HARDING TO CONSULT
MEN OF ABILITY
(Continued from Page 1)
PHONES 1885-6-7
course to pick up tne party ai
Galveston, had been abandoned.
Ltider the present plan the de
parture will be made from New
Orleans, to which point the sen
ator and Mrs. Harding and their
uests will go from Point Isabel
by rail.
Conforenres Called.
That the plan for conferences
on an association of nations al
ready was taking form was re
vealed in this announcement from
Mr. Harding's office:
"Senator Harding let it be
known today that he is. sending
oat a number of requests for per-
onal and very informal confer
ences with men and women who
have been eminent in the discus
sion of our foreign relations
These conferences will take place
upon his return to Marion in De
cember and will be individual and
personal with the main purpose
of learning what policy may en
list united support.
Senator Harding means to
avoid any unseemly anticipation
but he feels it wholly becoming
to get an expression entirely free
from campaign bias, and to get It
at the earliest possible day
is the first step toward the meet
ing of minds of which Senator
Harding so frequently spoke dur
ing the campaign. He did not
make public any list because
will not be .complete before hi
vacation ends.
Cabinet Discussions to Rear.
"Senator Harding rurther .an
nounced that I no consideration
wquld be given to a cabinet during
his recreation period."
Officials close to Mr, Harding
recalled - that in his campaign
speeches he promised repeatedly
that the "meeting of minds
would begin as soon as possible
after his election and that he also
frequently declared that the pur
pose of his consultation would be,
not to suggest any plan of his
own, but to ascertain how diver
gent views might be so brought
into harmony as to put a united
nation behind him in his. negoti
ations with other powers. .
He also has' indicated in cam
paign speeches that irreconcilable
opponents of the league of Ver
sailles as well as its ardent sup
porters would be numbered among
those to whose advice he would
listen. To the senate he prom
ised to give a share of attention
proporitonate to Its power in per
fecting treaties.
Conference Simulations.
Although the president-elect has
never named publicly any of those
he will include In his consulta
tions, speculation of a wholly un
authoritative character has re
solved persistently about a num
ber of conspicuous figures who
might answer to the description
Mr. Harding has laid down.
So far as the senate Itself is
concerned, this .undercurrent of
gossip has carried frequently the
names of such Republican sena
tors as Lodge, of Massachusetts.
chairman of the foreign relations
committee; Knryx of Pennsylvania.
former secretary of state and a
reaty irreconcilable: Johnson of
California, another irreconcilable
leader, and Lenroot of Wisconsin,
a leader oJS the reserratlonlsts.
On the Democratic side there ha
been mentioned among others of
Senators Underwood of Alabama,
the tarty leader: Hitchcock of
Nebraska, who led the fight for
unreserved ratification: Simmons
of North Carolina and Robinson
of Arkansas.
Among those outside the sen
ate, frequent speculative mention
has been made of former Presi
dent Taft. a leader for interna
tional peace and a supporter of
the Versailles league; Herbert
Hoover, another league advocate;
Elihu Root, former secretary of
state and a participant in the re
cent international court negotia
tions; Charles E. Hughes, Repub
lican presidential nominee in
1916: Henry White. Republican
member of President Wilson's
peace commission; Myron T. Her
rick. former ambassador to
France; Henry P. Davidson, head
of the American Red Cross; For
men Senator Sutherland of Utah
and many other Republicans.
