J ARE GREAT. { Country In Central Europe Has Wealth That Has So Far Been Almost Undeveloped -- People Have Shown Themselves Very Jealous of Their New-Won Liber- ties, Which Accounts for Argu- ments With Italy. T is not remarkable that a people beaten down and exploited through the ages should see In every encroachment on thelr new-won liberties a threat toward a renewal of all those conditions of de- pendence from which they have just escaped, writes Hamilton Fish Armstrong in the New York Evening Post. The nearest neighbor of Jugo- Slavia is Italy, who, throughout the war, was the warm ally of her Kara- george King. But from across the Adriatic have come few signs of friendliness or co-operation; before the armistice, yes---so long as the outcome of the struggle with Austria- Hungary was in the balance the Ital- fan Government found many ways, official and private, of extending sym- pathy and aid to. the Jugo-Slav cause, which was busy undermining the enemy empire. And at the Coun- eil 'of Rome, in 1918, Orlando pro- claimed a policy of the most brotherly friendship for Trumbitch and his associates. Theve were no references, | Administration of Korea to recover in Council or Parliament or press, to "the hegemony of the Near East," "the Adriatic an Italian Itallan watchwords. Jugo-Slavia, with the potential re- sources of a country" of something under 100,000 square miles, mastly undeveloped, 11,000,000 inhabitants, the vast maj- ority of them unskilled in modern arts of agriculture or commerce, pre- sents an enticing field for foreign ex- ploitation. The barest outline of the resources of the new state will be instructive to those who think of the Balkan countries as the abode solely of fleas, short-skirted brigands and if chocolate soldier heroes. Let me | mention a few. The provinces of Batchka and Banat, for example, i| developed during the war into the main granary of the Central Powers and nqw form the richest wheat pro- ducing district per acre in Europe. In Northern Serbia alone the Austro- Hungarian armies by means of the "Ernteverwaltungs Zentrale" (Cen- tral Food Control) after the harvest. of 1917 extracted for their use a total of 7,600 tons dried fruits and 9,000 tons _¢f fruit jam, besides 228,980 litres of wine and 958,500 litres of pure alcohol. The same food com- mission rebuilt a ruined sugar fac- tory at Belgrade and turned out lur- ing the summer of 1918 a total of 4,500 tons of sugar and 3,500 tons of molasses. The machinery of this plant, like that of practically all the other factories of Serbia, was after portant commercial place as the fore- most European producer of pork and bacon, an industry which in the past proved highly profitable even under ,| the most adverse and unsettled con- ditions. The country was wiped bare of live stock by the Austrian armies, but large : indemnity importations have been made, and it also is not ah uncommon sight to see the Danu- bian ferryboats filled with the choice pigs and sheep sent as presents by the Croatians and Slovenes to restock the hillside pastures of their less fortunate Serbian kinsmen. A dealer asked Mr. Armstrong in Belgrade only a few months ago whether there were any American firms whith would care tocontractfor500,000cured kid- skins yearly and whether he would find a sale over here for casein, the glue made from goat's milk, which is used so largely in constructing air- plane wings, Scattered all over the country are vast copper, coal and gold deposits, the majority of them wholly um- worked, some of them unworked since the Middle Ages, when the mineral wealth of the : paid in the fourteemth century for three of the gold mines in Serbia amounted to half the total revenue of Queen Elisabeth of England 200 years later. The production of per at the large mine of Bor in 19 was 300 tons, in 1912 it was 7.67% tons, and during the war, under effi- cient German management, it reach- ed 12,000 tons, The main ,* | with printing lake," | newspaper, refused to give the names | "domination of the Balkans through | of his accomplices.

Another is the cree- tion of a conviction in the Korean mind that promises of reform are for foreign consumption only, and that there is no hope of their condition being ameliorated under Japanese rule. Such are the evil results of ten years of military rule," "Paper Silk" of Japan. Millions of yards of a new kind of in Japan. It is a composition of paper and silk and is called "paper silk," suitable for making blouses, sheet- ings and other dress material. It looks like mercerized cotton at its best, and can be used for all sorts of wearing apparel, It is esti- mated that the stuf can be put upon the English market at only 12 cents per length, i A London merchant who has had twenty years' experience of Japanese imports declared that Japan's manu- facturers are layi .g themselves out Tons of celluloid goods now come to Europe from Japan, which at one time flooded Great Britain from Ger- many. The secret of this is that the Japanese have the greatest available supplies of camphor, which is so largely used in ihe production of cel- luloid material, Many other goods which were formerly unobtainable are now forth- coming, since great quantities of pro- ducing plant and machinery have been laid down. Discounts, ' There are some singular discounts allowed in the book trade. They were happily illustrated on one occasion by Mark Twain. One day, while the hu- morist was connected with a publish- ing house, he went to a bookcases, and picking up a volume, asked the He then suggested that, as a pu er, he was entitled to 50 per cent, discount. To this the clerk assented.
