European relief work shapes postwar rebuilding plans
An American relief worker reports thrifty European towns damaged by shelling are planning how to reuse ruins. In one village damaged steeples will be preserved as memorials while trenches and bombed areas may become visitor sites. A French company pursues temporary housing and hotels on the front, with talks to American manufacturers on portable one story dwellings and hotels from one to 200 rooms. The venture forecasts about 1 million dollars for construction.

He links eye patterns in mammals to bodily constitution and cites Prof Hugene Fischer of Freiburg noting kinship between white man and white livestock.
