As chairman of the governing board of his father's colos- sal electrical company, young Rath- , enau speciali-ed in directing its fin- ancial operations, which covered the entire globe and represented inter- ests worth $1,000,000,000. Like nearly every modern young German business man. Rathenau speaks English like a Londoner, PrenCla like a Parisian, and Spanish like a grandee. He can quote Daiite In Italian, and knows more about Tolstoi than most Russians: He has toured Europe from Archangel to the Bay of Biscay, and can write •with equal ssthority on economic condttions In South America or the United States, both of which he has visited and studied. Metropolis of Asia Minor. Smyrna, where a revolt is report- ed to have taken place against Ger- man influence, is by far the greatest city of Asia Minor, It has the fur- ther distinction 01 having preserved an unbroken record from the dawn of history to the present time. Its favorable situation between Lydia and tbe West raised It as early as the seventh century (p.c.) to the height of splendor and power. A Greek city, it lost its plane afterwards by foreign conquest, for three hundred Years. It is mentioned by Pinder, and in the New Testament; Alexan- der the Great conceived the idea of restoring it, and Lysimachus en- larged and fortified it. Afraid of Roumania. The Cologne Gazette is showing symptoms of fright as to Roumania's action. It declares that the Rouman- ian army, numbering 450,000 men, 600 modern guns, 300 machine guns, and 18,5110 cavalry, is ready to enter Lhe war on the side of the Allege There is no doubt, it declares, of ltoumania's attitude.
