his mentality which first attracted to
him the attention Of political leaders.
The late Senator w. Murray Crane,
who was n resident of CoolidEe'S con-

first to note these qualities, and he
resolved TO utilize the first opportunity
to project Mr.. Coolidge into the ma

were not set-impromptu as IL were
were made to gatherings at points
along the journey. Many were made
from the rear platform OF the train
during stops. Some were made on
streets and on steps. On one occa-
sion the President addressed a small
group OF enthusiastic citizens while
he stood upon a rough box near a
street curb in Seward, Alaska.
Speeches Carefully Prepared.
It is known that Mr.. Harding spent
much time in the careful preparation
of his set speeches. Three of these
were written by him in his study al

fore starting on the trip. During the
last week in Washington the Presi-
dent spent little time in his office, but
devoted the entire time to these mes
sages and to other details of the long
trip.
For more than a month before the
date for leaving attaches about the
White House were busily engaged in
mapping out the trip and planning for
every detail. All of this had to be
