Mimi- EVERY DAY LOST ‘ ' MENACES PEACE

PARIS, rFeb. 9.-—-There is no doubt of rthe powerful effect Vis- count Greys letter has exercised I.n the highest and most Influential circles oi‘ France. Striking proof of this is to be found In the follow- ing statement made by Senator Alexander Ilibot, one of France's most distinguished and responsible elder statesmen, who has been twice Prime Minister as well as filling other most important oillces of state. Ribot says: '

“l share the views advanced by Lord Grey in his letter. The moral force of the treaty wi-th Germany runs more risk oI-dlminuntlon by prolonging discussion regarding the pnoposed reservations than by those reservations themselves.

“Under the actual conditions. every day lost prejudices the cause of genern1 peace and compro- fflISes‘ the interest of nations that do not want to be dragged against their will into new conficts. l naturally place the United States of America in the first rank of these nations. '

"By intervening in the war in a deliberate and spontaneous man- ner, and by contributing with de- cisive effect ‘to the triumphof right tho people of the United. States ilflYo assumed liabilities to them- selves as well as to their associates that their honor and heir cori- striorrsness of the importance of the rule oblige them to fulfill even orrt- side of nny written stipulation of‘ the treaty. _

ECONOMIC REVIVAL . NOTED IN BELGIUM

BRUSSELS. Feb. 10.—According to an inquiry made in Belgian econ- omic nnd industrial circles, it ap- pears that Belgium is accomplish- ing her economic reconstitution with more rapidity than France.

it is only fair to state that the si-tu- atlon of the two countries differs widely. Belgium has suffered far less materially than France from the war. Only a limited part of her territory was submitted to the horrors of devastation as compared to the regions of France. Her mines have been, on the whole, untouched, and although a large number of her factories and indus- trial concerns have suffered ‘im- portant depredatlons, they were not. like the factories of the north and east of France, absolutely destroyed.

Nor has Belgium suffered in pro- portion to her population from so heavy a loss as that endured by France. rHer Inbor is thus almost untouched. Moreover the very smallness of the country facilitates both the control of its needs and the exploitation of its resources. Nevertheless, when all these facts have been taken intoaccount, one cannot but recognize that the whole Belgian Nation is inspired with the unanimous wish to efface all traces of war. and resume work so as to recover its former prosperity; nnd Ulla desire is shown in the relent- less efforts of all classes in the country.

According to information gather- ed from different sources, it ap- pears that the Belgian Government must be warmly congratulated for the energy, method. and foresight with which it has faced the econ- omic situation confronting lt. Bel- gian commerce and industry, feel- ing sure of governmental support. started to work again with re- dorrbled energy. It is interesting to note that in Brussels, in 1917. a clandestine organization actively prepared measures to rbs applied after tire war, and this association established in what order the dif- ferent industries should be revived to the best interest of the country after tho wnr.

Indeed, hardly was tho war over than work irr-canto the motto of all Tire workmen recognized
