DR. WAREHOUSE lie FORT

a year and half in France
for the Women's Overseas Hospital.
She left New York as director of
the second unit sent over, August,
1917, for the treatment of gassed
men. Before this time Dr.. lie Fort
was assistant attending physician at
Bellevue Hospital dispensary. She
comes back with a vivid, first-hand
knowledge Of the needs Of France
at this time, and after making her
final report to the Women's Over
seas organization (Which discontin-
ued its activities in France on Sep

her new post as director of the
temporary quarters of the American
Memorial Hospital at Rheims. These

At Beauvais in Picardy, in the
region back of the military zone,
DR.. LIE Fort directed the units work
in French hospital of 900 beds.
The treatment of gassed men, ag-
gregating probably ten or fifteen
thousand, was carried on through
out the war. The last group of
! forty-tive was received the night
of the armistice--most of them
blinded. Grip was raging at this
time and supplies and medicines
were pitifully short.

Too Many
Relatives

One of the big causes for running
away seems to be the difference in
their attitude toward life Of Amer
leans and foreigners.
Such was the case with a pretty
little woman who was found wan
dering about the station with a tiny
baby in her arms. Her husband was
foreigner, and following the GUS
tom of his country had brought his
bride to live at the home of his
parents. There livsd all the broth

because people were pouring into
the city, thousands a week, with no
hospital facilities Of any kind.
These people, of whom there are
by now 10000, are undernourshed,
homeless; many are tubercular; the
children are often soft -boned.'
One woman came carrying a child
that had two broken thighs and was
in stupefied condition from pnue-
nlonia. The mother had dropped
The child while she slept, holding it,
and was unconscious of the injury.
The French are struggling with
these desperate conditions, but are
utterly unable to meet them at this
time. Some say that the French

have had a suspicion Of this IN
France. And when we who were
working there asked the question
frankly, Would you rather have
the money and have US go?' weWere
answered, How could that be, when
the Americans have saved us and
cur need is still so great? Let us
send a. petition to prove that we
want you Only those who cannot
understand French or are very far
away could get such an idea
at is to meet such immediate
needs" continued Dr. LIE Fort, '.that
the hospital in Rheims is needed.
Five or ten years from now, if the
Huns really pay the 'dommage de
guerre,' France will carry her own
burdens, but let no one make you
believe that she does not need US
now.
"Under present conditions the
running Of the hospital is extremely
costly. Eggs and milk are sky-high.
The children must be nourished first
of all, and the babies being born
must enter life under decent con-
ditions if France is to live again.
The gratitude of these women who
are repeopling France under such
terrible conditions, when the bare
necessities Of decency are given
them, is overwhelming.

UNCOMFORTABLE" is WAR |
WITH U. s., SAYS ISHlI
Speech Of Ambassador to United
States to Toxic Press League
Quoted.


TOXIC, Wednesday. July % (by the
Associated Press). - Newspaper re-
ports of an address delivered to the
Toxic Press League today by Viscount
Kikujiro Ishii, ambassador to the
United States, who recently returned
to Japan, quote the ambassador as
saying that some Japanese seemed to
fear that war might break out be-
tween Japan and the United States
over the Chinese question, but that to
him such a thing was inconceivable.
All that war would do would be to en-
tail great losses upon both countries,
Viscount Ishii added.
The ambassador is further quoted
as telling the newspaper organization
that he believed the Americans de-
sired to develop China in cooperation
with Japan. In, concluding his speech,
the reports add, he urged the Jap
anese to stick to the last to their pro-
posal for racial equality.

Situation Is Admitted.

This situation is today admitted by
officials in the government. BY De-
partment Of State action the Ameri-
can business man is empowered to
resume trade relations with enemy
countries through the medium of ex-
port licenses. Exports may flow as
freely as the business man can ar
range. The imports Of dyes, potash
and chemicals are alone prohibited by
the American government. The great
field of imports and exports which
existed before the war is open II the
business man can avail himself of the
opportunity, but in so far as govern
ment assistance is concerned he must

field.

are preparing elaborate plans for the

SO out Of proportion to the advantages
obtained by immediate business in
filtration within Germany that many
others are avoiding such methods of
doing business.
. The American business man is not
alone confronted with the question of
credits. Communication enters large
ly into the success in meeting Euro
pean competition. Though American
concerns can never hope to compete
with European countries in certain
products. aided as they are by quick
transport systems and ''next-door-
neighbor" means Of communication,
there are, however. many essential
raw products of this country which
Germany desires and which can be
sold by American exporters at fig
ures less than those of foreign coun-
tries. But to make deals there must
be ready communication.
German cables cut and all BIZ ness
passing through countries potentially
business rivals of American concerns,
there are many chances Of delay in
market. The French and British
companies have 1t within their
power to retard messages from this
country to the advantage Of their
own exporters. It is not intfmated in
oficial circles that French and Brit
ish governments would sanction such
delays, but the personal equation re-
acting against American business
men is a factor which government
officials here have considered.
Messages Once Held.
During the period of censorship
messages constnatly were held in
London and Paris. Always the Amer
lean business man, who, after the
armistice, began to feel out central
European conditions, was under the
official eye Of prospective rival.
Hundreds Of messages were held in
London alone = messages which
brought about some sharp words and
official exchanges during the period
of the peace conference in Paris.
Though European governments have
pledged themselves against delay,
American officials declare that it
would be natural for foreign cable
and wire concerns to carry the heavy
business of their own countries be-
fore granting right of way to that of
America.
Though sympathetic with the Amer
lean business man and promising to
render every official aid within the
the moment, the American who de-
sires to do business in central Eu-
rope today is beset with such grave
set of complexities that the outflow
Of exports from this country under
the new licensing system is not what
it was expected when first the State
Department made announcement Of
the privilege Of renewing business
