COMPILING DATA ON
 DAMAGE IN ITALY
Methodists Assem5le Material for Guidance of Those Aiding in
 Task of Reconstruction
By Associated Press

Rome February 15-An American Methodist commission has recently re- turned to Rome after extensive trip throughout Italy to study social and economic conditions here so that Amer ican Methodists may know how best to aid Italy in her great task Of re construction. The commission consists of Dr. Frank Mason North of New York, Theodore s. Henderson of Detroit. Bishop William F. Anderson of Cin- cinnati and pr. B. M. ripple, head or the Methodist Episcopal church here
 Our journey through the redeemed regions was a sad revelation to us. said Dr. ripple. We have passed through hundreds of devastated cities and villages of the northern provinces City after city village after village is utterly and completely wrecked. Tens of thousands of homes have been entirely destroyed. Even where house lis left standing nothing remains but the bare walls and all the furniture has been removed.
 Here and there we passed groups or returning refugees. They looked cold and forlorn, yet did not complain. Un- til we saw it with our own eyes we did not begin to appreciate the magnitude of the difficulties which Italy has over come. the enormous sacrifices she made to win the war in the Alps"

folks must get from one place to an other quickly, comfortably and eco l omically--and as long as human beings continue to enjoy the pleasures and healthful benefits of life out of-doors- there'll be market for all the motor cars the factories can produce" says MT. Johnston.
 "There're a tremendous demand. now for all motor cars. Business never was so good as it is now--aud with the regular selling season still to come. There has been an increasing demand for automobiles ever since the col- .,rae Cf ;he central powers last Novem- ber. Since the first of the year we have broken all sales records Selling cars has been the least of our troubles getting them from the factory in sufficient quantities to fill the orders on our books has caused us the only worry we may have experienced
 Although the great Studebaker fac tories were back on peace basis, pro ducing the new Studebaker cars in quantities 60 days following the sign ing of the armistice, they have been utterly unable to give their dealers enough cars to meet the demands for immediate deliveries. Production has been materially increased each week since the first of the year but, with the wonderful national popularity of the new Studebaker cars stim ating buying activity, stacks of orders still emain unified to await their turn as

GERMANY MUST PAY
 FOR FRENCH TREES
Devastation of Forests One of Frances Chief Losses
 During the War


 Washington. March 22.-"Germany 0ill find that France will insist upon Ger many's paying in lumber for the cas- uslties of tho French forests which were destroyed during the war" declares F.. S Ridsdale, secretary of the American Forestry association, who has just re turned from a tour of the allied coun- tries. Mir. Ridsdale went to Europe to investigate forest losses in France, Bel gium, Italy and Great Britain, so that the American Forestry association might determine how America could help to replace the destroyed forests of Europe, by presenting forest seed to the various governments,
 ''ln northern France many of the for ests,' he says. have been so badly smashed by shell, shra pnei and rifle fire, TOT so badly cut for trench timbers, fuel wood and other supplies for the con tending armies that they have been vir- tually destroyed They can be restored only by replanting. The agricultural land lying between the forests in various sec tors of the battle front have, been so torn to pieces by shell fire that it is no longer serviceabie for agriculture and,

Pogroms in Poland and
 Lithuania Have Caused |, Death and Suffering


 London, February 2o-"The Jewish sit uation in Poland and Lithuania is so tragic that thousands are starving and tens of thousands elamoring for peynis- sion to join their relatives in the United States. says a report just received by the London bureau of the Zionist or sanitation from it's special commissioner. Israel Cohen. The question of reunit- ing families, the bureau announces. has been presented to the state department at Washington.s
 At Lemberg. Mir, Cohen says. he made ar inspectio ion Of the districts damaged during the. pogron1s and spoke with nu-' merous victims as well as with Jewish representa tives and with Colonel Wade of the British mission to Poland.
 There is abundant circumstanual evi- dence proving" his report continues, that the pogrom was organized by the local military authorities who supplied machine guns, hand grenades, automo- piles and motor lorries. There are sworn protocols of 500 cases in which officer patrols took part and 290o cases in which ordinary soldiers took part. The names are known of IS officers and 72 soldiers who were guilty or participation in as saults and p1under.
 tThe Polish military command at Lem berg is making desperate efforts to ob- tain evidence of Jewish attacks on Pol ish soldiers as a justification for the pcgrom Members of the Jewish militia previously released for lack of any real charge were rearrested and are still inn prisoned by the order of the military commander, despite the decision of the examining judge that they should be lib- erated.
 Damage done to personal property dur ing the pogrom is estimated at 1C0000,OOo crowns This does not include. how ever. the loss sustained by the destruc- tion of synagogues. The Jewish relief committee in Lemberg had expended up to the time of MT. Cohen's report, 1,S0O.Ooo crowns on feeding, clothing and lodging 5000 families
 After my return from Lemberg, MT. Cohen narrates 'I visited CaWiecim where a few days ago a band Of rowdies attacked the Jews during worship in scN- eral houses of prayer They broke the windows, tore up the books and also eom- lnitted considerable damage in the Jew isE cemetery, overturning and smashing tcmbstones. The Jews at Cawiecm pay 65 600 crowns monthly for the upkeep of the militia

each days production is allotted to deal CTS by factory officials
 This constantly increasing demand for new Studebaker cars-for all good cars-does not come from any one or two particular localities It is general from one coast to the other. or course. I am not unmindful of the fact that the unusually mild winter we are enjoying is perhaps responsible for a great many automobile sales now that would have been made in the spring anyway The balmy weather of the past two months has no doubt stinru- lated interest in motoring anew and considerably advanced the regular sell ing season But the fact remains that the big majority of the new cars sold since January have been purchased by people who have never owned a car be- fore-and do not buy their cars in season" like the veteran motorist It also substantiates my theory that the so-called point of saturation is still a long, long way off.
 f"There's every reason to believe that 1919 will be the biggest year the auto mobile industry has ever known-even bigger than the banner year of 1915 With materials becoming more plentiful manufacturers will be able to continu- ally increase their production-and the automobile dealers of America will find a buyer for every car that can be built this year..

like the devastated forests, will have to be planted with forest trees seed so that in years to come Slc shell holes may be filled by gradual erosion and the humus of the soil restored. Then the rcplantcd forests may be cut down and the land worked over and restored for agricultural use.
 ".The peace delegates arc now having prepared data upon the losses in the French forests. and France means to in sist upon a large amount of cutting in the German forests so that she may be pi ovided with lumber for reconstruction purposes as a part of the indemnity which Germany will be required to pay for the damage which has been in- f,icted
 Italy. Belgium and Great Britain will make similar requests. for they. too. have suffered forest losses. and they, too. need lumber in large quantities and believe that Ge~maHYs should supply it to the extent Of her ability Mir. Ridsdalc exrects that the American Forestry as sociation. hy securing large quantities of forest tree seed next fall will be able materially to assist Americas European allies in restoring their forests.
