ASK COOLIDGE AID INFALL PRIMARIES Senators, Moved by Defeat of McKinley on Court, Fear Outcome. BY J. RUSSELL YOUNG. Defeat of William Mc Kinley for the Republican nomination to succeed himself as Senator from Illinois is going to mean more to President Coolidge than the mere loss of gervices of a regular and loyal sup- porter of the administration in the upper house of Congr In pofitical circles is expressed that the President assume some responsibility for defeat last week in the Tliinois s because of Senator McKinley's Bupport of the President’s World Court policy Aside from this, it is contended, the President feel more than ordinarily hensive about the poli of several other Republican Senators who supported the World Court and who must now go before the people of their respective States to be re- turned to the Senate. Although some political intimates of the President te Senator Mc Kinley deteat to local troubles and to a fight among lIllinois Republicans for control of the State machine, and | not to his support of the World Court protocol, there are those in the Pres dent’s confidence who think dif- ferently. Among these e some O those Republican senator run the gauntlet of a primary Summer and an election next ber, and it is known that t tors are considerably wor the outcome in the Illinois primar Feel Coolidge's Power. These Senators, naturally, are hoping that the ident will do something to them materially in their forthcoming battles. They argue that the President is more popular than ever before with the public, and because of this and other powerful influences at his command he could easily be helpful to them. It goes without saying that more than one of them feels shaky and gloomy e the adverse response the Re- pu voters of Illinois made to Senator McKinley's appeal for another term. It 1s known that the President has received a hint from some of his offi- clal confidants of this feeling of un- easine among these Republican Senat: and of their hope that he will give them some form of support It is understood, however, that the President made no prom On s represented being inclined to keep his han On more than one occasion the ated that it would be high- r and unethical for him , and as for s part in very nder before him in the forma of the political blunder made in 1918 by President Wilson when he appealed to the electorate in the in- terests of the Democratic candidates for the Senate and House. Call Him Responsibla. However, this reported stand on the part of President Coolidge is by no means to the liking of the group of World Court Republican who are now facing difficul the present they are saying little, at least not within earshot of the Ex- ecutive, but there is an impression being gained that they intend to make themselves plain later on.

The| contention is that the President’s in- sistence caused more than one of his party to rally about his World Court banner, despite warnings and threats from the folks back home that the World Court was not popular, and that their vote for it would surely injure their chances for reelection. Furthermore these Senators will make their appeal not only from a sentimental viewpoint, but from a strietly political one.

Republicans in Washington are also wondering if the President will_do anything to assist Cummins. Brookhart is ex- pected to include the World Court among his major issues and the feel- ing here is that Senator Commins 1s going to need all the help he can get if he is to survive the Brooknart at- tack and maintain his seat.
