Just the other day | was present at a
real estate settlement which illustrated
this perfectly. \ house went from A
to 3 to G to u. The original grantor
was building and loan association.
The house was sold by the association
to the buyer for $500 Without even
having settled for it, he sold it to the
next man for $4,000, who in turn sold
it again for $4,000. Settlement was made
direct between the building and loan
association and the last buyer. That
house had grown in value $500 before
settlement was made. The men who
took the intermediate profit did not even
put their money into it.
Sterrett Presents Views
Robert J. Sterrctt, assistant United
States attorney. who has taken a con
stant interest in the woes of tenants
facing ejcctment, ana has saved hun
dreds of them from being put on the
street by invoking the federal laws
where there were sons in the service,
likewise found Mr.. Rhoads's suggestion
interesting.
"Therc are very much easier ways
of dealing with the situation" said
Mr. Sterrett. II do not wish to go
into a discussion of the constitution
atty of Mr.. Rhoads's proposition. But,
as a matter of eXpediency, it seems to
me it would be simpler for the Legis-
lature to pass law requiring greater
lapse of time between the issuance and
execution of writ of ejectment. Usu-
ally under present practice the time is
relatively short.
Adoption of leases that will not OK e
pire until April. 1920, was urged yes
tcrday by former Lieutenant Governor
Frank Il. McClain. who is conducting
the investigation into rent profiteering
I for the state welfare commission.

criticism Of the action Of the Peace
Conference, but the remainder OF MS
article is absolutely true.
Colonel Groome had carefully read
Mr.. Kospoth's s description of the Pan
German revival.
"Thc writer understands the situa
tion and describes it well, - he SAID.
"What he says is not at all surprising.
What is going on in Germany has been
known for some time.
at can be said without exaggeration
that Germany is better able to compete
for world trade today than before the
war or ever before. True, Germany
has lost several millions of men. But
the country itself has not been scratched
after four years of war. War damage
in Germany amounts to nothing, but
war improvement to Germany is enor
nous. That country is prepared for
commercial conquest.
"We have examples here in America
of what has taken place in Germany.
The Bethlehem steel plant has been
vastly enlarged to meet the present de-
mands of war. The great Hog Island
shipyard has sprung into existence. All
over the country we see this industrial
advance, due to the war.
at is the same in Germany Steel
plants have been enlarged, factories
have been improved and new plants
have come into existence.
"Not having suffered any sort OF
damage during the war, German in e
dustrial plants are ready for immediate
use on larger scale than before the
struggle in Europe.
"Mr. Kospoth's article gives an idea
Of what is going on there and what we
may look forward to.

BerIln's Arrogant Watchword

The watchwOrd in Berlin today is
the 'Einheitsstaat, or unified state, and
this ruthless centralization of govern
ment is identical with annexation by
Prussia Of all the formerly semi indie
pendent German states and their def
mite conversion by force to the spirit of
Berlin, And this spirit is an unchanged
spirit of militarism and materialism,
which may well cause one to despair
of the future,
THE specter of bolshevism is called
up with great virtuosity by the Berlin
rulers in order to frightcn the Allies
into allowing Germany to keep larger
army than the Versailles treaty admits
In reality there is not, aud never has
been, any danger of bolshevism in Ger
many. unless il be secretly fomented
by the Prussian reactionaries them
selves to further their own schemes.
For every Bolshevik outbreak in Ger

tcrly the other day when he passed
through here:

CHANGES FIND NO FAVOR

Detroit. Oct. 1S.-The Episcopal gen
eraI convention is being urged to choose
Philadelphia as the place for holding
the triennal meeting OF 1922 with an
earnestness that promises favorable
action.
Repeating the invitation extended
several days ago. the Rev. DR., Floyd
Tomkins yesterday made it evident that
K there was no lukewarmncss in the
city's desire to entertain the members
and pointed ont that Philadelphia is
entitled to the honor because Of its
conspicuous share in the early growth
Of the Episcopal church in America
and its steady growth.
Proposed Changes in DiSfavor
a The attitude of the House of Deputies
toward the proposed change in the
divorce canon, which would have pre-
vented the remarriage of innocent
parties to divorce by Episcopal
clergymen. which resulted yesterday in
the defeat of the proposal. as well as
the tendency to hold on to what the
church already has is becoming more
marked
In the proposals for prayer book re
vision thus far considered by the House
of Deputies the tendency was shown
by the three defeats given to the rc.
visionists' proposals.
The first proposal defeated was that
of changing the prayer for the prpsi-
dent of the United States.
