"I don't expect any chivalry
from politicians because I'm a
woman," said Mrs. Johnson, who
is o n ly five f t t h roe and w rs
her sandy Riey hair in a. cluse clip
ped boh.
I've fought a man's fiht ever
since I was a nirl in .Sweden and
I expect to go on. Politicians will
oppose me hecuuse I'm a woman
and u socialist expect it will be
a battle, but 1 dn't ask any u,uar
ter." . Mrs. Johnson is no feminist. She
doesn't believe a woman would
make any better mayor than a
man. In her opinion it is a matter
of "persons, not sex."
She hopes, however, to make a
change in the educational system,
so that "the younger noneration
will get a clearer idea of the prin
ciples of socialism," and she hopes
"to give the transportation system
a little jolt which will put more
speed into It." - .
Kvery morning M is. Johnson,
who hi t4 is ediiin- of the socialist
labor paper, 'The Weekly People,"
with her hoiue. in Brooklyn and
her office in .Manhattan, walks
across Brooklyn Bridge to her
work, after the fashion of the late
Mayor (i ay nor.; And every morn
ing she "bent the Manhattan
transportation systeln across the
bridge." . ;
Mrs. Johnson was reared in a
socialist home in Sweden and at
11 determined that- the plae fur
her . and her ambitions was in
America.
"She came to the United states
and made her way to Minneapolis.
She operated a machine in a fac
tory, washed dishes and waited
table in a restaurant, worked as a
housekeeper in private homes, and
on the side managed to acquire a
high school education.
After her marriage to Oscar
Johnson and his subsequent deuth,
she came to New York, entered
Hunter college and gained the col
lege degree she hart always cov
eted. .
. Meanwhile she had plunged into
the activities of the socialist-lahor
party. Kleven years ago she be
came editor of "The Weekly
People."

King Zog's Country Changes
WASIUNC.TOX (IP) A century
ago August 8. the first locomotive
operated In the western hemis
phere, the famous "Stourbridge
Won," chattered over hemlock rails
protected by strip Iron.
As the hundred-year anniversary
passes in ransportatlon history,
the country sees a new epoch be-1
Kin with the "iron horse" teamed
with aircraft as an auxiliary.
Where today the continent is
spanned in the slender space of
4S hours, the little engine chugged
along at four miles an hour.
The epochal trip was made from
llonesdale. Pa., with . Horatio
Allen, engineer of the Delaware
and Hudson canal company, at the
throttle. .
. The engine, with a gigantic lion's
head painted on the front, coursed
three miles into woods towards
Carbondale, Pa., part of the time
over a wooden trestle, and was re
versed for the return journey.
The test run revealed that the
tracks were too weak to support
the seven-ton locomotive. Another
run was made September 8, 1821.
after which the "Lion" was dis
carded. It had heen originally intended
that the engine would haul trnlns
of coal from the company's mines
in Curbondnle, pa., to the western
terminus of a canal, a distance of
11 miles. The canal, completed in
1 S2 H, extended 1X miles from
llonesdale to P.nndotit, N. V., on
the Hudson river, thus providing
a water route from New York City
to the valuable anthracite fields of
northeastern Pennsylvania.
The locomotive was designed
and built by Foster, Hastrick and
company of Stourbridge, Kngland,
and delivered In Nnv York at a
cost of $2,914.00.
Three other locomotives were
purchased at the snmo time, the
"America." "Delaware' and "Hud
son." HecauP nf the weak track,
designed for thre-ton engine, all
four were discarded.
At the time the "Htourhridgp

track In the I'nlted States, and

"WASHINGTON iVP) Changes
have been breath-laklngly swift In
tho capitat of Europe's newest
monarchy: Tirana, Albania.
Seventeen years ago Albania was
a province of Turkey. Kor a brief
interval before the World war It
was an independent monarchy,
ruled by a Merman prince.
The country was occupied by the
entente in lit I T and then became a
republic. In 1 ! 2 ft Ahmed Hog Zogu
was made its president. Last Sep
tember, President Zogu became
King Zogu. Anil within the last
few weeks tho king has changed
his name: He Is now King Xog I.
Albania was virtually n n nn- I
known land before the World war,
and Tirana was as little known as
the rest of the country, the Na
tional Geographic society points
out.
Durazzo, the chief city, and now
the port for Inland Tirana, was the:
capital in those days and the most
visited spot in Albania. Tirana lay
only 20 miles inland, but the road
was almost impassable and tho
only mode of conveyance was by
springless ox-cart or by donkey
back. Since Tirana was made the cap

changed. An excellent highway
