 Lord Avebury has declared that the responsibility for the present condition of affairs does not rect on Englana. but on Germany. fear thst in making this declaration he has rendered no service to the committee for bridging about . rapprochernent between Eng land and Germany, because It Is natural for us to reply that England and not The "Dsutschs Revue' also publishes . statement from ono of the foremost military experts In Germany. who re- mains snonymous and who writes:

The new era in the German navy ot the nineteen or twerty-thousand ton Drsadnoughts was inaugurated by the launching of the SieRfried at Kiel. It is one of the three battleships voted by the Reichstag in 1908. the other-ex- elusive of the 15.000 tons armored crui- ser "0''--being Ersats oldenburg and Ersatx Beowulf, the launching of which will take place before next spring. Up to the present time ouly the armored hulls of these Dreadnoughts exist, and the warships win not be ready for ser- vice until 1911.
 The time employed In constructing the Ersatx Siegfried Is a record for Germany and shows that she can now build Dreadnouxhts as rapidly as Eng land. This fact aggravates the situa- ton so far as England is concerned. and has given rise to considerable alarm in that country. Three additional Dreadnoughts were authorized by the Reichstag this year and they will be ready for service in 1912.
 Buda-pesth has been making the ex- pertinent of a municipal bakery. The Idea comes to have been to give the poor daily bread at the cost price. The bakers however. resent the interior ence with their trade. The Town Coun- cillor who planned the scheme has re- cefved a letter offering him an aero plane, so that he may fly wherever he likes on the one condition that he shall never come back. 1t has been found to keep the cheaper bread to the poor alone. All sorts of people have bought it even, 1t is said. bakers themselves. who thus stock their shops at low price. still public opinion is not made up against the municipal bakery. It Is thought that further study and trial and the baking on a larger scale will ensure the very poor having food to eat. The problem is acute in Buda Pesth, for bread has been very dear

HIGH POSITION

One would think from the discussion that is going on in regard to the de- mands of society upon members of the Cabinet and other officials that the extravagant expenditures of money in entertaining was far beyond the means of the most persons who are invited to fill these positions.
 It must be admitted that the price of everything Is far in excess of that of any other era in the history of our country, and. therefore. to comply with the usual regulations governing social intercourse at the national capital one must expend much more money than was necessary when everything was cheaper than 1t is to-day. In the first place, rentals for houses that are wo-- thy of occupation by these officials are about double what they were twenty years ago.
 The appointments of the homes of high officials are also more expensive and elaborate than of yore. But that 1t Is necessary for public or private prominent people to indulge in extrava- gances in the charter of the entertain ments they give Is a mistake., and Ii will be a fortunate day when the Am erican people have outgrowh their pre- sent provincial ideas of social dignity, pretentious hospitality and extrava- gant entertaining. Society has been deprived of the presence of delightful people who felt financially unable to give resplendent social affairs in return for courtesies extended to them.
 Persons of marked sensibilities hesi- tate to accept invitations to any so- ciai function when they realize they cannot return the courtesy in kind, hence those who would be most delight full acquisitions on account of their intelligence, culture, experience and achievements often decline courtesies which they would really enjoy. and the fact that they feel this delicacy is all the greater proof of their desirability as guests.
 Comparisons between royal enter tainments and those which have been given in our country place all too many Americans on the list of what Euro peans are pleased to call "paryenus. but who are familiarly known among refined Americans as "shoddyftes. Having passed the century milepost. 1t Is about time that we were old enough to put a proper value upon things and to realize that too much display of gold plate, European china and glass and floral decorations Is vulgar. and that if we can bring about well-or- dered, quite and well-appointed board, cultivated people and those distinguish ed for having done something in the world this condition would be in the Government, to go beyond pro- chassable gorgeousness.
 Naturally the members of the Cabinet
The Montgomery advertiser., 1909-10-17

must bear q certain part in the inter- change of social courtesies. but 1t Is not necessary for a man who would &C., cept an important place in the admis- istration. on tho Supreme Bench. in Congress or other honorable position In the Government. to ge beyond pro- per means or to try to make point of overshadowing miliionaires in the brilliancy of entertainments The Government is far better on 1T the members of the Cabinet and other dis tinguished oficials1 of the nation are celebrated for their wisdom. states manship, high character and fidelity to the trust reposed in them than that they should be known by the dinners, receptions and other social functions which they give.
 More than once persons who have accumulated vast fortunes have come to Washington to secure for them selves recognition by giving recklessly extravagant social entertainments. My eyes is e very convenient thing. ana few hale so much of that almost indispens- able article as they would like. Un- fortunately, however. there is a grow ing tendency at the capital of our na- tion to bow down to the golden calf" and omit from social lists persons who have left the impress of their ability. high character and masterful achieve ments in their day and time.
 We recollect with pleasure some of the most able statesmen and officials of the olden time who lived in boarding houses and inexpensive hotels in Wash inston during their entire term of ofii- cial life and from whom no one expect ed return of courtesies extended to them. because fl was well known that their financial condition prohibited them from doing what they would have been glad to do could they have been justified in attempting to entertain beyond their means. In these later days a majority of high officials have been men of fortune: but regrets have of- ten been expressed that they were not the peers of their predecessors from the standpoint of brains.
 The dazzling, meteoris appearance Of the purely wealthy class and their Bell shazzar feasts are within the memory of many people of Washington, but there are no great measures or ofhcial acts in the annals of the departments or of Congress which have made their names immortal. Their careers have been brief, their hospitality forgotten. their heyday unfaithfui friends remem- Der them no more, but are on the watch tower waiting for the advent of others of their kind to appear on the social horizon.
