TRAVEL IN CAY TUDOR TIMES SHOWN IN DETAIL
WHEN MIGHTHOOD WAS IN FLOWER, COMING HERE

To live like a Prince used to be the
paraphrase for the most luxurious
existence possible, put this has
changed a lot lately. Even with the
tie ups and blow-outs which embar-
rass modern transportation. the
owner Of a humble fiivver would
hardly want to travel like n prince
in the Tudor period. King Henry
VIII lavish and luxurious monarch
though he was, never knew the lux
ury Of a limousine,-or even the com
parative comfort of n Ford. The
King and his lords journeyed on
horseback for the most part, but
the. also had carrlages.-so-calied.

But the details were extremely

were the glory of the age. The. seats
were furnished with embroidered

sides hung with silk curtains.

ever, an attempt by the friends OF
VIII II. Hays, who managed the 1926
campaign, to re!nstRte him in the
craftsmanship.
The exact strength of the Hays
boom is yet to be demonstrated but
it is receiving serious notice among
the coterie of Harding supporters
wo are laying the ground work for
his denomination. 1t is realized that
il Mr.. Harding is renominated. II will
be for him to say whether he desires
to again seek the serN ices of the man
who was at the helm when the party
rolled up It's record breaking majority
of 1920.
All of these subjects seem likely To
be threshed over very soon after Mr.,
Harding concludes the months vaca'
ton in Florida for which he will leave
Washington early next week. At
torney General Daugherty, in whom
the president recently has expressed
anew his compete confidence. will be
ono of the guests on the Florida
n~ouseboat trip. and after 1t is con
cluded It is possible that Mr.. Harding
and at least Il part of the party will
proceed to Ohio TO spend a few days
on home soil. There he will IA an
1pportunity to see republican state
caders and examine the republican
organization OF his homo state, which
last November elected a democratic
governor.
It is taken for granted that n solid
Ohio delegation would be h first
.equlu:tc to u convention lineup which
would insure u denomination.
Later in the summer. Mr.. Harding's
friends are predicting, the president
Will AXE n speech making trip that
VIII carry him to the Pacific coast
and will include about 20 addresses.
During this trip he will have the
opportunity for which he frequently
has expressed a desire recently to
get better acquainted with the peo-
pie whose chosen spokesman he Is.
It is not intended to give the tour
the color of a swing around h pc.
l.ticaI circle, but wnen he faces his
audiences he is expected to give an
accounting OF his acts in the past
and outline his policies for the future.
As a result of various contributing
causes. it Is the belief of political
observers that the campaign, so far
as the Republicans are concerned. at
east, will be in full swing almost a
year before the nominating conven'
tion. Not the least Of these causes Is
the fact that II states have direct
primary laws in which the contest
for delegates to the national conyen'
ton is fought and won or lost long
before the season heretofore set aside
Tor state conventions.
In all their calculations, the pri'
mary system has been well 10 the
fore in the minds of those who want
the denomination movement 10 de
velop smoothly. 1t is realized tina
should the first states to hold pri
maries fail TO endorse Mr.. Harding
dcclsively, the reaction over the re-
maInder of the country might prove
a very great handicap in the months
that followed.
According to information reaching
the presidents friends, some OF those
who may be expected to shy theii
hats into tho ring are distinctly Of
the favorite son class of candidate
but even in their case the Harding
adherents believe there should be q
well established policy and that their
candidate should either stay out o
rayorlte son states entirely, or els'
go in determined to make a credit
able showing.

WASHINGTON, Feb. %.
by The Associated Press.)
Convinced that half a
dozen aspirants already are
making cautious oveEtures to
test their strength as Republi-
can presidential possibilities for 1924
some Of the friends Of President
Harding hav begun work to assure
him n re nomination.
Thus far the movement on behalf
OF the president has not reached the
proportions OF n closely knit organiza'
ticn, but it has progressed to the
point where it promises to make itself
felt in many states before the coming
summer is well begun.
The attitude of Mr.. Harding him
self toward a second term remains
unannounced, and It Is considered i'm
probable that he will make any pub
lie statement OF his intentions, al
least in the near future. There is
quite general agreement among those
on the inner circle of Washington
politics. however, that n desire for
public endorsement OF his steward
ship Will impel him to stand for re,
election.
It is upon this presumption, at any
rate, that those who want to see him
remain in the White House for an
other four years, are proceeding. In.
cluded in the group OF friends VIII.
have been in conference are some OF
the men who led the successful pre-
convntion campaign Of 1920. anu
some who came over to the Harding
ranks from other camps after the
convention was over. As n result. the
ultimate lineup of the Harding forces
of 1924 Is expected to resemble only
in part tho organization that fought
and triumphed in the nomination
fight of three years ago.
Attorney General Daugherty. who
was the pre-convention manager for
MIR. Harding in 1920, is expected to
again take n hand in urging u renOm
i%nation. But for several reasons Mr.,
Daugherty is not expected by his
friends to be as active as in 1920. His
health recently failed him. requiring
him to remain in bed for several
weeks although he has virtually re
covered. he cannot take the burden
of travel and conference which would
fall upon an active campaign man
Rger. Besides his official duties are
expected to preclude him from being
long absent from Washington.
Several men who nave long beer
prominent in party affairs have beer

strenuous work OF organization

cred, but he has made no statement

In the background Of these consid
