less it was that when Mr.. Wilson got
his position as President he took all
his old friends in the business direc-
tory. from architectural iron works
to yarns, domestic and imported, and
fixed them up with jobs alphabetically.
For instance, old friends up to and
including hotel supplies and house fur
nishings gets postmaster jobs and he
appoints Judges and custom house col
lectors from insurance brokers and in
terror decorators, and when he reached
! the P's he had Ambassadors Jobs to
hand out, so he puts. printer and
publisher in London and a pig iron
manufacturer in Paris, and probably
you would find an old friend of Mr..
Wilson in the plumbing supply bust
ness is Ambassador to Sweden. and
another old friend in the pants bust
ness Ambassador to Norway, and so
on from paints and painters supplies
through pickles down to portable
houses"
"Well, after ALL" Birsky said. "it
amt such a Kunst to be an Ambassa-
dor. All an Ambassador does is what
he is told"
"And they couldn't even do that"
Iapp continued. That's why. accord
ing to some people, President Wilson
is sending Colonel House to make
them fellers stay on the job, on ac-
count Colonel House being banker,
naturally printer or pig iron man.

which all of them bankers is connected

that business could be better and il

dent of the bank asks him does he

bank says so House told him, and the
fact is that money amt as easy as in
former times and would like the pig
iron manufacturer to clean up"
"Aber if the feller is so short for
money as all that" Birsky inquired,
"Why don't he stay at home and at
tend to business instead of going to
be an Ambassador ?"
"Well, I'll tell you," Zapp ex-
planned; at amt when Teller goes
to be an Ambassador that he's short
of money. It's when he comes back.
Ambassadors don't get no salary to
speak about, and the expenses is ter
rible."
"Then what do they want to be
Ambassadors for? ?" Birsky demanded.
Because it's big honor to be an

Ambassador" Zapp said. "Supposing
feller would be the biggest manu-
facturer of pig iron in the State of
Ohio, and if he meets once in six
months a couple of Congressman oder
a Judge, he's doing immense, y'under-
stand; whereas, when he becomes an
Ambassador, Birsky, it is nothing for
that Teller to see Kings and Queens a
hundred times every night of the
yeaI."
"And probably the best he holds is
tens and deuces," Birsky said. as it
any wonder he comes home broke?"
81 am speaking from real Kings and
Queens, Birsky, which it costs just so
much money to see real Kings and
Queens every night as though they
would be kings full of queens in a
table stakes game" zapp went on.
"Well, if it's necessary in their
business for Ambassadors to spend so
much money" Birsky asked, "Why
don't the Government allow them an
expense account"
That's what everybody says"
Zapp replied. "The Ambassadors As
sociation puts it up to Congress lots
of times that their expenses should be
paid, and the Congressman says where

81 don't know" Zapp replied, "but
if the Kaiser of Germany would send
an old friend of his which was for
years prominent banker in Bingen
on the Rhine to see what could be done
with the King of Bulgaria, y'under-
stand, Bulgaria would now be as neu-
trail as Toronto, Canada. What the
Kaiser done was to send to Bulgaria
a feller which worked lifetime as an
Ambassador in every country in Eu-
rope, and while in all probability he
didn't know paying teller from a
safe deposit vault, and wasn't no more
intimate with the Kaiser than you are
with President Wilson, Zapp, he swung
Bulgaria right into line, and that's
what we should do with England and
Germany and France"
"But we already got Ambassadors
in England, Germany and France"
Birsky protested.
"Sure, know" Zapp said. an Eng
land we got an Ambassador, also an
old friend of President Wilson, which
used to was prominent printer and
publisher in Garden City, L. l., and in
France we got an old friend of Mr..
Wilson, which used to was one of the
biggest pig iron manufacturers in
Ellyria, o."
"Well, how did them fellers get ap-
pointed Ambassadors ?" Birsky asked.
81 don't know" Zapp replied, "un-

do they come in that they should
give Ambassadors money to spend in
Berlin oder London. United States
Congressman amt running for Con-
gress in Berlin oder London, and the
way they figure, if an Ambassador in
Paris buys six quarts ice cream and
n couple cases beer every afternoon of
his life, the money might just so we'll
be paid over to the cashier of the
Honest Ballot Association for all the
good it does, because nine times out
of ten, all that Congressman eoes
to Congress for is to get elected to
Congress again."
"Well, you can't blame those fellers
that they Want to hold their jobs"
Birsky said.
"A feller which is so anxious to
hold his job that he couldn't show re-
suits to the people he is working for"
Zapp said, "would better be without
a job; it don't make no difference If
he's a Congressman oder a shipping
clerk"
"How about an Ambassador Bir-

"An Ambassador amt a job" Zapp
said. "It's an expensive pleasure trip
