same opinion as that voiced by Mr. Stark, re- 

 gardinfr their high rates of exchange, and their 

 high prices for coal, raw materials and all man- 

 ufactured articles, a recompense for France, who 

 has supported the heaviest burden of the war and 

 Is still supporting it. 



Is it a fair recompense that at the present 

 date France has paid about 200,000,000 francs 

 as difference of exchange since the armistice, 

 this difference amounting nearly to her ex- 

 penses of war? This situation is not at an end, 

 because our devastated areas are still wanting: 

 enormous quantities of materials and labor that 

 we pay for at high rates and, as you know, with- 

 out having the assurance that Germany will pay. 

 The letter of Mr. Stark confirms what we had 

 learned, that numerous Dutch offers have been 

 withdrawn. Our American friend said that this 

 has happened on account of the publication of 

 the high French prices. This is not quite the 

 true reason. The Hollanders have withdrawn 

 their offers because the French decision to sell 

 them the goods In florins and not In francs, so 

 as to place them on the same level as our al- 

 lies, has destroyed their hope to profit by the 

 French nurserymen's work as they have profited 

 during the war and since, too. 



Since April, nearly all the Important Dutch 

 firms have visited the French ones, or written 

 them, and asked their prices. They tried to buy 

 the French products In francs, with the Intention 

 of selling them to our American friends in dol- 

 lars and getting the profit of the exchange. 



It would be a pity, after having been the 

 most affected in the war, to be the commercial 

 dnidge of the world's horticulture. We want to 

 sell our products ourselves on the markets where 

 those products are wanted at a price permitting 

 ns to live. 



As to our American trade, we have not altered 

 our methods, for we have always established our 

 prices In the money of this country, and we 

 have used the same basis to establish the prices 

 for the neutral countries. 



We hope that our American and British friends 

 win reconsider the situation and understand that 

 we can continue our business only If we get a 

 return 8ufl9cient to cover our expenses and that 

 the goods we have to sell this season have been 

 grown by people who have been the last dis- 

 charged from their military duty and that no 

 comparison can be made between them and the 

 Hollanders, who have not had to take their part 

 In the war. 



We could still say more, but esteem this to be 

 sufficient. We are working hard and we hope 

 next season to be In a better financial position. 

 We ask our friends and our allies not to consider 

 the situation only from their angle, but to ex- 

 amine it in a friendly way as it stands on both 

 sides.
