Harlow, commander of the state department of the American Legion, showing President Coolidge’s stand on the veterans’ preference when he was governor of Massachu- setts and before the establishment of the Legion in that state: “To the Editor of the Transcript: Calvin Coolidge urged the passage of the veterans’ prefer- ence in Massachusetts before the American Legion was in op- eration here. His own bill, House No. 1404, dated February 27, 1919, outlines substantially the law as it now stands on the statute books. The only appreciable change was the addition of a special preference for disabled veterans which the Amer- ican Legion bill of 1922 ated. His exact words in support of his bill then may be of in- terest now he RB the Boston Executive Department, Boston, Feb. 27, 1919 To the Honorable Senate and House of Representatives: It has been a long established policy of this Commonwealth to give preference in the civil service to those who have served our country in time of war. Everybody is desirous of recog- nizing this principle, but there is considerable difficulty in drawing a bill which will meet the requirements of safeguard- ing the public service while giving a preference to veterans. I have had prepared a bill which it is hoped will meet these requirements, which is herewith submitted. It is desirable that proper action should be embodied in one piece of legislation to meet the requirements of the present and the future and take care of the veterans of all our wars. I earnestly recommend that legislation in accordance with this bill be passed, in order to give such preference as is re- quired to veterans who may hereafter seek to enter the public service in this Commonwealth. CALVIN COOLIDGE. President Coolidge’s stand on the veterans’ preference should be better known hereabouts. I should appreciate your giving publicity to this statement. Leo M. Harlow, Commander, State Department, American Legian, Boston, 13. The Vice-Presidency General Dawes has gone on record with a new answer to the question: “What shall we do with our vice presidents?” He is a pretty good fundamentalist on the Constitution, and he falls back on the notion that the vice president can get along well enough if he merely discharges his constitutional fune- tions. There is something to be said on both sides of the debate. The vice president is a rather lonely and unoccupied official. Mr. Harding thought it would be a good {dea to have his tential successor pick up some personal knowledge of the iF and outs of administration, and inyited Mr. Coolidge to sit as a guest in the cabinet. Mr. Coolidge angepted. He was a spec- tator without responsibility.. But whet the oil investigations came along last winter partisan rancor sought to distort what ever knowledge he might have acquired of cabinet discussion and decisions into actual political accountability. He was ma- liciously accused of not havifig either exercised or not exer cised an imaginery responsibility, General Dawes does not want to sit on the cabinet side lines. The role of observer does not appeal to him. He would feel freer to express his views, if the occasion ever called for it, a8 a non-member of the cabinet group. He is the best judge in such matters and his conclusion {s not open to criticism. The country ild, however, like to see the vice president more serviceat occupied than he is now. He is a listener, not a doer; a political hermit rather than an active states- man. His office is one in which meditattveness is an out standing virtue. And most minds attuned to politics rust ont in meditation Mr. Root’s Message Elihu Root has been all his life a clear-headed lawyer, with an analytical pins and a firm grip on realities. He is not a day dreamer or a political sentimentalist. It is immensely helpful to an understanding of the America of today that he can say out of his ripe experience: “I retire from active life with a deep faith that the American people are growing every, year to greater competency to give renewed life to the ideas of the fathers of the American Republic.” That is the fact which underlies American development in the last century and « half. With painful effort our people achieved first nationality and then ordered democrq . The process has been continuous, though often hidden, Despite the efforts of some of our less balanced politicians to introduce Marxian class war ic day more resolute]; conceptions. Our people have worked out their own problem. They stamped out slavory and sectionalism. Now they are enlarg- ing the bounds of domocratic Justice and opportunity, And what they have in thelr hearts will be accomplished, as Mr. Root shrewdly says, “Scnate or no Senate, Congress or no Con- gress, legislatures or no legislatures, pacifists or no pacifists, Bolsheyiki or no Bolsheviki.” Few public men of our duy have served the state with great- er zeal and distinction than has Mr. Root. He knows tho America which is in tho making. At eighty, with no false op- timism, he rightly bids Americans of good will to take heart and to remember that thelr task {s no harder (no doubt it {s considerably easicr) than that of the founders and of the gen- is \hich nurtured and eatghlished the Republic. and other alien fantasies, we are to- ached than ever to original American at asper Datly Crihune ry evening and The Sunday Morning Publication offices: Tribune to the use for publication of e local news published herein. 8 Steger Bidg., Chicago, Ill, 286 Fifth ass., Suite 404 Sharon Bldg., isco, Cal.
