Drivers often find that leaders become too
wise after few years. They grow overbear-

One well known racer had leader who was
in the habit Of running on three legs now and
then, pretending that he was hurt, whereas all
he wanted was ride on the sled. The driver
cured him by putting him among the lesser

allowed to run in front he showed no more signs
of cunning.

LONDON, May 24.-It is prob
able that Friedrich Sthamer, q tall,
loquacious, gray-haired, sad-faced
man, soon will be leaving London
after having won one Of the great
est victories a German eve achiev-
ed IN England. For Herr Sthamer
was the first after-war Ambassador
from Germany to the victorious
English foe and his was a post In
which character had to tell IN a
superlative way.
After the war was over and the
Treaty of Versailles finally signed,
the rulers Of the crippled young
German republic had to think Of
picking up the normal, everyday
threads Of intercourse with the ma
tons of the world. The two hard
est diplomatic posts were admitted
~ those Of German representatives
in Paris and London
In past times. when Prussia was
a powerful military nation, and,
afterwards, when Germany was a
mighty empire, a long line Of very
clever diplomats had been sent to
the Court Of St. James'S. And they
were all noblemen - baron Won
Bunsen. Count Bernstorff (of the
same family as the man with SIM
liar name who was Ambassador to
the United States before the war;,
Count Muenster, Count Paul Hatz-
feldt, Count Metternich, Baron Won
Bieberstein and, lastly, just before
the World War, Prince LichnowSKy.
The Germans had one or the
finest houses In all London as
their embassy. It is situated in
swell Carlton House Terrace, right
at the steps which lead from the
Duke Of York's monument and
overlooking the famous Mall. Be-
fore 1870 it was always known as
Prussia House" Both before and
after the Franco-Prussian War It
was the scene of many a resplen-
dent ball and reception.
With such a house, such q back
ground and such a post, the lead
ers Of the German republic were
puzzled as to their choice. They
finally decided not to pick a noble
man at all. nor even a career Dip
lomat. They thought they would
do like the great and successful
American republic and choose some
citizen who had distinguished him
self in other walks of life.
That's how Sthamer came to be
chosen. He was a lawyer by pro-
feSSion, who had made a speciality
OF trade matters. He had been a
senator from his native town OF
Hamburg and as such represented
that free city" in the old German
B~undeSrath. He was afterwards
Burgomaster Of Hamburg. During
the war. In which two Of his sons
fell at the front. he was named
civil administrator Of the great
city Of Antwerp and conducted his
office with justice.
Herr Sthamer accepted his office
with some misgivings. He was not
even sent a. Ambassador, but mere
~ as Charge d'Affaires. 1t was a
try-out for him. AS Ambassador.
he would have carried credentials
from the head Of the German state

that was quickly followed by Brit

don. All doors were open to him
now. But he had done more than
that. All outstanding questions
between Germany and England
had been settled. German wares
were openly sold In London shops.
German opera was sung In London
by German singers. German box
ers fought British boxers. German
athletes came over and competed
with British athletes. German
business men patched I'D their
broken connections. German visi-
tors began to come over. The war
and its bitterness had begun to
recede into the past.
The retiring age for German
diplomats is usually 65. But his
government asked him to hold on.
He was too invaluable to lose. But
now that he Is nearly 20, he has
asked to be relieved. It Is thought
his successor will soon be named.
The latter will have an easy time
OF it. The hard work is over.
