Hard to hold, apparently, iz the seat of the junior U. S. Senator from Ohio, once filled by Warren Gamaliel Harding. In three years Death & Defeat have cut down its last three occupants. Last week a fourth man stepped up to try his luck...
McLean v. The Record. Rich and social is Edward Beale McLean, publisher of the Washington Post, famed as owner of the Hope diamond, and as a friend of the late President Warren Gamaliel Harding (TIME, March 10, 1924). Last week he sued the Philadelphia Record, a Democratic daily, for one million dollars damages on account of libel which Plaintiff McLean described in his declaration as "false, wicked, malicious, scandalous and defamatory."

He had another duty: to sit in the executive office lobby and amid much...
...distinguished, curly-haired Myron Timothy Herrick started life on a farm in Huntington, Ohio. His first real job was peddling lightning rods, parlor organs and dinner bells to farmer-neighbors. In 1903 he was elected Governor of the state; his Lieutenant-Governor was convivial Warren Gamaliel Harding. Ap- pointed Ambassador to France by President Taft, some trick of fate made the tall, handsome Ohioan look more Parisian than most boulevard flaneurs. The French took him to their hearts. Never a retiring violet, his theatrical sense of diplomacy made him a hero on three occasions...
