dangers all Psrlsians have returned To
their city homes. Old time residents
say that Paris was never before so
crowded as at present
LODGINGS HARD TO FIND
Lodgings are hardly to be found. The
advertisement of an apartment for rent
brings literally hundreds of home seek
els. Naturally with the present de-
rland the prices of leases on such
apartments not rented for long terms
have mounted to figures never before
dreamed of.
Though the armies have ceased the
rcquisitioning of hotels for admins
trative purposes, there has been no
relative change in the scarcity of the
rooms. The city has increased in the
number of visitors much more rapidly
than the hotels have been released
Incidentally great numbers Of families
which before the war lived in apart
raents are now occupying hotel quar-
tiers. The costs of maintaining sepa
rate homes has placed them completely
out of the reach Of many formerly well
TODD families. Even with the high
hotel prices the latter are still much
cheaper than homes.

Britain New Country Under Peace

Industrial plants have now completed
their reorganization for peace. Pre-
war sewing machine mills, year ago
turning out guns and shells, have
again become sewing machine fac
tories. Machine shops have been re-
modelled and re-equipped, but equipped
with appliances capable of many times
the old output by hand.
Except for lack of transport to carry
the goods to market production would
be virtually normal, Much of Britain's
best rolling stock has still to return
from France. Many locomotives and
coaches were actually destroyed dur
ing the war
Notwithstanding. Great Britain. has
doubled her exports of manufactured
articles since the armistice, bringing
them to about two-thirds pre-war vol
ume.
Most of this has gone to the CONT
nent.
Germany has received the greatest
proportional increase of English ex-
ports-from zero to over three and
half million pounds worth of merchan-
disc in the month of September alone.
Scandinavia stands first quanti-
lively; Sweden from one million
pounds worth a'month in 1918 to over
nine millions; Norway from one and
ha1 TO eleven mllllOnSs denmark, from
less than a million to sixteen.
AMERICA BUYS LESS.
America is today buying less than
before the armistice-13.08 9. 900 pounds
in 1918. as compared with 10,607 900
per month now. This is due largely to
the fall OF the English pound on the
American exchange, 1t having dropped
over 60 cents during the year
One of the sadder tasks OF the last
year has been finding jobs for several
hundred thousand disabled soldiers.
Two months ago King George APP
pealed to every business or industrial
firm in England to employ at least
one, more If possible. at Jobs they
could do despite their handicap
The government set an example by
admitting one-armed and one-legged
men into the fire department and by
using MANNED soldiers when possible
as porters in government buildings.
One hundred thousand of these Grip
pled soldiers are still idle. according TO
the labor ministry. Fifty thousand OF
these are in hospitals.
1t is estimated about 100000 demob-.
ilized soldiers were out OF work last
month.

Paris, Nov. 1.-THE change from an
era of glory and suffering and heroics
to the prosaic matter of fact daily
routine of earning living has been
far too abrupt for the people of France,
So fundamentally was the life of ev-
cry man. woman and child of France
affected by the long struggle, that the
one year since the signing of the arm
istice has proved to be too short a
time for the readjustment of the men,
tai processes. In their minds the peo-
rle are living over the terrible days
between August, 1914 and November
1918. In many cases the people can
rot realize that the war is really over.
Such a great world revolution has
proved too unusual to be fully compre-
hended by the people who played the
greatest part in the change.
The armies of France are demobil-
lied. The men no longer wear their
uniforms. The heroes of last year.
the far famed Poilus, are now en-
gagged in uninteresting tasks such as
driving street cars, tending crops, or
selling ribbons. To all outwfI APP
pearances Paris is a city of civilians.
Very few men in either the uniforms
of France or the allies are to be seen
or the boulevards. But the change
from horizon blue and puttees to civ
iiian clothes has not been accompanied
lJy a complete mental rehabilitation.
TAKE THINGS EASY
A very noticeable let down in human
effort has marked tie past year. This
has been especially true among the
women--the mothers and wives Of the
fighters. Many women who endured
wars hardships without complaint and
with unceasing work have been COM
relied to take long rests, many even
have been sicl<ly ever since the war
strain was so suddenly removed. Sta
tistics show that the number of women
t-eated in French hospitals was much
GREATER during the yoar following the
armistice than during the year pre-
ceding the amistice. Doctors are all
aereed that this condition has been
due to the violent reaction following
the very long period when the woman
hood of F'rance--no less than the poilu
was fighting the Hun.
Paris is more populous than ever.
Even throughout the war the capital
WAS crowded, but the disappearance OF
