HARRISON TW|TS
c. O.P. ON ANXIETY
Declares Coolidge Is Doomed
to Back Seat if He Seeks
Place in Senate.
BY G. GOULD LINCOLN.

Reports that Republican leaders were
seeking to prevail upon former Presi-
dent Coolidge to become a candidate
for the Senate in Massachusetts next
year caused Senator Pat Harrison of
Mississippi to declare during the Senate
debate today that II the former Presi-
dent came to the Senate he might as
we'll lay aside any ideas he may have
of entering again the White House.
Senator Harrison twitted the Republic
cans close to President Hoover upon
their alleged anxiety to remove Dwight
Morrow, Ambassador to Mexico. and
Mr.. Coolidge from the list Of presi-
dental possibilities in 1882 by having
them sent to the Senate.
Refers to Morrow.
"Of course, we read and hear much
of the anxiety in the mind of the
President touching upon the opposition
within his own party to denomination
and reelection two years from now"
said Senator Harrison. I'VE hear 1t
said that Dwight Morrow was sent to
Mexico in order to destroy his candi-
dacy, and then we see certain leaders
heads together and plan to send him
here to bury his hopes and aspirations
in this august body. The other who
looms up to worry the President is
Calvin Coolidge.
I'VE see the eminent Senator from
Massachusetts,, Senator Gillett, who
has rendered such distinguished serv-
ice in this body and in the House, step
aside and out to open up the way for
the ex-President to come to the Senate,
and those close to Mr.. Hoover are be-
hind the move to get the Ex-Governor
Of Massachusetts,, Fuller, out Of the way
so that Coolidge can come down to the
Senate and bury his hopes and aspira-
tons here.
Offers His Suggestion.
IT want to make a suggestion to
the ex-President, because 1 like Cool
idge. He better not take that nominal
ton up there for the Senate. He won't
shine here with that same degree of
brilliancy as he did in the White House
We remember him here, and when his
tory is written, little will be said about
his fine qualifications as the presiding
Ofncer of this body. He will have to
take q back seat II he comes here. He
will after play into HooverS hand, and
the press will talk of his taking little
part in the debate, and the way will be
cleared for Hoover'S denomination with
out opposition.
II have too much respect for Coolidge
to believe he will agree to this subtle
plan tnaugurated by the very adroit
politicians in the Republican party close
to Hoover. to think that he is going to
accept place in the Senate"
Senator Walsh of Massachusetts, a
Democrat, Immediately begged Senator
Harrison to cease worrying about the
Massachusetts, senatorShip.
The democracy of Massachusetts"
said %enator Walsh, will take care of
any e. igency which may arise. assure
him tt will have Democratic coll
league here in two years"

bezzlement and conspiracy to embezzle
funds of divers persons and individuals.
Books of the Smith company later, in
answer to these subpoenas, were sent
to the Department of Justice in prepa-
ration for submission of evidence" to

Shortly thereafter the Smith company

been voiced in Congress over methods
of the Smith company in connection
with q bond issue, the concern was
dropped from membership In the Wash
ington Real Estate Board.

Former Secretary OfNaUy
May Succeed Justice Holmes
Curtis D. Wilbur Men
toned as Likely Sue
cessor for the Supreme
Court Office

There is a prophecy,
which is current. at about
this time each year concern
ing the retirement of Justice
Oliver Wendell Holmes from
the Supreme Court. Now it
is whispered around that
Curtis d. Wilbur, Secretary
of the Navy in the Coolidge
administration, will be the
likely successor for the Of
flee. He is at present on the
Federal bench in California.
Benefits
If this prophecy is fulfilled
and Mr.. Wilbur is appointed
and there's every indication that
he would be-then society will
be doubly benefited-for that
means the return of Mrs. Will
bur-who was considered one Of
the most charming hostesses in
the Coolidge Cabinet.
For Tea
She has been missed tremen-
dously by her host Of friends here.
who would gather informally
at her apartment at Stoneleigh
Court in the afternoon for a cup
of tea--and a little chat, when Mrs.
Wilbur could take a little time, off
from her official duties.
The report Of the retirement
of Justice Holmes has recurred
annually for the past dozen years,
with faithful regularity. Sooner
or later it will prove true-and
this viii very likely be the time.
In the meanwhile, Justice Holmes,
now in his eighty.eightir year,
carries on with apparently un-
diminished vigor-both physical
and mental. the marvel Of the
age.
During the Coolidge administra-.
ton. Chief Justice Rugg, of the
Massachusetts, Suprem o. Court
was usually mentioned" as the
probable successor to Justice
Holmes.
