very plainly.

FRANCE TO FOLLOW
. PH|LA. HOUSING PLAN
M. Greber, Head of Commission
Now Here, Says Examples
Here Are Excellent
PAUL CRET ON BOAR D

The housing projects in Philadelphia
and the surrounding territory will be
used as examples and types for the re-
construction work in France during the
next few years, according to NJ. Jaques
Greber. head of the commission of the
French Ministry of Reconstruction,
which is in this city for three days
stay.
"Yorkship village. Hog Island and
the Chester yards offer excellent ex-
amples of building operations which
were carried on with great scarcity of
labor and in very short time. These
are two of the same difficulties which
those interested in reconstruction work
in France are facing said NJ. Greber.
The commission was formed as Il re-
suit of report made by NJ. Greber
to the French government on the sub
iect Of methods and materials which
might be used IN reconstruction. 1t
came to this country to study the labor
saving devices which, according to Nj.
Greber, we have perfected. Building is
their sole interest and insistence was
laid on the fact that this was not a
business or financial affair.
"We believe that some sort of rigid
investigation and study such as this
should be made before manufacturers
invest their capital" declared NJ.
Greber.
Reconstruction work il France has
nearly reached the end of its first stage,
which is the settlement of bills of dam
ages" he continued. First the gov
ernment must look into the legality and
Justice of all private claims then the
government will settle these damages
with the money of Germany. These
steps must be undertaken before the
rest of reconstruction work can be car
ried to a successful conclusion
The commission is composed. besides
M. Greber, of Paul Cret, professor of
architecture at the University of Penn
sylvania who is assisting NJ. Grcber,
having recently returned from service
in France; Pierre Nuguc, an engineer
Of Chalons- sur Saone; Victor Per
reaud. another engineer Charles Jacob
ceramist. of Paris, and Rene Bon
homme, contractor, also of Paris.
Charles Whitaker is the secretary of
the commission during its stay here.
Mr.. Grcbcr is we'll knoWn in this
country, having spent ten years here.
He is also we'll known in this city as
the designer of the IHrkway plans. He
has designed some Of the most beautiful
gardens on the Widcner and Stotesbury
estates.
The commission will only remain here
for three days, and has no set pro-
gram for its stay. 1t will return to
France about the middle of July. 1t is
making its headquarters at the Ritz
Carlton.

ALLEGED THIEF IS ACCUSER
Charges Complainant With Assault
and Battery

After seeing the man he had arrested
for attempting to rob his store held
in $500 bail for court by Recorder
Stackhouse, Camden, this morning,
Isaac Benus, 1889 Louis street, found
himself charged by the alleged thief
with "atrocious assault and battery"
Benus keeps n grocery store at 1899
Louis street, and a few nights ago it
was robbed of more than half of its
stock of canned goods Benus did not
fix the lock, but hid himself in the
store on the following night to see if
the thieves would return for more.
A hand appeared around the edge
of the door and Benus snatched up a
cleaver from the counter and brought
it down across the top of the hand. The
hand belonged to Edward Belecke,
nineteen years old, Twelfth and Mt.
Vernon streets, Camden. He made a
charge of assault and battery against
Benus before his own hearing this
morning.
Belecke will probably lose his hand
as the result of his injury.

written months ago, still are capable OF
shedding light on many dark points, as

that one regrets to see them marred at
times by adverse criticism of Wilsonian

was written, has yihdicated. But these

Kipling on Familiar Ground

Rudyard Kipling in The Eyes or
Asia" has taken his readers PACK 10
India and has disclosed for our ediiica-
ton the point OF view of that strange
country. Tie four short stories Included
In the Volume deal with the war and It's
reactions upon the minds of natives OF
, the East: They tell some Of the things
that the eyes of Asia see In Europe
The first, called "a Retired Gentleman
Is in the forrp Of a letter from an lhdian
ma jor, convalescing from wounds IN an
English hospital to u soldier friend at
home. The methods OF fighting are
described. the beastlinesS OF the Ger
mans is condemned and they are called
outcasts. He compares the British So
Cial system with that Of his own country
and expresses admiration for the high
place accorded to women and for the
devotion which those women were show
/ ingJ in the war. The second story Is a
letter from a private soldier, also IN
British hospital, to his friends at home.
IT gives another side of the picture,
moving and convincing and helpful to
those who would understand the point of
view Of the East. The other two deal
with other phases of the relation be-
tween the East and the West. Tho little
volume will delight the admirers Of the
famous Englishman.
