HARDING HOME FIT
FOR NATIONS TASKS
Refreshed in Mind, He at Once
Plans an Early Meeting
of Minds

MARION, Ohio. Dec. s. After a
months vacation trip President-elect
Harding returned to Marion to-day to
lay the foundations of his Administra-
ton and its policies in consultation with
many of the nations leading states
men,
The meeting OF minds he promised
during the campaign will begin early
next week after he has disposed or ac-
cumulated correspondence and has put
into. more concrete form the questions
he wants to ask those who come here
to confer with him. The League OF Ma
tons will be foremost In his discus
sions. but several other problems VIII
be kept in mind as he gathers advice
and prepares himself for executive re-
sponsibility.
Throughout the campaign and since
Mr.. Harding has declared many times
that there are urgent questions to be
decided in the nations domestic AFFAIRS.
and to these he will give attention In
some Of his conferences here. For one
thing he has advocated reorganization
OF several Government departments to
insure greater business efficiency. and
| he Is expected before March to discuss
that subject with some of the country's
most successful business executives
Meantime too he must choose his Cabi-
net and must frame the taxation pro-
gramme he will recommend to the extra
session of Congress to be followed soon
after his Inauguration. Upon most OF
these subjects he made some progress
| during his two day visit in Washington.
but the real work of his Administration
building is yet to be done.
i His mind refreshed by his long play
spell, the President-elect evidenced to-
day keen desire to get vigoro' sly into
the swing of the task before him. Dur
| ing his absence in the South he has dc.
voted his time almost without interrupt
ton to rest and recreation, putting into
the background entirely the trying re-
| spons!bilities Of the Presidency. He told
his friends that this vaca ton probably
would be his last real respite before he
retires from the White House, and he
| tried to make the most of 1t.
He considers that the change OF men
| tai atmosphere and the excitement Of
travel have benefited him immensely.
but he showed to-day that he realized
that 1t was over by attacking at once
the stack of letters that he found await
| ing his attention. To clear his desk will
require hard work during the remand err
OF the week. for he has given virtually
| no attention to correspondence since the
| election.
| Senator Harding had not decided to-
night whether he would resign from the
| Senate sooner than he had planned
