ATCH PRESIDENT T0 PROVE METTLE Nomination Certain If He Wins Popular Esteem, . Is View Held. BY FREDERIC WILLIAM WILE. Watchful waiting—once the epitome of American policy toward Mexico— has become the program of certain republican aspirants for the presi dency of the United States. The ob- ject of their watchfulness is Calvin Coolidge. What they are waiting to watch is the degree to which he wins genuinely popular esteem. None of them admits at this hour that Mr. Coolidge has a “mortgage” on the 1924 nomination. Most of them go only so far as to say that he has a first-class claim upon it, but that he will have to demonstrate his unques- tionable right to the nomination he fore they can be expected to renounce their own ambitions. That, roughly, summarizes the con- clusions to which “favorite sons” and other receptive candidates have come, following the change in the repub. lican situation caused by Mr. Hard- mg's death. The tactics of Senator Tiram W. Johnson, an outstanding aspirant, are typieal of the to which_other candidate sorted. Mr. Johnson_ spent most. last week In New consulting with the castern friends who organ- ized his recent homecoming demon- ation. He called on President Coolidge immediately on his return from New York. He has since ex- plained that the proprieties of the sit- uation did not justify an earlier call. Time Not Ripe. Mr. Johnson emploved the interval in diagnozing the situation from his own standpoint, and, according to his friends, reached the conclusion that the time has not yet come for him to avow his 1 intentions. Some of them think Mr. Johnson will be 1 from the moment President Coolidge discloses definitely his atti- tude toward the world court. [t wa: Mr. Harding's whole-hearted advo- of the court that seemed to determined the California sen- ator to contest the republican nomi- n next vear, although he care- refrained from confessing such a purpose. Considerations that were present in the case President Harding are not expected to deter Senator Johnson in_the case of Pres- ident Coolidge. Many authorities were certain Johnson would, under no circumstances, have fought Hard- ing_in the primarie have no such confidence with reference to fight on Coolidge. If the new DPres- ident reveals himself a world court “100 per center.” Senator Johnson is extremely likely to take the war path. He is, in other words, watch- fully waiting for an issue. Fair Play for Coolidge. Notw nding _the advantage :ofi,‘iifié‘“"(‘,’.‘m tfe ina world court issue, he and other receptive candi- dates recognize that public opinion demands fair play for Calvin Coolidge and a chance to show his mettle. They are under few illusions on this point—that if Coolidge contrives to capture the popular imagination be- tween now and June, 1924, he will be almost invincible. 1f, for instance. The coal controversy should take a turn enabling him to score as spec- tacularly as he did on the occasion of the Boston police strike, ‘rival as- pirants for the presidency know their Fnell will have struck. 1If in some other direction the Coolldge admin- fatration “puts itself on the map”— effectively helps to solve the Euro- pean riddle, brings about a new con- ference to limit naval or aviation armament, secures’ the passage of remedial _legislatfon for the farmer SPECIAL NOTICES.

The controvérsy which arose in Vincent B. Costello Post of the Amer- ican Legion over the method of handling a drive to raise funds for a clubhouse will be amicably settled at ‘the next meeting of the post, it was learned today James C. Wilkes, chairman of a committee “seeking to bring about peace, said today that a settlement had practically been reached, but that announcement of the details would not be made until the post meets. The dissension came to a head ten days ago, when the post voted to ask for the resignation of Maj. Daniel Donovan, who had gone to the ex ecutive committee of the district de- partment of the legion to stop the drive because he objected to the amount that was to be set aside for the expenses of the campaign —— during the coming session of Congress or something equally striking—then, too, the worthy gentlemen who covet the presidential toga realizo- their dreams are ended. “If President Coolidge,"” sald the manager of an am- bitious 'middle west republican to this writer today, “impregnably es- tablishes himself 'in_public confidence no man can stand against him.

California has Johnson; Illinois has Lowden; Indiana h: Jim"” Watson; Pennsyl- vania_has Pinchot, and possibly Pep- ; Towa has Kenyon; Kansas has Capper and Allen;” New York has Wadsworth. and, in’ certain eventuali- | New Jerse: ties, perhaps Hughe: talking Willl has’ Edge; Ohio ' is Wisconsin’ has LaFollette. It open secret that in more than one of these camps, ‘especially those that are pitched on western ~or middle western soil, leaders are ready to capitallze to ‘the utmost the smolder- ing hostility to New England. “The domination ‘of New England" was a theme that aroused animosities on Doth sides of the Mississippi when the Sixty-Seventh Congress was being or- ganized. It will be recalled that there was a _considerable effort to put Philip Campbell of Kansas in the speakership of the House Instead of Gillette of Massachusetts. Western republicans did not take kindly to the idea of having both the leader- hip of the Senate and_the speaker- ship of the House in Massachusetts hands. Nor did they fancy the chair- manship of the Interstate Commerce Commission, as well as the chairman- ship of the ‘United States Tariff Com- mission (Marvin) “in possession of v state men. Mr. Coolidge's friends are not blind to the strength of the anti-New England and anti-Massa- chusetts slogan.

This writer spent the month of July in the middle west—in those states which nowadays are pivotal and de- cisive In a national election. Every- where thereabouts—in Kansas and Colorado, in Wyoming and Minnesota, in the two Dakotas, lowa and Ne- baska—New England, politically, is in bad odor. The people among the grass roots call the Fordney-McCum- ber tariff a nefarious piece of legis- lation conceived by and for New Eng- land. It would sesm the most in- opportune kind of a time for a New England statéesman to court the favor of the embittered west. Of course, if President Coolidge, New Englander that he is, leads the way out of agri- cultural distress, the west will for- get its prejudices. But a combina- tion of continued bad times and a New England presidential candidate— that is a pair of circumstances which nore than one republican would-be President may be counted upon to ex- ploit to the full.

Sir Thomas, wearing his inevitable vachting cap, looked considerably younger than his seventy-three years. Just before landing he produced a gray slouch hat. Then it could be seen that his hair was slightly thin- ner than in other years. “I will challenge in 1924 for the races and ‘expect to build a boat that will lift the cup this time, declared the Irish baronet. “But whether I win or lose, I can say that I've been racing for twenty on the British coast and I don't want sportsmen than Amer- h®ve made mistakes, it has always been in my favo “I have a cabinet of the finest cups in all England, yet I would surrender all of them if I could lift the cup which has been in this country for seventy years.

CHINESE PROBLEM DECLARED LASTING Missionary Says Nation Is Passing Through Period of Ado- lescence Now. H By the Associated Press. { CHAUTAUQUA, N.

Gulick, who has Just returned from the orfent after a. year there, and who spoke at the: con- iference on international relations from ithe Christian viewpoint. The confer- }snce is /held under the auspices of the 192 Commission of International Justice and 1Good Will of the Federal Council of { Churches. Dr. Gulick is secretary of the commission. “China is passing through its period of adolescence and will make unreason- able demands,” he said. “The some- What unreasonable west is likely to in- sist on programs and on quick results that will be essentially unreasonable and that will arouse resentment in 1 China. “We must seek to give China such a j full measure of justice and even of posi- tive helpfuiness that there shall be no danger of creating a militarized China, for a militarized and indignant China would be a menace to the entre world. “The Christian movement in China can never attain any very large suc- cess “until America’s international poli- cles are thoroughly Christianized.
