American tourists, in unprecedented
numbers. according to present indica-
tions, will visit Europe next Summer.
The tendency of young and old to
take long vacations in the Old World
is becoming an increasingly important
invisible item in the balance of trade,
and has a distinct bearing on the ca
pacity of Europe to repay its war
debt to the American Treasury. A
writer in London estimates that Amer
leans will spend enough in England
alone this year to permit the British
to meet three years interest require
ments on their debt to Washington.
If the love for foreign travel con.
tinues the countries across the sea
will discharge their Indebtedness in a
comparatively painless manner-by
permitting Americans to inspect their
art treasures, their theaters and by
giving them food and lodging in the
great capitals and spas. The tourist

can change its shape. The average
man is good for more than one job.
There may be ten or twenty jobs that
he can fill and fill effectively.
Intelligence tests cannot tell us
everything. They can help us find
out in what general class mans
ability falls-whether he is of the
upper fourth with an unusually
bright, keen mind, or belongs to the
lowest one-fourth. or is just average.
The man with superior intelligence
can be nearly anything he wants to
be. Even one ranking In the lowest
one fourth has a score or more trades
open to him.
Vocational guidance does not stop
with helping q man select his goal.
We must help him achieve it.

lures indicates.
Used to Be Restricted.
Before the war European travel was
restricted mainly 20 the affiuent, on
the one hand. and to naturalized
Americans, returning to see their
relatives and their homelands, on the
other. Since the war each year an
increasing number of college students
and young folks generally of small
means have taken economical tours
abroad. The war helped to widen
public interest in foreign lands and
the steamship companies, bereft of
the former volume of immigrant
travel to the United States as a ~
suit of the new policy of limited mi
grafton, have sought new business in
the form of tourist third class travel.
The educational value of such wide
spread travel is of distinct i'm
portance, and 1t has a bearing on
trade and financial relationships.

Evening star., 1927-04-29

Moreover, the tourist travel tends to
make for better understanding and
consequently for international peace.
Great as the good results are, they
are frequently exaggerated. Many
tourists carefully guard themselves
from the cultural benefits by follow
ing a beaten path intended only for
travellers and by an undue concentra-
ton on shopping.
Some Commodities Lower.
Although prices generally are about
40 per cent higher than in the last
pre-war year, certain exceptional COM
modities and services are quoted be-
low 1913 prices. Conspicuous among
these are automobiles and electrical
service and the price factor has cor
tributed significantly to the boonI in
both industries.
Paul S. Clapp, managing director
of the National Electric Light Asso-
citation, explained that part OF The
reduction in the price of electrical
service was due to the more efficient
conduct of plants, particularly in the
utilization of fuel, and also to the fact
that more current was being con-
sumed, but more particularly to the
greater diversity OF use.
Mr.. Clapp also disclosed that at
Evening star., 1927-04-29

present electrical service is supplied
to every city Of 5000 or above; that
rs per cent of all communities above
1000 are served, 40 per cent of all
communities above $50 and 20 per
cent of all hamlets of less than $50
persons. The per capita consumption
of electricity has increased 20 per cent
during the last eight years.
The rising standard of living is in
large measure an effect of the in
creased use of power i'll this electrical
age.
Versatility of Some Men.
Jerome II. Bentley, vocational ex-
pert of the Young Mems Christian
Association in New York, has faith
in the versatility of the man of
capacity. He believes that the in
dividual of superior intelligence can
become nearly anything he wants to
be, denying the theory that each Is
fitted only for one type of work.
Vocational guidance" Mr.. Bentley
declared, does not mean that we
shall merely tell a young man after
five minutes conversation that he
should be a machinist or a lawyer or
a bricklayer. Much of the talk about
the square peg in the round hole is
