BERLIN IS SPENDING
IT'S MONEY MADly
do Not Care" Answer of
Thousands Whose Wealth
is Lean; City Wide Open.
By CARL d. GROAT
eUnited Press staff Corresponds

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent. )
BERLIN. (By Mail.)-A sort of
"devil-may-care" spirit prevades Ber-
| lin.
1t undoubtedly arises from the let
down after four years of war. And 1t
manifests itself in a wild pursuit Of
pleasure. Champagne and gambling
are the main objects upon which plea
sure-craving Berlin directs its atten-
ton. seeking surcease from the past.
Berlin may lack for food, but il
doesn't lack for amusements. A vast
class of rich folks are going through
their money with a surprising rapidity
while many persons of more moderate
means have caught the infection and
are cutting into savings of lifetime to
satisfy the almost universal desire for
pleasure.
Even the reds" who are supposed
to be very poverty stricken, have a
trace of the spirit, as was instanced
recently when Sparatacus party was
announced for one of the suburbs. with
the statement that there'd be plenty
to drink and much to eat. In short
the circular stated practically. that
though the people were poor they were
going to spend " hat they had with a
lavishness and abandon. There was to
be food such as a rationed people
were not supposed to be able to OBJ
tain and there was to be drink galore,
and the guests were to stay as long as
they saw fit.
Alive With Cafes
AS result of this spirit. the city is
fairly alive with cafes and dance halls.
There is generally little. or poor, food
in these places, but the habitues buy
wine with a recklessness that would
make even a wealthy Chicago packer
or a Pittsburg steel magnate dizzy.
AS for gambling, Berlin at present
is probably the widest open city in the
world. Men and women play for sakes
of thousands of marks, and seem to
get little thrill over either winning
or losing.
The whole spirit of this pleasure
mad crowd is cne of forced gaiety
There is none of the sparkle to it that
one experiences among the French. 1t
is simply sort of stunned let down.

game has been played out; we've lost.

AMERICANS IN Brazil
HOPE FOR NEW TRADE
Stars and Stripes in South
American Harbors Scarce
Since Civil War.

RIO DE JANETRO, Aug. 13.--Am-
orleans here and In other Brazilian
ports are awaiting the return OF the
good old days Of the supremacy of
the American merchant marine with
a feeling of confidence in the restora-
sion OF their commercial markets with
a spirit OF patriotism.
They are hoping to see in the near
future the stars and stripes floating
from at least 40 to so per cent OF the
ships IN the harbors of Rio, Santos
and Pernambuco. a condition that has
not existed for more than a half cen-
tury, since the decline of Americas
merchant fleet following the civil
war. and the introduction shortly af-
terward of steel vessels by Great
Britain.
The Drazilians and other South
Americans were closer to the United
States than to any other country in
the middle and fore part of the last
century, through contact with Yam
kee shippers of Yankee trading ships,
but the neglect Of Americas merchant
marine. which dwindled after the
'eos' to practically nothing. coupled
with the growing enterprise of the
old world In the direction of the
Southern continent, distracted South
Americas interest from their pow
eyful sister republic in the north and
gave Europe a long lead in South
America
Only the world war succeeded in
accomplishing any real rsults, and
from the efforts of the United States
shipping board. the United States
chamber of commerce. the Pan-Am-
ericanS Union and other organizations
and individuals the outlook has again
taken on roseate hue.
In 1911 only three American ves-
sells touched at this port, in compari-
son with EST ships of American regis
try which entered Rio in 1858 From
1860 on there was steady decline.
