that some men have no higher
conception of life than to make
money. We love to make money,
and we need to make money to
support our family. We are not
championing the "dry" cause be-

IS right; not because it is a bust

only object we had in life we
would get into another business

GIVES IMPRESSIONS
ON HIS FIRST VISIT
Walter Winans, at Age of SO,
on American Shores.

New York, Nov. S.-Walter Winans, who
comes from an old Baltimore family, and
who, at the age of fifty-eight. is paying
his first visit 10 America. talked to-day
OF his Impressions.
Mr.. Winans was born in Russia, in 1852.
His father was William l. Winans. OF
Baltimore, who went TO Russia in 1916
when he was only twenty-three years old,
saw at once the wonderful possibilities
for the enterprising person who would
start into railroad building in the Car S
country. and went after them. The elder
Winans made a big fortune, and his son
has never had TO work for a living
though he has been a very active man
all his life
"The most interesting thing I have
seen SO far-and I haven't been about
much." said Mr. Winans. at the Plaza
to-day, lis the Museum of Natural His
tory. One thing that strikes me with
reference 10 New York is that it is Sc
much more artistic than England. II is
astonishing.
"The first American land / saw was
at Quarantine, / was amazed how differ
ent the looks of the country and the
houses were from what 1 would have
seen on nearing England. II / had not
known exactly where I was would have
thought l was near Austria or Germany.
