No. 36-The Vice Presidents Job
BY WILL p. KENNEDY
6-The Vice Presidents Job.
BY WILL p. KENNEDY

The office of Vice President was an
afterthought of the constitutional
convention. No provision for such an
office was made until the closing days
of the convention, which had preVi-
ously decided that the President pro
tempore of the Senate should be the
next in line for succession to the
presidency. Originally the Senate and
not the House of Representative was
TO choose the President, in case the
electoral college failed to do so. These
two changes were made at the last
minute to safeguard against the, Sen
ate having too much power
Another defect in the old provision
of the Constitution was remedied in
the twelfth amendment by prescribing
that no person Ineligible to the presi-
dency should ever become Vice Presi-
dent.
The Vice President is merely a
moderator or presiding officer of the
Senate, without a vote except to break
a tie. His one great opportunity Is that
he is in line for the presidency in case
any one of four things happens to
the President-death, resignation, re-
moval from office or inability to dis
charge the duties of Office.
Six Succeed to Omce.
Out of 29 Vice Presidents we have
had to date only six have succeeded
to the office of Chief Executive
John Tyler, Millard Fillmore, Andrew
Johnson, Chester a. Arthur, Theodore
Roosevelt and Calvin Coolidge. Three
other Vice Presidents were elected
later to the office of President-J ohm
Adams, Thomas Jefferson and Martin
Van Buren,.
The idea of vacancy in the office
of President was abhorrent to the
Constitution makers, and they stu
diously avoided 1t. A vacancy in the
office of President may happen, by
death, about which there could hard
ly be any doubt; by removal, through
impeachment; by his own voluntary
resignation; or involuntarily, as in
the case of inability to discharge the
duties. The questions then arise
What is an inability ?"-'When does it
begin ?"-"Who shall decide its ex-
istence T'-"When does it end?" Such

tation acquired elsewhere. In fact,
he is presumably selected for the
vice presidency because he is con-
sidered to be qualified for the presi-
dency. Therefore, it is supposed that
he must have won his spurs" and
made his mark" previously.
The method of electing the Vice
President and definition of his duties
are contained in the Constitutional
principal Dronouncement being that
"the Vice President of the United
States shall be President of the SEN
ate, but shall have no vote, unless
they be equally divided" The term
of the Vice President is the same as
that of the President, four years, be-
ginning March 4. The Constitution
also provides that the Vice Pres
ident' may be impeached, and pre-
scribes that the official duties of the
President devolve upon him in GER
tain cases, and specifies that he shall
act as President if the House of Rep
resentatives fails to chose one,
whenever the right of choice de-

bills have shown that in consequence
there has been a notable saving in
expense, because the salary of the
Vice President is $4,000 a year and
he has a retinue of clerks and is
allowed an automobile.
Charles G. Dawes, the incoming
Vice President, is expected to make
the office of Vice President assume
new Importance and character. Theo-
dore Roosevelt was similarly expect
ed to attract greater attention and
exact increased Difference to the
office, but he lacked the opportunity
because he was sworn in March 4,
1901, and Mckinley was assassinated
in September, so that Roosevelt
served as Vice President only during
a brief special session of the Senate.
Little Opportunity.
While there have been Vice Pres
idetns who have left an impression
by reason of their personalities
such as John Adams and Hannibal
Hamlin-the fact remains that the
Vice President lacks opportunity to
increase his stature as a statesman
while in that office, and is known
for the character developed and repu-

TRIED TO STEAL TIRE.

Speaking to two colored men whom

The two men had just placed a

questions arose when Garfield and Nc
Kinley were shot and when the late
President Wilson was stricken. Will
liam Tyler Page, clerk of the House,
who has given this problem most
careful study, advised Congress at a
recent hearing that "the most rea-
sonable view seems to be that the
Vice President himself, upon whom
the duties of the office devolve, is the
person to decide when the inability
has arisen and when it ceases"
Coolidge Sat In at Meetings.
Calvin Coolidge, now President, was
the first Vice President to sit in at
cabinet conferences by invitation of
the President and in this way was
enabled to keep in closer touch with
