Harding as president of the United States has proved himself a most efficient executive for he stepped into the position when tb.in?n were in a chaotic state and when it required a man of his temper-- ment to direct the ship of state so it would not go on the rocks. His conservatism, his positiveness and his gen-- eral character made him a fit man to take the position. . _As a friend Mr. Harding was the sort who never forgot.> As a political leader he was of the sort who knew how to manage. As a captain of this great ship of state he was respected: and revered* by:not only the populace of other countries but also by their rulers who looked to America whenever a crisis arose to determine what was in thk minds of/our great official. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ /: ~--The utonmhmg situation in this country today is that 'despite the sudden death of our president there is no panic; there is no great chaos.
