Assistant Secretary Of Treas

New York-The recent election of
Frank A. Vanderbilt to the presidency
of the National City Bank of New
York, recalls one of the most pictur-
esque stories OF persevering uphill
work ever related of poor American
boy. Thirty years ago, Vanderlip was
plOdding away In machine shop out
west, at rs cents day. His father
had just died In Indiana, leaving a
widow and her family with nothing
but farm and few hundred dollars.
The farm could not be worked to ad-
vantage. SO the young man took the
place in the machine shop as the only
means of supporting the family He
went at 1t like Trojan-he still works
that way-and. after a ten-hour day,
came home to plod portion Of the
night over shorthand textbook.
That made him a competent stenog-
rapher and soon gave him a position
with Chicago investment house at
$40 week. In the days when his
companions of after life we're enjoying
the football matches OF Harvard and
Yale young Vanderlip was digging
away at dry old railroad reports. In
that way he acquired statistical know
ledge and learned how to go to the
bottom OF things.
After saving little money he took
years course at the University of
Illinois and later when serving as a
newspaper reporter In Chicago. he
supplemented this course by attend
ing lectures at the University OF Chi
cago. Most OF his education. however,
was acquired in the university of the

which, by rising and falling with the
waves would impart their power to a
wheel. but no practicable machine was
ever built, and people came to the con
clusion that the problem was impos

work for which they are intended
The motor. or rather the revolving
portion of the motor, resembles in con-
struction and is in effect turbine. 1t
Is the only turbine wheel ever invent

and tide motion. The motor revolves
within stationary shield, which is
equipped with rehectors and guide
blades set at such an angle as to har-
monize all outside conflicting forces of
the water. so that no matter from
what direction the water is jetted into
the interior the motor always turns in
one direction.

the idea of using both the wind and

attention of the government officials
