dci, in the ontx of the "publicity
medicine'' which should he applied to
rid tho country of the evils of n
"money truit." Attorney llrnuilci
in the fifth of hi 'erics of articles
on "Breaking the Money Trust. '
which appears in Hnnr's Weekly
todav, discusses "What Publicity Can
Do."
Publicity n Itemed?
"Publicity is jntly commended as
a remedy for social and industrial
diseases," claims Attorney Urnndei.
"And publicity hns nltvndv plnyed an
impnrtnnt part in the struggle against
the money trust. Through the di.
closure of fncts by the Pujo money
trut invcstigsJtion, concernine finan
cial concentrary, Attorney Uramlus
believes an important steo has been
made toward ultimate attainment of
tho new freedom. Publicity nttend
ini these disclosures, according to
lkandeis, hns meant that "the battle
field has been sun-eyed nnd charted
tho hostile forces have been Joontcd
and appraised." Put there must be
a further call upon publicity for ser
vice, pleads Brandeis. "That potent
force," he snvs, "must, in the im
pending struggle, be utilized in many
ways as a continuous measure."
Pointing out that "combination nnd
control of other people's money nnd
business, and tho wealth of the in
vestment banker arc the main factors
in i no development or the mono"
trust," Brandeis declares thnt it has
been the great wealth of the house
of Morgan that has mnde possible
the powerful alliances with great fin
nncinl institutions. The main cause
of such large fortunes, he asserts, is
tho huge tolls charged by those who
control the avenues to capital nnd
investors "n toll that is literally 'all
that tho traffic will bear ". Contin
uing, Brandeis snys:
ExccMira Charges
"The question is asked: Why have
these excessive charges been submit
ted tot Doubles because of banker
control; exercise through interlock
ing directorates, or kindred relations,
nnd indirectly through combinations
among bankers to supples competi
tion. The investor's servility is duo
probably to hid ignornnco of facts.
Coming to tho remedy for these evils,
Brandeis snys:
"Tho bankers' c ompensntion
should, of course, vary according
tho risk ho assumes. Where there is
n largo risk that the bonds or stock
will not bo promptly sold at the issue
price, the underwriting commission
(that is, tho insurance premium)
should bo correspondingly large. But
the banker ought not to be paid more
lor getting investors to assume a
larger risk. Now the Inw should not
uiiuunuKo (except incidentally in
connection with railroads and public
sen-ice corporations) to fix banker':
profits. And it should not seek to
prevent investors from making bad
bnrguins. But it is now recognized
in the simplest merchandising thnt
thero should be full disclosures. Re
quire a full disclosure to the investor
of tho amount of commissions and
profits paid, and not only will invest
ors be put on thoir guard, but bank
ers' compensation will tend to ndjttsf
itself nutomnticnlly to what is fair
and reasonable."

OF $1 7,500 SALARY
BKHLIN, Dec. 17. Justice .lames
Witt. -on erard, I'nelo Sam's antha n
dor to Oermnny, will not bo "home
less" much longer. Ho ha- found a
"home'' in which the American eagle
can servant without being ashamed
of himself, and which is rapidly be
ing put into shape for occupation. A
real estate agent has pocketed a fat
commi ton nnd a latulloril or
rather a landlady is happy to have
so profitable a tenant.
But that is only otto of the little
troubles that makes the new ambas
sador or minister regret tho contri
bution he made to the campaign fund.
Ambassador Gerard's demands m the
way of a house were mode-t. Al
though ho pays j-lo.OOO of his $17,
000 salary as rent, the new American
embassy would not attract even tss
ing notice for exterior elegance on
Fifth avenue or the principal re-i-dence
street of other American cities.
Gerard's hou-c-huntitig troubles have
been similar to those of Page in Lon
don, Penfield in Vienna, where the
American embassy it still in a hotel,
nnd of Minister Vopickn in Buchar
est and of the new nmbassndor to St.
Petersburg.
Berlin is looked upon as more or
less of a "hoodoo" among Uncle
Sam's foreign post's. Probably more
ambassadors "fell down" or failed to
"mnke good" in Berlin in recent
years than in -any other cnpitnl.
Charlemagne Tower was more or less
ridiculed in tho American press for
his cxclusivcness, the social dash he
cut and decking himself out in a blue
nnd gold uniform and gilt sword. Da
vid Jnyne Hill, scholar and states
man of dignity nnd ability, had not
much more than settled himself down
before he was called upon to re-ign.
it wns snid, for a "successor who
could contribute more to the repub
lican campaign fund. Under John O.
A. Leishmnn, ittsburg steel magnate,
who was fond of claiming the late'
J. Pierpont Morgan as his iwrsonal
friend, the Berlin embassy was virtu
ally ignored by the big American col
ony because of the laleged anti
American attitude of Lei-hman's
wife nnd two daughters. Perhaps
under no nmbsasador was the Ameri
can embassy as unpopular with
Americans as under I.eishman. Suits
nnd charges in Xew York nnd Paris
pave rise to reports that he was us.
ing his official po-ition with ndvan
tngo in speculating on the stock mar
ket. The engagement nnd marriage
of. his daughter Xancv to Duke Karl
of Croy, made such talk nnd incurred
the displeasure of the kniser. who
failed to receive Leishmnn in the cus
tomary farewell audience nnd did
not "ive him nnv token of his regard
as he did Hill and Tower.

stated, there tins beeit a steady
growth In the gooil-rours movement,
so thnt today about 34 states have
highway commissions or sotuo other
form of highway agency. State np
proprlntlotts for road work have In-'
creased trout two million 10 years
ago to forty-three million tn VJ12. i
The relation ot the federal govern-,
mettt to road construction and rond I
management Is pointed out, j
The federal government should

experimental work and shotiM do-)
volop principles of co-operation with
the states In matters of educational
and demonstrntlonal work, tt seems
desirable that tho federal govern
ment should deal with the statu as
the lowest unit, through nn expert
highway commission ns Its ngenry.
This policy would eliminate the diffi
culty of the federal government's de
termining local Issues ns well as the
danger of undue centralized federnl
control.
In order to stimulate this policy
and to prevent undue Inroads on tho
federal treasury, federnl aid, when
ever extended for construction nn I
maintenance, should be furnished on
condition that tho states provide nil
appropriation ivt least douhlo that
voted by tho federal government.
This would furnish nu automatic

The plan should provide for main

In order to prevent the possibility ot
tho construction of roads many ot

bonds placed upon them are paid.
The seeretnry raises tho question
as lo what roads should be Improved.
