FRENCH AND GERMAN WAR BRIDES
STAGE CONTINUOUS BATTLE AT SEA
ON WAY FROM BELGIUM TO AMERICA

each other like lot of strange bull
dogs.
AT the start OF the memorable voy-
age of the Cantigny from Amsterdam
TO Brooklyn, with 602 soldiers return
ing from the Rhine on board, the
battles between the women we're
largely vocal. They sang at each
other, with venom in every note. The
French wives say the Germans
started 1t, and the Germans saw it
was the volatile French who lit the
flres Of discord which blazed all the
way across the bleak Atlantic.
French Have the Pep
Naturally the 10 Suzannes wera
somewhat handicapped. vocalIy and
physically, when 1t came to close
quarters with the Gretchens. Thew
were still further handicapped by the
fact that there were IS war babies
among the German contingent and
not single, solitary doughboy Junior
among the whole dozen of French
matrons. But it was said by those
who made the eventful voyage. that
what the French wives lacked in
numbers, they made up in pep and
agility.
The French wives had not met the
German wives until they got aboard
the transport. Then the trouble be-
gan Dangers flew from eye to eye
and lips curled in feminine scorn. AS
with all great battles, the second bat
tie of Cantigny-for it was at Can
tigny that the American soldiers
made their first attack in France
began with outpost skirmishes Then
came the inevitable, mass formation
The French wives, dozen strong,

challenge direct to the German wives
and they were not long in accepting
battle. German reinforcements pour

SO German voices, alr trained to the
moment, were ready for action. Thev
met the enemy with a grand and
ever swelling chorus of Die Wacht
Am Rhein.'
Peace Makers Appear
The battle of songs waged furi-
ously for a time, but finally the
peace makers arrived. They arrived
in the form of Is khaki-clad hus-
bands. The peace makers lot is al

But the problem wasn't solved by
any means and the American melting
pot had not begun to melt. The
French wives said they hated the
Germans and the Germans said they
could forgive anybody in the world
anything except being French. The
song battles were renewed daily I'M
til the Cantigny was only about two
days out of New York and then the
strain became too great and French

A Real Serious Side

however, and it is one which is likely
to mar the happiness of some of the
unions. These sofufer wives had been
living at Coblenz amid all the lux
uries that come with the possession
of great wealth. 1t is true their hus-
bands have been earning only about
SAG a month. and one would scracely
call that great affluence, but Amer
lean dollars translated into German
marks during the last few months
tell different story.
Furthermore the story is intrigu-
ing to those who love high finance.
In German marks the average Amer
lean soldier on the Rhine is being
paid at a rate which would normally
be the equivalent of anything from
s1,70O to $4,000 a month. This means
anywhere from 1900 to 5000 marks.
for the dollar has been as high as
900 marks in the last few weeks and
when the war brides sailed was still
lowering about that figure, although
it has since dropped to below 230.
OF course the German mark once
worth "a cents does not buy in these
days what 1t did before the war. The
cost of living in Germany has in
creased many fold. but to the family
being paid in American dollars, IL is
still ridiculously cheap. For instance.
the German war brides could buy fine
kid gloves for fifty cents. and very
good ones for a quarter. They will
find living on thirty-odd dollars a
month In the United states very diff
ferent from that life of luxury along
the Rhine.
Some one has figured out that an
American major general on the Rhine
is paid at the rate Gin German marks)
of no less than s550.000 a year.

to come home.
