" U The Path of Prudence in Public Office Remarkable Pronouncement by China's Philosophic President By CHANG LING-KOH (Special Correspondence) Peking.—Undaunted by the dangers confronting his country on every side, undisturbed by the weight of many conflicting responsibilities, Yuan Shlh kai, president of China, still finds time to devote to his chief labor of love, the setting down in official state papers of great truths in pithy form for the benefit of his contemporaries and pos terity. To the most worthwhile Chi nese, as well as to practically the en tire foreign community in China, the mandates of Yuan Shili-kal are an un ending source of refreshing treats. Outside the Chinese classics, and, In deed, the very greatest of these, there is nothing to touch them for truth, wisdom, the gentleness of the father, the certainty of the scholar. And among his finest official uttterances as president of China is the latest of all which might be called The Path of Prudence in Public Office": "The way to efficient administration of a nation is to place only capable men In official posts, and "the most valuable form of loyalty in officials Is to recommend worthy men to the gov ernment. The art of recommendation consist® In finding competent men fori official posts as against the con THURSDAY EVENING, HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH MAY 27, 1915. demnable practice of hunting lucra ti\e posts for one's acquaintances. 1 When base and incompetent persons i scramble for offices, men of character turn away In dismay. True gentlemen who are clean and retiring in nature < prefer to live in seclusion and shun the | society of mean persons. When men of integrity and ability abandon the mediocre and worthless individuals exercise unchecked their mischievous arts to attain selfish ends. circumstances no official would attend conscientiously- to his * n< J al > administrative affairs would lack proper supervision. The deplorable state of affairs during the ' hll ari 'Chin' and the 'Ming' d>nasties should be taken as a warn inK to us. h-,- repu^"c has been kept busy ent work of reconstruction VnS ♦. nOW . we ha " ve not been a* sl * to find time to enforce a thorough hLo'ir'fh* ln , the offl cial realm.

It lis inconceivable how the official ranks and posts, which should properly be held in reverence and awe as If they belonged to Heaven, can be sported and utilized for the purpose of grati fying the desires of friends and ac quaintances. The officials should re member that their salaries are drawn from the people, that the income of an ordinary official is enough to pro vide for nine families of farmers. It is impossible even for Emperors Tao and Shun to give liberally and satify the desires of all persons. Tt Is most unjust for those who do not toil or spin to waste the means for the sus tenance of the people. Moreover, such conditions form a fertile bed for harm ful tares which cut short and make impossible the growth of valuable cereals in the official field. "China is now undergoing grave trials. The times are hard Difficulties and dangers are staring at the country on all sides. Even if we fill all posts with capable men, we still fear that we niay be unable to triumph over our difficulties. If we allow ourselves to be swayed by private and selfish con siderations In making appointments and overlook the maxim of compe tence. we should well ask, Where Is our conscience?' This thought should make us sweat for shame. "The disciplinary regulations for offi cials prohibit the giving and taking of gifts partaking the nature of bribes the asking of favors for friends or relatives, or the abuse of authority for the benefit of one's self or friends. Cases of violations shall be investi gated by the punishment board. The regulations governing the collection of revenues also prohibit the eniplovment of unworthy men on the strength of friendship, and the coercing of officials to employ the persons recommended The prohibitions are hereby reiterated! Hereafter any official receiving requests for favors shall expose the deeds of the offenders whom censors shall Im peach. "The officials who have power to recommend or engage the members of their staff shall use the power dis creetly and wisely and appoint only competent persons." A REAJi AOTOR A lady was walking through the park recently when two little boys, who were playing near by. stopped her. "Say lady, called out the elder of the two, "me kid brudder does fine imitatln stunts. Give me a dime an' he will Imitate a chicken for youse." 'What will he do—crow?" queried the lady. "Naw," replied the boy, "no cheap imitation like dat, ma'am. He ll eat a worm! ' —National Monthly. HOW SHE MANAGED She had tried in vain to get the telephone, but the other parties were using the line. The last time she heard one woman say: "I have Just put on a pan of beans for dinner." She tried later but the women were 1 still talking. Exasperated, she broke in crisply: "Madatn. I smell your beans burn ing." A horrified scream greeted this re mark and then she was able to put in her call.—National Monthly. BRITISH HUT MIKE DYES. Sirs SCIENTIST Professor Perkins, President of Chemical Society, Says Efforts Are Futile Special to The Telegroph Cologne, May 18.— Experiments undertaken under government pa tronage to supply Great Britain with dyes hitherto iiaporto.i from Ger many are meeting with little success. For the first time in history a large part of the direction of the war has been intrusted to a ministry of com merce. This part is aimed directly at the original goal of the war, so far as the English are concerned, the crushing of a commercial rival, says the semiofficial Cologne Gazette. Exhibition of G«*rman Products Its newest activity is an exhibition In Goldsmith Hall, In London, of in dustrial products from Germany and Austria, as far as feasible, with plans and drawings. The board of trade, whose department for foreign models is In this case supported by the offi cials of the Victoria and Albert mu seum, wishes In this way to "advance the co-operation of the manufactur er*. inventors and draftsmen In order to preserve for British business the .trad* In certain kinds of product* I which it is now in danger of losing." Heretofore England imported, these products from the now hostile coun tries in order to resell them among its world-wide clientele. London papers state that the exhi bition is 'uncommonly interesting and instructive. Visitors of the commer cial class praise its great usefulness and state that they had had no con ception of the extent to which the applied arts in Germany were utilized commercially." That is In the last analysis an ac knowledgment of the bitter feeling which the "made in Germany" has called forth. The English are now trying to wrest from others what they were too lazy or too stupid to pro duce themselves. British Fall to Make Dyes In the same category is the distress of the English dye industry. The plan of rescue undertaken by the gov ernment has been fifcnin condemned by one of the most recognized experts. This time It is W. H. Perkins, who is not only professor of chemistry in Oxford and president of the Chemical Society, but is the son of the late Sir William Perkins, who Is considered In England to be the inventor of ani line dyes. We say "considered," for aniline itself was Invented by TTnverdorben, and the first aniline dye was made by Beissenhirz in 1853, both of whom were Germans. Three years later Sir William Perkins first put an aniline dye on the market. Professor Per kins discussed his question of Brit ish manufacture of dyes In an address on the conditions in the organic chem ical industry at the annual meeting of the Chemical Society. Professor Parkins explained repeat- I edly why the plan of the government jis meeting with opposition. He stated j that Sir William Perkins had sold his I factory in 1874 not only because ho | wanted to devote himself to his scien j tiflic investigations, but also because j he recognized that his products could not compete with the rising German competition as long as they did not have a number of competent chemists for the development of the methods in use, and especially for new inve*-. tlons. No Available Scientists Such recruits were sought in vain at the Knglish universities, for of these, especially Oxford and Cam bridge, but also the Scotch universi ties, had not contributed anything in the last half of the previous to the advancement of organic chero. Istry, whereas in Germany, as soon ihe great importance of tar had become known, special schools for that purpose were established by such teachers at Lieblg, Wohler, Ke kule and Baeyer. Professor Perkins expressed his ap preciation of the fact that a few newly founded Kngllsh universities had devoted more attention to or ganic chemistry, but expressed his creat disapproval of the existing Eng lish dye works. A comparison with the German i\\>rks would redound greatly to the discredit of the former. They would have to be equipped very differently and made uniform. For this reason also the proposal of the government to take over the pres ent works was of very doubtful value,
