Of the Presidents | 3 closely as |
Republican whip in the House and |
Senate floor leader, he says: McKinley—He gave a

party administration, one expected | by the Democrats and therefore not | displeasing to them, and one ‘that | was especially satisfactory to his]
Republican adherents.
Theodore Roosevelt—All in all, he |
{was a most remarkable individual
‘and it is very doubtful whether we | ~ [shal] ever look again upon the like. | Taft—An affable gentleman, he |
was as nearly devoid of
executive |
ability as any one of our presidents | i
who could be named. Terms Wilson Idealist
' Wilson—An idealistic college pro-

‘and who sought to work them out in
a practical world. ! Harding—Altogether
too urbane, |
too generous-hearted and too fond |
| of having a good time for his own | good.
Coolidge—It is doubtful .whether | . another man could have been found | | who would have fitted into the pres- | | idency as well as Mr. Coolidge at

Hoover—Had the great panic not | swept him down he would have had |
