.Nc,r York Tr,b,,,,e


What seems at first glance q frank
admission of the damage caused by
the German armies, and Of the Ger
man desire to redress it, was published
recently in the "Vossische Zeitung."
A little study, however, confirms the
view generally held that Germany is
still unrepentant. The articles goes
the length of praising Germany for In
dertaking the task of restoring France.
which, in the end, is not to be without
profit to the restorer. This task can
only be appreciated it says, by visit
to the devastated regions of Northern
France. 1t gives examples of the work
to be done. selected from an official in
vestigation made in 1916, and adds that
since that date the destruction and
ilapidation have greatly increased.
In the case of the mining industry
all copper, brass and their alloys have
been removed from the machinery and
their replacement will be not only
costly, but protracted. Most of the
mines have become flooded through
destruction of pumping machinery and
alteration of water courses. those in
an actual battle area being destroyed
completely. Machine and locomotive
works have been almost wiped out and
for many years there is certain to be
great deficiency in their output. The
textile industry was one Of the most
important in the North of France and
a long catalogue Of the enormous
damage that has been done is given. A
shorter account is given of the ruin
of sugar works. distillcries, breweries
and minor industries
Then follows the moral, from which
comfort is drawn. England and Amcri-
ca will be able to give little help, partly
because they will have their own af-
fairs to look after, but still more be-
cause their machinery and their ideas
arc so different from those of France.
But here is neighborly Germany, who
knows all about French industry and
who is so quick and capable in making
machinery. What an opportunity for
friendly cooperation and reconciliation.
The French will get what they need
and German industry will be at its
full pitch again. In the words of the
writer:
"a practical share in the work of
restoration By free German labor and
the delivery of German goods is the
only form in which German industry
can bear its part of the burden and
is therefore the form that will serve
France in getting what she wishes.'

Wall Street Profits
Freely Spent in
The Retail Stores
Visitors Who Have Made
Fortunes in Oil Also Are
Generous in Patronizing
New York Merchants

Most of the retail stores in this city
have done a record business in the past
week. Merchants who looked for a
slump after the remarkable pre- Easter
season are ready to acknowledge they
had misjudged the buying power of the
public, which, according to the man
ayers for some of the leading stores,
is increasing instead Of decreasing.
This buying, so the merchandise ex-
pcrts say, to some extent has its
source in the big profits that have been
taken out of Wall Street in recent
weeks. 1t is augmented by free spend
ing of money by visitors from the
Southwest who have made fortunes in
the oil fields. Neither the high prices
at which merchandise of al kinds is
selling, nor the luxury taxes, call forth
any particular protest from customers,
the department store managers say.
Early this week in authorization of
the holiday at the end of tna week.
women began purchasing their MD
summer and outing clothes. Sales of
white wash dresses, skirts, white shoes.
etc, symbols of vacation days at the
seashore and mountains, have been
large.
Merchants Here Fortunate.
New York is in a particularly for
tunate position" said the merchandise
manager Of one large Fifth Avenue
establishment wall Street is pros
porous and the members of the Wall
Street crowd are free spenders 1t is
surprising how quickly the New York
stores feel the reactions in the finan-
cial section. Our sales decreased dur
ing the time that Wall Street was in
active Along with this goes the oil
boom. There are hundreds. yes thou
sands of people in New York who have
made easy money in oil stocks lately,
and money easily attained, especially
by those who have not had it before.
is just as easily spent. I'll hazard a
guess that so per cent Of the profits
gained from oil stocks are spent on
luXuries rather than necessities.
The returning soldiers also have
contributed to the general prosperity
Of New York. Thousands of soldiers
are paid off and discharged from the
army at Camp Upton and other debar-
katon points in the vicinity of New
York. Most of these boys get three
months pay and their $50 bonus upon
their discharge. They spend most of
this money right here in New York,
and not little of it goes for new
clothes, shoes, hats, etc They like to
land home dressed in New York out
ht. SINCE most of them never visited
tins city before. What they don't
spend in the stores they spend in other
places, adding to the general prosper
ity of the city and ultimately to the
retailers prosperity"
From the viewpoint Of the retailers
"big business" Is not without its draw.

A POSTWAR
ODE TO HEARST

These verses, excoriating William
Randolph Hearst. were attached to q
protest signed some time ago by re-
turning American soldiers who threw
It from French steamship Patria to the
New York police boat Patrol, which,
with a part OF Mayor Hylan's commit
tee, met the Patria at Quarantine;
That's him, the guy in the black stet-
son tile,
With the cold storage air, the sanctifled
smile.
That's waving the flag like he's scared
to let so,
The flag that we fought for at Terry
Chateau.
The flag that he hung on his paper TO
hide
The coils OF the snake that was kissing
inside,
II he wants to shake hands you bet I'll
decline,
For the hand that shook Bernstorffs
viii never shake mine.
II you ask why they pick that breed Of
pup
To welcome us home again, I'll give up.
Is don't seem to be just the right thing
TO do
To try TO mix yellow with the red,
white, and blue,
feel like a guy who has come home TO
his shack,
To find a wolf waiting to welcome him
back.
II he puts out his paw ! shall fall out
OF line,
For the hand that shook Bole's will
never shake mine
A job in Berlin would be more in his
line.
Shaking hands with Hun heroes, back
from the Rhine
And telling the boche they have not
fought in vain,
And theyll get back their loot OF
Alsaoe-L Lorraine,
II he lamps me. you'll bet I'll side step
some way,
II he holds out his NIT, I'll lodge It and
say:
In lingo he sure must know, "Neln,
Nein,"
For the hand that shook Bernstorn's
will never shake mine.
