HARDING IN POSITION OF PARTY BOSS President Is Expected to Continue Role. GET THINGS DONE Seems to Be Purpose of Man in White House. Special to Indiana Pally Times and Philadelphia Public Ledger. By FREDKRIC WILLIAM WILE. WASHINGTON', April 21.—republican party leaders In conference at Washington this week are a unit in declaring that President Harding's resumption of party leadership has had an electrifying effect throughout the country. They refer to hla successful captaincy of the fight in the House of Representatives against the pacifist-reductionist attack on naval appropriations. "The President's stand for a ‘treaty Navy' and on the bonus bill are the best things he's done in a long time,” was the way a Republican organization leader of national renown expressed himself. Apparently the expectation Is widespread that what Mr. Harding now has begun In the direction of party eom-wander-in-ehlef, he will not abandon. O. O. P. managers are convinced t’u* country, the Republican party and even •lie recalcitrant majority in Congress art •ady for the kind of ‘‘big stick” the present occupant of the White nous* knows how to wield. They are In no tear President Harding will try “strongarm” methods. They declare he doesn’t have to. But they are quite as positive that the time has come when Mr. Harding just give up his temperamental disinclination to coerce and do some genuine ;adlng. t-F.LLOWS IN STREET I EMANT* ACTION. The organization captains—the fellows who are In Main street somewhere every day. or whose business 1* Is to hear from Main street —Insist that ‘ the ituff Harding gave ’em” last week, on the occasion of the naval personnel victory, Is what is wanted, and wanted badly. It is confidently asserted, for example, that If the President will do for an adequate Army what he has just accomplished for an adequate Navy, he will command as solid support In Congress and outside as was vouchsafed him when the naval appropriation bill went to Its final passage. Mr Harding thinks a minimum strength for the Army Is 130,000 as against the 115,OOC which the Pacifist-reductionist clique espouses. The same element that fought the “treaty navy” now have massed forces against the Army which Secretary Weeks and Generals Pershing and Harbord recommend. They are not likely to find Mr. Harding friendly to their theory that the national defense act with Its provisions for citizen training threatens to turn America into an "armed camp.” Republican leaders, as the 1922 campaign approaches, are finding that President Harding unmistakably Is the party’s strongest asset. They are persuaded, they say, that It can only become an even more potent asset if he adheres to the policy of constructive party captaincy. The country Is in pretty sore-headed mood on a number of political issues, the leaders are finding. The “bonus” Is as unpopular with the business community as a financial panic. There is a bitter clamor for action on the tariff bill, regarding what the commercial world thinks there has been unnecessary dillying and dallying. Taxpayers, large and%small, are disapppolnted that there has been no larger measure of relief for them In any of the proposed revenue legislation. NATION DISPLEASED WITH POLITICAL ROW. Another thing that the President Is hearing from bis political lieutenants Is that the Nation Is seething with discontent over ••‘■ironic chaos In the Internal revenue division of the Treasury Department. It is difficult to make business men, firms and corporations believe that after thirteen months of the Harding Administration the Republican regime is not to blame for the continuing disorder in internal revenue affairs. The party managers are being called upon to explain the why and wherefore of It. That situation is at the bottom of the threatened ’’upheaval” la Commissioner Blair's bailiwick. As Republican strategists view the political battlefield, they see the Democratic host disorganized, as It has not been for many years. Wilson-Tumulty-Cor-Reed-McAdoo dissension with all the issues and side Issues therewith associated. are visualized as compensating for, if not entirely wiping out, the internecine kinks in the G. O P. armor here and there. It Is because the enemy is believed to be ‘‘shot to pieces” that Republican managers are anxious for rankclosing, agressive leadership in their own camp. They profess to be convinced that President Harding in the chaotic condi

tions prevailing in Congress and in the country has a peculiarly potent opportunity if he will grasp it. They know him to be thoroughly alive to party necessities and party opportunities. Their task concededly is to make a man, whose every fibre hackers for peace and conciliation. see that salvation Just now lies In the direction of plain speaking and assertiveness. “Blocs" have to be put in their places. Special Interests need to be told things. Timorous members of Congress have to be reminded that re-election Is not always most surely bought by cowardice. If Warren G. Harding listens to the counsels which are being recommenced to him along those lines, the weeks Immediately ahead of us in Washington are likely to see things done. There will be victors and vanquished, but G. O. P. managers are confident the casualty list will be smallest in the region of the White House. —Copyright, 1922, by Public Ledger Company.
