and

export on a small scale to neutral countries But the industry is still badly crippled and the crop area is to be reduced to half its former dimensions. Britain has already blocked the direct export of German goods and the direct import of raw niaterlals by the North Sea, but the ports ot' Holland anti the Scandinavia countries are used to some extent by the enemy in trading with the outer world, although wheat landed in lloiland is no longer allowed to go to Germany by rail. By way of tying tip still further the German tratiic with neutrals, tlte Brit- ish Governtnent has just added a number ot’ commodities, such as copper, rubber and ores, to the conditional con- traband list; and London papers suggest that nickel should be included. lt is used in making anintunition and armor plate. (‘aiiatiiau iiit-kel is sent for the most part to the l'nitetl States.

The strain of carry- ing troops anti etiuipnieiit is telling on the railways, but a recent visitor says, they might as well be doing tliatl as doing nothing, because the quantity oi’ goods offering for private transport is “not worth ttientioning.” Ati in- t-oiivertible paper currency has been resorted to with the usual result, its purcliasing power at lionie is steadily de- clining and foreigners refuse to take it at all. The prob- leni ot' unenipioytnent is being haiidled by the tnunicipal aiitiioi'ities with a fair measure ot' sut-cess; but when the poor fellows ask when they itiay expect to go back to their regular work, they are referretl to bulletins announc- ing Gerinan victories or telling oi' the wontlerfiil perforni- tiuees ot' the big siege guns.

More- over, while the Ilritisii loans were taken by bona iitle private investors, it appears that when the German loan was placed on the inarket the Goveriinient instructed the (leriuau hunks as to what tintouuts they must apply i'or; and as only ti fraction was absorbetl by their customers, the banks are failing but-k on new issues oi` paper iiioney.

PARIS. Oct. 17.-Of all the heroes y

oi' this enormous war who will live in the nieinory of man, one ot' the pure". one who can never be loved enough.: is tlte great young king oi' niy eouiitiy. At the decisive hour he was the heav- en-seitt man to whom we call his peo-

ple.

ln it single moment he revealed wltat

Belgium was to the woritl. lie had the atlutirable t`ortuite to at-t decisively in the inost tragic hoitr, when the most balanced eotiscieiices lost their as- surance. Had he not been there. things would certainly have gone dii`- ferntly, and history would have lost, one of its most beautiful and noble P3595- __

Assuredly Belgium woulti liave been

loyal to her word. and a governntent which hesitated would have been pit- ilessly swept, away by tite intligiiatitnt of the people who never have been treacherous, but there would inevit- ably have been some vacillation anti confusion in the generitl upheaval.

The king's heroic lint- of action is

straight, clear and iiitigiiificetit, like that oi` Tiiertnopylne intietiiiitely ex- tended. but what he has suffered and ‘surfers every day can only be told by those who have had the luippiness to

tive and niildest ot' int-ii. discreet, silent and of delicious tintitlity. \vlio loves his people tio less than a father loves his children. than n son loves the mother who adores hiiu.

(ff all that dear kingdoni, his pride

and joy, his house and happiness. there remain only ti few towns intact. aiitl titreateiied by the viiest ittvatlei' the world has ever seen.
