explained by lack of ships to carry.
ore from Spain. But that there is a
certain amount of apathy in industry
is undoubted. This is the reaction aft
er the intense activity of the war.
The general effect OF all this has
with things as they are and desire
10 emigrate to other countries. Con-
sequently there is a rush for passen-
ger accommodation on the New York
and st. Lawrence steamers. If there
were'plenty Of steamers this would be
all right. But there are less than half
the number Of pre-war passenger YES
sells. On the Glasgow-New York serv-
ice before the war the Anchor line had
four first-class vessels-the Columbia,
the Caledonia, the California and the
Cameronia. OF these only the first
named remains. The others were lost
during the war When "the four G. 81
were running they maintained regu-
lar weekly service. One boat of the
four left New York and one left Glas-
kgow each Saturday. 1t was a service
nearer to that Of trains run to time
table than any other from Glasgow
Now the company finds It totally Inn
possible to resume any such service.
Americans Get the Berths.
One or two vessels have been char
tered for single runs, but they are not
fitted for carrying large Plumbers OF
passengers, and they can do little to
relieve the situation. so the chances
are that many Of those people desir
Gus of going to America will be unable
| to do so.
For this Americans themselves will
be somewhat to blame. Large mum
beers of them have already booked
passage eastward, and also return
passages later In the year. The rount
trip Is booked In New York, and tn,
offices of the lines here are simply In

commodation for such and such trips

and returning In. September or Octo
Der. This means that berthage which
would have been utilized for immi

taken up by Americans who have
money to spend and wish to see Eu

1t was In such u town that lived for
nearly five months Of the spring Of 1919,
and though my main business lay
with the American army, had an
opportunity to get at least a surface
impression Of the life of the village.
i shall think of our little town al
ways as 1t appeared in the dazzling
sunshine of the first spring days. The
ugly modern houses were in the main,
gardenless and built plumb to the
street, but despite the lack of crocus
and swelling bud. spring was there In
the tremendous hustle of moppings
and sweepings and drubbings that
overlooked through doors ajar and
open windows. Stills became fash

small "squareheads." The children
swarmed on the main street (fr0m

much singing and sort of chant,

peans In Brazil. where the first Portu-
guese colonists found the Indians
gathering the leaves Of this plant for
use in the making of moccasins. The
plants require from four TO six years
to mature, but live from twelve to six
teen years. in comparison with sisal
which lives from ten to twelve years.
The fiber is lighter than Indian hemp
and finer than hennequen from Yucca

rather spectacular history. Repeated

ter country that, an intense propagan-
da for the manufacture Of coffee bags
from this plant was begun and result
ed in the building of factory in Sac
Paulo for thar purpose.
although the factory attained an
output of 100000 bags year, and
found ready. enthusiastic buyers, diff
cultes so increased that after few
years of operation the factory was de-
voted exclusively to the manufacture
of bags from jute. The failure was not
due to the poor quality of the bags, but
rather to the lack of cooperation
among the planters!

other ~fbrous plant growing wild In the

ture of bags would eliminate the In

Brazil. Uses for the others will be
found later"
