A REAL KING.

LADY ASTOR RETURNS.
AMERICAN ENGLISH.
Kins Zosu. »f Albaniu, pulled
down the fl»s of the republic and
made hi-nself kins. A stalwart
Albanian of the old kind that used
to chase travelers with bear hounds
Zosu has modern ways, with a neat
little moustache, clipped' on both
sides in the modern fashion, and
more medals than Marshal Foch
had.
Some a.»ked will Zogu be a real
king. But no more doubt. He
rested 200 conspirators against
throne, hanged eleven and will prob
ably hang more.
The answer by President Coolidge
and Secretary Kellogg to the Franco-
British plan for a naval agreement
notifies Europeans, none too soon,
that this is an independent country,
not a British or French dominion.
It is reiHrefhcng and reassuring
to read in the plainest kind of Eng
lish that the United States “cannot
consent to proposals which would
leave the door wide open to un
limited building of certain types of
ships of a highly efficient combat
ant value (to France and England),
and would impose restrictions only-
on those types peculiarly suitable to
American needs.’'
This nation should now build what
ever it NEEDS. Cruisers, submarines
and airplanes, especially the last two.
Lady Astor, born in Virginia. busy
now in the House of Commons, re
turns to the United States saying.
“The women of the world are organiz
ing for peace.” They have always
hern organizing for peace, and manu
facturing sons for war.
Arp-rican “talking movie?," seen
and heaffl in England, arouse en
thusiasm and prediction that the
rilent picture is doomed.
British critics suggest thnt Amer.
ican actors should “cultivate Oxford
accent.” They don’t like our brand
of English.
Perhaps the talking movie will
teach them to like the American
language, just as they have been
taught by our silent movies to like
*nv>r!cT.n clothes and frome other
things.
Alcoholic drinks under prohibition
are -arious. In the South “white
mule" powerful alcohol made of
corn, is popular.
In th« Middle West “needled”
beer is drunk by workmen. It is
“legal” beer, orginally containing
alcohol, bm brought up to a high
alcoholic percentage by “needling’
with alcohol, procured by redistilling
denatured alcohol bought at gaso-
New York City speakeasies,
rounding newspaper and other plants
sell “smoke,” a deadly alcohol with
n little ether added to give t!
cloudy “smoke" effect. This drink
