BKRLIN M W BECOME
ONLY SECOND CLASS CTH
Berlin. Nov., 12- By A. \\— Under
the caption of “The Murder of Berlin”
the Boersen Zeitung. one of the ablest
(icrman newspapers, says the fate of
the city is in the balance and that
is, perhaps . too late to save it from
becoming a city of the second-class »?
every respect. with the removal of
the capital and the activity in a busi
ness and political sense to some
Rhineland eitv. It is a theory that has
been gaining g’txind lately and cat!
ing Berlin to lose sleep.
“One da\” the financial paper adds.
• there will b«» a fearful awnkenm r
it* the problem that confronts us is not
»•( gnized and solved at the twelfth
hi nr. The problem is to save Berlin
from destruction.
The pa tier then cites the January
riots by the Snartaeists. from the
wounds of which Berlin • as never re
covered. Then cam** the March dis
orders, followed hv the July trans
portal ion strike which threw Berlin
into a chaotic state. The strikes
then ensued one after another in an
endless succession. The uncertainty
of the economic situation led to a!
most a boycotting of Berlin as the
chief work center of Germany, for in
dustry had to be sure of quiet and or
del in its search tor labor, and iserlm
daily was the opposite.
Despite the huge expense, one in
dustry after another left Berlin for
quieter, steadier field. Now the
winter months are coming, already
full of threats of uprisings and
strikes.
Merchants, politicians and indus
trial leaders have predicted that the
transfer of the assembly or Keieh
stag. would inflict a severe blow up
on Berlin, especially if it should lead
to the choice of another capital.
The label “imperial capital.” and
its enormous labor possibilities hav •
been Berlin's chief claims to su p<i

iority. It has been the industrial heart
of the empire. Yet, say manufactur
ers, labor is now systematically lam
ing industry and destioying it.

BRITISH FARMERS ARE
HAVING IT \ R0 TIME
TO MAKE RANCHING GO
LONDON. Nov., 12— The farmer’s
task of making two blades grow where
one had grown before is becoming in
creasingly difficult in England, ac
' cording to statistics published here to
j day. Some of his difficulties are set
1 out as follows:
Farm laborers before the wav re
ceived $1 a week; now they get $10.
Every horse must have a weekly ball
holiday. If 20 horses are employed on
a farm this represents an annual loss
1 of $7.50 at 75 cents per hr.’f dr * n
week. Before the war steam ploughing
c. t $1.75 |\ uci •. I*, now costs $45
1 Coal before the war cost $5 a ton; :t
, no a costs $12.50. Nitrate of soda has
i n'/unced from $45 a ton to $125; hind
| e twine from $175 a ton to .$050, and
bk c!:smith, ; nrpentcr’s and saddler’s
v .lx is from 150 to 200 percent high
er.
On top of all this the farmer’s in
come tax has been doubled.
