Here's No. tl Modest Bruening Devoted to Duty; Likes His Radio llv Louis 1. Lochner BERLIN (P) Tuning in on the radio Is the only recreation- of Helnrich Bruening. German chancellor. Smok ing heavy cigars incessantly is his only "vice."- ' t The man who guides Germany s political destiny today is ' a slim, smooth-shaven, bespectacled, ascetic bachelor who not only preaches sim plicity, but lives It.- . When, last January, he mado a tour of bleak, cold Eastern Prussia. President von Hindeiiburg- was so worried lest' this unassuming states man neglect to take warm, clothes along that he' sent him his own fur coat. - ' Throughout that Journey, Bruen ing declined having anything more opulent than "hot dogB" and potato salad served in - his-private- car. ' Likes to Work Lute !. Bruening ' is seldom at his desk before 10 o'clock. However, he never retires before 2 In the morning. One reason, -perhaps, why he has his way In the cabinet is .that his mind grows more active the later the hour. Tne ,.eatative powers of his colleagues usually have broken down by then. Not that Bruening runs over them rough-shod.- His patience, in -the cabinet and in parliament, seems in exhaustible; But unless the opposi tion presents Indisputable facts and figures, he sticks adamantly to his plans. -i . .1, . Beading financial and economic periodicals, especially American and English, constitutes Bruen lug's fa vor I to "relaxation." Detective stories or wild west tales are foreign to him. The heavier his reading, the more re freshed he feels.." When tuning in on tho radio, he looks for stations where talks on economics aro scheduled. ..; ..

Bruening has no use for ''so ciety." . - .
