MELLON, Secretary of the Treasury, salled for Eng- | land yesterday. - He was on | i board the Cunard liner Maure- tania when she poked her way out from Pier 54, New York, and at sunset was well out to sea. To the e reader this fact will mean . except, that he is absent from the United States. To his friends and assoclates in the department of the Government over which he presides it means that for the first time in many months Mr. Mellon is resting. To them the opportunity he will have to relax for a few days is of prime importance. Mr. Mellon is nearly 77 years of age Had he remained in private life. he would very probably have been retired from business to enjoy the leisure that | retirement brings. 1In the public service, | to which he came fairly late in life, he has no lefsure of any kind. except on such rare occasions as the present. when, perforce, he must cross the Atlantig. Working on Ship. even this week he will not be entirely free. It is an open secret that he carried away with him a weighty pie of papers, over which he will work the Mauretania plows along Late “uesday night a special messenger made the trip from Washington to New York {th a final sheaf of papers for th Secretary’s attention. His vacation™ will be nominal in this respect—he took with him work enough to last the But, hermore, he will never be out of 1 of e radio system of communi- cation.

He is a princip: in a machine that must continue to function. He keeps up the pace the job demand Friends Marvel. Even his closest friends. those who know him best, marvel at his capacity for toil. Physically he is not a robust he is frail and thin. He does not symbolize power as one is accustomed to vision it. He is obvi- ously not an athlete. But it is not accurate to speak of him as being “all nerves” A man_under tension could never survive so long in such alrcum- stances. The explanation appears to be Mr. Mellon actually likes work. He been in harness for half a century Possibly he entered business life with an ardor sufficiently passionate to car him througt 1 indefinite carcer, [ sibly he cultivated an affection, for duty In any it-is surely trué that the Secretary loves his daily task. He would that | be miserable if he were not surpassingly busy. The American people, if not people of all tlie rest of the world, are benefited by his devotion, a fact tha can be set down without reference to political_ division or party strife. A man who formerly was eng: d in purely private business has for more than a decade given his time and energ to public business.
