and to feel that proper solution the
problems they will present should be ^
subject of more thought than what Is
to happen to him personally in *934.
Mr. Paugherty has made it phi:;. sii.-e
giving out his statement that It was
not Inspired by the President. I-ust
Tu* sday Secretary of War Weeks
made substantially the same prediction
as did Mr. Paugherty. In his
opinion Mr Harding will have no oppo- i ;
sitiou in the party convention except '
possibly that Senator 1-a K<?Uette. j

Mr. Sweet says he nil! take his time
in filling the vacancy. Mr. Wilson's
action is taken by many as :m indication
that he i* ready to resume the
