paragon of peace and quiet, California's
only six cylindered, rubber tired. ball
bearing, noiseIess politician, Frederick
Smith Stratton. by the grace of Senator
Perkins and permission of the SouthSrn
Pacific collector for the last ten years
of the port of San Francisco.
There is nothing somber about the
silence fnNthe quiet mans presence 1t
is the calm of repose. the peace of per-
feet poise. The substantial furnishing
of a room of generous proportions is
lightened by the glow OF blazing
coal fire, and at desk on which every
thingNis in immaculate order sits an
immaculate man.
From his carefully brushed hair to
his well shod feet everything is as it
should be- Simple as Abe Lincoln in
his tastes, he has the knack of keep
ing his trousers from bagging at the
knees, and if his necktie ever crawled
up at the back of his collar the man
that saw it buried the secret deep in
his bosom. The color scheme of his
attire has the unobtrusiveness of ar
tistic harmony. Architecturally the
collector is tall and spare and his
bright eye and clear complexion sug-
gest a well ordered brain and trust
worthy liver.
The fact that he has held his job,
one of the richest plums in the federal
orchard, for 10 years would indicate
that he has made good in a business
sense as we'll as politically, for the COL
| lectorship of a port as big as San
Francisco is not sinecure. The Sc
cret of his success, say his friends. lies
in the silence with which he surrounds
! himself
He is the only politician in CALI
fornia. perhaps in the United States,
who says that he dis1ikes seeing his
name in print as if he meant it. OF
newspaper interviews he says;
They mean nothing, for the reason
| that the only really interesting things
that any man may tell about himself
are those on which either his modesty
or shame compels his silence When 1
| was young 1 loved to be interviewed.
Was willing even to pay money for the
privilege of blowing my own horn.
With the years has come decent re-
gard for the publies feelings and a
love of seclusion.''

| Stratton avoids the bright light OF
publicity by a system of vicarious rep
resentation.
One of the duties of his office is
to extend the courtesy of the port to
distinguished visitors from overseas.
AS collector of the port he is also in
vited to the banquets, luncheons and
other feasts spread in honor of visit
ing dignitaries. His seclusion is dearer
to him than the grasp of 2 royal hand
and the good behavior of his liver
more to be desired than a banquet
