Looking To,card Russia

IL Is IOpeu LOT peace WORK TO extend this
section of the business and to get good part
of the orders for the rebuilding of the rail-
ways of Europe and especially those of the
Balkan countries and Of Russia. The Krupps
as we'll as most other German Industrial men
are looking very anxiously toward Russia.
The old munitions department will be re-
tanned as it is for the time being, but the
additions, which include much machinery for
accurate work, will be employed upon a new
programme. This programme is going for
ward slowly, the principle that no new
product will be made until sales organi-
zation for its disposal has been created and
there is certainty of market The con-
trolling thought is that it is cheaper TO scrap
machinery than to employ it upon an unsal-
able product. The works at Magdeburg will
devote itself exclusively to agricultural
machinery. Kiel and Essen will cooperate
III the building of ships and Diesel engines.
while Essen WILL in addition to the railway
material, take up the making of typewrters,
calculating machines, cash registers and vari-
GUS other small machines which call for accu-
rate work--but only if tests prove that these
products Will show profit. The real bulk
Of the work which is hoped for will come into
the heavy class and they are now trying very
hard to find big forgngs to keep the great
presses working. All of these presses are
idle.
The firm has fair number of orders for
the heavier work in hand, but they are so
short on iron that all is being turned into
the railway shops to relieve the situation on
the German railways, and there is firm i'm
preston among the directors of the firm that
the blockade is now being maintained solely
Tor the benefit of England and America, so
that their merchants can book the orders of
the world while Germanys hands are tied
You cannot convince a German that this is
not the case

Mr.. Theodore Dreser's story of his
brother Paul. in "T'welve Men," revives
memories of some Of the songs Paul wrote.
We had forgotten that he was the author
of Gust Tell Them That You Saw Me-"
"The Blue and the Gray" (Mr Dresser
spells it "Grey" for some reason), and "The
Pardon Came Too Late" For those three
songs contain our three favorte lines in
American lyric literature. They are "Ts
that you, Madge?' l said to her She
quickly turned away; "She had three sons
three only ones-all worth their weight
in gold" and "Safe in the arms of his
Maker, there to learn his fate.''
1t is possible that the first meeting of the
l.. of N. will be held in Washington. The
housing plans designed for the war
workers, and which, if the war had lasted
another year or two, might have been car
ried out, may yet be of avail.

his trial, to prove an alib And then the
counsel for the plaintiff will say "Where

If this weren't the Victory Loan, it might
have been the Fifth Liberty Loan. And
the Victory Loan might have had a far
higher number.

The high cost Of living was just a.
much a problem in Elizabethan times
as 1t IS today. The Rev. William Har-
rison, as quaint gossip as Pepys, and
equally gifted as a chronicler, COM
planned that magistrates In his day
winked at merchants who charged
more for commodities than they were
permitted by law 10 charge. In that
day, as in this, 'bodgers"-thls delight

more profit.
During the world war there was
much talk Of certain Americans who
deliberately destroyed carloads OF pO-
tatoes eabbages and other vegetables
and foOdstuffs In order to raise the
prices OF these commodities. Same old
story. There's nothing new. remarks
