NOT MUCH GAINED
BY NERVOUS HURRY
Wrong Kind of Speed Big
Waste of Effort.

Speed, of course, like everything
else, is comparative, and no doubt
the present tempo of the worlds
dance is faster than il used to be-"
said Mr.. Cato Ninetails, but | infer
from casual references | come across
in my reading that there has always
been more or less complaint by
some people about the hurry and
furry of others. That is all probable

very much in the manner that so
many people do nowadays. Further
more. then as now, there were a good
many things that had TO be done in
a hurry. and somebody had to do
them, just as there are now, in spite
of such warnings as the more haste,
the less speed Nevertheless / must
agree that there is now, as there
doubtless always has been. not only
too much hurry. but that a good deal
of it is the wrong kind. and is conse-
quently extremely trying on the
nerves.
Back in the old horse-and-buggy
days-a phrase that is now seldom
used except for the purpose of scorn-
full cOmparison-there was an express
sion pushing on the reins' that was
often used in criticising nervous
haste. II couldn't be termed back
seat driving. though ii probably ap-
piled most frequently 70 the back
seat, because even the driver might
be so affected. 1t implied. of course.
an eagerneSs 10 reach the end of the
drive. and a desire to increase the
speed of the vehicle Pushing on the
reins' accomplished nothing. TO be
sure; it was not even relief TO the
emotions of the pusher; and had only
such tranquility as would have made
the journey easier.
Now, it seems TO me that the
trouble with a good many of US is
that we are still pushing on the
reins'; that is. we are hurrying with
our nerves. which in the nature Of
things can achieve no good, instead
of hurrying with our muscles, which
Is bound to take US somewhere,
though what ii accomplishes is
question of direction. Harrying with
our muscles will make us muscularly
tired. which seldom does any harm.
and may do some good by inducing
the relaxation of sound sleep; but
hurrying with our nerves seldom does
anything other than harm, and in
stead of sound sleep is likely to cause
insomnia, than which nothing is q
greater bore.
eff any worthwhile deduction is TO
be reached from personal experience
with both kinds of hurry, IL most I'M
doubtedly is that we should do all
our hurrying with our muscles: but
I'll have TO admit that If will take
quite a bit of doing for everybody
except those tranquil-and enviable
souls to whom it comes natural.
Most of US are melted TO hurry mere
~ by our nerves. and it is pretty diff
cult to install a new and improved
SET Of nerves.
what makes the case all the
worse is that after doing something

Mink stated that there were more
than 10000 unemployed seamen and
that many were starving. The petition

Official Reveals.

LONDON, October 24.-Sir John
Simon, foreign secretary. revealed to-
day that European deadlock continues
over the proposed Four-power Emer-
gency Disarmament Conference because
France and Germany still are unable
to agree on a meeting place.
Pressed for statement concerning
the possible danger of Germany re-
arming while the Disarmament Con-
ference is progressing, Sir John said
the purpose of the emergency confer
ence was to prevent such course, but
that no definite statement Of German
policy has been made.
Addresses Commons.
The foreign secretary made these dis
closures in an address before the House
of Commons.
Great Britain proposed four-power
conference before the General Disarma-
ment Conference, set for November 8.
1t was for the purpose of settling
Germany's demands for arms equality
made public about two months ago.
Germany announced its withdrawal
from the disarmament conference unless
these demands were met.
Geneva Rejected.
The four-power conference was to be
participated in by England, France,
Germany and Italy. The German gov
ernment refused to accept Geneva as
the meeting place because 1t was the
seat Of the League of Nations and the
scene of the General Disarmament Con-
ference. 1t was said unoff1cially in
Berlin that any other Swiss city would
be unacceptable.
Norman Davis, American disama-
ment representative, was in conference
at No. 10 Downing street with Prime
Minister Macdonald and Sir John.
The meeting added strength to a be-
lief in British quarters that a new
Anglo American declaration on dis
armament will be made soon II Mr..

PARIS. october 24-Italy's new ap-
peal for a clean slate on war debts has
served to concentrate the attention OF
France on tomorrow's session Of the
Chamber of Deputies, where the entire
debt question is expected to be aired.
interpretations on the debt question
the December payment of s2O.o0o,ooo
IN interest on the debt to the United
States-are expected to be deposited In
the Chamber
Opinion Divided.
Opinion as expressed in authoritative
quarters appears to be divided into three
categories here:
|. That France should make no pay
ment On the December interest, be-
cause it would serve as dangerous
precedent and create the belief that the
entire debt will be paid.
2. That the payment due in December
should be made with the reservation
that this payment be taken into ac-
count when the debt is finally adjusted.
8. That negotiations regarding depts
between the United States and France
should be hurried Immediately after the
American elections on November D. Wlth
the hope that the problem would be
solved before the date the interest is
due, December Is.
French opinion recognizes that tne
problem is complicated by the so-called
commercial debt" due on war stock
purchases-a debt which is linked to
the so-called political debt but which
France accepts must be paid.
Studies Arms Problem.
Meanwhile, Premier Edouard Herrlot
also was giving his attention to the dis
armament problem. En- route from
LEM, where he urged world peace, the
premier last night said he was conf.
dent Europe would evolve system OF
security against war.

ficulties," he said Il ask you to have
