vienna IS AGAIN
CITY OF CAYETY
People Are FashionabIy Dressed
and Spend Money Freely
in Luxury Shops.
COCO FOOD IS NOW PLENTIFUL
White Bread and Fancy Dainties Seen
Everywhere, but the Finances OF
the State Are in a Chaotic
Condition.

/ Vienna. = Finance and economics
seem to have parted company in Aus
] tria.
With its money situation cha0tlc,
| there is at the same time a generally
acknowledged betterment of conditions
of living.
Travellers revisiting Vienna say they
do not recognize the city of year ago.
The mass of the people are better
dressed, and more plentiful food is
shown in their healthy appearance.
The green and sallOw faces have diSap-
peared, and on the whole the Viennese
are nearly back to normal as far as
external evidence goes.
Paris can hardly show q more fash
iOnably gOwned crowd of women than
that which turns out for the ring prom
enade in the afternoon or thrOngs the
high-class shopping district in the
mornings.
Shops Display Luxuries.
The shop display of luxurious wares
of every description increases until the
Arbeiter Zeitung says it exceeds Wen
mas best days of before the war. The
same newspaper admits there is steady
progress and betterment in business
and general conditions.
The famous delicateSSen shops are
reOpening with almost their Old-time
excellence. The windows are filed
with fancy dainties for which the city
was noted canned stuffs of the finest
foreign makes are to be bought, Ameri-
can crackers and biscuits are common
Il, che
are restocked, and while last winter
pound of sweets was virtually unpro-
durable the finest fresh bonbons now
are to be had in any quantity.
White bread is served in nearly ev-
cry restaurant, and the bakery win
dows again display the famous Vienna
pastries and cakes. In the poorer dis
tricts even the butcher shops and gro
Gerry stores reflect the same condition.
Turning TO finances. the current
statement of the Austro-Hungarian
bank speaks for it. There are ut the
moment 45,OOO,OOO,OO crowns in circu-
lation and 4,OOOOOO,OOO outstanding
treasury notes issued to the banks for
discount. But this cheap money is
plentiful.
Everyone Is Spending.
Everyone seems to have it and to be
spending it. Enormously advanced
prices for everything seem not to have
affected the volume of business.
Printing presses are now turning out
about 5000, 100000 crowns month
to meet the government expenses. The
current budget shows deficit of
$4,000, 100000 crowns. The wealth levy
has produced thus far about 100000
600 crowns, half of which was paid in
war bonds, leaving enough cash from
this source to meet about one months
running expenses for the government.
Through it's spokesman and newspa-
pers the government is urging the need
of haste in the proposed credit plan
OF the League of Nations. by which
enough foreign capital is sought to es
tablish bank of issue whose new cur
rency on q gold basis is expected grad
ually to stabilize the value of the pres
ent crown.

American Chorus
Girls Challenge
French Rivals
BY EDWIN W. HULLINGER

BY EDWIN W. HULLINGER
(United Press Staff Correspondent
PARIS, April 25. - The American
chorus girl, whose beauty and grace
full dancing have made her the envy
of stage folk throughout the world, is
TO have a chance TO measure up
against the Partisan stage beauty
for the first time as a permanent
drawing card for Partisan theatre
crowds.
An all-Ameriean musical comedy
house, putting on exclusively Amer
lean produced and American executed
shows, will be open d in Paris soon
under the same mana cement as the
Folies Bergeres. Paris Winter Gar
den.
The Theatre Apollo. on rue Clichy,
has been leased for this purpose and
performances will begin in the near
I future. The theatre Apollo is one
Of the larger and popular Partisan
playhouses. II will be remembered
by many American doughboys as thf
Bal Apollo. for il was converted in
to Dansant after the. armistice.
II may also be remembered on ac-
count of freak happening during
bombardment, when bomb droO-
ped through the roof during per
Torrance, landed in tho deep cush-
ions of a fauteuil and nestled there
quietly without going OF or injur-
ing a soul,
This will be the first time an all
American house has tried to COM
pete with French theatres in their
own field on a permanent basis.
ExpOnents of the American stage
predict an immense success for the
venture. Nearly everyone who has
had opportunity to compare the
American chorus with It's European
stage equivalent has been struck
with the superiority OF the former.
American chorus girls dance much
better collectively and probably quite
as well individually and they are
very far from being inferior In pep"
and vivaclty, for which the French
stage beauty Is renowned.
French chorus girls frequently arc
graceful as individuals. but they do
not know how to dance together.
They lack that collective unity III
movement which has made American
chorus and drill teams famous the
world over. Viewed from the "a.
lerles the average Partisan chorus
resembles an American caste in N
early rehearsal, before the director = i
sharp tongue has lashed the kinks
ont of the beauty lineup and forced
A stage-full of dancers to move like
one person.
The American colony in Paris Is
iubilant at the prospect of having
chance once more to slip into a first
row seat for an evening feast OF real
American beauty and song.
