Power in old iii-o is magnifi
cent, seen occasionally, not
often.
Von Moltke, straight as nn
arrow at 90, dominating wher
ever lie went, had power.
Bismarck, walking up the
hill from his little inn at Gas
tern in the Austrian Tyrol, an
orderly with n switch walking
iihead of him, on his way to I ell
I he Austrian and German em
perors what to say to each
other, possessed power amazing.
It showed in Pope I.eo's
transparent face when he cele
brated his golden jubilee in St.
Peter's.
And Padi-rewski, 71 years
old, posssessed it yesterday af
ternoon as he walked across the
stage in Carnegie hall to play(
for the young people's symplio-ny-philharmonis
concert.
Kvery human being in the
great hall, crowded from the
floor to the topmost gallery,
rose as he entered.. He was
there, ''not. to entertain, but to
pommand, and impress.
: He played with the power
and spirit of youth and the au
thority of age. "Musical .critics
will tell you how and what he
played. ' The important thing is
that.'his power .of personality
plays lipon: the-'ima.g'tta.tions 0f
men and rules thdm." Hoech
fetes glueck der erdenkinder sei
nur die persoenlichkeit, says
Goethe.'
If any young musician is dis
couraged, let him remember
Paderewski's experience. In
tending to play the violin, he
consulted a famous German
teacher. The latter said to him :
"You will never be a musician,
so you had better play the
piano." .
In old days, a man with one
million dollars was "a million
aire." That modest pittance no
longer means anything. A "mil
ionaire" in the financial lan
guage, is one who has one mil
lion or more of yearly income.
; In 1928, 511 Americans told
.Uncle Sam they had incomes of
one million dollars or more.
Several have fifty millions a
year, and at least two or three
have more. They represent the
the beginning of our billionaire
class. Tlii'rc arc probably six,
certainly four, men in the
I.'nited States worth a billion.
And that harms nobody, of
