Walter Itathenau was a great in-
dustrialist and financier before he
made a move in the political field.

La As n great industrialist he
still found time to study philosophy
arid politics, and to write on them
with a freedom, originality and
daring which would have given
hint a foremost place among Ger-
man writers if his reputation as a
thinker had not been overshadowed
by his reputation as an industrial-
ist.
In 1893, at the age of 26, Walter
Rathenau was already at the head
of a large concern for the produc-
tion of alkalies by electrolysis. His
father, Emil Rathenau, was at the
head of the Allgerneine Elektrizi-
tats Gesellschaft, even then an im-
portant concern, though nothing
like the tremendous industry that
Walter afterwards made of it. But
father and son could not get on at
first in the Ram business. Emil
Rathenau belonged to the old and
cautious school—a man capable in
his own line, but timid outside of
it. Emil Rathenau knew nothing
of finance, and modern industry is
as much finance as business. Ile
feared modern productive methods,
hr was reactionary in his attitude
towards the workers. Walter, even
at that age, was a skillful financier
and had wide views on production.
Thus it came about that Waiter's
industrial successes were achieved
at first independently of his fath-
er's business. It was only at the
age of 32, when his reputation was
already made, that he became a
member of the board of directors of

LEAGUE CHANGES ITS
MANDATE PROCEDURE

The public records prove that Detroit needs the

C RONICLE

to pay taxes in order to support
our city government and to see
Detroit progress as it is entitled
to, but the people are complaining
of unusually high taxes and I firm-
ly believe they are justified in
their complaint.
We are all aware of the fact
that, because of the increased traf-
fic congestion in Detroit, some
street openings and widening!
have became a necessity, but due
to the heavy tax rate at the pres-
nt time, we should proceed very
slowly in this matter and finish
what we have already begun be-
ton starting others. We have
taken in a large amount of new
territory. The people in this ter-
ritory are demanding. and quite
properly, that they should have
sewers and water and those things
which are necessary to a healthful
condition as sanitary and protec•
tive measures. Outside of this,
any proposition should be scrutin-
ized very closely and kept at such
■ minimum as can be done with
safety to the welfare of the city.

Common Council, born in Detroit

Mr. Ford in his letter to Louis

The Hammer Verlag, Theodor

The expulsion from the interna-
