The Berlin correspondent of the Daily Express, referring to Lord Buckmaster’s statement in the House of Lords that the life of the.

The masses of Germany ar? leading a life of great prosperity. ,Ther? has been an amazing growth of buildings, including factories and farm dwellings. Outside the capital food is cheap and abundant. It is calculated there are now five times more motorists than before the war. Agriculturalists an probably better off than at any previous period in history. Commercialist.; are hardly less flourishing. The Ruincapitalists have had gigantic credits opened in their favour to enable them to carry on resistence. It was true the middle classes, especially the intellectuals, had suffered severely, many being crushed out of existence, but their places had been taken by others springing from a different strata of society.
