. WOOD S FACTOR IN CODLIDGE'S FUTURE, Must Be Med Up il President Wants Renomination BY GEORGE H, MANNING (Washington Buresu of New Bri Herald) Washington, D, Q. Oet, 31,—While recent events seem to have demon- strated clearly that the administration | of General Leonard Wood as Govern- or General of the Philippines will never be satisfactory to the inhabi. fants of those islands, and has made him a lability on the administration and the RNepublican party, there is helieved to be no chance that Presi- dent Coolidge will relieve him of his office, Political expediency ues strongly against the . displacing of General | Wood, When, at the eritical point | of the Philippine controversy several days ago, the administration lssued a #tatement backing the governor gen- eral so strongly, it was predicted in same circles that this support would last only until it had become evident 1hat the restiessness and excitement in the islands was not to be taken as a repudiation of the United States rovernment, but was to be laid en- tirely to General Wood's personal nnpopularity, After that, it was said, the governor would be quietly side- tracked and a more satisfactory ad- ministrator put in his place, Tut, regardless of the cause of the | troubles or personal hostility of the natives to General Wood, President Coolldge, as an active candidate for renomination and re-clection to the presidency, ean not afford to do other- wise than continue to favor Generdl | Wood's administration with the lp-< proval of Washington. And Presl. dent Coolidge, a certain r*am“v!nlr" realizes the great political strength of | General Wood among numerous In- | fluential leaders, and knows that any slight to the General would react to | his own serious disadvantage. | Wond Strong at G. O, P. Convention | In ordar to realize the strength of | Wood, it need only be recalled that | at the republican national convention | of 1920 he went into the convention | with more votes than any other can- | didate. As the balloting progressed lie gained rather than lost strength, and it was only at the end, when it became apparent that there was a deadlock and Harding was picked as the man with whom to break it, that Wood’s supporters switched off. On the first day of the convention the Lalloting was as follows: 1st ballot 2nd 2871 280% 4th 31414 28214 259 148 14015 58% 61% On the tenth and final ballot,. on which Harding was chosen, General ‘Wood still had a large group of sup- porters—far more than had stuck to any other candidate. The vote was: Harding 6747-10; Wood 157%; John- son, 30 2-5; and Lowden 12. General Wood is not expected to play an active part as a candidate in the 1924 convention; but the history of the last convention proves the high favor in which he is held by leaders of the republican party. Secretary Weeks, to name only one, is a great rupporter of the General, And there are numerous others, some of whom ard 303 Johnson Harding .

Removal Would Offcnd Friends Should President Coolidge remove General Wood from his present posi- tion in the Philippines, or in any other way fail to back up his administration, it would undoubtedly create a hostile fecling toward the president on the part of a goodly number of General Wood’s friends. And it some other candidate, Lowden, for example, who ig again an active candidate for the republican nomination, were to take advantage of this breach and Iine up the alienated Wood supporters on his own behalf, there would be grave danger that Coolidge would find such a combination against him in the convention as would make his nomi- nation extremely difficult.
