TO- Year Experiment

Fruits

CAMDEN, N. j., Nov. s u.N.SO
From the ranks of Americas great
industrial families has come a re-
cruit who promises to contribute
substantially to scientific progress
in the immediate future.
He is Charles J. Young, eldest
son of Owen D. Young.
Charles, who received his bach
elor of science degree from Har
ward University 10 years ago, is
engaged on a series of expert
ments here that will. among other
things, greatly improve aerial OBJ
servations in war time. He and
his dozen engineer assistants have
made possible the radio transmits
sion from plane to ground of
maps and tactical graphs hastily
sketched by an artist-observer.
Service Invaluable
Government military experts
have found this service of great
value. Batteries of artillery car
get actual graphic accounts of
shell fire effects within a minute
after the shells have been fired.

United Press stan Correspondent

BERLIN. Sept. 24-If there is
one name on the lips Of the Ger
man people today more than that
OF Bruening or Hindenburg, it is
that of Adolf Hitler. He is the
watchword Of youth, fiery apostle
of freedom from the wars heritage,
preacher Of race hatred and prom
User of Reich unshackled by
tribute.
His rise to the spotlight has been
rs spectacular as the menace of his
doctrines to the stability of present.
day Germany. And strangely, his
personality, although it dominates
100000 votes, remains as intangi-
bic as many Of his theories.
Hitler is an agitator. All those
who hear him addressing a crowd,
agree as to his personal magnet
ism.
Qualities Desert Him
In a personal talk, or with
group Of four or five, this quality
somehow deserts him.
His magnetism is somehow gone,
and he gives the impression of one
who is struggling to maintain a
pose-that he fears direct and per-
sonal exchange of ideas-perhaps is
Walling himself up to protect an
inner sense of insecurity.
Hitler is AZ, middle sized, inclined
TO weight, When he is talking a
lock of hair falls down over his
forehead.
In personal conversation he gives
the impression that he is unable to
concentrate his thoughts, that he
is not quite sure of them. He talks
rapidly, not so much for empha-
Sis, rather he gives the impression
he Is trying to convince himself.
Never Answers Directly
His facial features are irregular
and undistinguished; the hands are
very long with slim fingers.
In lecture hall he is all ac-
ton. He gesticulates and stares his
audience direct in the face.
In private he never bothers to an
swer question directly. He stares
at the questioner, then braces him
self and puts a counter question
which usually consists of What has
that to do with the subject?"

America-WOrld Banker

In the short space Of time since the World war. tn.
United States has risen to the position Of the worldl
leading banker. and 1t does not seem at all likely that Il
Will vacate that important position in the near future
Foreign lending on a large scale began in 1915. when
over $8o0,000.0Oo Of new capital loans were offered in
this market. In 1915, foreign loans totaled $l,l5e,O00 900.
During the war and for some time after the armistice our
government made loans to the associated nations to q
total of 10000 900, 900.
Figures compiled by the investment division OF the
Department OF Commerce show that In the years 1914
to 1880, loans made to foreign governments totaled nearly
$l2,75oooo0oo. BY adding this stupendous sum to the
loans previously made, 1t will be seen that q total Of
So. o0oo 100000 was advanced to foreign nations during
and after the wnr.
As a result Of sinking fund payments and debt retire.
ment in other forms, only $4,000, 100000 Of the $l2,75o,-
600 900 above referred to was outstanding at the end
Of 1890.
Speaking on this subject May 2lst, at Washington,
Grosvenor M. Jones, head Of the finance division Of the
Department Of Commerce, declared that this nation. IN
its new role Of world banker, has played its part like a
veteran. 1T Is my belief" he said, that we shall con-
tinue to play the part worthily, despite the discourage.
ment Of recent defaults in the obligations Of a few for
governments, and in the face of a very serious eco
nomic depression"
