Unless funds are provided for work
to begin Immediately it is reported that
the whole Versailles Chateau Will be-
come a ruin. A cry of alarm has been
raised by Henri Lapauze. member of
the Academy of Sciences and curator
that the famous palace. the statues. the
Railways and even the fountains are
crumbllng into dust. The only things
about the palace safe and sound are
the gilied entrance gates, reconstructed
a few years ago.
Immediately beyond the gates the
famous groups OF statues, one repre-
senting Abundance and the other Peace,
have reached such 2 stage that the
stones are falling to pieces. Inside
ruin threatens the famous chapel where,
apart from the dsintegration OF the
stonework, several stained glass windows
are broken and the floor boards worn so
that Gaping holes confront visitors.
In the gardens the drains no longer
carry away the water which becomes
foul smelling through stagnation. Also
the Trianon Is unprotected in case OF
fire. The bronze and lead statues are
cracked and even the grass has been
worn away In many parts. 1t Is esti-
mated by NJ. Lapauze that 10000, 900
francs will be required to restore the
palace completely. He suggests that the
Government aid the restoration and
that the entry fee for visitors be
doubled.

Miss Aleen Crust is the first woman
veterinary surgeon in the United King

her diploma from the Royal College of
Veterinary Surgeons she has been prac-

she announced that she had evolved all

London. Dec. 80.
Princess Mary and Viscount Lascelles
took up their residence In Goldsborough
Hall this week after the fine Eliza
bethan mansion near Knaresborough.
Yorkshire, had been thoroughly restored.
There have been restorations before this,
but Princess Mary. who inherits her
mothers good housekeeping habits, was
not at all satisfied.
Certain of the work she characterized
as sheer vandalism. such as cutting off
a fine Elizabethan window from one Of
the principal rooms in order to make a
lavatory. Therefore the early nineteenth
century plumbing was rooted out, the
window was restored, and the room. with
its notable Jacobean moulded plasters
and frieze. will become the Princess's
private sitting room.
The process of restoring has been go
Ing on for six months. and the new
chatelaine has given lavish orders not
only to London antique dealers but to
modern interior decorators. and there
will be many parts of the old house
which will show the best developments
of modern furnishing. with bright colors,
deep upholstery and beautiful fabrics.
One of the first things the Princess
noticed was the lack of corridors. II
was necessary to pass through several
other bedrooms in order to reach the
rooms at the end of each wing. That
has now been remedied. The house was
supposedly modernized several years ago
when two bathrooms were installed. II
now has ten, including several In the
servants quarters.
One of the interesting bits OF restora-
tion was the building of bedrooms over
the great Elizabethan kitchen. Which Is
one OF the houses architectural gems.
1t was successfully accomplished with
out disturbing the ancient beams.
Among the orders given TO modern
decorators there was included the furni-
ture and appliances for one of the most
modern nurseries in England. That Is a
field in which the Princess has a'stin-
guished herself. for during the war sHe
trained as nurse In n children's hos
pital and secured a certificate. She still
keeps in close touch with the institution.
Moreover, II is expected that the new
nursery will be occupied before many
weeks go by.

PARIS RUNS SHORT
OF BURIAL GROUND
Suggestion That Long Term
Concessions Be Reduced

Paris, Dec. 30.
Paris Is faced by a shortage Of burial
grounds The prefect of the Depart
ment of the Seine has issued a warning
In which he says that every cemetery
in Paris Is filed to capacity and that
those outside Paris are filling up so
rapidly that steps must be taken imme-
diately to solve the problem.
Attempts have been made to find a
new burial ground around the city, but
the only likely place is some thirty
kilometers away. When suburb is
approached with the suggestion that a
cemetery be established in their terri
tory the idea Is Immediately rejected by
the local authorities.
The question has become so important
that the Municipal Council has been
asked to find a remedy. One suggestion
has met with opposition from funeral
directors and monument makers. 1t was
suggested that the present system of
granting land concessions for burial
purposes for a period of 100 years be
shortened to fifty years. The monu-
ment makers objected on the ground
that they depend on long concessions to
earn living. as only families who have
taken out long concessions with the idea
of burying all their relatives in one plot
order expensive tombs. which they ex-
pect to last for many years. If the
period Is reduced to fifty years, they
argue. these families will not think II
worth while to erect costly monuments.
II is estimated by the prefecture that
more than so per cent. of the tonnbs In
Paris cemeteries which are more than
a hundred years old are In dilapidated
condition.

Although the Ministry Of Labor index
figure shows a slight fall In the cost OF
living. with the rising exchange value
of sterling, It Is not reflected In the liv-
ing costs Of those above the daily wage
level. Rentals in respectable though not
fashionable residential districts still re-
main at the war level. especially fur
nished houses and fats. Restaurant
prices have not dropped and restaura-
teurs and hotel men say there is no
prospect of their dropping, because Of
wages remaining high.

Paris. Dec. so.
According to the tax collectors fig.
ures Franco Is not a country where
large personal fortunes exist. In the
last year out Of a total population of
80. 100000 only a little moro than 500.
900 declared their income to be moro
than 10000 francs ($1.5oo) a year.
Private fortunes In France are SO distrib-
uted over the country that while in the
aggregate they make a big total they
prove that there are few very rich
people.
At least. this is ono of the reasons
given to Parliament by the Minister of
Finance to show that the taxation of in
comes in France Is not as productive
as in England and America. The re-
turns of 100000 taxpayers show that
their incomes do not reach even 10000
francs (s750) annually. In the whole
country there are only 100000 tax
payers who say their income Is any
where from 10000 to 100000 francs
These, 1t Is estimated, have an average
income Of $4,000 francs (s4,500). Only
10000 can boast of incomes ranging
from 100000 to 100000 francs There
are only 1877 who enjoy an income OF.
moro than 100000 francs (s75.O00)
while SAL claim to have an income OF
more than 100000 francs (s37,500).
These figures seem to disprove the
postwar talk of the immense fortunes
made by men dealing in army supplies.
The tax returns show that the majority
of those who during the war supplied
guns. ammunition. automobiles. airplanes
or food to the Allies now have COM
paratively small income, most of them
declaring their incomes to be between
10000 and 10000 francs year. Many
in this class of taxpayers. being the
heads OF large families, often escape
with light taxation.
The 1877 persons with incomes of
100000 or more declared a combined
income Of 735.000.000 francs (s56,125,-
000), of which only about 600, 200, 900
(S45,000,000) is taxable, the remainder
being exempt either because OF large
families or BECAUSE 1t has been proved
that the money was spent for building
operations, law passed Immediately
after the war granting tax exemption
to persons who undertook building OPP
erations or In any way Improved their
residences or business buildings. Big
banks and land owners seized this op-
portunity,' but while they thus escaped
the tax collector they have not remedied
the housing shortage in France, and this
has aroused the ire of the workingmen.
who bitterly complain that while they
have to pay high rent for small and
sometimes unsanitary dwellings no way
has been given them to avoid the tax
collector.
