While the English cavaliers and
roundheads were fighting their
civil war across the channel, King
Louis XIV was ruling over an
ever-growing Paris.
Louis had delusions of grandeur
like no monarch before him. He
called himself the Sun King and
declared himself to be the state.
Those were the great days of
Fontainbleau and Versailles, when
all mobiles had to live at court to
reflect the Sun Kings splendor
with their own extravagant dis
play.
Contemporary records show that
at this time Paris had $4,000
houses for its half million inhab-
itants.
The first cafe. the Procope, was
founded in 1889, and soon there
were 600 more OF one of the most
characteristic features of Paris
life.
Under the next King, Louis XIV,
city planning really took strides.
The streets already had names,
but some one now thought of
numbering the houses. Oil lamps
began to replace Pickering torches
for street lighting.
Seeds of Revolution
But life was still hazardous for
most Parisians. Coaches of rich
aristocrats raced through the mar
row streets. spattering pedestrians
and forcing them to run for their
lives. The Partisan pedestrian still
has to prove himself a dozen times
daily as the most nimble in the
world.
At that time, too. Paris was
getting Its first reputation as q

Is the Krupp Case Part of the Eost-West StruqqIe?

The long effort to redeem Ger
many for the West has been
sharply dramatized by the latest
act of leniency by United States
occupation authorities.
The freeing of Alfred Krupp,
Nazi steel magnate, and clemency
toward other war criminals, in
cluding the SIS participants of the
Malmedy massacres. reveal at a
glimpse the distance Germany
has Travelled as a former enemy.
Officially, of course, the leniency
is based on a legal review of the
cases which presumably adjudged
the sentences as too severe and
made in the heat Of postwar pas
sions.
But it represents, competent
sources agree privately. efforts to
remove all sore spots in relations
with the Germans. The war
crimes trials have been bitterly
resented in Germany.
United States High Commits
sioner John j. McCloy has been
extremely active in efforts to
bring the Germans along In
Europe's rearmament program
and was undoubtedly mindful Of
the chance to ease the problem.
But officials here stoutly deny

Guiding the bulk of the Krupp
works. So another sore point
could be eliminated. More con-
trolls were relaxed.
These actions were taken quite
apart from the study of the war
crimes trials which were under
review by legal review board SET
up In 1949.
Basis for Decisions
1t was the findings of that
board upon which McCloy based
his decisions. But they were
made in the context of this coun-
try's attitudes toward Germany's S
role in rearmament and toward
building a friendly atmosphere
for Germany's participation.
AS for the restoration of
Krupp's property rights which
were confiscated at Nuremberg in
an order reversed by McCloy, no
hard explanation is available
here.
officials say Krupp will prob
ably be compensated when his
properties are finally broken up
into smaller firms under decen-
tralization laws.
But that may depend. they say,
upon the German courts.

that the clemency for Krupp
whose war plants powered the
Nazi war machine. and the others
was directly related to the defense
program.
It is pointed out that reviews OF
the war trials were set in motion
long before plans to use German
manpower in a European army
were formulated.
Background Traced
1T was a conjunction Of cir
cumstances which the Com
munists will probably attempt to
exploit to the hilt," one official
said.
In the background of this lat
est development is the fact that
Germany has become a prize in
the East-West struggle.
Even before the Russians
showed they had no intention of
cooperating toward peace
treaty with Germany. the let's
not be too beastly with the Ger
mans" attitude was prevalent in
several quarters.
Some of 1t came from those
who felt the war crimes had set
a bad precedent. particularly

World War I saw Paris the gay
leave center for American and
other Allied troops, who snatched
a few hours from the nightmare
horror of the trenches. Life was
lived frenziedly and most people
managed to ignore the Zeppelins
which glided overhead on moon
lit nights and the irregular crump
of the shells from the German
big Bertha" firing from more
than 80 miles away.
The Second World War was
very different. This time Paris
was soon a sullen, defeated city
where people lived in scarcity and
hate, strictly blacked-out.
The day of liberation dawned
on August 25. 1914. Long hidden
tricolor flags blossomed. the blue
capped gendarmes rose in revolt
Paris responded to the crack OF
pistol shots. the chatter of ma
chine guns. Today little plaques
sometimes with flowers, commem-
crate on almost every street the
spot where some Partisan fell
fighting for the freedom of his
city.
Another procession on the
Champs Elysees-but this time
there were Gen. Leelerc's tanks
and American GIs. Gen. Eisen-
hover arrived and set up his
headquarters at Versailles. A new
life began for Parisians.
The city lived strange days in
1914 and l945. The black market
f1ourished and American cigarettes
were favored currency. There
was no gasoline, hence little pubic
transport. Strange rickshaw- like
vehicles, seating two and pulled
by a strong youth on a bicycle,
replaced the taxicabs. But Paris
was free again and little else mat
tered.
Now. with conditions almost
completely normal, Parisians are
worried like every one else in
Europe that another war may
make a new page in their city's
stormy history.
But the plans for this years
celebrations are going ahead

tions are all being prepared. There

Many Attend Hearing
On Proposed
Organic Act for vi.

Many persons attended the
hearings conducted by Repre-
sentative Fred Crawford in
the District Court room last
night in connection with the
proposed new Organic Act for
the Virgin Islands,, drawn up
by the Department of the In
terror and introduced by Chair
man Murdoch of the Insular
Affairs Committee Of the
House of Representatives.
Despite the fact there was a
large gathering few took part
in. the discussions. Those who
did include Attorney William
Moorhead, Mrs. Hilda Eng
land, Hon. Ludwig Harrigan,
DR.. Brian Shorney, and Attor-
ney r. H. Amphlett Leader.
Attorney Leader mentioned
several important points that
the Congressman made notes
Of. He emphasized that the
new Act eliminates the post.of
Administrator for ST. Croix
and makes no provision Tor a
head of this Island. He pointed
to the fact that although the
Danish Government is poor in
comparison to the United
States of America, there was
a time when St. Thorn had a
Governor and St. Cloix not
only had It's oWn Governor but
alsota vice Governor, and
there 'weretless administrative
functions. He urged that there
must be some head, no matter
by what name it is called.
Continuing Mr.. Leader
pointed out that the Coloniol
Law of 1906 called for a Gov
ernor and a Dispatching Secre-
tary. 1t is a necessary office: #
ever it was necessary, it is
now.
There were many other per
tinent points brought up BY

where controls were placed on
the spending of the Internal
Revenue taxes, the attorney
recalled that it was said IS

 The unions agreed to withdraw demands for higher compensation to cover living expenses outside the camps if the contractors a- greed to join in demanding better camps.
