Slemp's Appointment Is
a Cause For Conjecture

job Of secretary can interest him
only as a stepping stone, here's my
guess:
Cabinet Timber?
IF Slemp makes a success of the
work he really is selected to per-
form. thereby assisting or insuring
the nomination and election of
Coolidge mex year, you may as well
put him down right now for a place
In the ext cabinet.
Postmaster general, probably.
Perhaps secretary of treasury or
maybe of commerce. He has qualih-
cations for any of those three. Any
way, watch Slemp! He sees some
thing more than being secretary in
this new job
What sort of man Is this south
erner, then, who becomes secretary
to a Yankee president and already
is talked among the wiseacres as
one of the big forces In the coming
political maneuvers?
Campbell Bascom Slemp was born
at Turkey Cove, Lee county, yir-
ginia, on September 4, 1870. His
father was Colonel Campbell Slemp,
former officer I'M the Confederate
army and a typical southern gentle
man of the old school. His grand
father was one of the famous Viz
ginia Campbells.
Resourceful. both financially and
politically, Slemp multiplied his
family fortune between times and
held his seat in congress until he
tired of 1t. He told a friend last
year that he had cleaned up 100000
the previous year alone in his coal
land deals. He is reckoned safely
within the millionaire class.
Hates Routine
He has a mathematical and analy-
teal mind which has developed in
him unusual executive ability for a
nan long in congress. He is a hard
worker and expects his associates
to work equally hard. Some who
have worked with him term him a
driver" He will work night and
day to put through some proposition
and then take time off to rest up.
When he tackles a job he has a
definite objective in mind and is in
clined to be intolerant of obstacles

BY HARRY B. HUNT
(NEA Service Writer)

WASHINGTON-A slender, sal
low-skinned, long-faced man of fifty
three, gray hairs at his temples,
pouches of loose skin under his eyes,
celebrated his birthday anniversary
September 4 by stepping into a job
that many believe may shape the
political destiny of the United States
for the next -four years-that of Sec
rotary to the President.
Secretary to the President" is the
title Campbell Bascom Slemp will
wear. officially. But people who
know Slemp intimately smile at the
idea of his being any kind of a sec
rotary.
A millionaire, a keen business
man, an astute politician. a giver not
a taker of orders, the idea of Slemp
playing a secretarial role even to a
president somehow just doesn't
seem to fit. Therefore, his appoint
ment must mean more than appears
on the surface, they argue. But
what?
What?
A political manager? That sounds
more like it! Who better than he,
who as a Republican served fourteen
years in congress from a Democratic
southern state, who could round up
southern delegates behind the Cool
idge candidacy in 1924?
A laison officer between the White
House and congress? His long SER
vice on the hill. his mountaineering
with members and his knowledge of
how the legislative wheels go round
would make him most helpful on
that job.
But, after all, what do either of
these jobs mean in terms of Slemp?
All who know him agree he's not
taking a secretarial job just to be
secretary. What has he got his eye
on?
WELL" suggests an old-timer here,
who has known Slemp intimately for
many years, maybe it's just Repub-
lican success next year. But even
that would cover only part of it.
The real explanation must be found
in some answer that would touch
Slemp himself, personally. That sug-
gests a cabinet job. Knowing Bas-
com as 1 do, and knowing that the

preparatory to settling down for the
EcnuUi term. There are a number
of new school teachers as the staff

continents made through the

Many alterations have been made

tive by landscape work.

and impatient OF delays that may In
~tervene. He hates details himself,
shouldering them off onto others.
He Is wholly unmethodical and hates
routine.
He is a fast thinker, and either
when writing himself or debating
he chafes at the inability of the ma
terial record to keep up with his
thoughts. He can't bear being cir
cumscribed; he must be free, foot
loose, and can tolerate no situation
IN which he must occupy a position
of subordinate.
Two years older than the Presi-
dent and far better grounded in the
school of practical politics, Slemp
ome to his job largely through
the recommendation of Speaker Gil
lette and Secretary Weeks.
Slemp had an active art in the
last speakership fight, in which Gill
lette was elevated to presiding officer
of the House.
He was a Gillette lieutenant then.
He turned the trick.
He is a Coolidge lieutenant now,
Can he do the same this time?
That's the question.
Slemp plays a fair game Of golf,
but he's not a golf bug. He plays a
better game of poker. but can play
it or let it alone. He is popular with
women, but is o easily impression
able.
Contrary to popular opinion he is
not a bachelor. Who's Who shows
him as unmarried" However,
shortly after coming to congress he
brought to Washington a Louisiana
belle as his bride. She remained
here only a few weeks, however, and
a divorce on grounds of "incompati-
bility" shortly followed.
Political manage? A cabinet job?
Well. stick a pin in your calendar
at March 4, 1925. By that date you
will know.

Curious COINAGE.

1t is said that an Englishman who
contemplated visit to the United
States and q trip from New York to
San Francisco asked how many times
the coinage changed during the jour
ney. Perhaps some justification for
his ignorance exists in the number OF
different coinages in the British EN-
pire. The royal mint at London not
long ago struck nearly 100000 coins
of aluminium for circulation in Uganda
and the Nigerian protectorates. Each
coin is the value either of l cent or
2 mills and is perforated like Chi
nese coins, so that the natives can
string it. The lightness of aluminium
and the fact that it is the best non
germ-bearing metal are said to be the
reasons for its selection. Lightly
come and lightly go" will be especial
ly true of this money.
