(U.R) It will take a full generation to rebuild the ruins of France, according to ex perts of the newly formed minis try of reconstruction. More than 1,500,000 homes have been totally destroyed and 3,000,000 people who owned them are living 10 in a room or miserably in cellars of smashed houses. "Damage to the country is twice as great as in the last war," Urbain Cassan, leading architect and member of the ministry, told the United Press. "In 1914-1918 damage was far more localized. Today it extends from Normandy to Alsace to the Mediterranean. It will take 20 years if we rebuild alone. We hope to use the labor of German prisoners, but even with their work it would require 10 years." Allied bombs and German fires have almost completely de stroyed such beautiful towns as Amien, Beauvais and Rouen. The old Norman town of Saint Lo lies flat except for a few charred and tottering walls. The irreplaceable 15th century vil lage of Valognes, whose smashed cathedral was one of the sights of Normandy, is one-third ruins Throughout most of the grim mest cold Europe has known for years refugees from these towns lived without gas or electricity The ministry has promised that by next August, however, all the bombed-out will have adequate shelter. In an emer gency measure designed to bridge the gap until real recon struction can begin with the wars end, the French govern ment is importing from America some 80,000 tons of canvas beaverboard, and steel plating. This quantity is far from suffici ent, but is all that limited shin ping space allows. After the war even more material will pour in under the terms of the lease-lend pact recently concluded between France and the United States. GI Remits Train Fare Undercharge In Jap Currency With the 96th Division in the Philippines (U.R) Debt-con scious, despite the distractions of his present surroundings, Sgt. Arthur D. Dubin of Highland Park, 111., recently replied thus to a railroad official who sought $3.09 to make good an under charge on the doughboy's last furlough home: "Please pardon the delay in answering your letter, but I re ceived it only yesterday It was found in an abandoned mall sack in the front-line area. The mail orderly delivering it was wound ed en route to the front. "I appreciate your inconveni ence, but inasmuch as the fi nance department has not yet felt it safe enough to risk the taxpayers money this far for ward, I find it necessary to re mit in the only cash available, captured Japanese invasion currency. "You will note that the value of my remittance is ten pesos, which is equivalent to five American dollars. Therefore, and I quote your letter, I must ask that you send me immediately a remittance of $1.94 to cover this overpayment." Movable Fireplace Shown At Exhibit Chicago, (U.R) Have you been dreaming about a fireplace yot can pick up and move from room to room in your home? Whether you have or not, such a fireplace is now a reality, on view for recent buyers at the American Furniture Mart here Also displayed at the show were chairs of a type that can be adapted, in pairs, to make a piano bench, in trios to serve as a love seat, and In fours as a card table. These chairs, described as the "trickiest yet convelved, also can be set up in circular manner, and, presto) a sofa. One of the main features uf the show was styling, about 40 per cent of the furniture suites being in the modern and t8th Century designs. Officials of the market uredicted that the modern style is destined to pre dominate in the postwar era, be cause of its favoritism with the youth now in the armed forces. College Professor Sees 140 Million Population by 1970 State College, Pa. (U.R) Looking ahead to the turn of the century, a Pennsylvania State college professor predicts a stable population approximating 140 million people. According to Dr. Walter Coutu, associate professor of sociology, the population will continue to increase until an all-time high of 155 millions is reached in 1970 or 1980. After that, he believes, the trend will be downward until the 140-mil-lion mark' is reached. "A small, well-cared for, well educated population will make the nation stronger both nation ally and internationally," Dr. Coutu said, explaining that the tendency toward smaller fam ilies offers no cause for alarm The decreasing birth rate, he said, is the result of urbanization and constant striving to raise living standards. Another contri buting factor, he added, Is the apparent reluctance of many adults to sacrifice personal free dom for a family.
