Only the expenso of the personal

President Harding
Has Appointments
Worth $100,000,000
WASMNOTOV. Mar. 5 Calvin
Coolidge is tho'fitst Massachusetts
man to hold the office of vice-president
since Henry Wilson served in tho sec
ond Grant administration nearly, half
a century ago. ills advent Into office
adds to the prominence of his state, in
national government affairs for it is
regarded as almost certain that Sena
tor Henry Cabot Lodge will be- again
chosen as republican leader in the
senate, and Rep. Frederick H. Gillett
as speaker of the bouse.- ' ' V- '''
Should Mr. Gillett succeed himself..
a Massachusetts man will preside dver
each branch of congress, a most un
usual coincidence. More unusual still
is the fact that both Mr. Coolidge and
Mr. Gillett come from the samo. con
gressional district, Northampton, tho
home of the vice-president being in the
same district as Springfield, the hofiie
of the speaker. ' Both men are grad
uates of Amherst college.
Vice-President Coolidge Is entering
upon his first service in the field of
national politics., but, for! 20 ,j.cars hf,
has boon aotlve in the politicul service
of his state, rising from membership
in the council of bis city 'to governor
of the commonwealth.
In Borne respects Mr. Coolidge is a
fignre strange in American. public life,,
being taciturn to a degree nnd appar
ently shunning tho spotlight nnd the
glamor which usually surrounds high
public officials. -To his most intimate
been a member of the federal power
commission. .
.loshua W. Alexander, , after, two
years service as secretary' of com
merce, will go to his old home at Gnlll
tan, Missouri, to resume the practice
of law and, as he says; to "do a' little
farming on the side."
William B. Wilson, another of the
original Wilson cabinet officers, has
accepted appointment to tho Interna
tional joint commission, which has to
do with disputes arising between tho
United States and Canada, with a sal
ary of $7500 a year.
friends he Is Wnownl ns "Silent Cal"
it is re'latod'in Illustration of this char
acteristic that a personal and political
friend who had conferred with him In
his executive offices at Boston without
receiving more than monosylnblcs for
answers finally quit the office in dis
gust, exclaiming as he came out: "By
George, I'd like to be that fellow's
stenographer."
Probably the most attractive part of
Mr. Coolidge is his home life. Ever
since bis marriage. 15 years ago, to
Miss Grace Goodhue, of Burlington,
't., a university of Vermont graduate
whom he met as a school teacher in
Northampton, ho has. lived a quiet,
modest life, most of the tlmo In the
shadow of Smith college in a house
which ho has rented for $32.60 a
month. (
'. "Save, no matter what your salary
may be," has always been his motto
and, as he has enjoyed beyond the
income earned in public office only
meagre returns from his law practice
because pf pressure of public duties,
be has' been obliged and content to live
simply. There are two boys In their
early 'teens, but all do their bit, even
to mowing the lawn.. -
"During Mr. Coolidge's official resi
dence at Boston he and Mrs. Coolidge
lived In apartments at a hotel, as thoy
will do hero in Washington, while tho
boys have been away at school. In
dress, too, Mr. Coolidge has been not
extravagant, although always immacu
lately attired and not given to use of
the threadbare, whatever tho popular
Impression to the contrary may be.
His coming to Washington means
I the presence of a man, who, his friends
say, personifies the best of American
'standards, not given, much to social
I life, perhaps, but a thorough student, a
hard worker nnd a clear-headed, solid
American.
President Harding's
One Lucky Charm Is
His Printer's Rule
WASHINGTON. Mar. 5. Up-
wards of 50,000 appointments to
public offices carrying salaries
aggregating inoro than $100,000.-
000 a year are to be made by
President Harding. Some of these
were made today, many others
will be announced during the next
few months while still others will
bo mndo as the terms of present
democratic office holders expire
These include nearly a dozen
4 ambassadors whose salaries are 4
$17,500 each, many ministers at
$10,000 each, assistant secretar-
les, federal judges, attorneys and
marshals, , customs collectors,
members of various government
boards and commissions and post-
masters by tho thousands.
In contrast to tho huge patron-
ago roll of Mr. Harding are tho
appointive perqulsitles of Vico-
President Coolidge, whoso Inline-
! dlate appointments comprise only
his sccrotary, clerk, page boy and
a prlvato telegraph operator.
Their salaries total $7,700 a year.
The vice-president himself rc-
colvos $12,000.

WASHINGTON, Mnr. 5 What
ever else he may be. Warren G.
Harding always classifies himself
as an editor, publisher and prin
ter, proud of,. his professional ac
complishments and training. His
luck-charm and most sacred pos
session Is a printer's rule, carried
In his pocket wherever he goes;
and his close friends say ho would
rather set a stick of type any day
than grant an audience to an am
bassador. . . '
For niore than. thirty yours Mr.
Harding's bread and butter has
been earned by the Marlon Star,
whoso responsibilities he assumed
under heavy mortgage and whoso
early years he nourished at the
expense of going hungry moro
than once himself. Slnco his
nomination for-the : presidency he
hns faced only ond public ordeal
that aroused emotions he could
not master. That . was the tem
porary severance of tho ties that
bind him to tho Star. On elec
tion night, when a group of his
employes came to congratulate
him, his voice broko and his big
frame was shaken by aobs when
ho undertook to scak of tho sep
aration that must be tho prico of
his triumph.
