Rosen thai. Who Has Just Re . turned From Trip. " Jacob Rosenthal, local shoe dealer, has returned from a seven months' trip abroad, and JbV thinks more than ever of Portland. Mr. and Mrs. Rosenthal visited practically all of the large cities of Europe during their tour and spent a, considerable portion of their time in BerUXi.,Xi:!':..;U,i. ,.5. 'M -'j.v "Berlin, to my way of thinking." said Mr. Rosenthal, "Is the most beautiful and bet kept city in the world. The streets there are so clean that one might eat on the pavements. In London and Paris the reverse is true. ; These cities are dirty and 111 kempt. London Is es pecially dirty and disagreeable when the wind blows and the dust and filth is scattered broadcast. VI was much surprised with the prog ress being made In Berlin and Germany gcnerallyw.The . foreign countries all seem prosperous, though they have "the same complaint there that we have In America about the high cost of living. The cause of this condition in Europe Is muoh the same as It is In America. People generally are flocking to " the cities to live. They apparently will not go back to the farm and naturally there Is scarcity of foodstuffs and the high price of commodities is the result. , "In all of our trip the best thing we saw was the statue of .Liberty ' as, we entered New York harbor after half a year away from home. s ".In the east business conditions are highly; satisfactory and the general im pression is that the country is on the eve of a great era of prosperity and progress. . f. "Each one of the three leading pres idential candidates is considered a safe man to have in the chief i executive ohair, so that no matter which one Is elected, the country will go tight ahead. This feeling of confidence In the nom inee is the reason there is less bust ness depression this year than is usually the case In presidential campaigns. ' "Portland still looks like the best city in the country to me, and I told the Europeans and eastern people about it whenever I had a chance." . Mr, Rosenthal says he absorbed some new latter-day Ideas In a business way while abroad and that he will make use of : them lnthe,new store . which, his firm will .occupy In the near future.
