These are trivial danger signals

to any general war. But If Poland or
Russia were to move their armies on

CERMANY'S ATTITUDE TOWARD
AMERICAN METHODS CHANGING
Economic Observers Consider Altered Views of Old
World on U. S. Ideas Phenomenon of Great
1mportance-New Plans Eagerly Sought

A phenomenon of outstanding i'm
portance, and one which continues
to be a topic of active discussion
among leading economic observers, is
the changed attitude of Germany, her
business men, her industrialists and
her flnanciers. regarding American
ideas and methods
More and more. Germany is swing
ing over to an Americanized way of
doing business, and Is finding in
creased merit in every plan which has
cial success in the United States. In
every section of the Reich the
observer hears insistent demands from
commercial leaders for an explana-
ton of the latest American methods,
and he is pressed for information on
every conceivable subject relevant to
this Nations business progress.
This is of more than superficial in
terest because prior to the war
Germany was rather arrogant in
respect to her own commercial ideas
and methods, and the average manu-
facturer there could see little beyond
his own door-sill. in this at any rate
1t is true, of course, that German
methods then were productive of
highly prosperous results, but the
danger of closing ones eye to any
thing but ones own way Of doing
things should be clearly evident
and now is to the German CONNER
cial world.
Once Thought Less OF.
And in order to make the. picture
complete 1t must be added that
Germany actually thought less of the
value of Americas trade methods
before the conflict than of those
of any other great power. 1t was
felt that there were certain gross
economic misconceptions on this side
of the Atlantic which. If operated on
the, other side, would bring about
results anything but desirable. 1t
was believed, also. that the "inefi
cheney" which existed here soon
would bring us to the brink of ruin.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1927-01-02

This present about-face is, Of
course. quite understandable The
war has sent many illusions crashing
to oblivion. while Americas ire
mendous prosperity. sweeping all
opposition before It. is dinning a song
Of triumph which students of business
methods in Europe no longer can
withstand.
The example of this country, In
industry. for insta nee, is becoming
the guiding star of literally thousands
of German industrialists.
With certain natural reservations,
every German factory owner wants
to know how we do things, so that
he may follow and reap the same
rewards. A few years ago this imita-
ton. gradually becoming universal. IT
seems; would have been preposterous
even in dreams. Now it is a very real
situation. and one upon which every
official and unofficial observer in the
National Capital who has lately re-
turned from the Reich is assiduously
commenting.
Profit Held Certain.
1t is not intended here to discuss
whether this movement is a good one
for Germany or whether 1t is not
However, this much can be said, and
that is that the German business man
and industrialist who studies Ameri.
can methods with keen eye to their
application to his own line, and then
keeps those which will help him and
discards those which clearly are for
America and America alone-because
of varying conditions-is bound to
profit in the long run.
Unquestionably, one of the para
mount reasons for the prosperity of
this country is found in the fact that
the workman is literally paid for his
services. With the workers of the
Nation possessed of a vast buying
power. able to purchase easily needs
and many 1uxuries, the stores are en-
abled to move an unprecedented
volume of merchandise and the fac
tories In turn are kept busy making
possible those high wages. With in
dustry keyed to such a pitch to fill
an apparently Unsuitable domestic de.
mand. the factories can operate on a
price basis which defies much over
seas competition.
Increased wages for German work
ers-and this applies to all of Europe
as WELL, especially ngland-might
not spell immediate broad and un-
troubled prosperity. but an improved
scale undoubtedly would hasten the
return to better conditions, eliminate
certain situations now depressingly
irritating and brighten the general
vista. 1t Is true that Germany's
come back" Is a feature of the
present European situation, and that
England more than the other
countries needs higher wages as an
absolute economic necessity. but
Germany, too, would profit on diet
of scientifically advanced wages.
But of greatest general interest is
the changed point of view noted in
Germany. The methods which few
years ago were scorned now are help
ing to resuscitate the scoffers.
