China in Need
of Funds

WASHINGTON, Oct. 30.-China is
in need of funds, not only for devel-
opment work, but also to pay off and
demohilize its army of 100000 men,
DR.. Paul Reinsch, former American
Minister to that country, said recent
ly in discussing the general financial
situation in the Far Eastern republic.
to which he now is financial adviser.
DR.. Reinsch explained that the big
army had been enlisted because of the
difficulties between south and north
China. This force no longer is need
ed, but under tn law it cannot be de-
modified until the men have been
paid off, and there are not sufficient
funds for this purpose.
For development work, such as ir-
igation and railroads, DR.. Reinsch
said, China needs approximately
$200,000,000. A smaller temporary
'oan to tide matters over for six or
seven months also is in contempla-
ton.

Denmark Needs
American Coal

The coal shortage In Denmark has
become so serious that the Danish gov
ernment has ordered eighteen Danish
steamers, aggregating nearly 10000
tons, placed Immediately in the Amer
lean coal trade. One-third of the pop
ulation is dependent for support on
industries requiring coal.
Importation of American coal to
Denmark was unknown until recently
Tut now is expected to reach large
proportions. Before the war Den.
mark imported and consumed nearly
100000 tons of coal and coke an.
nually. Great Britain supplied the
greater part. Last year Denmark i'm
ported only 100000 IONS, a consid
cradle part of which came from Ger
many.
