The consumer pays 115 ,f centimes for it.” “What does the government do, faced by these facts? It makes speeches? “No increase in salary for the little government employes, but millions for war.” These are samples of signs carried in big automobiles that traversed various streets of Paris the other morning. It was away of avoiding the police prohibition of parades by people who wanted to protest against the high cost of living. It is true the manifestants were Communists. But even people who abhor the Reds and all their ways, applauded this stunt, because all working class France, small shop keepers and minor officials are feeling the pinch of the “vie chere,” which is the French equivalent f*r CHEAP MONEY TO LEND We always have money to lend on farm lands at lowest rates and best terms, and you vzill always save money by seeing us.

C. of L. The average Frenchman can't understand why a country was successful in war, which raises a great deal of its own food, and has very little unemployment, should see the cost of Jiving go up five years after the war is over. According to statistics recently published, the trend in almost everything that the average- man or woman needs is upward. Taking 100 as the index figure of cost be fore the war, today the cost of food-stuffs in general is 422, and the cost of manufactured articles is 509. And in France the same phne nomenon is manifesting itself that I observed in my various trips in Germany—the depreciation in the value of the French franc is not being followed in the same pro portions by a rise in prices in the restaurants and markets. In France, as in Germany, the prices of things rise as the money of the country drops in value. But the rise is a slower one. And once more the same feeling that I observed in Germany is be coming manifest in France.

There was one price for the German and anther and very much higher price for the foreigner. And a French deputy has intro duced a bill providing for a 20- per cent tax upon the hotel bills of foreigners coming to Paris.
