The more cleverly a man writes the more suc- ful he is in stating the literal truth says cel pression. One might believe that Mr. past master of ‘language,” interpret ‘“iInterview' as a formal statement made to be given Kipling, intends to that what he said to Mrs. Sheriden, | and which she quotes or mentions were remarks which needed the con- | text to make his meaning plain. If so a broad statement of denial is proper. But the wonder comes as to what Mr Kipling did say to that interesting, clever woman, who has had such an interesting life ‘‘getting heads” in Russia that she might mould them in sculpture, and leading the grand march at the Tammany Hall ball in New York. Kipling, Lenine, the Bol- sheviki and Tammanyites all seem to interest her. But perhaps, after all, it does not matter so much whether Mr. Kipling said those things to her, as it what he will say to her when next they meet. Look out, Mrs. Sheriden; it would be terrible to be matter effusion from the poet's pen. Or pos- sibly you would not mind. KEEP CITY HALL OPEN Mayor Paonessa's suggestion, or order, that the offices in City Hall be kept open during the luncheon hour is a good one. There would be little object in commenting upon it except for the fact that it is the habit of many people to object to anything suggested as a change, and those ob- jectors have loud voices. It is hoped that the rule, already in effect, will be adhered to strictly. Some incon- | venience may be experienced in some | offices, but arrangements should be | made in spite of such temporary dis- comfort. | It is obvious that the offices in city hall are for the benefit'of the people | city paying their maintenance as places in which those whom they pay, the must work. Anything that tends to facilitate inter- course between the workers in those offices and the people who have busi- ness to transact there, should be en- city employes, will be heard,” {s as far as they have gone except to mention that a certain noted woman speaker will be present and that the state candldates will probably appear, The best part about this outing, of is the fact that the women have bought many tickets to it. This, we believe, s a good statement with which to close discussion of this out- ing. It, if anything, will bring the crowds. And the crowds will undoubt- edly have a good time, TILSON REPORTS GERMANY BUSTLES §ays That Country Is Now Hive of Industry New Haven, Sept. 15—Congress- man John Q. Tilson of this city re- cently returned from a trip of obser- vation and study in Belgium, France, Germany and Austria, has described to the Washington Post, the progress being made in rehabilitating the de- vasted portions of France and Bel- glum. “Belgium,” he sald, “is making more rapld progress in this direction than France, True, the problem f{s much greater in France than in Bel- glum, taking into account the relative size and population of the two coun- tries. Belgilum was quickly over- whelmed by the Germans in 1914, The bulk of her man-power was left be- hind and remained there during the war. Though a very brave, it was a comparatively small Belglan force that held the remaining fragments of their country. Spirit of Waiting in France. “The men of France, on the other hand, faced the enemy for more than four years and a staggering number of them were killed while defending their country against inva- slon. Then, too, it must be remem- bhered the war was fought largely on French soll, so that while Bel- gium suffered in spots, France suf- fered much more severely. A very great number of buildings in Belgium have been rebuflt, while in France the eves grow weary viewing the carefully piled heaps of stones or other material, once a habitation, but now marking only the spot where it is hoped a house will again arise. “Ao spirit of waiting hover over much of the country, and that which is awaited, it was sald, are the reparations which under the treaty Germany f{s called upon to pay. Chaotic Conditions in Austria. “In Austria,” continued Mr. Til- son, “the condition of the currency would seem to be enough to make the situation hopeless. The artisans, and all the workers for that matter, recelve pay in the currency of the country, of such uncertain valye that there is little incentive to work, be- yond obtaining the bare necessities of life. “There can be no saving, which is so essential for the upbuilding of business, because the depreciation of the kroner over hight may sweep away, and in countless instances, has done so, the savings of years. The tillers of the soil are far better off. The earth, if properly cultivated, produces regardless of industrial or financial disturbance. The peasants raise their food and eat fit. “True, they do not receive much for their surplus as they should but there is no danger of their going hungry. Unfortunately, for Austria, by the edict of the Ver- sailles conference, the food produc- ing area of Austrfa is all too small. Germany Best of All ‘““While still in great uncertainty | as to what is to be the outcome of her governmental financial situation, Germany in a sense is the best off of any of the countries I visited. The | man power fs there, the fertile soil | is there, the facilities for industry are there, the latter having increas- ed rather than diminished by the war. “Moreover, the people have gone to work, so that the soil yields its abundant increase, and mechanical industry its manufactured products. The artisan receives a wage gro- tesquely small when compared with what the same class of workers re- ceive in the United States, but when he turns his wages into lving it secures for him far more than the| money exchange value would {n- | dicate. course, ENGLAND WILL PAY. Learned discourses might be writ- ten about payment of war debts and they would have little effect upon the man who walks along the street and ruminates on things in general. But a little bit of news, stating a plain fact, will bring results. The news of the day says that the American Debt funding commission has received of- ficlal word from Great Britaln that her $5,000,000,000 debt to us will be paid and that the British Ambassador in Washington has stated that inter- est on that debt will be begun to be paid on October 15, when $125,000,- 000 falls due. The gentleman who ambles along the street and contemplates the sky- line thoughttully, contracting his in- telligent brow in deep study of it, will heed that little bit of news and will probably remark, when next he meets some crony, that England isn’t so bad after all—she's going to turn over some cash to us—cash, under- stand?

And the German popu- lation fully trust the American repre- sentatives there, so that American in- fluence is in most instances decisive. “I have said this about our mili- tary representation still on the Rhine because I had occasion to become thoroughly acquainted with their work and because, too, few people in our own country understand the na- ture or the importance of the work Lthey are doing there.” Still, if there were no coke-eaters, who would sympathize with the wom- en whose husbands don't understand them?
