By the Associated Press. The full honors due a ruling sov- ereign will be accorded to a governor general of Canada for the-first time when Viscount and Viscountess Wil- lingdon visit in Washington December 6and 7. Since the reorganization of the “British Commonywealth,” making en- tities of imperial dominions, the Canadian governor general ranks officially with the president of a re- public, and official Washington is pre- paring to follow out the prescribed traditions surrounding the visit of one holding that rank. First Legation Visit. President Coolidge will cross the threshold of the Canadian legation for the first time during Viscount Willing- don’s visit, as it is not customary for the Chief Executive to enter foreign diplomatic premises as a caller upon ministers or ambassadors. Viscount Willingdon will be the host at the le- gation on Massachusetts avenue, as his rank and right entitle him, in- stead of being the guest of the Hon. Vincent Massey, the Canadian Min- ister, Tentative arrangements provide for a state dinner for President and Mrs. Coolidge at the legation, and it is probable that the White House may be the scene of a brilliant party in the governor general’s 10nor. Canadians here point out that the formalities will emphasize the new “nationhood” of Canada and its dip- lomatic independence as exemplified by the establishment of a Canadian legation here in February, 1927. Required by Tradition. The visit of the governor general, it is pointed out, has no political or state significance, being merely a formality required by tradition when personages of the rank of sovereigns visit other countries. The viscount and viscountess plan visits in New Canada. The governor general and Vis countess Willingdon will be greete upon their arrival by Secretary Kel- logg, staff chiefs of the Army, Navy and Marine Corps and other digni- taries. A war strength troop of Cav- alry and a company of Marines will add to the military atmosphere at Union Station. The visitors will be escorted to the Canadian legation. Later in the day where they will be received by the President and Mrs. Coolidge, who will return their call at the legation. MR Senator Holds Weight Record. Correspondence of The Star.

BERLIN.—Prussic acid has proved an effective exterminator of the brass bug, an exceptionally destructive beetle, which is able to bore through metal.

The houses invaded by the pest were gassed for two weeks, and at the end of that time thousands of the beetles were found dead.
