"The Republican party of Nevada
in state convention assembled en-
dorses the administrations of Presi-
dent Harding and Coolidge Coming
into power with the greatest re-
sponsibility ever assumed by an ad-
ministration in times of peace. Presi-
dent Harding assumed the stupendous
task of Transforming the tremendous
agencies of the nation from those of
war into avenues of peace. In a
minimum of time unparalleled in the
history of the world five million un-
employed men lately engaged in the
destructive agencies of a world war
were provided labor in the productive
avenues of commerce and industry
and the wheels of progress set turn
ing in every avenue of national up
building. President Harding gave
his life in the great work as patrio-
tically as the soldier on the field of
battle, and a grateful nation Will
ever revere his memory"
