A dispatch frcm IS.-rlin says th.tt th.- ;?n:i.i ns arn taking delight in doing ninny tlur.R.- thai are "vor-tict-n" and are getting away with it. T!i- i;iws. or the lilies, have not been rcp.-alt-.l hut the SH-upU' disregard mem. So Jong as the old government tvmaiiu-d. penalties for violation of ;i "verbuten" sign were .-wn't and Pure and the average person would nor think if defying it b-nr.use the regard for tne warning had been instilled through Song practice. Now that there is a les rigorous government, a people's g, ..vern inent in name tu least, like children, the p op-.- feel daring. Released from parental control they want to rut capers, so they diwegard "verhotrn" Un.-. They go in loathing where ence they would not have dreamed of such an act and iaugh at the policemen who are helpie.s to deal with fcuca a crowd. The situation Is not asu n ish ing. In fact it is logical. The fear r.f the rigt. rtms 1 lohenzo! iern rule having been removed it might he expected that a bit f license would succeed repress:-)!). N0 longer neb: down by an arrogant caste, it is natural that the common people should h'ive their day and do things that make the junkers ?igh for the old time when authorities were powerful enough to make members of the common herd keep to thir places. It is not stated that they are doing anything very bad. only that "verbotea" no longer carries the authority it once swayed. The situation is an indication that liberty is gaining way in Germany, that the paternalistic feature of the government is disappearing because the people disre- 1

"softness" of which advantage may be taken. A friendly manner creates friendliness. It invites confidence and trust which fortify invested capital as nothing else can. All thla makes for prosperity in which buyera and sellers share. The larger the business the less the hess comes iuto contact with his patrons. His prosperity depends in very large degree upon the impression which the help makes on the "trade." Disagreeable clerks drive away busiuess ; agreeable ones attract and hold customers. The boss cannot ignore the character of the services performed by his helpers. If he is not appreciative, his competitors will be. In large part the constant shifting of employes, especially In the higher stations of business organizations, is due to the bidding of one employer against another for the services of men and women who have proved their worth. Their employment of "proper courtesy" is an important factor in determining their value to the business. Hut if there were no possibility of pecuniary reward for courtesy in bueiness, it would still be worth while practicing. Courtesy makes for harmony and a harmonious organization i one the units of which have peace of mind. It makes one's work easier. "Please" and ' thank you" are not hard to utter. Habitually used they lead to that full considerateucss which constitutes the soundest foundation of success in business as well as all other human relations.

COURTESY IN BUSINESS. Postmaster General Hays' call f,.r "proper courtesy" throughout the postal service emphasizes that the polite amenities discreetly emplove.i jn business act as a lubricant and contribute to dividends of satisfaction in which all concerned share. Long age the traditional steamboat mate's method of reasoning with his rcustabout help went into the discard as a factor in business. The reaction tended in some cases to a fawning sycophancy which proved equally unsatisfactory in bringing desired results. What is desired is that happy mean in which there shall be mutual considerateness by the parties to a transaction. No matter what the. relationships between individuals, thn dispatch of business is facilitated by the exercise of an agreeable disposition on the part of all. A firm character may exist behind a sunny ecuntenance: a velvety voice does not necessarily denote

WHO CARES ABOUT THE LANGUAGE? The French are said to be disappointed over the fact that French is net going to be the language spoken at the coming conference on disarmament. Although; they are accustomed to the legend in Paris store windows, "English spoken here." it is disconcerting to them to think that anyone could suggest speaking English at an international conference. They summon history to their aid to uphold the priority of French. Was there not a time when even English kings and other foreign potentates talked only French? lias not French been at all times the language of peace conferences? The Hague conference, and the conferences at Versailles, were not these conducted in French? French has always been the language of diplomacy, the carefully guarded speech of diplomats. So argues the Frenchman, and lays himself open to an irrefutable answer. The Washington conference on disarmament if it is not going to repeat the follies of Versailles, to say nothing of conferences which preceded that one, will have to resort to a language which has hitherto been but little used in diplomatic circles. We may as well admit it. for we shall learn it later on if we do not admit it now. the language of diplomats has been much too frequentlyemployed in the past to befuddle the pecple. The less diplomacy of a certain kind we have at the Washington conference the better it will be for all the nations of the earth. True, it does not matter in what national tongue the ideas are expressed, but fm the whole it is clear that in the matter of bringing us peace the language cf the diplomats has been a miserable failure in the past. These worthies have never talked the language of the people. When they talk that language, clearly and emphatically, the people will understand, no matter In what ongue the words are uttered. After all, the chief business to be transacted at any genuine conference on disarmament is tnmple enough to be understood by all. We may veil it by subterfuge and distort It by diplomatic language; hut in the end this will only interfere wifh the business In hand. If the representatives who come to Washington from abroad could really feel and express what is in the hearts and minds of the plain people the world over, is there any doubt but what they would all favor disarmament?
