The account of an eyewitness of the

received by Mrs. H. E. Willis. Con-

caused tremble throughout the great
population. but when the morning
came when at the hour of IL hostili-

their feeling no longer, but went into
expressions of joy, such as shaking
hands, kissing one another and dane

were many around Paris and were

into pitch of defiance and triumph.
The bells of Notre Dame, that Won

been silent throughout the war,
seemed to break forth into an a1leluia
of praise and defamation to the peo-

their beloved ones and that peace
would reign once more in the land of
those who loved and guarded liberty.
And in the midst of all this rejoicing
the allies were not forgotten, especial

MANAGER PIEZ REPORTS
SCOPE OF FLEETS WORK
Responds to Senate's Resolution
Calling for Information on
Construction.

Responding to a Senate resolution,
General Manager Piez of the Emer-
gency Fleet Corporation advised the
Senate yesterday that from August,
1917. to November % last $50 ships
were constructed by that organiza-
ton. aggregating 1.216.36' gross tons.
Mr. Piez also reported that because
of inflated values due to the war
the normal value of many properties
of the housing division of the fleet
corporation will be worth less than
20 per cent of their cost. He at
tributed much of the high cost to in
creased freight rates and long hauls.
The corporation. the report said.
during the war undertook "a housing
projects. which included the con-
Struction of S.949 substantial houses,
1.119 apartments and substantial

may be weeks of occupation. Ems and
Nassau are two important towns which
have fallen to the French who were
sent into the American sector, but
Neuwied, a big industrial center, and
all the other towns in the northern
half of the sector are held by the
Americans.
The Americans have followed the
policy which characterized their first
days of occupation. They have pro-
mulGated no drastic rules to govern
civil life and in every way have en-
deavored to make the inhabitants feel
that they will not be molested so long
as they do not interfere with the mill
tary duties.
Soldiers Found in Pews.
While the people of Coblenz are
still somewhat resentful in their at
titdde, the residents of the smaller
towns evinced none of this hostility.
Dressed in their Sunday clothes the
Germans attended church service and
appeared surprised to find among the
congregations in some of the places a
few of the enlisted men.

billetings, as did many in Coblenz and
TreveS, but frequently showed a de-

Music Wins People.
Wherever bands were in action the
people crowded the street corners to
listen to the music, instead of hurry
ing to their homes, a situation that
did not exist when the invasion of
German territory was begun two
weeks ago.
Applica lions for leave of absence
are already largely on the increase.
but it is notable that the men are not
asking for permission to visit distant
POINTS, but merely to make excursions
irto the picturesque Rhine regions,
where almost every valley is guarded
by the ruins of medieval castle.

Strikes, 1ockouts, l. W. w activity

ness men and employers generally in
the United States were to pursue
more friendly policy in their dealings
with labor. Louis F. Post, assistant
secretary of labor. said at meeting
of the Commercial Club last night.
Mr.. Post said he looked for a period
of greatest prosperity America ever
has known. This would begin early
next summer and continue for several
years. He declared that the needs of
the world were such as to require the
full use of all it's muscle and all its
organizing and directing ability. But,
he declared if the period of great
prosperity is not to be followed by
one of intense industrial depression,
employers must change their attitude
toward those who work for them.

Requires All Resources.

"a world has been destroyed by the
war. and it must be rebuilt" said Mr..
Post For this work we will require
all our mental and physical resources.
At the close of the civil war there
were many who dreaded the return of
a million men to peaceful industry,
feeling that the country would have
a distressing unemployment problem
on it's hands. But hardly year had
elapsed when in the north the news
papers were congratulating the coun-
try on the fact that all the Union SOL
diers had found work.
Instead of saying 'Go'west, young
man. the cry may soon be Go to
Europe, young man," continued Mr..
Post. Europe will need our help and
all the help we can give her in re-
building herself. I am asked what the
Department of Labor is going to do
to meet the situation. 1 say the de-
partment can't create opportunities.
All it can do is to point to opportuni-
ties and show how they may be avail
ed Of"
Mr.. Post said labor troubles would
never cease until the employer shows
q willingness frankly to meet the rep
of organized labor. He de-
clared that the business man, who is
himself organized up to the handle"
has no right to object to the organi-
cation of the tOiler.
