George McManus to Buy

To the roster of well-known Americans
who-maintain country estates in Ireland
there is to be added shortly the name of
George McManus, the cartoonist and
creator of “Bringing I'p Father," who
slipped quietly away from this country
on one of the steamships sailing last Sat
urday, and who, by the time he returns
late in July, will be the “landed proprie
tor" of a broad Irish demesne.
As far back as 1913, while visiting a
lifelong friend who inherited Clonally
House, at Ballygawley in Tyrone, from a
gnat uncle. McManus became inoculated
with tae desire to own an Irish home
some day and for part of every year en
joy there the charms of Irish country life
and saturate himself with the beauty of
Irish scenery. The following year, while
the plan was still urgent in his mind the
war came. Until this year the war, and
the changes which followed it, and his
own work have compelled him to defer
the putting into effect of his intention.
Highways and By-Ways
of Lil’ Or New York
By RAYMOND CARROLL
(Copyright. 190, by Public Lodger Company.)
NEW YORK. May 13.—What will the
United States be like In 2022? Herbert
Hoover. Secretary of Commerce, came
over from the national capital to Join
the Sage foundation discussion of next
century plans for New York City, the
gateway of the world Into America. But
none of the distinguished speakers, who
included 1 'hu Root, Brig. Gen. John J.
Cany anu :->bert W. Do Forest, took
into account t s r probable change in the
United States during the next bnndred
yea rs.
Why provide for a beautifully polished
front door before blueprinting the house
Itself?
Therefore, we herewith daringly pre
sent a fantastic page out of the book of
the future, which as like as not may
prove to be a prophecy.
Let there be darkness again.
A fantasy.
The sr.me being & broadcasting radio
bulletin of a Cabinet meeting which
solved the problem of too mudh light.
Scene—Floating capltol, somewhere In
America.
Time—May 13, 2022.
Occasion—A Cabinet meeting In the
Hanging White House.
"But, Mr. President," exclaimed the
Secretary of Amusement, lifting his
hands In a gesture of expostulation.
"Never mind the amount of expendi
ture, Mr. Secretary.” aaid the President,
with the emphasis of finality, adding:
"Your department has become the key
stone In the arch of government. You
must not forget that la the 2020 general
election we were swept Into office upon
our air-snt pledges for providing more
new amusement. Give the people what
they want. If they have wearied of the
‘dial system’ and our radio programs
supplied free of cost to them In their
homes, you must develop fresh enter
tainment for them. The Cabinet, the
majority of Congress, sitting from their
homes, and myself will back yon up.
What have you to tell us and to offer?”
Before the Secretary of Amusement
could speak, a third voice rasped Into
the controversy, that the Secretary of
State:
‘•Something must be done to keep out
foreign amusement propaganda, as the
Germrusscs are getting through our air
curtains on the Atlantic seaboard, and
the Chinojaps have pierced our ether
walls on the Pacific rim.
“Unfortunately, our fifty-year treaties
drawn In 1024 took no account of the
possibility of foreign message-dropping.
In vain I have protested through our
representative at the Geneva Association
of Nation*.”
‘‘That is a matter which, since the
abolition of the Departments of War
and Navy, properly belongs In the De
partment of Commerce, whose head re
signed last month,” reported the Secre
tary of Amusement.
“Proceed with future plans and your
survey of present conditions,** impatient
ly Interposed the President.
Then said the Secretary of Amuse
ment, reading from an Illustrated memo
randa which bashed in letters of radio
white on the surface of the mica-topped
Cabinet table:
•‘There are now Installed radio re
ceiver* In 10.000.000 American homes and
500.000 additional or.ee In the community
centers, thus reaching the full quota of
200.000.(100 our last census population
figures. We have furnished, and are still
doing, a twenty-four-hour service ever
since the private broadeaating stations
were taken over and put under Govern
ment operation. Passing Into every
home and radio group along different
radio wave-lengths simultaneously, are
varied services, procurable at any hour
by the simple turning of a dial.
“The different services are: 1, domes
tic and foreign news; 2, dance mnslc; 3.
health bulletins; 4. light and grand
opera; 5, educational services, elementary,
secondary and collegiate; 9. commercial
bulletins with stock reports; TANARUS, radio
dramas; 8, progress of Government; 0,
humorous monologues; 10, crop reports
GEORGE McMANUS.
But let a man in Ireland oqce announce
(hat he Is captivated with things Irish
and not a war lasting a century will suf
fice to blur the effect of his announcement
upon those Interested —If they like him —
in having him come to bide among them.
In the nearly ten years which have passed
since McManus declared himself in love
with Irish life his friends in the green
isle have watched carefully for oppor
tunities which they thought would at
tract him and have kept him informed of
what was offering In the market and
why.
He will spend a long vacation at his
estate every year after he takes it over,
and will manage to make his first resi
dence Include Christmas. He has always
believed In long holidays—insists that All
work and no play makes Jiggs a dull
boy. Mrs. McManus has gone to Ireland
with hitn and. as he says, probably will
tip the balance of choice if the choice
gets very narrow.
and weather forecasts; 11, selected scan
dal, and. 12. foreign crime.
"Engaged In the gigantic task of put
ting the interesting, educational and the
diverting affairs of life before our cltl
tens are 20,000,000 operatives—one-fourth
of the adult population of the country—
former proprietors and employes of daily
newspapers, theaters, schools, universi
ties,, opera houses, lecture bureaus, con
cert halls, telegraph and telephone com
panies, prisons, etc.
"The Federal radio manufacturing
plant reports sufficient dials, marked for
the twelve distinctive services we render,
on hand in the Government warehouses
to serve double the number of families
now using Federal radio and equipment
of receiving antennae sufficient to supply
the entire world.
“But from our central distributing
headquarters In each of the four dis
tricts Into which the country Is divided,
have come disquieting reports. The peo
ple have apparently grown tired ot the
isolation of amusement. Information and
education to their homes. The number
of families leaving ground homes for
quarters in the aerial houseboats of the
floating communities Is constantly In
creasing. Particularly the radio uni
versity graduates, and tbo youngest set
have begun to clamor for a change In
tj>e entire amusement system.
“Our Installation, wherever desired, of
radio projections of the motion picture
drama has failed to curb the mutterlngs
of the dissatisfied ones. Manifestations
of this disturbed state of mind are most
markedly being voiced for the return
of passenger train berths, suburban trol
leys and steamship cabins as obtained
when our present freight carriers were
popular as a means of personal travel,
before the radio brought everything to
the home.
“The licensing of private venture In
the operation of restored newspapers,
theaters, universities, which was discard
ed a half-century ago, Is being frantical
ly urged. A favorite method of protest
against what we are giving is a com
plete shutting off of the Incoming radio.
“To meet this new situation the De
partment of Amusement has opened the
borders of our land to an around-the
world-non-*top airplane contest, of ori
gin In foreign lands, with slight satis
fying effect, as the passage overhead of
the competing foreign air vehicles has
only served to whet a desire of our
young blood to participate In these cos
mopolitan races.
"Another and very singular develop
ment of the national revulsion now mak
ing Itself evident Is directed against tho
great blessing of continuous light be
stowed by American science through the
Instrumentality of the Government upon
our citiiens. There has been an increas
ing demand for shades. Our public,
even In the light, seeks the dark. In this
movement for the falling of shadows a
leader has arlsed. one John I). Rocke
feller —grandson of the famous ‘petro
leum king* of the last century—who
through his great wealth Is carrying for
ward an effective publicity campaign from
his private wireless stations, which he
has managed to keep out of Government
control by a court Injunction pending a
decision from the Supreme Court, the
purpose of which bold campaign Is noth
ing less than the advo<*hcy of greater use
of shades.
“Mr. Rockefeller has a monopoly In
shades. On the recent occasion of the
Federal broadcasting of our President's
splendid message outlining the new plan
for their withdrawal from foreign posts
of all our diplomatic and commercial
and their replacement by
the substitution of Illuminated speeches
and salesmanship arguments radioed
across the seven seas, crowds in many
parts of the country attacked the Gov
ernment agents and destroyed the am
plifiers bearing the message.
“Had there been newspapers, we would
have heard of this condition much
earlier. As secretary of amusement, my
conclusion Is that the American policy of
isolation reflected in our present system,
llNiilAlXA* JUtaiibl HiVIES
has reached a crisis. If w hope to sur
vive another general election, something
drastic and far-reaching must be done in
the way of admitting darkness Into the
blighting light of our gfcrious land.”
Secretary of Labor: “I have a plan, Mr.
President.”
Secretary of Treasury: “If so It must
be a plan that carries with it no added
great expenditures. I have the misfor
tune to report, Mr. President, that the
funds of the National Treasury are low
and our National credit has been very
heavily drawn upon; the price we had to
pay for too much light.”
Mr. President: “Speak, Mr. Secretary of
Labor, give us your plan.”
The Secretary of Labor thus spoke:
“Let there be darkness again.”
