NEW YORK, Dec. IL. - There
was a comforting book for neurotics
recently-a volume by a physician
of standing, hailing neuroticism as
something dandy for which the
victim should dance in the streets.
He believes a neurosis has a refin-
ing process that lifts one out OF
the m-drums.
He would have us believe that
reurotics flower the world with
genius. AS one of the twittery guild
I'd like to believe his thesis. But
frankly think it's largely poppy
cock. There's nothing neurotic
about Lindbergh or Marconi. Nor
was Abe Lincoln so bedeviled.
1t is absurd to say neurotics have
not achieved, for many have, despite
hypochrandiacal handicap. But the
boys and girls who salvage the most
Joy out of living and largely guide
the destinies of important enter
prises are without nerves. They arc
Butterworth's Rotarians with their
feet ON the ground"
Claustrophobia, agoraphobia, and
other jittery jets are largely the
result of self -coddling. Our sturdy
ancestors did not have them be-
cause they were too busy swinging
axes to build cabin in the clear
And plucking cockle-burrs out of

DEATH TAKES
SEN. JOHNSON
Is Third Major Death in
Minnesota Ranks in
Past Year

LITCHFIELD, Mimi, Sept. ID.
(UP).-Magnus Johnson, Ga, for
mer United States senator, who
carried his grassroots philosophy
to the halls of congress, died yes
terday of pneumonia.
The veteran member of the
Farmer-Labor party was stricken
i'll Aug. %, a few hours before
the death of his friend and fellow
Farmer-LabOrite, Gov. Floyd B.
Olson.
For a time his condition inn
proved, but he suffered relapse
Thursday night.
The burly, gOod-natured john
son preferred dirt-splotched over
alls to dignified senatorial garb
and once startled fellow senators
by boasting in congress that ne
was "the best gal-darned COW
mixer in Minnesota.
Johnson was the third national
w prominent Minnesota politician
to die within less than a year.
Senator Thomas Schall was fatal
~ injured by an automobile in
Maryland in December. Olson sue
cumbed in August.
In Washington Johnson was
known for his idiosyncraSies but
his home state never ceased to re
spect his native shrewdness and
his appeal to the masses.
Johnson was born at Narmland,
Sweden, Sept. 16, 1872. He came
to the United States in 1891 and
was a lumberjack in Wisconsin for
short time before he moved to
Kimball. Mimi, his home, for the
remainder of his life.
His desire to correct economic
ills troubling fellow farmers thrust
Johnson into politics and he Sery-
ed in the state legislature from
1915 to 1921.
In 1923 he pushed his earthly
philosophy into national politics
by winning, with 10000 plurality,
a special election for the senate
seat left vacant by the death of
Knute Nelson. He was defeated
for reelection in the senate in
1924, but re-entered congress in
1882 as a representative. He was
defeated in 1884, but carried his
political fire into the 1886 primary
in an effort to split Gov. Olson's
ranks and win over Olson's guber-
material candidate.
