THE GERMANS AS
BUSINESS TOURISTS
Germans Making Progress Fast
er Than Any Nation The Ger
man A Business Man Through
And Through--He Observes,
Investigates And Estimates,
Then Plans His Enterprise.
GERMANS BUSY EVERYWHERE

Only few weeks ago a correspond
ent of The Sun. writing from Venice,
called attention to the fact that the
traveller encountered the German ev'
erywhere in Europe. Now comes for
mer Mayor Mcclellan, filed with
establishment over the same fact. He
declares that the Germans have plenty
of money and that they are making
progress faster than any other nation
in Europe. All of which has long been
patent to observant Americans travel
ing on the other side Of the Atlantic
The American error, however, lies
in a general Misunderstanding OF Ger
man standards. The German tourist is
profoundly interested in all that lies at
the basis of nations greatness, artis-
tic, literary or social When he is in
Italy he probes the records of that
country's art life. When he is in
France he seeks for the elements that
have formed the present complicated
structure of French humanity.
When the American sees the Ger
man tourist doing this sort of thing he
puts the Teuton down as mere tour
list, dreamer, a philosopher, mayhap
even a poet. But he does not think of
him as a business man Yet as mat
ter of cold fact that is precisely what
the German of to-day is. He is a bust
ness man through and through. In
this country, if his methods were bet
ter known, he would be called an eco
nomist
To be an economist is in the general
opinion of Americans to be theorizer,
a college professor, or at worst ram
pageous magazine writer. That is not
the kind of economist the up do date
German business man is He travels
everywhere, he observes everything,
weighs everything, and estimates its
activity in the life of the people. Then
he goes home and plans his business
relations with that people on the foun-
dation of his understanding of it.
The German did not begin doing this
sort of thing lately. He began it long
time ago. That is why certain Ameri-
can business men, seeking to open up
new channels of trade in South America,
found that the channels had already
been cut and that they were entirely
occupied by German commerce. A
good many Americans who set out to
begin trade with, let US say. Turkey
or Bulgaria, will meet with the same
sort of a surprise. The German tour
lists are indeed numerous. They over
run all Europe. But most of them are
German business men, and they are
spying out the lands New York Sun.
