German Flag to
Fly in America
In Near Future
ENJOYS to United States Ar
rive-Consulate at New
York City to Open
January 3.

New York, Dec. 2S.-Germany'
diplomatic and consular forces today
pressed their preparations for hang
ing out their flag again in Washing
ton, New York and other cities.
The Steamer Nieuw Amsterdam
arrived with Karl Lang. charge OF
the German embassy, and consular
agents for western cities.
The new German consulate lere
opens January 5. Most of its staff
already has arrived.
Among those who arrived with
Herr Lang-who on appointment OF
a German ambassador, will become
German consul general at New York
was Armand Valette vice consul
at San Francisco. Herr Lang, who
has been "a years in the German
diplomatic service, summed up the
question of indemnities in these
words:
Germany Cannot Pay.
"At present Germany cannot pay.
We must devise new ways"
Expanding on conditions at home
he continued:
Economic conditions are much
sounder. The new republican gov
ernment is doing its best to establish
good conditions. II they leave us.the
means to do things, we will certain
ly come back The people are in
'cliied to live in an orderly manner
and want better conditions of life.
'It is very hard for the people to
face the future under conditions i'm
posed in the treaty of peace. Accord
ing to the treaty, we have to iur-
nish coal and dyes and pay clear
ing money of more than 500,000,000
marks a year, and in addition we
have the reparations.
I'VE have been hurt 4 great deal
by the cutting off of the eastern
provinces. That compels US to go
outside OF Germany for much OF the
food.
Must Find New Way.
we have the idea that the present
conditions and methods cannot go
on. We tried two ways of meeting
the conditions, the only two ways
we knew, and they would not work.
Some other way must be found, so
that we can pay. What it will he, |
do not know.
81 do know that we felt the only
way to get money was TO export Our
goods to all countries and this we
have tried TO do. Many countries OBJ
jected and passed laws to keep our
out. In this way they
deprived us of the only sensible way
to earn the money they ask OF us.
This being a failure, our only
way was to buy foreign money. This
lowered our mark, and acted as a
temptation to foreign buyers

The Bootblaek.

Fifty years ago boys did the street
bootblacking in New York. That was
in the days of Mason's Backing, when
the polish was put on with brushes N
stead of cloths, and required elbow
grease. Polished shoes now are prac-
tically enameled. Then the shine was
sensitive, and disappeared with the
least rub or dampness.
But it was a busy army of boys on
the streets of New York, with their
little boxes and humble equipment,
seeking five cent and ten cent shin
plasters in the years before specie pay
ments were resumed following the
War of the Rebellion, and many OF
them clothed and fed themselves with
their earnings.
Now a boy must be sixteen before
he may lawfully shine shoes in New
York, a job peculiarly adapted to boys
from twelve to fifteen years old. They
cannot vote, so shoe shining has be-
come mans job, because when boy
is sixteen his voice is turning bass,
and he can earn more at something
else.-Chicago Journal of Commerce.

AUTOMOBILES AND WAR.
Superior Destructive Power of the For
mer

i In none of the decisive battles of
the world from Marathon to the
Marine, did the total of killed and
wounded exceed the number that au-
tomobiles accounted for in the United
States in 1920.
Twelve thousand killed and a mil
lion and half persons injured-whtt
n price to paw for recklessnessl In ad-
dition, the Insurance Press reports that
the economic losses resulting from mo-
tor car accidents amounted to more
than billion dollars.
War could be little worse. More
over. war may have some justification.
Automobile accidents have not. There
are only two kinds, an expert says,
that are excussble. One is ''infrequent,
unavoidable skids"; the other is the
sudden breaking of some vital part ot
a machine. But such breaks are un-
common, now that motor car construe-
ton has become a science.
: All other accidents are due to down
right carelessness, disregard for the
rights and safety of fellow motorists
and similar causes with which drivers
and nondriyers are familiar. They ae-
count for the wasteful lose of life, The
crippling and injuring in one year OF
six times as many persons as there
are in Providence and the destruction
Of property that seems trifiing when
each loss is looked at separately, but
that appals when the aggregate
amount is scanned.

every motorist di dhis duty by showing
a full measure of caution whenever
he ventured on the highway Until

bile must carry the stigma of being an

Manager Mullen's new shortstop, IL

landed him the berth. 1t is likely
h a he will again try out for the

GERMANTOWN
HERE SATURDAY
Local Y. N. c. A. Volley Ball
Team Confident of Success
Against Eastern Champs.

Despite the fact that their oppo-
hents have never been defeated
during the years they have appeared
in uniform of the Germantown (Pa.)
Y. NJ. c.. A. volley ball team, the
Perth Amboy team is confident of
holding its own with the acknowl-
edged eastern champions tomorrow
night at the local "Y" gym. 1t has
been with difficulty hat the crack
Germantown team has been persua-
ded to come to Perth Amboy and
the games promise to give those who
witness them a new idea as to how
volley ball can be played.
Capt. George W. Sharp. Jr., has
ut last decided upon six men whom
he believed can be depended upon
to turn the tables on the Pennsyl-
vania team, and this sextette is be-
ing given its final practice games
this week. A special practice will
be held at 4:45 o'clock this after
noon. The final get-together of the
Amboy team prior to the match
games will be tomorrow night. The
six men who will comprise Amboy's
lineup, including Capt. Sharp, are
Herbert Rankin, Christian Nielsen,
Ell johnson, George Dover and Gill
bert Peakes.
Some, of the results of games
WHICH the 1aSt VOlley-
ers have won follow: Pottstown, TO-
0; Camden, So; Allentown, 81;
Hazelton, 100; Lancaster, 3D.;
Budd, SO; Central "Y" of Philadel-
phi. Al: Marajunk, 80; Southwest
"Y" of Philadelphia, SO. The Ger
mantown team was in Railway on
Washington's Birthday but owing to
the bad condition Of the roads at
that time it was impossible to get
them to Perth Amboy for a series of
games. 1t won the Railway round
robin" tourney, defeating the best
teams in New Jersey. New York and
Connecticut.
Perth Amboy al boast of a rec
ord almost as good as that of the
Germantown team. The present AR
sity has not been defeated this year
and lost but one match last year,
that being as a. result of their being
handicapped with one man missing
from their lineup. 1t has been i'm
possible to get games in New Jersey
owing to the rep" which the AM
boy team has made for itself. Rah-
way defeated in that place but would
never come back for a return game.
The same is rue of other teams in
the northern part of Jersey.
Tickets are selling fast for Satur-
day nights match, scheduled to start
at $3.50 and the biggest crowd that
has ever witnessed a match of this
kind is expected.
