asrmany's Industrial Efficiency.

l should think, on the other hand,
that the Germans possess prominent
ly the following traits:
First, thoroughness-the mastery of
facts In the preparation of a basis for
action; elaborate study proceeds de-
cision In most financial and technical
work; high standard of education.
Secondly, unquestioning obedience
to the existing laws-willlngness to
follow rules; a subordination of per-
sonal will to the established method.
This the good side Of their lack Of in
dependence.
Thirdly, honesty throughout bust
ness life is the general rule. Com
paratively little business depends
upon the use of questionable methods.
In technical progress as well as 10
general business methods the Ger
mans are keen for progress. All
branches of business have their trade
journals, which are eagerly watched,
and scores of clever observers are
travelling about world learning much
from their neighbors. Only thirty
hours after the American astronomer,
had informed the world-eentral astron'
omical Office of the discovery of a new
comet, a French astronomer tele-
graphed his news Of the lame celestial
visitor. This faint light Of only ths
ninth magnitude found searching eye
on both sides of the Atlantic. How
much more must the great worlds O
business and industry on either side o
the ocean be waiting for new hints o.
progress.
An American professor, after visit
ing a large chronological institute IL
Germany, told me that the school ant
its equipment was ahead of anything
at home. When this compliment wa
repeated afterward to a prominen
instructor In the institute, he re
piled: "Why. that is exactly what
said Of your technical schools after M
trip 10 America, and that is the onll
way l could get the money to max
ours what it is to-day"
That Germany technical army !
marching forward in good form is
generally accepted fact. The Amerl
can terror is before their eyes, bu
they have elements Of strength whicI
may keep them up against all CON
p%etltors In certain lineS-L0uis ]
