Harding, the Man
(By A. A. EWING)

-~Ns~~>~<~sS~~~~~-~--~<~@<
The nomination of Warren G. Hard
inc became a part Of the nations his
tory more than three months ago.
That period has sufficed to give tn
senator's fellow Americans--if no
the internationslists who think J
provincial to be enthusiastic abou
their own country-a fairly accurat'
and quite satisfactory understandin!
Of the Harding personality. Millions
of men and women who knew little
or nothing OF Warren G. Harding be
fore the presidential campaign opened
have a definite estimate OF him today
The country has sized up" the next
president.
1t has found him more llkable; yes,
more lovable than 1t dared expect him
10 prove. He has turned millions OF
doubters into friends. He has made
millions, who were conscious of him
only as party leader, confident that
he Is to be q warm, kindly modest,
upright and very human hecd of the
national government. Out of the mist
OF vague Impressions has come fixed
belief in the ample endowment for
the presidency of the man destined
to carry the responsibilities of thai,
great trust.
The country sees that Harding IS
safe. 1t perceives that he is sure
footed and prudent There is nations
wide consciousness OF his modesty.
The people who are to elect him know
that he will never seek to magnify
his own ability or leadership by sur
rounding himself with weaklings
The country has no fear that he will
reject honest counsel from strong
men and heed only the batteries OF
courtiers.
And the Harding who has come so
clearly and convincingly into the
thought and life of the nation is
broad. just and reasonable He will
be above personal animosities. He
will not stoop to prosecutions born OF
jealousy or arrogance His adminis-
tration will not be dlsfigured by spite
full and ignoble tyranny.
1t is clear that Warren G Harding
will strive faithfully to be the i'm
partial helper. protector and servant
of all sections. 1t is plain that he un-
derstands all classes and feels the
needs and desires of the many ele-
ments that make this composite ma
