HAS TOUGH
TIME KEEPING COOL
President Finds Difficulty Living
Up to Slogan Keep Cool
With Coolidge
Bv HARRY B. HUNT

WASHINGTON. August IA
Are Bob La Toilette, the American
Federation of Labor and the wealth
erman in conspiracy to aullify the
Republican campaign cry Of Keep
Cool with Coolidge?"
Suspicion that some such dark
dealings are afoot has been arous-
ed by the coincidence that just
when Sam Gompers announced that
La Toilette was the only real
friend of labor in the presidential
field, and when Matthew Wall let
loose a broadside against Charley
Dawes open shop activities, the
hottest spell of weather that has hit
the capital since 1918 descended
upon the White House.
Not all the GOODNESS of Coolidge
could keep the temperature
around the executive offices below
the boiling point. Both mentally
and physically it was hot no.
warm, but hot!
AS offices go, the president
private office is one of the coolest
that could be constructed in this
climate.
A large circular bay. at the
south, is made up chiefly of win
dows which can be opened to admit
the breezes that sift up from the
Potomac, cross the spacious monu-
ment grounds and five acres or SO
of shaded White House lawn.
But high ceiling and open win
dows have not sufficed to keep
either the president or the execu-
tive office cool under the combined
heat of the August sun and the siz-
zling statements of Gompers and
Wall.
To date Coolidge hasn't stripped
to shirt sleeves, as President Har-
ding used to do when the mercury
scared, but he is showing signs OF

will fill the shortstop position to
satisfaction, and Dean is a fine
young pitcher. Besides, I look for

Joe Oeschger should be a winner on

McGrew is long and awkward.

McGrew has it in him to be one
