Three years ago Gov. Foss was a mere capitalist, a high private in the ranks of the Dem- ocratic army, which he had joined because of dissatisfaction with the tariff policy of the Republican. Elec- ted to Congress in 1910, he was cho- wen Governor of the Sacred Codfish State in 1911, and this year was among those mentioned for the Dem- ccratic Presidential nomination. Gov. Foss was born in West Derk- shire, Vt, Sept. 24, 1858. After twa years at the University of Vermont, he settled in Boston, where he engag- edin the manufacturing business. He speedily acquired a reputation as a shrewd and alert business man: and financier. Besides. the presidency of two large industrial concerns, ho be- came a director of the Union, Stock Yords Company, the Chicago June- tion Railways, the Massachusetts Electric Companies, the Eastern Steamship Company, the Manhattan Railway Company, the Brooklyn Rap- fd Transit Company, and other big corporations in several States. Ten years ago Mr. Foss began ad- Vocating tariff revision and reciproc- ity, but-he attained Uttle prominence in polities until 1910, when he was elected to the Sixty-first Congress, carrying the strongest congressional district in Massachusetts for the Democratic party. Mr, Foss was very much surprised at being elec- Hed.

The Gov- ernor believes that the policy of high protection is responsible for all the ills that afflict the people of the Un- ited States. High protection ts both a eocial and an economic crime, recently de- clared the Massachusetts Governor. It has been the shelter for the ex- actions of monopoly and the real cause of almost all restraints of trade. Even as means to private Profit it has proved worthless. It is sald that the cost f labor in the United States is so high that the product cannot be sold in compsti- tion with the product of foreign Ia- bor, As a manufacturer I long since discovered that the American work- man produces more in proportion to his pay than any other labor on the earth. His efficiency is unequalled and his wage scale, instead of being an element of increased cost of pro- duction, is a meastire of lessened, cost. The high tariff has. not only checked our commercial expansion and destroyed our merchant matine, but it has also led to a retallatory policy on the part of other nations, and thus rendered the foreign mar- kets still more difficult to reach. Gov. Foss is a member of the most exclisive-and commercial clubs and associations of the Bean City. Inthe matter of religion he affiliates with Sixteen months before: Eugene No- the Baptists. Among the many important mat- ters that will be considered by prom- inent men from all nations st. the filth International-Congress ot Cham- bers of Commerce, opening today in Boston, not the least interesting is the proposal for a world-wide penny: or two-cent postage system. Dr. Al- fred Georg, of Geneva, Switzerland, will introduce reforms to be brought to the attention of the Universal Postal Union at its conference next year. England was the first country to introduce penny postage for domes - tie letters. Sit Rowland Hill was the author of the penny-post system, which soon spread to other countries, as he was also the originator of the money order system and post-office savings banks. The uniform rate of weight was-put-put into effect in 1840. Before that time postage rates in England had varied with the distance, except. that in 1939 a trial bad been given of a uniform rate of four pence per letter. Stamped cov- ers were introduced in 1840, and half- penny postal cards were issued in 1870. Street l tter boxes were first used n England in 1855. In the Unit d States the post-office department was much slower in at- taining domestic penny or two-cent postage. In 1845 the postage rate on letters was from five to ten cents, according to distance, and it was not until 1855 that the rate was recuced to three cents for distances under 3,000 miles. A uniform three-cent rate was adopted in 1863, and a two- cent rate-in 1875. One of the first n: steps toward an international pemny post was taken when the United Commerce Congress Considers Penny Postage for the World one penny per letter for half an ounce a States entered into agreements with Canada and Mexico whereby the two- cent letter rate was made to apply SMuh depends fpon a giil s sur: roundings, her temperment and her occupation.

ETCHING THE HUMAN VOICE Emile Berliner, The-Inyentor of the Gramophone, Tells How He Worked Out His Theorles It is not given to everyone to come into p rsotial contact with one of the great men of the age and an inven- tor at that so: that when I had an opportinityto interview Mr. Emile Berliner, of gramophone fame, with the object of getting to know some- thing of how we came,to have his wonderful machine in common ui I was delighted. Mr. Emile Berliner is not only the inventor and patentee of the Disc Gramophone, preceded by the name Berliner, but is president of. the Berliner Gramophone Company in Canada, which is so well managed by his two sons. I found Mr: Berlin- er, Senior, at bis Montreal office and a delightful victim he proved to be. Of mpdest demeanor, when his own share In the advancement of science was touched upon, he waxed enthus- jastic when the prosperity of the many companies bearing his name came up for discussion. The writer will let. Mr. Berliner fet I filed the application for my first patent n 1887 at Washington, since then we have taken patents in Can- ada, Great Britain, How did it come about that is, your invention?

Cuba, Panama and the city of-Changhai, China, and: ater Great Britain and Germany, how have postal conventions with the United States providing for. a letter rate of two cents per ounce. There has been d great deal of agi- tation for a one-cent letter rate in the United States of late years, but in most respects the United States lags behind European nations in the matter of postal reforms. At the present time the postage rate on pareels from any point in the United States to Japan, China, Austria, France, Germany, Great Britain, Sweden and other foreign countries for twelve cents per pound, while the rate is sixteen cents per pound for same city of the United States. While Switzerland has taken the lead im the movement for a world penny postage, it is expected that the chambers of commerce of all the leading nations will fall in behind and will bring great influence to bear on the coming conference of the Uni- versal Postal Union, The conference of the International Congiess of Chambers of Commerce opening today in Boston is the first on this side of the Atlantic. the first session of this influential body was held in Leigh, Belgium, in 1905. Next year the congress convened in Milan, Htaly; in 1908 at Prague, and im 1910 London was the scene of the the gathering of representatives of commercial interests oF s . Six continents: and forty nations will be represemied in Bos- ton. at all times struck me as formidable was the fact that the self induction of long iron wires or of polarized electro magnets acted so detrimen- tally upon the articulation. Hlectrical Tesistance alone would simply have weakened the sound, but self induc- tion meant retardation, ond this dis- torting of the transmitted waves, which varied in length and ampli- tude. To appreciate fully what an extremely small amount of energy ordinary speech possesses mechant- cally, Iwill ask you to consider a few.

In considering such, and other facts, It became evident to. me that if such delicate energy shoud indent itself into a solid body, it needed but very slight mechanfcal resistance to modify considerably the character of the sound vibrations: for what self- induction is to the telephon circuit, the variable resistance which impres- sible material offers to indentation or engraving at various depths: is to the phonograph record sheet.
