(By PETER KEEGAN1 MANGUS JOHNSON cam* in like a lion and went oat like a lamb. The first visit of the Minnesota fire eater to the seat of the Government passed without material incident and ended with the Farmer-labor Sena tor declaring that President Coolidge not only made a "good impression", but that he was "a nice man." Visit ing royalty could not have attracted more attention than did Magnus, foi scores of newspaper correspondent! trailed him all over town. He seemed to enjoy it, too, but surprised everyone by failing to cut loose with his famous and much-advertised loud speaking voice. The Washington Post explained Johnson's unexpected quietness and equanimity by the edi torial statement that "there is some thing in the very atmosphere ol Washington which is as destructive oi radicalism as a serum is of disease." COL. GEORGE HARVEV will quit the diplomatic business January 1st, 1924. Harvey has had a hectic two year term as American Ambassador at London, and he is figuring on com ing back to the United States to di vide his time between his personal affairs and national politics. Some Republican leaders want him to serve as Coolidge's campaign manager, a job for which he is fitted. JIMMY DAVIS the Secretary of. Labor, is about the busiest man in the country these days, and he's hav ing a most enjoyable time showing David Loyd-George the United States and vice versa. The fact that both men are natives of Wales is a tie that binds them closely. The for mer British Premier will be enter tained at the White House before his return to London. RECENT REFUSALS of Great Britain to help the United States stamp out liquor smuggling along the Atlantic Coast has not dampened the ardor of Secretary of State Hughes in getting some kind of an interna tional agreement to help the phohib ition officers dry up the seaboard. His latest effort was made through Am ' bassador Harvey, who grasped the op portunity afforded by the conference of British Premiers to make a new plea for co-operation with the big gest dry country in the world. Next month negotiations will be opened at Ottawa to draw up a reciprocal anti smuggling treaty between the United States and Canada. STUDENTS OF International af fairs are trying to figure out if any change has been effected in the Rus sian situation as a result of the World's Dairy Congress in Washing ton. In welcoming the delegates on behalf of the United States, Secre tary Hughes, although he didn't know it at the time, extended the official glad-hand to three accredited repre sentatives of the Moscow Soviet It's a little thing in itself, but it is little things from which momenous events. Officially, however, the Administra tion says that it does not like the Rus sian Soviet Goverment and won't have anything to da with it polit ically. RECENT REPORTS might indicate that Henry Ford's plan to operate Muscle Shoals in the interest of the farmer, had gone glimmering. When Secretary Weeks sold the Gorges steam plant to the Alabama Power Company, it looked as though the lat ter had won out in its long fight to keep Ford out of waterpower devel opment and out of Alabama if pos sible. "When the fact becomes known back home that Muscle Shoals is be ing sold piece-meal to private inter ests to defeat Mr. Ford, there will be trouble in -store' 'says a prominent official of the American Farm Bu reau Federation. It is known that Mr. Ford has thought of carrying his case direct to the people whenever sufficient evidence accumulates to make it plain that he is being treated unfairly. The cooperative kraut factory in Watauga County has already manu factured about 80 tons of kraut to date. County Agent John B. Steele says the industry will bring from $80,000 to $50,000 of new money into the county. ADMINISTRATOR'S NOTICE Having this day qualified as admin istrator of the estate of E. L.
