Journeys
The Tempo Of Eienna
BY TEMPLE MANNING

NOME time ago-too long ago 10
suit me.-we visited Vienna
~ and l told you briefly about
some az its charms. We are gong
70 return there today and / shall
try 10 make YOU feel as ! do, that
Vienna "a one Of the most glorious
spots IN the world and by far the
gayest and most appealing capital Of
Europe.
Gayety and charm sire less mat
tiers of physical advantages and
geographic layout than they are mat
tiers Of personality. IL IL the PEG
PIE Of Vienna, the way they act. the
things they do and the way they
feel that makes their city such a
beauty spot and such a lOdestone for
hundreds and thousands OF travellers.
Vienna Is a particularly clean city
because the Niennese have decided
70 make IL SO. Attached 10 every
third lamp post along the streets and
~boulevards there is a waste paper
can. When you travel IN Vienna be-
sure 10 use these 'receptacles and
don't throw so much as a scrap OF
paper on the sidewalk or street. III

satisfied with giving you a good
talking to-they Will impose and col
Iect a fine on the sDOtl
In the old days. the police depart
ment would take IN "A good many
Schillia0S every day. but since the
people have learned 10 respect the
law and admire their nice clean city,
the revenue has dropped 70 almost
nothing.
On the other hand. the police de-
partment. some time ago. attempted
To control the walking habits Of the
pedestrians. Those who were afOOt
should cross intersections al the
stipulated places. read ethe edict.
The Niennese didn't car for this
sort Of control. however, and after
a few days during which the police
were busy arresting viOlators and
collecting fines and the people we're
spending their time standing on the
corners laughing at their unfortu.
nate c0mpatriOts. everybody seemed
to forget all about the new rules
and-thinEs returned 70 the old
form.
The thing is that the Viennese
couldn't see any n IN the traffic
regulation idea and 50 they refused
to respect the law. They are prompt
70 adopt anything they think will
make their city a better and more
beautiful place. but they Will not do
anything for which they cannot see
a Just cause.
And one more suggestion before
we brlng this tale to 2 close. When
