Harding's Accomplishment. Pity President Harding! Swept into office by a majority of 7,000.000 votes which gave him the Unrest plurality ever given any Presi dent, he la today but a figure head. At a time when his opportunities for flphting not only his own but the shipa of Rtates of all the world are possible he stays close to the White House and does nothing. The reaadn for this "masterful in activity" is analyzed by the New " orfc World in tliese words: "The teastn Mr. Harding is afraid to stir is that in spit* of hia vote ha haa no following. He was blown into office by storms that blew from all quarters of the sky.' Ha won not be rauae any one agreed with him but because he disagreed with nobody. He threw a sop to every discontent without committing himself to any. •Ha championed no cause. He was all things to all men and nothing in par ticular to any of them. - "Therefore in oflce he is the pris oner of hi* own majority. Therefore he cannot do what every ether Presi dent would do in Us place. He can not appeal over the heads of the tr reconrilablee to the country for sup port. Re cannot do what Rooeevelt did, what Wilson did, what even Taft did—he cannot go to the people, ex plain the problem and ask their sup port. "The Moment he attempted that, his majority, already reduced to the vanishing point, would disintegrate entirely, because It wee cess posed of TVis is Mr. Harding*! diftculty.
