asked his callers to give him the
benefit of their recollection of con-
vers;.t ms with Mr.. Harding and
intimate consultations extending over
the last two and n half years.
Mr.. Coolidge has revealed himself
as sympathetic listener. At no
time has he indicated that he dsap-
proved of what was done, but he is
scrupously trying to find out just
what were the circumstances that
led Mr.. Harding to make the decisions
of policy which he made. Cabinet
meetings probably did not disclose 80
per cent of the administration poll
cies. Day in and day out, Mr.. Hard
ing's engagement list was full and it
is no exaggeration to say that much
of the business of his administration
was done orally. There wasn't al
ways time to make a record of i'm
portant matters.
The President today is like a stu
dent at new school. He must get
acquainted with his fellow students
and at the same time dig into the
curriculum of studies. While Mr..
Harding did have the vice president
at the cabinet table. Mr.. Coolidge
found himself on taking office un-
familiar with much of the routine of
the government in which in the past
he had had only an advisory inter-
est. but now becomes his personal
and official responsibility.
Coolidge Is Careful.
Mr.. Coolidge has been careful not
to foreclose himself against changes
in the Harding policies. He has sim
ply let it be known that in general
he will carry them forward and that
the changes he will make are of a
character which Mr.. Harding himself
might have made if he had lived.
But that's the nub of the political
aspect of Mr.. Coolidge's assumption
of the presidency. While Mr.. Hard
San Antonio light. [volume] (San Antonio, Tex.) 1911-1993, 1923-08-17

ing was rapidly gaining in political
strength, he did have considerable
opposition. Mr.. Coolidge would like,
naturally, to inherit all the assets of
Mr.. Harding's administration with
none of the liabilities. What his
statement. therefore. means is that all
the Harding policies that he believes
are to the best interest of the peo-
pie and which will help TO insure a
continuance in power Of the Republi-
can party after 1924 will be faithfully
executed, but that the new execu-
tive reserves the right TO modify or
amend the Harding Manifestations
acts or pledges whenever it shall be
to the best interests of the country
to have them amended.
No formal or official announce
ment is needed from President Cool
idge to establish the fact that he is
DESTROYS of earning a second term.
He would be strange human if he
didn't. And there would be little
stimulus TO his daily work if he were
indifferent to the second term idea.
But Mr.. Coolidge feels already the
restraint Of the presidency which
keeps the man in the White House
from actively seeking a nomination
for himself. The new President.
however, is in n somewhat different
position from anyone who has oc-
cupied the office before. He took
the oath on the eve of Presidential
campaign. He has only short time
to, show the country what kind of
an executive he is. In four or five
months Presidential primary con-
tests will be here and if rival candi-
dates think Mr.. Coolidge is not maxi
ing satisfactory showing before the
country they will redouble their eff
forts to carry important states in the
primaries.
Mr.. Coolidge. therefore must work
fast. Some people are disposed TO
San Antonio light. [volume] (San Antonio, Tex.) 1911-1993, 1923-08-17

think he worked fast when he select
cd as private secretary, Bascom
Slemp, former representative from
Virginia, and an astute Republican
politician with a wide acquaintance
and influence in the South where
delegates are usually much sought
after by the managers of Presiden-
tial candidates. President Coolidge is
really not guilty of that charge. All
that he did was to ask Speaker Gil
lette and other friends who know
Congress well Just what type of a
man he ought to have for secretary.
They picked Slemp for variety of
reasons and it is of course probable
That they thought of the necessity of
lining up southern delegates for Mr..
Coolidge although he himself might
never have suspected the politics in
il.
What Mr.. Coolidge needed in the
White House was man who knew
politics and politicians. He wanted
a genial soul who would know how
TO make political folk feel at home
when they called at the White House.
Woodrow Wilson had that type of Sec
rotary in Joseph =. Tumulty who was
really political manager rs well as
secretary. Under President Harding.
Attorney General Daugherty played
the role of political manager. Presi-
dents always have somebody to deal
for them with the politicians and the
organization leaders. So long as
presidents must rely on organized eff
fort in primaries and elections, this
will be true. When Mr.. Coolidge has
familiarized himself with the Hard.
ing policies. he will no doubt express
his viewpoint on pending questions
explicitly. Some of his statements
will be reiteration of what has been
said before by his predecessor. Other
announcements will carry their own
explanation of why deviations are

night at the labor temple Much
routine business was transacted. Ray

ed at Peter Centner's, were initiated
and added to the membership roll
Several new applications were receiv-
ed.
President Ray Wunderlich reported
that he is receiving many complaints
from the card store merchants re-
garding stores that are open nights
and Sundays. 1t seems there are
quite a number of small stores in the
city, and they are increasing fast.
who have no regard for rules or reg
ulations, and know no Christmas, La
Dor Day, Yom Kippur, nor any other
day. They are open 365 days and
nights in the year with an extra day
and night every four years thrown in.
They do business on heather order.
When approached on the subject of
closing as the other merchants do,
they are inclined to get insulting and
as one of them told a representative
of the Clerks Union, Il don't let no
id man tell me when to close and
when to open" This fellow needs
attention, and from the action taken
Monday night he is going to get it.
The clerks executive board will meet
with the executive board of the Retail
Merchants Association and decide on
some effort for reaching these little
fellows. One thing is determined
upon, and that is that the clerks are
going to see that these stores are
closed on Sundays There is a state
law to this effect and it is going to
be brought into action in the local
situation.

these two popular players achieved
fame and fortune in the world of
cinema, Mr.. Lewis J. Selznick has been
searching for a story in which he
might employ their combined talents
At least ten thousand manuscripts
passed through his hands before he
finally picked Edward J. Montagne's

choice. Mr. Selznick's choice will
cause thousands of hearts to futter
