FRIDAY, AUGUST 1, 1919 GERMANS SEEK RUSS OUTLET Believe That Business Growth Will Be Heavy in That Di- rection; Goods Ready By CARL D. GROAT (United Press Staff Correspondent) BERLIN. (By Mail,)—Germany just now is striving hard to revive the slogan, “Business as usual,”” which plagued several nations dur- ing the war until they learned that “as usual” didn’t fit with war. With Germany at present, it is a strugefe between many conflicting elements not the least of which are decreased raw materials, rolling stock, markets—and an impaired la- bor supply due to war conditions, | lowered food, and industrial unre&t. | But while the government has been wrestling with -Spartacus and near- Spartacus troubles; with strikes; Political agitation; new constitutions and so on, German business men have been casting about to get back to work and trade. The first concrete evidence of this has just come to light with the re- port that a business men’s commis- sion has been making a three week: investigation in Russia with a view to finding an outlet for German pro- ducts in) that war-wearied land. While much of Russia is in chaos, the business men were reported to feel that there is a favorable out-|\ look for them in that country. Germany has considerable chinery which she can export big electrical supply house, a ing to information, has sufficient products on hand for nearly a year to come. In this field, Germany has been going onward and will soon be in the market to do business with ma- One rd- other nations. Before the war, she could export many artic to for eign markets and undersell hom? products. This probably will be rather more difficult hereafter, be- cause of limitation of coal and materials, and a constantly increas- ing cost of labor due to constantly recurring strikes and a _ constant ywrowth of the socialization process. One factor overlooked in general discussions of German business pros- pects is her supply of potash. This} supply is unaffected by the peace treaty; and the world is clamoring ing for this for fertilizer purposes. And Germany ean get this product out at only slight increased cost pver her previous price, while, et the same time, she can demand more marks for it than before in view of the lowered value of the mark, In this way, she stands to gain consid- erably from this one source alone. This business shoyld prove vast again within a short time, thus en- abling the country to obtain credits for materials from foreign coun- tries. German business foresees that it will be under a vast load for a long period of years, due to war debts and indemnity taxes. But the aver age German business man is pre pared to go at his task anew if-he can get a stable labor market and a prospect of profiting later on. Socialization, however. may up- set many of their plans, for there can be no question that there is a constantly increasing trend toward socialization of many lines of busf- ness. Until the time comes, however. in which business is a state affair, the German business man intends to go after fresh trade as evidenced By Nhis freshly completed Russian probe. Germany believes that it can} reach out to the east for business, and this move shows that there is where the trend is first going to be.| It was reported that Russia could} undoubtedly give some agricultural} products, particularly eastern Rus: sian cotton, in return for manufa tured goods. This, however, will probably depend largely on transpor-| tation facilities which at present ap-)| pear to be in bad shape. | FORMER PASTOR'S DEATH | VERY SUDDEN; REMAINS INTERRED IN.

Dinner jackets of Today Telephone Pro- perties Are Returned After a year of Federal Control the telephone property, which makes up the Bell Telephone System, is today returned to its owners by the United States Government. While the property has been properly maintained, it is not the same property which the Government took over on August 1, 1918. Itis not as adequate for its job or as well manned as it was; that it is not is in no way the fault of Federal Control which has been eminently fair. It is due to causes for which neither the Government nor the companies are to blame. A year ago we were at war, Labor and material needed for both telephone operation and construction were turned to mili- tary uses. Some materials were so vital to the carrying on of the war that even the work of providing telephone facilities for the Government was retarded and no part of them could be spared for commercial telephone purposes. re Read the Tribune want ads.

Thousands of telephone men were already at the battle- front. Thousands more were under arms, and still telephone experts and skilled operators went into the service of the Gov- ernment and contributory industries by the tens of thousands. Market Quotations.

The de- mands for telephone service passed all former records, To replace exhausted reserves which had been carried for just such purposes and to replace the skilled forces to meet this unprecedented emergency there began a rush for construction, for readjustment, for high pressure repairs, for feverish exten- sions. All these must be continued with increasing effort.
