GERNANYS BILL
TO BE 10 BILLION
U. S. Engineers Figure Losses of
Belgium and France.
100000 STRUCTURES GONE
Committee Report Says Most of the
Figures of the French Budget
Body Checked Up and Found
Somewhat High.

Paris, Jan. S.-The first published
engineering estimate of the total dam
age done in the French devastated re-
gions is made by Maj. George B. Ford,
head of the Red Cross housing re
search service, after survey made
since the signing of the armistice. 1t
places the total bill which Germany
ought to pay at something under $13.-
000000,0O0.
Major Ford, who is a well-known
American engineer, says:
eve have checked most of the fig
ures reported by the French budget
committee to the chamber of deputies,
and we find its estimate somewhat
high
Major Fords own report is now be-
ing used by Major McKinstry's engi-
neering board, which is preparing it's
estimate under the guidance of the
peace commissioners. French insur-
ance companies also are highly COM
mending its accuracy.
BeIgium's Loss $3,oo0,000,oo
Major Ford estimates that Belgium
alone suffered from destruction to the
amount of $2,OOO,OOO0OO and more
than $1,000,000,O00 in loss of machin-
cry stolen by the Germans.
The French devastated area is equal
to Connecticut and Rhode Island. Half
a million buildings are damaged. of
which 100000 were totally destroyed.
The cost of building is two and a
half times greater than it was be-
fore the war. AS a result the total
building destruction is estimated at
$6.000,000O0O.
The total cost of replacing destroyed
public works and railroads is given at
$2,00O,000000. The Nord railroad
alone lost 1,731 bridges and 33S sta
tons.
1900 Churches Destroyed.
Twelve hundred churches, 500
schools, 1000 manufacturing plants and
800 public buildings have been obIiter-
ated.
Slightly more than 1000 towns have
suffered so per cent destruction. Noy-
| on, Ham, scissors, Dermans, Peronne,
Bapaume, Reims and Verdun have
been destroyed to an extent of 80 per
cent.
Approximately two million inhabi-
tants lost their furniture. Cotton and
wooden industries lost S6,500,000 as a
result of the theft or destruction of
spindles. The loss in linen amounts to
| $500,000.
OF the total of 30 sugar refineries
40 were destroyed, including a loss of
S25,OOO,O00 in machinery. Breweries
suffered to similar degree.
