Washington, ID. c.. Sept. 15.-Presi-
dent Coolidge is an active candidate
for the denomination to ,ucceed him
self. While reasons Of strategy or of
ficial delicacy may make an informal
announcement unwise for a few
months to come, leading Republicans
in all parts of the country are no
longer in doubt about it. In fact,
the President himself has discussed
the political situation with so many
callers that they have not had to be
told, for the Republican party has a
natural interest in the man who is
to be its standard bearer in the next
campaign.
Mr.. Coolidge has been consulted on
some questions as the party leader,
as, for instance, whether he has any
preference concerning the location of
the convention itself. He has been
told of the warning factions in GER
tain states and has been advised that
he could help bring harmony by the
application of a little influence in
the direction Of the White House.
But these very situations are relat-

TOY INDUSTRY IS
 GROWING IN U.S. A.
Provides Use for By-ProductS of
 Saw Mills

Syracuse. N. r.. Dec. 15.. The wooden toy industry is becoming in America, according to the New York state college of forestry, Syracuse uni versity. The world war game it a big lift because the war temporarily formerly the chief source of supply for the American market.
 The tariff now in force. however, sealed the fate of German competi- ton in wooden toys in this country and since that time several large cen ters of toy manufacture have sprung up, WiDchendon, Mass, being the largest in the east. The only wooden toy of any prominence that escaped the tariff embargo is the artificial Christmas tree which has been re- classified and transferred from the wood product class to the feather schedule as large portion of arti- ficial Christmas trees are made of feathers.
 Some German toys are on the mar ket at high prices. Many of these are made of metal, such as battle  ships, locomotives, trains. railroads, autom obiles, fire engines, mills and pianos. although a large portion of the pianos arc made of wood.
 American manufacturers. the state ment says. excell in construction of large toys, such as sleds, skis, carts. snowshoes, toboggans, etc. The kind of wood often depends on the by products of the lumber manufactur- CTS near which the toy factories are usually located. Because Of these reasons one manufacturer uses pine. another chestnut and another various hardwoods.
 Toy factories are held 10 be an cx- ccllent outlet for the by-products Of many working mills and go a long way toward making the operation of the lumber and coarse products mills profitable. Owing to the growing scarcity of wood and the increase Of the cost of labor, wooden toys have increased in price in the last ten years about one hundred per cent. Reforestation and scientific forest management will tend to reduce the cost of these Christmas gifts.
