Experiments at Johns Hopkins showed
that mother rats, exceptionally afIec.

from manganese in diet, 50 that they
turned away from their offspring. Their
affections were restored with the man

from the diet Of the young, their moth

maternal attentions. What it all means
must be left to the doctors and the
chemists. Even they are not yet sure.
But the possibilities, Of course, for

Reich Wholly Decapitalized;
Britain Loses Gold Heavily

istic member Of ordinary international
society
That is why some bankers think that
the Labor government Of Great Britain
might know better how to turn the
trick than the altogether conservative
Government Of the United States
The best observer who recently has
returned here from Germany is Dorothy
Parker, wife of the novelist Sinclair
Lewis. Her writings have been a per-
feet prediction of recent German out
comes. She has been visiting Wash
ington and she seems to think it pos
sible that there may be created in Ger
many "capitalistic dictatorship"
Such a dictatorship would suppress
the anti-capitalistic majority sentiment
of Germany by force and would there
upon be able to promise safety to i'm
ported foreign capital.
But such a dictatorship would neces-
Sarily have to include the conservative
wing Of the National Socialists" who
are violently anti-French and who We
hemently demand big ornaments and
the adjustment of reparations.
II then Germany gets a radical gov
eminent, 1t moves against capitalism,
and If 1t gets reactionary govern
ment, it moves toward war.
At present it has a middle govern
ment which cannot move at all without
foreign help.
Only Safe Government.
It is acknowledged TO deserve that
help, as being the only sort of German
government that can keep Germany
from becoming either excessively So
cialist and Evolutionary on the one hand
or excessively Nationalist and belliger-
ent on the other.
The situation comes thereupon to
its final phase.
Where can private investors be found
so hardy and so adventurous as to i'm
peril their personal money on a long
term chance Of saving an anti-capital-
istic Germany to be an enduring pillar
of the capitalistic system? London and
Paris and Washington do not at pres
ent see them anywhere
The only remaining alternative is
that the capitalistic governments them
selves should guarantee the proposed
indispensable long-term loans to Ger
many.
That is the ultimate move on the
board on which the Hoover debt move
was the mere opener. Conviction &C
cumulates that the rescue of Germany
Is wholly beyond private efforts. 1t
requires the efforts of whole peoples
as represented in governments that can
spread and carry the risks.

testimony to the fact that somewhere
along the way some one more discern
ing than themselves awoke in them
qualities and aptitudes of which they
themselves were quite unconscious. One
of the finest things we ever do In life is
this sort of discovery and revelation to
another of some latent quality or gift.
We sometimes think, especially in our
later life, that we are moved to what
we do very largely by current events
and passing circumstances. We do not
believe that this Is generally true. We
may adapt our habits of dress to the
fashion of the hour, but these con-
slant external changes do not neces-
sarily affect either our thinking or our
habits. Talking recently with one of
the financial leaders of our generation.
I noted that he repeatedly referred to
the days of his boyhood and the humble
circumstances that attended his youth.
He was really boastful of the homely
soil from whence he had sprung. We
thought him the greater because Of the
handicaps that had attended his early
way.
Yes, days Of remembrance. have their
distinct value, and without them we
lose much Of impulse and inspiration to
carry on. In our religious experience
we constantly refer to the events that
marked the first expression of our reli-
gious faith. We may have wandered
far away from our early convictions, but
1t Is remarkable with what tenacity we
hold to them in days when life is
strained TO the utmost and our courage
at low ebb. Repeatedly I have seen
strong men who had, in a sense, dis
avowed their religious faith yield again
to the long abandoned habits of prayer
when a crisis was at hand. We some
times think we outgrow early impress
Sions and that the memories Of other
days are altogether lost to us. Expert
ence and observation run counter to
this view. and it is our deliberate convic-
ton that the men and women who are
the strongest. who WELD the largest in

ton, are those who turn again, fire.

Survey Will Reveal
U. S. Buyers Habits
BY HARDEN COLFAX.

For the first time definite first-hand
information on regional differences In
the buying habits OF the American pub
lie is to be obtained by Government
authority, so that merchants will be
able to gauge the market possibilities OF
the territory served by their city or
town.
The Department Of Commerce an
nounces that 1t has decided upon an
extensive program Of surveys OF mer-
chandising practices and buying habits
for different sections of the country
and for specific industries. A few
rather isolated examples OF differences
in buying habits are known. The sub
ject has been studied in a general way.
Up to the present, however, no private
agency nor the Government itself has
ever obtained exact data on buying
habits, which might be valuable TO ousl-
ness men in determining what KIND OF
merchandise Is likely to find favor or Is
losing popularity in their localities.
SURVEYS of particular industries In
particular regions now Is being under
taken by the domestic regional division
of the department. The results Will be

You hold yourself to q gentle mood
And toss it big bouquet.

The world will seem rosy

And WELD the briar with reckless thrust

Taxicabs are making life inexpensive
at present. In the past, railroads would
have rate wars during which transpor-
tation was almost given away. 1t in
variably happened that when the war
was over, rates went up to a figure
high enough to secure current profit
and cover past losses. A rate war is
merry war for the cash patron, but its

overlordship.
The Greek Minister, M. Chara-

Pageants, and the singing of

The pageants depicted scenes
from the seven-year struggle the

dence of their ancient nation,
which was successful in 1880.
