HUN’S FINANCES
ARE BEST EVER
SAYS STATESMAN
AMSTERDAM, May 2 — In aj
war loan propaganda speech at Mu- ■
nich President Havenstein of the
Rcich&bank, declared that Germany’s
financial position wis better than that *
of her enemies and that “the longer I
the war lasted the stronger became
the fatherlands financial power," ac
cording to the Vossischc Zcitung.
“Whether we shall get a war in
demnity is not yet certain," he added.
“It will depend on the victory still to f
he won. Bankruptcy of the German
errpir*. however, is unthinkable
long as the enemy does not succeed
in smashing the fatherland, one thing
is. essential namely freedom of com
petition for German products through t
the whole world. Then we shall be •
able to bear war burdens better than
Kngland and France. But war bur
dens will be heavy. Our future motto
must be, work twice as hard and save !
twice as much as before.”

TALKS ABOUT
CHEAPER COAL
“Residents of Sewrd are looking
forward to the building of the link
which will connect that seaport with
the Matunuska coal fields this summer
according to E. L. Whittemore, a ho
tel man of that city, who is at the
i Seattle,” says the Seattle Post-Intell
igenccr of recent date. The gap in the
line will be completed by the railroad
commission early in July, according
to present plans. “Seward will then
be in an advantageous position to es
tablish various kinds of industries."
He says: “At present we are paying
$17 a ton for coal and when the line
is completed we expect to get this
fuel at $5 a ton. Seward will then be
come a tidewater terminus of the
railroad and will become a shipping
point of considerable importance with
the development of mining and agri
culture along the right-of-way".
