GERMANY WANTS
70 81 FRIENDLY
TEUTONS ANXIOUS TO RETAIN
FRIENDSHIP OF AMERICA,
WRITER SAYS.
(By CARL d. GROAT.)

UNITED Press Staff Correspondent
BERLIN, Feb. "a (By MaiD =
"What is sentiment in America to-
ward Germany? Is America ever 60
ing to be friendly toward US again?'
These are the most frequent ques-
tions an American meets in travelling
about Germany. The, writer has just
returned from a journey on which he
had an opportunity to question---and
be questioned. And he found that the
two above constituted the leading
things in which the travellers were
Interested. lU
Some of them asked in the manner
Of people who didn't or wouldn't I'M
derstand why America came into the
war. Others asked hopefully; they
were for the most part persons with
relatives in America, and they hoped
that relations would again be friendly
in the near future.
Self-interest plays the largest role
in the questions. Germans realize
America is the land with the money
bugs at this time. And they are inter-
ested in friendly relations mainly be-
cause they feel that such relations
would mean added food and added
raw materials from the American
storehouse
1t was interesting to check up on

a train, between Hamburg and Kiel,
there was a middle aged German of
good appearance who had been in big
business all his life. lie admitted he
was monarchistically inclined, but
said emphatically he and his circle

return of Wilhelm. A republic for
time would suit them: then if quiet |
and order were restored they would
like a limited monarchy. A woman

turn. Others indicated their feelings
var,ously, but whether they wanted
monarchy again or not. they weren't
favorable to having the former kaiser
return. a wounded officer complained
of present-day conditions. He could
get no work because he is crippled /
and yet the government was cutting

LOWERING PRICES

Marked price reductions are observ-
able in almost every line of industry.
The movement is a natural and
wholesome one, and it has been
brought about, not by the enactment
OF laws or the adoption of resolutions,
or the ena of any action by any
political or governmental body. The
taneous refusal Of the consuming pub
lie to buy.
1t was not an organized movement.
Organizations here are there have
been formed to combate high prices.
But these organizations were them
selves the outgrowth Of the individual
sentiment. They had their influence
in s%tiffening the common purpose.
but generally speaking, the people of
the country have acted individually,
and, feeling that the prices of most
commodities were higher than they
could afford to pay, have postponed
all purchases h a could be postponed.
n country is fortunate that the
slackening in buying came, no be-
cause of the inability Of the people to
buy, but because of their disinclina-
ton to buy at prices which we're con-
sidered too great. That means that
the moment prices have become stab
ilized on what is regarded as a sound
and reasonable basis, buying will be
resumed, n because buying has
been slack in many lines for some
time. it may be expected to be re-
su,ned with greater vigor than ever.
[ There has never before been a dem
onstration on SO comprehensive a
scale. and within such a short time,
of the regulation of prices by the
operation Of the law Of supply and
demand.
