All these finds are turned over to the French Ministry of Finance which is en deavoring to discover the original owners of their heirs. All unclaim ed treasures go to the state. Members of the American Second Army Corps recently unearthed at Avoucourt a large number of French and Russian rullway bonds which had lain in the cellar of a demolish ed home since the Germans first invaded the sector. The bonds were all in good condition and bore cou pons which had not* been clipped since July, 1914. Whether the own er is dead or alive will be deter mined by the Ministry of Finance. Among the valuables recovered are many belonging to ruined churches. Not infrequently when several churches in a town have been destroyed and each of them has lost similar treasures it is im possible to say who is the owner of the wealth recovered. In this case it is divided among them.

Then, with all great nations armed to the teeth, the invitation for another war is presented."
