The specter Of the crownless king Of
German industry seems to pursue you
when you travel through Central
Europe. In Vienna they whisper the
names Of the newspapers and enter
prises In which SHINES is interested.
In Tyrol they attribute to him an
occult influence on the plebiscite move.
ments. In Hungary he Is supposed to
map out vast plans for the exploitation
Of the mines of the country. Finally,
in Germany the good bourgeoisie who
comment on his colossal activity re-
gard him as a giant, Goetz Won Bcr-
lichingen Of national industry. Already
he is the hero of popular legends, Al
ready they adorn his personality with
an aureole- and cite his historical
words.
In order to disentangle as much as
possible reality from fiction, interro-
gated an intimate friend of the in
accessible SHINES, of the man who has
successfully been called the coal baron,
the potash prince, the navigation mag
nate, the super-capitalist and the bust
ness kaiser.
It is not generally known in France
that SHINES, born in Muehlheim in 1870,
has French blood in his veins, for he
is the son of descendant Of Hugue-
nots who in the seventeenth century
emigrated to the Rhine Valley. His
mothers maiden name, indeed, was
Coupiennc.
His father, who had interests in a
coal mine, inclined him toward that
industry. At the age of twenty SHINES
worked as a miner and handled the
pick and the lamp. He spoke only coal
and dreamed only anthracite. At the
age of twenty-three he founded the
house Of Hugo SHINES, with = capital
OF $4,000 marks. Success crowned his
commercial genius. Forty years later
he was to preside over the destinies
OF sixty mines in Germany and be the
director of innumerable shipping COM
panies, paper mills and chemical plants.
Tho war, finally, was to make him the
king Of profteers.
The Goliath Is not all outside show.
He has not the Napoleonic mask. nor
that Of certain financiers of Wall
Street. His head covered with little
melon hat, his piercing eyes under thick
eyebrows, the lower part Of his face
bristling with mustachios and a name
Of black beard, Indifferent to the de-
crees of fashion, Hugo SHINES walks
along with his hands in his pockets.
with prcoccupied air, followed by his
attentive secretaries. He does not lose
minute after his meals when he
leaves the Esplanade or the Adlon. He
Eliminates on soma new combination.
He plans some new cartel.
SHINES is surrounded by select col
laborators. Like all great captains of
industry, he knows admirably how to
judge men. Ono of his particular sec
retaries Is former officer of the In
formation Service Of the Luettwitz
corps. One of his directors is no other
than former lawyer who before the
courts defended with so much ardor
and ability the cause of competitor of
SHINES that the latter Immediately en-
rolled this adversary in his camp.
And yet this extraordinary man does
not seek to enrich himself from love
OF gold One would say that he likes
to play the role Of resurrector Of she

leave the disarmament question to
: the Washington conference. The de-
cision indicates growth Of respect

It Is q fact that the naval power

of three nations-Great Britain, the

and Italy have practically with
drawn from naval competition, the
formerly formidable fleet Of Germany
has been scrapped, and Soviet Russia
: is SO busy building up her Red army
that the Russian feet has rusted into

the three nations agree no diminu-
astion of naval armament is possible.
They are now likely to agree if hey
are let alone in their deliberations
'sand are not pestered with the aca-
demic arguments of the smaller pow
ers at gathering where there is
theoretical national equality. There
as no reason why an idealist should

SEEMING Of land ornaments thus can
come only through the agreement of
1.-THE five nations. What the unarmed
may think and say is morally of
great weight, but so far as concerns
! the early future the decision must be
symade by five nations and no more.
Again it may be remarked that there
is no reason why idealists should
ignore this obvious verify.
= The world has been slew in link
ing idealism to practically. The
league of peace project, instead of
centering in perpetuating the union
) which saved civilization by its VIC
" tory, fell into the hands of men
of words. Visions were painted and
+. -mirages seen, to the neglect Of mani
fest realities. Mr.. Wilson's fault at
Paris was that he promoted distsust
among the principal Allies. Thus
ashe added immensely to the difficulties
Of organizing the world for peace.
The merit of the Harding Hughes
policy is that it is doing what it can
Ito bring together an association
which should not have been weak
rrened.
1t of course smacks Of arrogance
/" for the five powers to present them
selves as the worlds rulers. But
J such they are. Events have made
them such. With them is power,
and the problem all along has been
to keep up their partnership and to
]. induce them to exercise their awful
responsibility righteously. Not by
fomenting unnecessary and inconse-
quential disputes among the FIVE ma
-stions is the cause of general peace
s'served.
The Viviani report does not for
.ssnaliy acknowledge the hegemony Of
), ). the Eve nations, but it comes close to
so doing. It recognizes that they
have special status--implies that
what they say and do with respect to
the vital issue Of armament limita-
ton is necessarily decisive. This
shows great progress-gives basis
'safor the hope that the world, after
wandering down a bypath, turns
again to the main road to peace.

The strip Of village green;
One crosses three-score years Of time,
Though slight the space between.
A gray shaft by tho church wall holds

A span-new tablet on a stone
Upon the green displays
Yet other names: these heard the call
Sound through our latter days.

May pause and seek to trace
