EDITOR SAYS ALLIES HURT BY GERMAN
 PREPARATIONS
Weisbaden Scheme of Pay ment in Goods Called Worse Than Cash Plan.

Berlin, Oct. 17.-fsThe more Ger many pays separations the worse it will be for the A1lies,' is the para doXical view held by the prominent 1ndustrialist and pubIicist Arnold Rechberg, in an article entitled What Versailles Cost the Entente,'' publish ed here by the Neue Berliner Zei- tung.
 Every gold mark which Germany pays the Allies in compliance with the clauses of the Versailles Treaty deprives the national wealth of France of from two to three francs and that of England of about 15-20 shillings. Therefore the Allies vic tory over Germany is a Pyrrhus vic story.
 ~@sSssWhen France gained Alsace and Lorraine it hoped to acquire the monopoly in potash production by ex- plotting the former German mines there. Today the German factories and mines in the remaining parts of about half the price of the French production all over the world in spite Of all restrictions on import into France and England.
 Exactly the same conditions pre- vail in the occupied Scar District in- dustries. The French intrdouced the franc standard there, much to their detriment, as the German industries in the Rhine land can do much cheap CT work on account of the low ex- change. Millions of francs are being lost by French firms in this way, and it is only a question of time that they will break down altogether. Hither- to the French government makes up for these private losses by means of public funds. but how long will that last. Sooner or later it will tell on the French budget.
 Things will become even worse when once the Wiesbaden scheme which provides repa2ations by means of delivery of goods is in full swing a wi %n eIo and the French will at last learn that they achieved the opposite results from what they expected they would bring about by their eXtraVagant de- mandS."
