JOHN DOE SAVVY NO LINGO

By WESTBROOK PEGLER United News Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, Aug. 29. —Unless John Doe, a black man now president of the municipal lodging house, buckles down to the study of one of the thirty-seven languages and dialects more or less common in New York City, he will continue to be the loneliest man in a city of six million. John can’t even order ham and eggs. x He can't ask “What's the score?” and he wouldn't understand if you told him in Yiddish, Gaelic, Esperanto, French. German. Sudanese. Swedish or what have you? He couldn’t hold up his end of the conversation with William Jennings Bryan. Even when, as a final, despairing test, a bailiff of the bridge plaza court, rattled a set of dappled little jungle jujubees within the hearing of John Doe and crooned in the universal language of brunette sports men, "Pair of box-cars, roll to poppa," John Doe just smiled that exceedingly friendly smile of his and muffed the play entirely. John Doe speaks a language. He is neither idiot nor loafer, /or he is alert and intelligent and fias proved his willingnes to work for his lodging in the city's hotel. In thirty days as the guest of the city of Babel, poor, lonely John has
