General Wood among numerous In
fluential leaders. and knows that any
slight to the General would react 10

Wood Strong at q. d. y. Convention
In order to realize the strength OF
Wood IL need only be recalled that
at the republican national convention
of 1920 he went into. the convention
with more votes than any other can
didate. As the balloting progressed
lie gained rather than lost strength.
and 1t was only at the end, when It
became apparent that there was a
deadlock and Harding was picked as

the first day of the convention the 1
talloting was as follows: In
New Britain herald., 1923-10-31

On the tenth and final ballot, OF
which Harding was chosen, Genera
Wood still had large group of sup.
porters--far more than had stuck tc
any other candidate. The vote was:
Harding 6747-1O; Wood 157h; John.
son, 80 2-5; and Lowden -.
General Wood is not expected to
play an active part as a candidate in
the 1924 convention; but the history
Of the last convention proves the high
favor in which he is held by leaders
of the republican party. Secretary
Weeks, to name only one, is great
supporter Of the General, And there
are numerous others, some of whom
are by no means SO closely allied with
the Coolidge cause.
Removal Would Offend Friends
Should President Coolidge remove
General Wood from his present posi-
ton in the Philippines, or in any other
way fail to back up his administration,
1t would undoubtedly create hostile
feeling toward the president on the
part of a goodly number of General
Woods friends. And If some other
candidate, Lowden, for example, who
is again an active candidate for the
republican nomination, were to take
advantage of this breach and line up
the alienated Wood supporters on his
own behalf, there would be grave
danger that Coolidge would find such
a ombination against him in the
convention as would make his nomi-
nation extremely difficult.
II is entirely possible that II Presi-
dent Coolidge should cease to back up
General Woods rule in the Philip
mines that the general might throw
his hat into the ring for the republic
can presidential nomination next
year. That might mean calamity for
Coolidge.
May Find Other Berth
II is rumored that advances have |
been made to friends of General |
Wood to close confidants of the ad- |
ministration to discover whether some |
other post would not be acceptable to
the governor, with view to solving
the Philippine problem by removing
General Wood, without at the same
time displeasing his friends. Such a
settem emit, however. could hardly be
reached, as 1t would be likely to be
regarded as a virtual reputation OF
General Woods administration of the
islands. Not to mention the fact that
there are extremely few jobs now un-
occupied which would be generally re-
"a rded as more desirable than that
of governor of the Philippines.

advisors can be accused Of lack of
