The Summer White House is becom'

Tents and cabins are popping up

busily throughout the day, breaking
the stiffness of the forest.
Along Squaw Creek, around the

PREDICTS COOLIDGE
WILL Be DRAFT TED
Fess Sees denomination if
President Stands on Brief
Announcement.

Unless President Coolidge issues a
statement celebrating upon the brief
announcement he made at Rapid City
during the Summer that he did not
choose to be a candidate to succeed
himself before the next Republican
national convention convenes, he will
be renominated by his party accord
ing to the opinion expressed today by
Seator Simeon D. Fess of Ohio.
Senator Fess, who was a caller at
the White House today wished to
make 1t very plain in expressing his
opinion that he lid not discuss this
subject with the President. He stated
that from his observations the senti-
ment is so overwhelmingly in favor
of President Coolidge for another
term, regardless Of his expressed in
tentions not to be a candidate all
other possible candidates are COM
pletely overshadowed.
Senator Fess went so far as to pre-.
dict that. in the event the President
remains silent on the subject, that he
would be renominated on probably the
fourth ballot at the convention. He
added that there will be flock of ia
vorite sons voted for on the first or sec
ond ballots and that on the third bal.
lot most of these names will be dropped
and only the more serious candidates
will receive votes. He feels satisfied
that the convention will not wait long
thereafter before being Stampeded for
President Coolidge.
The Ohio Senator is the fourth prom
inent Republican caller at the White
House within the past few days to ex-
press the belief that President Coolidge
will be the next Republican candidate.
