BRUSSELS.—(By mail.) — Belgium has made rapid progress toward in- dustrial recovery sihce the armistice largely owing to the fact that the coun- try has had no serious strikes, says M. Jaspar, minister of economic af- fairs. He estimates that the nation’s! industrial output has now attained per- haps 70 percent of its pre-war record and that its mines are producing as much coal as in the year before the ‘war. “About 70 percent of our material which was taken out by the Germans has been returned to us,” added M. Jaspar. “The money taken by the Ger- mans from the Belgium treasury has been returned but Belgium has thus far received no indemnity from Ger- many. “At the beginning of the armistice ae : 800,000 of our people were without The Shadow of Rosalie work.
