UNIQUE GERMAN CHARACTER
HAMBORN-ON-THE-RHINE, Ger
many.—Nov. 27.—One of the most im-
I portant wheels in the German war ma
chine is August Thyssen, in ante-el
blum days coal and steel magnate of
the first rank, but now, in view of the
industrialization of the army, General
i Field Marshal of the industrial army
I and collaborator and confidant of Hin
■ denburg. He is small and frail, but
powerful as an industrial leader. Not
withstanding the tremendous scope of
his work, he clings stubornly to old
fashioned methods fvhere he himself
is concerned.
He will not tolerate a stenographer
for his personal use, but writes all
his letters by hand. His correspond
ence is large, much larger than ha |
can attend to, along with his other:
duties at his office. So he takes what 1
is left over home with him to his only j
luxury, his castle home near Kettwig, ■
and after dinner finishes it, if it takes!
until the wee small hours of the morn
ing.
Despite his enormous wealth he has
never personally owned an automo-i
bile, nor will he ride in one to save
his own time. He goes and comes
from his home to his office on foot or
in a street car. He wears a modest, |
v,ark-colored business suit, instead of!
the formal “morning suit” so gener-;
ally affected in Germany, and looks 1
less like a multi-millionaire than the;
average clerk.
From the very outset of his climb!
from comparative poverty to great;
riches, and above all to very great l
ri hes, and above all to very great re
nown as an industrial leader, Herr I
Thyssen has steadfastly refused titles I
of all kinds.
In the late 60's he founded an iron j
establishment in Duisburg with his I
total capital of 8,000 Thalers (about |
$C,000) and in 1871 moved his plant
to Muelheim on the Ruhr, where there
later came into existence the plant
“Deutscher Kaiser,” which today in
cludes one-tenth of the coal lands of
Westphalia and gigantic steel mills.
Just before the war there were em
ployed some 20,000 men and the coal
fields contained some 370 millions of
cubic meters of coal. He is now the
principal ow - ner of half a dozen huge
industrial projects in the Rhineland.

enjoying the week’s outing with al) '
ire pleasure attending such occas
ions.
