U. S. PROPERTY VALUATION IN
FRANCE.

II is odd enough how American rail-
road construction, rolling stock, store
houses, docks, etc. constructed by the
United States government in France for
the purpose of expedting the work which
the United States was doing for the re-
lief Of France from the German aggres-
sion should have deprecated in value so
soon after it was put in position. Much
Of the construction must be compare
lively new in spite Of the fact that it
has been put to much usage during the
two years in which American efforts
were centered on French soil and in
French waters. Yet now that the Unit
ed States is trying to dispose Of that
property to the French government or
to French interests we find that the
property has dropped tremendously in
value; the depreciation has been most
remarkable. That is, the depreciation
has taken place according to the French
estimate. This III spite OF the fact that
nearly all, if not quite all, OF the CON
struction can be utilized by the French
people in the industrial expansion Of
their country and its resources. 1t Is
evident that sentiment is playing only
small part in the transactions between
the two countries now that the war has
ceased and the industrial strife has been
resumed and the self-seeking spirit has
been allowed to become dominant. 1t is
the old-time thrifty France that is now
negotiating with the United States, not
the France that was crying out for aid
back in 1917 Perhaps France is not to
be blamed for taking the faggling at
titude. Possibly the United States would
have done the same thing. Who can

The United States government would
eeem to be standing on tenable ground in
refusing to accept as ambassador from
Germany any person connected with the
regime Of Won Bernstorf, the ambassa-
dor prior to the war. The revelations
concerning various members Of the en-
bassy during the time when the United
States was maintaining a neutral attl-
tude in the war were of sufficient rotten
ness to constitute permanent bar
against the acceptance Of anyone who
had anything to do with Germany's rep
resentation in the United States at that
time. Public sentiment throughout the
United States win back up the govern
ment in refusing to receive Won Hahn
hansen or any other person who was en-
gagged with the now thoroughly detested
Won Bernstorff Moreover, a man of real
democratic stamp as typical of the new
republic would be more acceptable than
a man whose very prefix indicates lean
ings toward the old order of things in
Germany The United States will not be
q dumping ground for Germany.

and to express in person sentiment OF

Premier Clemenceau crossing the ocean
and coming back to the land where as a
teacher he spent the early years of his
young manhood striving to tell young
ladies how to understand and talk the
French language. Thus it seems certain
that the United States is discovered
once more. European royalty and Eu-
ropean big buggery which formerly
turned their steps to the United States
except on a forced mission are beginning
to appreciate the fact that there is some
thing in the United States besides a
scrabble after the almighty dollar. The
United States is land Of ideals, Of
people with hearts and of things which
appeal to ones better nature rather than
to the more Grass matters of life. There
may yet be succession of visits Of
European notables just to view this
land, which heretofore held in their
minds only hazy memories of wild west
life and gold coins that could be picked
up in the street. The war is doing some
thing along the line Of opening the eyes

SLOW MASTERING IN OF AMER
ICAN LEGION.

The work of organizing posts of the
American Legion in Vermont is not pro-
eeeding with the dispatch which might
have been expected. Nearly ell the larg
er towns and cities have taken steps to-
ward securing charters OF the legion and
have enrolled large numbers OF service
men as members; yet in the small places
there seems to be little activity and
almost no enthusiasm for the work.
There are few places in Vermont which
did not send men into the service in
sufficient numbers to warrant the forma-
ton of local post of the veterans or
ganization; and the matter Of home
pride, as well as of preserving some of
the firm relationships formed in the
service and of perpetuating the memory
of the great war, should prompt the men
in those towns to take the steps neees-
sary toward securing charter. A
strong, well organized organization, such
as the American Legion promises to be-
come, win be strong feature Of Amer
lean life score of years from now when
the Grand Army Of the Republic be
comes a tender memory as to its mem.
bership albeit perhaps not as to the or
ganization itself. The Grand Army of
