LOS ANGELES, February 1.— Young men of the United States are not learning the ten trades important to building, according to the annual report of the com- mittee on labor of the Associated General Contractors of America, whose fourth annual convention continued here today. These trades are those of structural fron workers, -~ plumbers, carpenters, painters, brick mgsons, roofers, plasterers, paperhangers, bullding laborers and stone cutters. With the exception of the first three. the report stated, there wero actually fewer workmen in 1920 than in 1910, and only the struc- tural iron workers and the plumb- ors in their increase had kept pace with the increase In the popula tion of the country. The report named two causes for the ten-year decrease. The first was the cutting off of im- migration by the world war and later by restrictive immigration Jaws. The second was the fact that young Americans were not learning the trades. FOREEN SERVEE ONLAP OF DS Future Usefulness Declared to Hinge on Fate of Rog- ers Bill in Congress. PROVIDES MANY CHANGES Would Put Diplomatic and Con- sular Offices on Same Plane and Increase Pay. BY FREDERIC WILLIAM WIL! Whether the United States is ever to have a foreign service worthy of the name depends upon the enact- ment of the Rogers bill, just report- ed favorably by the House committce on foreign relations. The bill is the culmination of six years' incessant effort to put our diplomatic and con- sular services on a business basis. { Successive Congresses and regimes at the State Department have struggled with the problem. For a variety of reasons real progress Was never achieved. One man has kept ever- lastingly at it—Wilbur J. Carr, di- rector of the consular bureau, since 1909 and an official of the State De- partment uninterruptedly since 1892, Mr. Carr disclaims authorship of the Rogers bill, but his friends declare it is the product of his brain. If the present far-reaching attempt to “reorganize and improve the for- elgn service,” to use the language of the bill, is abortive, the diplomatic and consular branches of the United States government will continue to be the playground of politiclans, pa- tronage-mongers and young men fresh from the “gold coasts” of fash- ionable universities. May Prevent Wars. Merely efficient and ambitious Americans, as since time immemorial, will find it impossible to embark upon a career which should comamnd the services of the most intelligent and most enterprising men in_the country. Secretary Hughes has chris- tened his department “the Depart- ment of Peace.” Upon the activities of its representatives in foreign lands. conceivably, might some time depend the issue of war or peace for the United States. Those who urge the importance of passing the Rogers bill are stressing that point. They hope it may carry weight with members of Congress accustomed to look with disdain upon “furrin affairs” and con- sider them a miserable side issue. There is, in fact, no issue that out- ranks in importance the necessity of manning our embassies, legations and consulates abroad with keen-witted The idea behind the Rogers bill is that we shall not find that kind of men uniess inducements to dedicate their lives to the career. They must have what Sa uel Gompers terms “a living wage'— according to the cost of living at their points of service. They must have the assurance that they will not crapped” at the end of long and faithful service without retirement al- lowances. . Purposes Explained. In a letter to President Harding, Representative John Jacob Rogers of Massachusetts, who sponsors the for- eign-service bill, epitomized its pur- poses as follows: 1. The adoption of a new and uni- form salary scale with a view to broad- ening the field of selection by elimi- nating the necessity for private in- comes and permitting the relative mer- its of candidates to be adjudged on the basis of ability alone.

The present range of consular salaries. is from $2,000 to $8.000, with two posts (London and Paris)) at $12,000; that of diplomatic secretaries from $2,500 to $4,000. The proposed new scale would subdivide these posts Into nine classes, ranging from $3,000 to $9,000. The interchangeabllity 'provision is of prime importance. "It will permit transfers of diplomatic officers to the consular service, and of consular offi- cials into the diplomatic branch, Some of the long-intrenched diplomatic set traditionally have looked askance at consular colleagues. There may be a “social lobby” agalnst the feature of the bill that proposes at a swoop to blot out the distinction between dly)omsts and consuls, and label them all henceforth “foreign service ofi- cers with equal rank. Members of either House or Senate who may shy at the Rogers bill on the ground of expense need to be re- minded that Uncle Sam's forel, service is an asset and not a Ilnblllf; Recelpts from passports and involce foes mount up & total vastly in ex- cess of the actuual cost of the diplo- matic and consular branches. At one other primary thing the Rogers bill aims—to put our foreign-service men on 8 level approximating that of their forelgn colleagues. The ignominy of small pay and lack of official hou: ing facllities under which our repr sentatives abroad now suffer i1l be. comes a country whose Treasury is bulging with nearly two-thirds of all the gold there is in the world.

OF THE TWO STOMACH NESS OF MAN OF AL MAN ‘AND A WITTEN AMERICAN IMPRESSIONS By EMILE COUE VIIL From the moment he lands in Ameg- ica a European feels the impression a machine; he feels compelled to-fit himself into its complicated works —or resist the movement shot off into sterile isolation. Ef- floiency, system, standardization — these are, perhaps, the main reasons for such an impression. There seems to be no room for anything or any- body ineficient. They would throw the machine out of gear. Efficiency begins directly you step off the gangway from the ship. Sys tem directs you to the exact spot where vour baggage will be found and guides you to the customs officer who is expected to examine it. The porter who handles your belongings ndles both them and yourself like a machine, and, before you realize what is happening, you find yourself in a taxicab, which has drawn up to the curb at the precise moment of your own arrival. As for the bag- gage. it has slid down a chute into the arms of a squad of stalwart men, iwho have only just time to rescu it from an avalanche of other pe [ ple’s trunks and bags trying to over- {take it. If you were not there at ‘!he right second to claim your prop. lerty T'suppose it would be hopelessly jlost, for there can be no time to put iall aside and sort it out afterward. { That is the danger of extreme. ma- chine-like systematization. If a hitch occurs everything goes smash. Efficiency Core of America. The core of America is efficiency. goes right tbrough everything. You encounter it at every turn. In my hotel room I take up the tfelephone receiver, and almost before I put it to my ear the operator's voice is asking {what number I require. That is un- {heard of in France or England. It is the little things that strike a stranger —little things that are unnoticed by the native inhabitants. And those ap- parently insignificant ~details that spell efficlency are innumerable every city of America that I have visited. In the hotels and restaurants there is promptness of service, an absence bf blunders or misunderstandings. smooth-running organization which is very impressive. The theaters, the moving picture shows, the subway. ithe surface cars, the taxicabs are a few among a host of examples of the leMciency and system found in every phase of human activitv. There is a general desire to please which is most soothing amid the hustle and turmoil of American life. “Smile!” commands a big cardboard notice finside the doorway of the cafe and other pub- lic rooms of the hotel which T know the best in New York. A New Conception. And the suggestion has its effect. On the menu cards at the same hotel, as well as on other leaflets issued by the same establishment, is notice to the effect that the management wel- comes any report from visitors of special attention or service rendered by any member of its staff, because it wishes to recognise efficiency.

A boy in knickers, covered with coal dust after a ride from New York in a coal tender, handed this message to a Traveler's Ald worker at the nion station this week. ~ He re. quested with an alr of importance that it be wired to his father in New Yorl for him. The worker looked at the boy a second time. Adrolt questioning ellcited the In formation that his name was Sammie Goldsteln and that his home was New York city. The local Traveler's Ald Bociety immediately got into com- munication with the New York society. An investigation showed that the parents of the boy could not afford the money for his return trans; poration. The local society arranged it, and he went back to New York in a passenger coach, yesterday after- noon. Three other boys and a girl arrived in Washington unaccompanied this week and became tion of the society. tep years old, came to this city from D{rllnglnn. Okla.

Larner, president of the Washington Loan and Trust Com- pany, also treasurer of the society, that is a new_conception. It is good psychology. It also denotes a com- prehension of the principles of auto- suggestion. Hitherto it has been the custom to invite clients, or visitors. or customers to report inattention or negligence with a view to the pun- ishment or reprimanding of the of- fender. Mark how much more ef- fect the new way must be. First, on the employe, who is encouraged by positive suggestions of good serv- ice and its reward; secondly, on the client, in whose mind is thrown the suggestion of contentment and the desire to look for efliciency, instead of a negative suggestion of fault- finding. In every way the idea is sound and the use of it clever, A particularly interesting feature of the all-pervading efficiency here is the part played in it by the for- eign element. It is a well known fact that the United States absorbs and assimilates foreigners more thoroughly and more quickly than any other country. But I confess {that I am amazed to find how com- pletely Italians, French and people of other nationalities who have made their homes here have absorbed the peculiarly American _temperament, copied American methods and adopted American ideals. In the matter of efficlency, for instance. the forelgn employe in New York is as keen and convinced as the true-born American. Efficiency seems to be equally as nat- ural to him as to the latter. Tendency to Overdo. This is all very admirable. But Tam wondering if there is not a tendency to overdo things. System, standardiza- | tion and clockwork efficiency are cer- { tainly desirable, and they do much to 1 { make life run smoothly. o Yet, intui- tively perhaps, I seem to discern dan- ger in overstraining to reduce abstract qualities to mathematically perfect equations in actual practice. It may become an obsession, like any other notion, however good in itself. I often have to remind patients of this when 1 see them making autosuggestion into a sort of monomania. Extremes meet, and it is quite possible for a system, if pushed to excess in compli- cated elaborateness, to break down completely. simply because it seeks to provide for every contingency except human Intervention. No room is left for play in the joints. The other day 1 heard of a man who was lost to ail his friends for a whole day in a large New York hotel, famous for Its terrible efficlency. What was the reason? Merely that, as a result of personal in- fluence on the part of a member of the staff, he had been allotted a room with- out going through the regular machin- ery of the establishment. 1 belleve this danger of subjecting everything and every one to machine- like Tule is real in America. But I also believe that Americans are far too idealistic at heart not to curb the ten- dency in time. Efficiency will sta; not the excesses of a materialism and a rigid. “mechanicalism” due to the exu- berant vigor of a young, pushful and perfection-loving people. (Copyright, 1023, United States.

Chairrian Cordell Hul) of the der- ocratic national committes, in a statement issued from democratic headquarters last night on the result of the special election for the national House of Representatives held in the nineteenth district of New York, claims that the election of the dem- dcratic candidate was *a body blow to republican expectations.” The statement cites pre-election state ments by republicans that this elec- tion would prove a clear test on na- tional issues based on the record of the administration. Mr. Hill said the party’s “hopes were dashed” by the democratic candidate's success, “be- cause vast numbers of republican voters in this New York district in- dignantly repudiated the Fordney- McCumber system of tariff robbery” and “because the voters there, as they are everywhere, are in open re- volt against the entire Harding ad- ministration.” , Baruch on “Farm Credits” Why should the farmer have credit facilities that are denied to mer- chant or manufacturer?
