healthy, ambitious young man. In
his brccjjy way he told them he
thought they ought to nsMtra him of
a tension iu cnc ihev failed to agree,
adding that he would turn the job
over to his son when the latter was
30 years old.
ine sailor prince ot n seagoing
people came to Chriitianin with n
fixed purpose. Ho would make him

managing director of Norway on the
Hen, the greatest maritime organiza
tion upun the en i th.
His majesty, Haakon II, granted me
an audience in his studv nt the royal
)Kilace, the American minister, his ex
celleney, Albert O. Schmcdmnn, pre
senting me nnd remaining- during the
two hours' talk.
The great room is simple nnd bus
inesslike. Tho only note of luxury n
semi-circle of silver framed photo
graphs of half the crowned heads of
Europe. Above all stood a bronxe
bust of Edward VII of England,
father of tho Norwegian queen.
Ilk front of the big fireplace stood
a great revolving .globe and nearby
the king's big armchair and tho little
chair of the boy who must some dnv
ho. ling.
His mnjesty smiled nnd explained
that Olaf, his sont prefers to study
geography with his father instead of
with tutors, because both father and
boy are sailors at heart.
Then the king proceeded to talk to
mc.Ywuag, sleadcr nnd very tall, he
siit before Iiis desk table as matter of
fact and forceful as a successful
American business man. He spoke to
me in .fluent English, smiling occas
ionally and lapsing into American
slaBg.
He told me that he thought the
United States or any other country
ought to bill contraband of war hon
estly, tot Pctrograd or uny other
place. That then it would be up to
the enemy o protest or stop the
(ransKrtntion of the goods. Hut for
the United States or any other coun
try to bill goods to Bergen, Norway,
from Bergen to the frontier nnd then
from the frontier to points in coun
tries nt war, he thought was not true
neutrality.

"As Norwegians who haw taken

"Your love is true to your old home

then he advocated their ust but prudently.
Then we talked of Euroo after the
war nnd of socialism, for even Nor
way, homeland of democracy, has its
socialists. Tho citizen king told how
recently ho uncxjicctedly encountered
five socialist members of tho Norsk
parliament. With his usual direct
ness he sought their acquaintance, al
though they had refused invitations to
visit at his house. f ' "'
The king was busy telling them thnt
if ho were a workman ho would bo a
socinlint, when an official photog
rapher focused tho group nnd the ap
prehensive socialists fled. Not one
of them would stand nnd have his
picture taken with the king.
War had hardly been declared when
the managing director of Norwny-on-ihe-Sca
conferred with his state
council and told them that for fear
fond supplies would soon run short,
war bread should be made the fash
ion. But tho council outvoted him.
However, having spoken his mind,
tho king promptly assumed charge of
the poor of rhristianin nnd he went
on to teJ! me how eager everyone wan
for public service. How quickly n
charity fund was rai-cd nnd how ex
ponents of various schemes for relief
urgent the paramount iniKirtnuce of
their divergent plans. When the in
evitable deadlock ensued he told how
he had been called upon to arbitral
and he went at it liko an American
man of affairs and relieved the situ
n t ion.
Too much interested to remember
thnt I spifkc with a crowned head, I
spoko of my visit, to Itusin and the
threatened Russian revolution.
His majesty .said he wa,s iio sum
that tho Russian revolution was cer
tain. But he said ho had talked with
the czar regarding the best way to
prevent the outbreak., Had told him
to give the Poles nujonumy, let (ho
Little Russians, Georgians and Ar
menians enjoy homo jilc and, nation
ality undisturbed. Icstoro peace to
the Caucasus by recognizing Ricir
rights and cease trym.it to Russianize
Finland. That aJnnc. the king (old Iiis
Russian cousin, and there would lie
no desire for revolution.,
Having finished sHiikjug, the king
leaned back nmLsmiled atjtne n boy

Ho, seemed quite uqednscious o
having sjiokcn one of the greatest mU
liticnl truths of our time. And the
political wisdom of thnt opinion
