INDUSTRIAL DANCER.
MANUFACTURERS IN THE RUHR.
MARKETS MAY BE FLOODED.
By Electric Telegraph.-Copynght. . Received July 18, U. 5 a.m. LONDON, July 17. Sir Basil Thomson, in a special artaclo, draws attention to the industrial danger to other countries when the Ruhr impaßse ends. "Many German factories," he writes, "continue to work full time .throughout the occupation, making for stock. The factories and storehouses are blocked with all kinds of goods. Some day these are going to be let loose on the market at a price whereat no manufacturer will be able to compete. It would be difficult to mention * kind of goods not being produced. The French have scarcely commandeered anything but coal and chemicals, but already there are indications that French , firms hope to secure a reversion of products' at extraordinary low prices and will be prepared to dump them on the world. If the French do not,' the Germans will. Unleßs all are heaved into the Rhine, there will be a serious disturbance of trade. One firm alone is employing 68,000 men continuously. Imagine what that means in the output. —Times.
