WAR VETERANS French President Expresses Admiration to American Legion Delegation. By the Aseociated Press. PARIS, August 27.—President Mil- lerand today received the visiting Rambouillet. Grouping the visitors couritry’s faith in America and of his hope for peace, justice and co- operation throughout the world. This reception was the final cere- mony of the visit of the legionnaires to France, which has covered seven- teen days given over to travel and official ceremonies of welcome. They will leave for Belgium tomorrow. Policemen, gendarmes and firemen of the city of Paris, to the number of 4,500, were reviewed this morning by Prefect of Police Leullier, the review being ordered in honor of the visiting mem- bers of the American Legion. The It was the first occasion in the history of Paris that such a large number of the guardians of the peace in the:French capital had been assembled in one body. The-program was carried out by Prefect Leullier despite numerous anonymous warn- ings that burglars and other la breakers would seize upon the hour for the parade as a favorable op- portunity for crime. . Maj. Flood of the New York police force presented Prefect Leullier with a flag given by New York policemen. ‘The firemen entertained the visi- tors by setting fire to a small wooden cottage near their barracks and pro- ceeding to fight the flames. Under cover of a “water barrage” the French fire fighters advanoed on the burning building and rescued some of their comrades who had been placed inside. The Americans com mented very favorably on the agility and efficiency displayedl during these maneuvers by the firemen. Five Americans Decorated. Five Americans received the legion of honor decoration at_an official luncheon _given by Minister of Pensions Maginot, representing the French government. Marshal Foch presented the insignida of commander of the legion of honor to Franklin D'Oller of Philadelphia, former na- tional commander of the American T.egion, and former Commander Drake of the Paris post of the legion. Col. Henry D. Lindsley of Dailas., Tex., past national com- mander. and Col. M. J.

BERLIN, Germany, August 27.— Germany has recovered from the ill effects of the hunger blockade and as a result the ban on fat men has been litted. There is again plenty of food and even more to drink at the food- 31°| stuffs exhibition, which opened today in Frankfort, shows. Everything, in the way of delicatessen, of which the most exacting could dream is amply represented at the show. “But the outstanding feature of the exhibition is the abundance of liquor,” says a newspaper dispatch. “Booze of every shape, form and taste is dis- played, including German made whis- kies” and gins. ®here are scores of different _brands of German cham- pagnes. But the prices are high and if one should gauge Germany’s wealth by the liquor display one would think that the country was o rich that they did not knew what to do with their money but to throw it away in in- toxicdnts. “Juet the same, it is quite cheering to realize that the fatherland is doing so well again that those who have young ing the war and which works as hard as France works is neither nervous nor agitated. It is a na- tion which desires justice; nothing more, nothing less. Of course, it must be admitted it will take decades to complete the reconstruction and _ rehabilitation of France if Germany, the con- quered aggressor in the war, is permitted to ignore and evade her obligations, now 0 far in arrears. Taking a further illuatration from a comparison of the years 1913 and 1920, France lost between that time by war deiths and war dis- ablement two and one half million Frenchmen. Yet, thus weakened, France carries the following bur- Former French High Cor:missloner to America. By Cable to The Star. PARIS, August 27.—David Llovd George: called France nervous.

Despite all this we are working to meet our obligations and will do so despite the fact that our debt, which was only 35,000,000,000 francs in 1913, has increased to 265,060,000,000 francs at par, or 300,000,000,000 if our foreign debt i figured at current éxchange. This is a deby for France of be- tween ,000,000,000 and $60,000,- per cent; railroad ton miles, 29 per cent. Commerce Shows Improvement. General commerce, as compared with pre-war times, shows an fin- provement of 278 per cent in France proper, and 149 per cent in the colonies. Of course, the higher prices prevailing today must be taken Into consideration with these latter figures. At the same time France !s work- ing hard to restore order to her finances, upset by the war.
