Toxic, November a0-(Correspondenc of
the Associated Press.) THE abolition OF
foreign settlements in Corea which be-
came effective on December 81. 1913, means
that foreigners this year begin to pay a
municipal tax upon their property. Hith-
erto foreigners were exempted from tax

Corea, or Chosen, for next year has been
made up and will be placed before the
cabinet in TOXIC 1t has been framed
upon the financial policy adopted by the
governor general. which is that of car
rying out the independence of the finances
of Chosen in five years.
Notwithstanding the increase of taxa
ton there has been diminution of reve-
nue. by 100000 in the customs, railroads
and posts and telegraphs, chiefly on ac-
count of the European war. Altogether a
deficit of 81, 80 600 must be made up, part
ly by economy in the expenses of various
offices and partly by Carrying forward to
the future the redemption of some ex-

The Pierce family is oIsf of the first

Linruists in War Time

One Of the interesting sidelights on
the European situation is the advant-
age which the Germans enjoy because
of their ability to speak foreign
languages with more proficiency than
the allies, says the Minneapolis Journal
In dispatch to the London Standard
an English airman is quoted as saying
that one of the greatest needs of the
allies is interpreters for both the
French and British troops. He tells of
his own shortcomings in this respect
II regard the inexhaustible supply of
men who know local languages as one
of the chief factors OF German eff
ficiency in the war. The allies need alb
solutely all the interpreters they can
get. and are suffering for lack of them
Very few British officers and hardly
any soldiers speak even serviceable
French. Over and over again / have
myself been deliberately misled by APP
parent peasants who, felt sure, were
German spies"
The average German is a far better
linguist than the average Frenchman
or Englishman. In a measure this is due
to the thoroughness of German educa-
tional methods. but 1t also Is due to the
fact that Germans who settle in for
tive Inhabitants and assimilate their
methods of thought and ways of doing
business. whereas the Englishman holds
himself aloof, and the Frenchman pre-
fers the company of those who can
speak French and thus relieve him of
the necessity of learning another
tongue.
1t has often been pointed out that, no
matter to what part of the British en-
plre an English official may be sent.
he will find little England awaiting
him. with cricket or polo grounds
handy and most of the social customs
and distinctions just the same as at
home. Yet 1t is generally admitted that
the Englishman has made an admirable
! colonizer, usually much superior to the
! German. Why is this?
| Strange as 1t may seem, the English
mans very refusal to master foreign
| language has made him keep from be-
coming intimate with the subject races,
and the result has been that his aloof-
ness has endowed the native people
with feelings of awe and respect.
