and many others as well. Latin
America, however, remains my best
single source. And while Spanish is
the predominant language in some
80 so-called Latin American coun-
tries, it also includes countries and
islands where the official languages
are Portuguese, English, French and
Dutch.
Outside of English, the two most
important languages today are
Spanish and French. That is to
say, person undertaking service
work in hotel should be more or
less conversant with these three.
This would take care Of practically
all travellers from any part of the
world. For example, Portuguese is
so similar to Spanish that the per-
son understanding the latter tongue
would be able to pick out what is
wanted if spoken to in Portuguese
In addition to this, most educated
Portuguese and Brazilians have
studied French and can get along
in that language. Scandinavians
generally understand English, but if
not they surely understand German
With this equipment, it is not SO

Decades Increase
Popularity Of
Rolling Chairs

ATLANTIC CITY, Feb. A.
The Boardwalk rolling chair,
almost exclusively an Atlantic
City vehicle, which was first
introduced in 1887, Is still a
popular feature In the resort.
The late George Hayday at
first rented the chairs to inva-
lids. who found the Boardwalk
chair rides stimulating. but
later learned that persons In
the best Of health also enjoyed
the chairs. The chairs, which
are constructed here. were later
enlarged to accommodate two
or three persons. There are now
some $500 in use.
Every one who has ever visit

has started under the moon in
a Boardwalk rolling chair.

Fear of the future is bad medi-

sees as the immediate calamity not

Americans and 'rumor susceptible"
people begin to hoard their resources

Americans are fortunate" said
Mr.. Johnson. "World events of the
last two decades have made it feas-
ible for them to become a Nation Of
world travellers. Americans live on
an economic peak. Every year, es-
peclally in the summer season, they
swarm across the valleys of the
world-valleys of favorable ex-
change countries. With this ex-
change. with rebate concessions,
reduced fares and low-cost visas
abroad, European travel is open to
Americans who otherwise might
have to stay at home. European
luxury has been brought within the
reach Of thousands of Americans. ;"

establishment of Mrs. Waters new

that the travel industry expects to
whip discouraging war talk.
The day when the European trav-
eler will return the Americans call
by touring the United States in
great numbers is not yet at hand,
declared Mr. johnson.
The Englishman goes to Southern
France, SWitZerland-anyWhere his
father and grandfather before him
went, it seems. The unfavorable
exchange is major consideration
in keeping him from discovering
America. Re- establishing or re-
versing the rate of exchange would
work the same disadvantage on the
United States traveller who wished to
see Europe.

German-American Bund leader, in
Guiding his "keenly sentimental in
terest" in a Mrs. Florence Camp,
IN an attempt to show criminal in
tent in Kuhn's alleged embezzlement
of $5,641 in bund funds.
Prosecutor Herman j. Mccarthy
In his 30-minute opening address
at Kuhn's trial on larceny and
forgery charges. described the hefty
bund "fuehrer" as a powerful
leader with complete control of the
bunds affairs.
Mr.. Mccarthy said the bund itself
was a strong" organization, with
number of Affiliations, including
the German-American Settlement
League, which early in 1898 estab-
lished Camp Siegfried at Yaphank,
Long Island. under the leadership
OF Ernest Mueller.

ceSsor to an organization known as
The Friends of New Germany"
Defense Objection Overruled.
Peter L. F. Sabbatino, Kuhn's chief
counsel. objected vigorously to the
reference to The Friends of New
Germany" but he was overruled.
Judge James Garrett Wallace re-
peatedly overruled the defense law
yer, and at one point he said
severely:
Il wish you would sit down."
Kuhn smiled at the opening of the
trial yesterday as Judge Wallace
warned prospective jurors that issues
of race or political belief had no
place at the trial.
Judge Wallace promptly excused
one venireman who said he could
mot stand Adolf Hitler" and re-
buked him thus:
I'VE will take it for granted you
don't like a hair on Hitler's head.
But that is not the point. If it is
shown that the defendant has been
guilty only of un-American activi-
ties he can walk right out of that
door free man"
District Attorney Thomas E.
Dewey, calling the Kuhn case "rou-
tine turned it over to his assistants
for trial. A bund newspaper earlier
had contended Mr.. Dewey was per-
scouting Fritz Kuhn and Americans
OF German blood" in a bid for the
Republican presidential nomination.
Possibility arose that Representa-
tive Martin Dies, Democrat, of Texas,
chairman of the House Committee
Investigating Un-American Activi-
ties, would be called as prosecution
witness.
Assistant District Attorney Nc
Carthy read to the talesmen
yesterday a long list of names,
including that of Mr.. Dies, and re-
marked those mentioned might be
called as witnesses. Kuhn has been
questioned at length by Mr.. Dies in
stormy appearances before the House
