"1 'GERMAN SEA TRADE . GROWING RAPIDLY | Remarkable Recovery of Nation } Puts Her Once More Near [, Leaders in Shipping. * LONDON., May 31.—Germany has once more become a competitor in the sca-carrying trade of the world, says | Archibald Hurd, an authority on mari- time matters, in commenting upon the recent defeat in Congress of President Harding’s vhip subsidy legislation. “The recovery of that countr says Mr. Hurd, “is one of the most remarkable, if the least generally recognized, events of the last four years. “When the war broke out,” continues this writer, “Germany possessed more than 5,000,000 tons of shiping. She ranked as the second greatest sea- carrying power in the world, and had created an efficient organization in every foreign port for dealing with and cargoes. Under the Versailles tre #he was compelled to surrender \!rlu.\!l\ ‘all_her sea-going ships, and was left with only about 400,000 tons of steam tonnage. Today, as the result of the thrift and industry of her workers, she possesses u merchant fleet of about 2 500,000 tons, and by the end of the pre ent year will own about 3,000,000 tons. Build Cheaply. “The Germans have built a great vol- ume of new tonnage at very cheap rates and they have bought, and are still buy- ing, second-hand tonnage in England and the United States and are paying cash for it. There is no country east, ‘west or south which is not now visited by German ships, and month by month the number of vessels employed at sea is being steadily increased. “There has been little unemployment | in Germany since peace was signed. The | whole population, numbering 70,000,000, | has been hard at work, laboring rule strenucusly for long hours and z } low wages. They have been creating an immense amount of wealth, and that wealth has not been exported to any considerable extent. In the main Ger- many has been re-equipping all her in- dustries, and is now probably the most efficient’_manufacturing country in the world. Her shipowners, industrial mag- Mates and great working population have built up once more a merchant fleet to carry the vast products of the country 1o all the markets of the world.

British Seeking To Locate Bones Of Pocahontas i By the Associated Press. ' GRAVESEND, England, May 31. —Excavations were begun in the graveyard of St. George's Church yesterday in an endeavor to locate the bones of the Indian Princess Pocahontas, who, according to tradition, was buried there in 1617. Amid great secrecy. in the pres- ence of ‘the rector of the church, Canon Gedge, Dr. Phillip Franklin and James Van Alen Shields, repre- senting the English-speaking union, und Capt. Page Gaston and W. P. Pycraft, acting on behalf of the anthropological department of the British Museum, a grave to which a number of bodies had been moved when the original church was burned some years ago was opened. It was thought the body of Pocahontas might have been one of those moved. Thirty skele- | tons were found, but none of them | identified as that of Poca- | s, aad the belief prevails that her remains still rest in a grave beneath the chancel of the new church As search beneath the chancel of the church will require the demoli- tion of a part of the building, a permit will have to be obtained from the home secretary.
