EXPECT AMERICANS
 TO REPLENISK COFFERS

BERLIN, July 31.-A hundred thou sand Americans are expected to visit Germany this summer. season. They may improve the exchange situation by spending $4O,OOO,OOO while thay are here. says the Acht Uhr Blatt
 It is estimated that if every travel CT only stays in Germany for four weeks, spending $4O0 during this time, as an average, twelve billion paper marks will flow into the empty pock- cts of those Germans that get in touch with them as hotel keepers, dealer, store keepers. This will enahle the German government to buy more for eign stocks and thus improve the gen eral exchange situation.
 The expenses of Americans coming over here are figured out as including a hundred dollars for personal com forts, hundred dollars for purchases, and two hundred dollars for the pass age back to the States.
 The German shipping agencies. fn- cluding the Hamburg American Line and the North German Lloyd, an nounce that all available barths have been booked for American citizens on all liners bound to Hamburg and Bremen during the summer months. These liners will be able to carry about 5000 first and second-class pas sengers within a week, so that 33,O00 visitors are expected to flood Ger many within eleven weeks. This is very low figure, as it represents min irun -Iyw, II ,s' n'- ,4 4 -rsv
 The rest, up to a hundred thousand passengers, booked berths on French, British and even Scandinavian liners and will reach Central Europe, via Holland, France and Denmark.
 Reports from New York state that practically all berths are "sold out for summer of 1922, thereby verifying the German estimates.
 "There is no reason to complain about this American invasion" con- cludes the Acht Uhr Blatt. "All these globe trotters will, of course, contrl- bute to increase the scarcity of goods of all kinds over here, but, on the other hand, they will make plenty or Germans happy through their pur- chases, as it is a well-known fact that Americans spend their money freely while travelling abroad, although Uncle Sam is fairly thrifty house. keeper at home"
