appear to have been a monumental

CONFERENCE ON
FUNERAL PL 8
CALLED t Today
Coolidge Takes UpD Duties
As Nation Executive
In-Meetings Today.


WASHINGTON, Aug. 4@By The
Associated Pressl.-President Coolidge
took up his duties as chief executive
today at n series OF conferences de
voted almost entirely to discussion of
plans for the funeral OF President
Harding.
The new head OF the nation. who
arrived quietly IN the capital late last
night, began quite as quietly as his
first work day in the temporary
white House" improvised for him
on~the third floor OF the historic VIII
lard hotel. He was up at s o'clock,
had q talk IN his suite with close per-
sonai friends and cd acquaintances.
read over a mass OF cablegrams ar
rying the good wishes of the rulers of
foreign lands, and then received Post
master New to discuss final details of
the funeral plans.
Meantime Mrs. Coolidge had slipped
away from the hotel for a short shop
ping tour, leaving behind a constant
ly growing collection OF flowers sent
her by admirers. They nearly filled
her hotel room and overflowed into
the corridor outside.
Ono of the suggestions made by the
president with those with whom he
discussed plans for the funeral. was
that Woodrow Wilson take a promi-
nent part in the rites to be performed
within the rotunda OF the capitol over
the body OF Mr.. Harding. 1t was said
an invitation would go forward to Mr..
Wilson at the S Street home where
he has lived in semiseclusion since
he retired from the White House. but
those in a position to know thought
It doubtful whether the former presi-
dents physical condition would per-
NIT his acceptance.
The first with whom Mr.. Coolidge
talked today were F. w. Storms, a
Boston merchant who arrived with
him from New York last night and
Benjamin F.. Felt. former Boston
newspaper man and close friend OF
both Mr.. Coolidge and Mr.. Stearns.
The president also conferred with
James b. Reynolds former treasurer
OF the Republican national committee
and of President Coolidge
campaign for the Republican presi-
Dental nomination 1920.
The funeral plans were discussed
at length with Postmaster General
New, Assistant Postmaster General
Bartlett. Col. C. o. Sheriff. White
House military aide. and Director
Hint of the Veterans Bureau
As soon as the funeral ceremonies
are ended the designations Of all mem
bers Of the Harding cabinet will be
handed in as n matter of form 1t is
not expected hat n of them will
be accepted.
Mr.. Coolidge let It be known that
the present personnel Of the Harding
administration would continue in Of
flee indefinitely. and that he could
see no reason for any present change
or for the interruption Of any negot-
atoms now being carried on with for
eign governments by Harding's ap-

be so vivid as to detail but r will
be more comprehensive.
Instead of telling of one city or
one district with its hundreds of
thousands fed, they will talk of the
extent of the operation in terms of
millions They will illustrate the
freight movement from the Northern
and Southern ports TO the heart of
the famine area by graphic charts
they have prepared They will tell
how many million cans of milk were
ordered, how many consumed and the
use that was made of the empty cans
and cases, of how many thousand kit
chens were opened and how the IA
tons were allocated months in ad-
vance, so that the children who came
to the kitchen could be certain a-meal
would be waiting them.
And down on lower Broadway, to-
ward the end of Manhattan Island,
in one of the skyscrapers there are
men who could tell still another story.
They would speak of vast grain pur-
chases, of the chartering If hundreds
of ships, of the mobilization of funds,
of crop estimates and international
negotiations, of a detailed accounting
system, of expert auditing. They
would tell of a business administers
ton of entrusted funds under the di-
rection of Edgar Richard. which en-
abled the chairman of the American
Relief Administration, Herbert Hoo
yer, TO report to the President of the
United States: "there has not been a
deduction of one penny for admins
trative purposes either from the
funds provided by Congress or from
public charity in the United Seates."
But by whichever group the story
is told, it is one of which America
may well be proud. In July, 1921.
Maxim Gorky and Patriarch Tikhon
appealed to the whole world to save
the starving population of the Volga
Valley. The very day that appeal
was published Herbert Hoover tele-
graphed to Gorky the conditions IN
its relief. Within a north Colonel
William N. Haskell was appointed d.
