WORLD HES|TATES
ON RECOVERY ROAD.
Irregular Trend Apparent in

Nations.

which it showed improvement as
compared with the same month of
the previous year.
It also was significant that in 1888,
for the first time since 1929, the
we'll known seasonal improvement"
reappeared. This seasonal movement
is given credit for the improvement
manifested in the last few months
Of 1888 and also is being blamed for
the decreases apparent in January
and February returns of this year.
Normally, it appears, is returning,
while at the same time trade Is
remaining very low and very re-
stricted levels.
Another striking fact which
emerges from the dry mass of sta
tistics is that great changes have
taken place not only in the distribu-
tion OF trade between different coun-
tries, but in the nature of the goods
now being exchanged. Manufactured
goods have suffered severely while raw
materials-cotton, wool. iron, etc
and foodstuffs, have been better able
to resist the crisis. Britain and
Japan, particularly, have suffered in
this respect since they export their
goods to countries with favorable
industrial development. The most
significant signs of recovery in 1888
come from countries whose economic
development is Complementary. for

Gold Prices Ease.
While it Is difficult to- give any
clear indication as to the present
tendency Of gold prices and volume
of trade, in general gold prices show
an inclination to drop. and paper
prices, at least in the United States
of America, to rise but slowly, u
at all.
Some raw materials-wool, for
example q rise in gold
prices at the end Of 1888, but today
prices show no tendency to move and
remain extremely low, says the sur
vey, adding that "it is impossible to
foresee what will happen in the next
few months"

of trade showed increases in some
countries in certain special cases.
Britain's importation Of raw materials
wool, timber, cotton, etc.-showed
gains of from per cent to so per
cent, but exports increased on an
average of only 3 per cent, as COM
pared with 1882. The home market
it appears absorbed the bulk OF the
increased production
While studiously avoiding con-
troversial political issues the leagues
survey cannot refrain from touching
upon war debts. It points out that
in view of the fact that international
exchange of goods has decreased at
least so per cent in gold value since
1929. the payments of war debts, al
ready burdensome at that time, has
become increasingly difficult. Only
with resumption of trade-and trans
fer of credits-can payment be re-
sumed in many cases.

TINE Governors Palace and gar
dens, which have been recon-
structed as one of the major
Il undertakings in the reStora-
ton of Colonial Williamsburg
by John D. Rockefeller, jr., will be
opened to the public tomorrow. The
palace and its dependencies are not as
yet completely furnished, nor is the
landscaping of its gardens complete.
but the work has progressed sufficient
ly tor the buildings and grounds to
be viewed in their present advanced
stage of reconstruction.
With the reconstructed Capitol,
which was opened as an exhibition
building two months ago, the palace
ranks as the largest of all the i'm
portant eighteenth century buildings
that have been restored or recon-
structed here. Its completion and
the restoration of Duke of Gloucester
street with the undergrounding of
wires and the installation of a special
system of street lighting throughout
the Colonial area will mark the con-
clusion of the major projects in the
present program of restoration.
Rebuilt on Old Foundations.
The Governors Palace has been re-
built On the foundations of the orig
inal building at the head of Palace
Green In the eighteenth century it
was the official residence of the royal
Governors of the Virginia Colony over
a period of nearly rs years. Some

which these representatives of the
English crown lived and established

these are live oak, weeping willow

Judas tree, paper mulberry, the So
called mimoSa. native magnolias, flow
ering dogwood, wild apple, holly, and
number of native ground-covering
plants.
In the various divisions of the
Palace gardens, box, native red cedar
and crepe myrtle have been used ex-
tensively. Roses will be planted In
the beds with azaleas and other flow
ering plants of an early period. Fruit
trees and native vines, including
wisteria will be trained on the garden
walls. Throughout the rest of the
garden the towering shrubbery and
herbaceous plants are those that were
used in the colonial period.
The northwest section of the gar
den area is the cemetery in which
were found the remains of 158 Rev.
olutionary soldiers who died in the
Palace when it was used as a hospi-
tai. Their remains rest there un-
disturbed beneath a simple lawn in

SUIT TO ACQUIRE
SINGERS CAR FILED
Repairman Alleges Gene Austin
Left Damaged Truck and
Has Not Paid Bill.

A suit to impress lien on an Austin
truck owned by Gene Austin, well
known singer and recording artist.
partly to cover a repair and storage
bill, was filed in District Supreme
Court yesterday by Jack Pry. who
conducts an automobile repair shop at
1924 Fourteenth street. Pry told the
court Austin drove here in the truck
for publicity purposes and appeared at
a theater last December The truck
was involved in an accident and
placed in Pry's garage for repairs
which cost S187.
1t is said in the suit that Austin
did not return for the car and that
the storage bill since that time has
amounted to about $66. The value of
the car is estimated at only $3.50.
Pry states he thinks Austin is in
California making movie now. The
suit was filed through Attorneys
George P. Locker and Ormond
Nichols.

VETERAN OFFICERS
TO Be DECORATED
Col. Porter and Col. BearSS
Will Get Medal of
Honor.

Two veteran officers of the Marine
Corps will receive this Government S
highest award for valor-the Congress
sional Medal of Honor-from the
hands of President Roosevelt at the
White House Wednesday morning at

They are Col. David D. Porter, re-
Gently ordered to duty in this city,
and Col. Hiram I. BearSs, retired, now
living in New York City.
Col. Porter is native of Washing
ton and comes of a distinguished
fighting line. His great-grandfathe
Commodore David Porter, was prom
inent in the War of 1912 and against
the Tripoli pirates. His grandfather
was an admiral in the Navy and
served in the Civil War. His father,
the late Lieut.. Col. Carlisle P. Porter
OF the Marine Corps, served his coun-
try for 80 years.
The decoration will go to Col. Por-
ter in recognition of an act of bravery
October g. 1899, at the battle of Nova
leta Province of Cavite, Philippine
Islands, during the insurrection The
then young officer stood on the para
pet of the captured Philippine
trenches in the face of enemy fire and
led his men in an assault, which re-
suited in the rout of the foe He is
now assistant adjutant and inspector
of the Marine Corps.
Col. Bearss has seen active service
in the Far East, Central America, the
West Indies, and France. He was

Accompanying Houses Restored.
Among the dependencies that may
be seen are the two flanking build
ings and kitchen containing a FAM
GUS collection of old kitchen utensils
and equipment, the scullery, laun-
dry, smoke house, salt house, and the
quarter.
In re-establishing the extensive
gardens, great care has been taken
to follow colonial Virginia garden pre-
cedent where there was no evidence
of what existed here originally.
Wherever this has been lacking. Eng
lish precedent of the same period has
been followed by reason of the close
analogy between English and Virginia
garden design at this time.
The canal, or fish pond, and ter
races that lead to it from the gar
dens west of the palace were found
in such condition that they could be
accurately rebuilt. Excavations re-
vealed the remains of the brick steps
which descended these terraces. The
foundations of many of the walls
surrounding the gardens also were
uncovered. Steps, paths, foundations
Of outbuildings, drains and paved
areas were located by other excava-
tions and the evidence thus revealed
was utilized as a guide to accurate
reconstruction.
The area near the canal has been
planted with varieties of trees and
shrubs that were used in Virginia

unquestionably the precursor Of the
great Virginia houses that date from
the first half of the eighteenth CEN

Gov. Spotswood the elaborate gar
dens with terraces, canal or fish pond
and an extensive park were among
the conspicuous features recorded by
travellers who visited the capital of
the colony The original palace was
destroyed by fire in 1881 after having
been used as hospital for American
soldiers during the siege of Yorktown.
The Palace, as it has been recon-
structed, includes the ballroom wing
in which there is supper room

the middle Eighteenth Century and
