Rally Reduces
Grain Losses
Chicago, Aug. 15 (P) Grains
made a timid rally in the last
hour on the board of trade to
day. The rally reduced losses
which had extended to around
2 cents in corn during the morn
ing.
Soybeans and lard did best on
the recovery move. Both went
ahead of Saturday's closing
prices. Dealings were only
moderately active in all pits.
Grains were sold at the start
on a fair-sized run of cash corn
here today. The rally started
following news that some corn
had been cleared out of local
elevators, making a little more
room for the new crop.
Wheat was lower to
higher, September $2.00, corn
was lower to Ya higher, Sep
tember $1.19 'a -Vi, oats were 3j
lower to 'A higher, September
65 'A, rye was l'A-lVt lower
September $1.46, soybeans were
1 V to 2 cents higher, November
$2.373,i-4, and lard was 3 cents
lower to 10 cents a hundred
pounds higher, September
$12.37.

STRATEGIC STRASBOURG
Border City Takes Rofe
As West Europes Capital
By GODFREY ANDERSON
Strasbourg Strasbourg, chosen new "capital" of Western Eu
ropean Union, has long claimed to
civilizations Latin and Anglo -
Here stolid and admirablef-
German qualities combine with
volatile French intelligence and
wit to create the Alsatian, who
sometimes considers himself, al
slight improvement upon both.
The Romans were the first to
recognize the importance of
Strasbourg's strategic site in a I
fertile valley by the broad sweep1
of the Rhine.
If they still contended all
roads led to Rome, they were
quick to see that some of the
most important of them crossed
by Strasbourg, Right where
the stony north-south highway
met that running east and west
across the Rhine, they set up a
fortress Argentoratum. Later
they enlarged it to a sizeable
armed camp. Julius Caesar
used it as a rampart against re
peated invasions by Germanic
tribes.
Strasbourg's role hasn't
changed so much all through the
years.
Tradition says it was at
Strasbourg that in 843 the
heirs of Holy Roman Emperor
Charlemagne took the famous
oath which divided the em
pire into modern Germany
and modern France, from
which developed their sepa
rate languages and cultures.
Since then Strasbourg has
witnessed repeated fires, in
vasions, plagues and persecu
tions. But its merchants never
ceased to trade and lay the
foundations for the city's wealth
today.
The city's biggest growth was
made under German occupation.
After a terrific shelling, it was
forced to surrender to the Prus
sians in 1870.
When the provinces of Al
sace-Lorraine were annexed to
Germany by the Treaty of
Frankfurt, Strasbourg became
the capital of the newly-formed
Reichsland." The city walls
were thrown down as more and
more German administrative
buildings forced it to spread out
wards from its heart.
It became the most important
warehouse and transit port on
the Rhine. Then World War I
saw the "lost provinces" return
ed to France.
Business was booming again
when the World War II began
in 1939.
the whole population was
evacuated to the Dordogne de
partment of Southern France
Even the garrison was moved
back to the Maginot Line. Only
the mayor remained, with the
fireman and police, in a city
given over to its starving cats
and dogs.
Five more years of Ger
man occupation followed.
Then General Philippe Le
clerc's French armored divi
sion thundered into town.
Strasbourg was French again.
Although sections near the
stations and ports have been ex
tensively damaged by Allied
bombs, the city today shows few
outward signs of having passed
through many wars.
The Gothic towers of its ca
thedral still dream over palaces
of pink Vosgcs granite, over
jam-packed houses with over
hanging gables, tiny dormer
windows, and mullioned panes.
Much of old Strasbourg re
calls the most ancient parts of
the City of London.
The narrow streets twist in
maze-like confusion with the
upper storeys almost meeting
overhead. Modern Strasbourg
has wide avenues built along the
old fortifications, running by
canals where poorer Strasbourg
housewives do their washing
from moored barges in the river
water, watched by curious
Americans on leave from nearby
Germany.
Although most of the popula

tion speaks the Alsatian dialect
(a form of low German), all but
the very oldest inhabitants
know some French.
Like the two languages,
their lives have been split
along sharply opposing lines.
In some families, the father
has fought for Germany in
World War I while the son
has fought for France.
In the past, the city has
known famous sons from both
peoples. Goethe worked here as
a student. Jean Gutenberg set
up his first printing press in
Strasbourg.
