dlfllcult to nourish hatred In ono's

tho German civilians, many of whom
were German officers until a week
ngo, answer with tho utmost pollto-
ness.
Defeat and revolution ln which they
aro threatened, nnd fear of worse
things that may happen, have made
the German people painfully anxious
i abide by the rules of our occupa
tion and get on the right side of thoso
who now have the powers of life and
death over them. This fear and the
tremendous relief that the bloodshed
has been finished, and perhaps also
tho hope of a now era of liberty re-
-used from Pruss n mhltarlsm, l.as
changed amazingly the attitude of
hese peoplo of the Rhlnelam toward
tho KnKllah. Thero Is no moro of "Gott

More Afraid of BolsheTltm
Again and again during tho last few
days I hae heard the German people
say, 'Thank God tho 'English haxe
come," and I believe they say It with
sincerity. The German mlddlo c'asses
are more afraid It seems of Bolshevism
than of the British soldiers, and during a.
time of political crisis and social revo
lution, portions with property and thoio
who desire law and order rather than
the anarchy of a mob, are anxious for
our presence, as being the lesser of two
evils, though there Is tragedy enough.
At Duren, now occupied by our troops,
the first act of n mob partly mado up of
revolutionary soldiers and partly of dis
orderly youths, was to break Into the
barracks and loot them. The German of
ficers were disarmed nnd degraded, but

EVENING, PUBLIG,
nbt otherwise hurt, and there-wbb a good
deal of window smashing and pillaging
until the burgomaster enrolled a town
guard, mostly made up of ex-soldleis
In plain clothes with nrm bands nnd
with loaded rifles.
TJico men were there Friday when I
visited the place, drawn to It by ltd
curlous architecture. It wna built Just
beforo the war, rather on tho plan of
tho model dwellings In Berlin. I arrived
Just as one of our officers was about to
examine the delivery ot nrms called for
by a proclamation forbidding any civ
ilian to carry weapons under pain of
leath.
r.iihtjr.four Mlnemrerfrr ln Barracks
Moat of the arms delivered were offi
cers' swords one boy came through
town with n wheelbarrow loaded with
them and they were ornamental thlng3
carried by German olllccrs In peacetime
and never taken on the battlefield Bu
In one great room of this barracks were
eighty-four trench mortars, brought back
from tho field of war. They wore the
three-Inch mlnenwerfcr which the Ger
man used with deadly effect ln their
attaclU on March 21 and other das
during their last offcnsUc, when they
used targe numbers of them for the
first break through. I was glad to sec
them there, out of action, necr again
to fcfc used against our. flesh and blood
One of tho town guard spoke to me and
showed me his papers, proving that he
had been a soldier In Champagne and
Flanders until he tvii badly wounded
In the head by British shrapnel.
"Thank God, all that Is ocr!" he
said.
In the evening I went to Aix-ln-Chapclle
again and after 8 o'clock
crowds who had been In tho streets as
though for a public holiday watching
the Belgian and British officers and men
and saluting them with doffed hats and
rending the latest proclamations by the
Belgian goxernor disappeared ns though
by magic The city was still brilliantly
lit, tho electric standards flooded the
streets and the handsome public build
ings and shop fronts with a whlto Il
lumination, but Alx was utterly deserted
except for the Belgian sentries pacing
up and down and a few Belgian and
British officers strolling about and re
marking to each other how fantastic a
thing was this loneliness and this light
where an hour ago there had been great
crowds.
It Is like some Roman city, as one
might Imagine It after its people fled,
or like some Btory of universal tragedy,

No Sign of German Hunter
So far. I cannot find any outward
sign of hunger In Germany. There Is
good food to be had In all the- Hotels
I hae seen, nnd oven In tho country
Inns. Tho bread Is coarse, but good.
Butter comes for the asking and meat
seems to bo plentiful. Cheese Is sered
for breakfast Inrtcad ot eggs or uacon.
Coffco Is "ersatz'' or substitute, mado
from corn nnd not bad. There Is no
dearth of sugar In the hotels. Pota
toes and cabbages come up with mtat,
but prices are high and hotel life not
a safe way of judging concmioiiB ui
the peoplo's food A woman In a tobac
co shop told mo that, many children
have died from malnutrition nnu mm
In the poorer quarters of German towns
one sees children with pinched faces. It
Is difficult to get at the trutn, out as
tar T rnn find It. t have the Im
pression tint thero have been periods of
scarcity whlcii reacnea a crisis mm
spring and that now, after a good har
vest, the food situation is better, es
pecially on the edgo of the Rhlneland,
where tho country Is cry rich.
In the Interior tho sltuntlon I am
tnld. is critical, owing to transport diffi
culties, but tho truth of that can only
be had by personal observation. As far
as that goes In my case, I do not find
any general dearth among tho mlddlo
classes, and In towns like Alx and Duren
the German girls bcslrge the shops In
the afternoons and regale themselves

old days of peace In a way that would
bo the envy of girls In England, to
whom such things are denied.
And yet I still believe the German
soldier was hungry at the end, for If
one docs not believe that, then all human
evidence goes for nothing, and the
French civilians, who ln scores of vil
lages told mo the German soldiers were
starving, were very much deceived.
Psychology n Myntery
What Is the present psychology ot
the German pedplo Is to me a mystery.
They do not show rny of that profound
humiliation which one might have ex
pected. Outwardly they maintain a
strange cheerfulness, though when they
talk, about the war and speak of their
losses they reveal the tragedy that has
befallen them.
One woman told me of a neighbor who
had lost Six sons, and said, 'There,
aro many like tint." Ono woman said.
'Sidness Is In our hearts," and wept
A man to whom I spoke said 'The war
wa a great swindle. Our Government
swindles us from first to last. They

Tha represents the number of employes engaged in the
Automobile business. It is twelve per cent, of all the peo
ple engaged in mechanical and manufacturing industries
in the United States. The industry, therefore, supports
about three million people or one and half times the pop
ulation of Philadelphia. Their wa;ges of $747,000,000
Is more than twice the annual revenue of the United States
Post Office; seven times the money paid the railroads for
transporting the mails; equal to three-fourths of the Gov

dollars more than all the gold in circulation in the United
States at the end of 1916.

Such an industry musf be producing one of the world's
