In other years the Office of vice president
tas been filed by men who received little at
tention during their incumbency, except in
crises such As the death Of the chief executive.
In which event the vice president was called
to fill vacancy. With Mr.. Marshall it has
been different. He has been on the job daily
at Washington and people knew who he was
and where no was to be found He has been
an important factor In the two Wilson admin

the country as a csmpaigner and as speaker

that he was called upon by the people to give
to his nation he is the ppssessor Of riches that
money could not have purchased. He will be
remembered as one of the most popular men
who has ever served the people of the United
