid for by tax
alton or by loans in France itself
More than a billion dollars has been
loaned to her allies by France.
On 1917 France had the heaviest
budget in all her history. The sin
gle item of taxes was raised to
100000 francs ($1,200, 0,000), and
these taxes were paid to the penny,
although 100000 Frenchmen
were modified in the army, in the
factories and on the farms, or were
untaxable in The occupied regions.
In 1915. 1916 and 1917 France
raised three great national loans.
That of 1915 amounted to exactly
13,307,S11,579 francs 40 centimes,
of which COLT, 100000 was paid
in hard cash. That of October,
1916, amounted in round numbers
to 10000 100000 francs, of which
more than 5,OoO,o00,000 was paid
in hard cash. That of December.
1917, amounted to 10,629, 10000
francs. of which 5,254 100000 was
paid in cash.
