Comparing the British Ministerial
Offices TO those of the United States
there IS a decided air of extreme
quietness about the former. Where
in Washington. as you went through
any of the State Department, you
would hear the click Of a thousand
typewriters. in the British offices the
quietEess is almost tangible. The
corridors OF the passages are dimly
lighted. and you would not meet a

rooms of all the departments are bad

plying warmth is by means of crate

one of the desks in the Colonial Sec
retary's room registered SIS degrees on
January Z. 1903.
The contrast between English and
American methods is most pro-
nOunced in the systems Of sending
kilograms and handling mails. In
Washington these things are done as
quickly as human hands can do them:

OF his views.
He stands at high desk in the
corner OF large room. sparsely fur

man. He leans over his papers, and
writes in an absorbed fashion.
You enter the room and cough.
He does not look up. but keeps on

way, was just two hours and twenty
