MEN AND MONEY
By NJ. S. Rukeyser.
lCopyriEht. 1927

The expansion OF big business is
throwing unprecedented burdens on
executives, and large interests chron'
icaily complain OF the dearth of indt'
viduals OF sufficient capacity to assume
the highest posts of management.
AS the pressure of work increases,
American business men tend to
approach the greater formality or
manners OF British and continental
commercial industrial and banking
executives. Americans are still far
more informal and freer from the out
ward marks OF grave dignity than
business leaders across the sea, but
are finding it increasingly difficult to
remain as accessible and as informal
as they used to be.
Specifically. business men are budg-
citing their time more carefully, and
are beginning to restrict interviews 10
those with which they have already
made appointments. That practice has
long prevailed abroad, but the Amer
ican executive has boasted that he is
glad to have any one break In upon
him. That policy is theoretically highly
desirable, but in practice the executive
finds that his business day 1s too snort
unless he picks and chooses among
callers.
Works Under Tension.
Tt is traditional that the American
neutrality-suspicious. in dynamic
New York-works at breackneck
speed lie is usually under tension
whereas the British executive VINO

Street district in frock coat and SILK

pointments into a single day. The

Poncha Pass, one Of the few

A fifty-mile wind whipped through

dent Coolidges first joke in weeks
was cracked today at the expense of
the Calumet boosters, who came by
special train to ask Coolidge to dedi-

The Presidents spokesman said he
bad no positive speaking engage
ments soon, and that he had much
executive work to clear up. He had
told the Indiana delegation, the
spokesman said, that there We're so
many in the party-7S-that he might
as well make the speech to them
here. That didn't satisfy them, he
added, because they all seemed to
want to make speeches here. He
seemed much surprised when the
correspondents laughed.
The President had his picture ia
ken with the callers, and, although he
was noncommittal. they were much
encouraged in the belief he might
come to Hammond. He could make
a stop-over on his vacation trip West,
it was pointed out.

ADVENTURES IN PEARLS

in 1919, was purchased by a Spanish
merchant who, after spending a.
sleepless night because of being in
possession of such a valuable gem,
sold it the next day to the imperial
family of Spain. 1t was first worn
by Donna Isabel de Bovadilla and
afterward passed to Isabel, wife of
Emperor Charles V, and is thought
to be a part of the Spanish imperial
jewels today.
In 1910 in the Temple of Tolomeeo,
near the Savannah River in Amer
lea, De Sofa is said to have found
the largest pearl ever seen. In some
manner it was lost on the eXplora-
ton trip one historian describes, as
nothing else has been recorded of it.
It's value would have been worth
millions, so great was it said to be
in size.

Changes in usage of names have

name.
Those, however, who are opposed
to changing the name of the town
point out that under former usage
the designation had no connection
with John Barleycorn, but is old
English for cattleshed. Several at
tempts have been made to present
the matter formally to the local gov
erning body, but each has been I'M
successful.
Opponents of the change to an
other name point to other towns
bearing similar names. The town of
Beer, in the West country, did not
derive its name from the. beverage,
but is an old form of "bear," mean
ing wood. they contend. Hence
Conybeer means 'the man whose

CHEMICAL FOAM
FIGHTS FLAMES
Boston Fire Official Makes
Actual Tests.

BIZ United Press
BOSTON. March II. Chemical
foam is being used here in place of
water in experiments which may
revolutionize fire-fghting methods.
The tests were begun at the direction
of Fire Commissioner Eugene C.
Huffman, who believes fire losses
might be reduced by more general
use of chemical-spraying apparatus
formerly used only at oil fires.
When it strikes fire, the chemical
spray forms a blanket of carbon
dioxide bubbles which smothers the
flames. The foam is non-poisonous
and throws off no noxious vapor. 1t
is not corrosive, and when it dries
it leaves only a white powder that
may be brushed off. According to
Commissioner Huffman. the foam
squirt-gun" requires only one-twen-
tieth as much liquid as water to ac-
complish the same results.
! At recent stable fire, he said, the
"squirt-gun" extinguished the flames
with far greater speed than if water
bad been used.
