Harding May Speak in Omaha While on Tour President to Determine by Re action of People to Speeches - Whether He Will Run Again. By GEORGE F. Al'THlER H nxhinglon Correspondent Tha Omaha fie*.' Washington, March 5.—(Special.)— President Harding’s contemplated trip round the circle, this summer, it became known yesterday, will include delivery of at least 20 set speeches, and appearances in every section of the country. Omaha, it is expected, will he included in the Itinerary. 1’pon the reaction to the sp^behes will depend the president’s final de cision as to whether he will be a can didate to succeed himself. At the present time he is determined to be a candidate for a second term, but it is an open secret with ‘his friends that this decision is subject to revis ion in the light of results following •he "appeal to the country.’’ The president's itinerary on this journey has not been derided npon and will depend largely on whether he will go to Alaska this summer. This trip. In turn, is dependent upon tho condition of Mrs. Hardings health and upon the situation growing out of disturbed conditions in Europe. Whether Alaska is visited or not, the president will endeavor to reach the ^^•mtral points in every part of the country. New England and the south are to be covered in this manner in addition to considerable attention be ing devoted to the middle and far west. To Test Sentiment. President Harding's political ad visers acknowledge fortunes of the administration are at a low ebb, and the president is probably equally cog nizant of this fact, but it is believed the record of the administration is one that will stand the test of public scrutiny. The president is credited with possessing a fighting eagerness to go before the country and present his case. According to his friends, the admin istration Is in position to claim it has j reduced taxes, balanced the budget, j Introduced economy in government, j has enacted constructive farm legis lation. has aided revenue business and has carried out a brilliant and success ful foreign policy, despite the criti cisms registered against It. On* of the things President Hard ing Is planning to dwell upon Is his conviction that the executive and leg islative branches of the government j should be independently conducted. T» Explain Foreign Policy. * Aa th* president’s official family now regards the situation it is be lieved the history and purposes of the administration can be outlined In the 20 set speeches which are content plated. Within this program a large ! degree of attention w ill be devoted to j the explanation of the administra-, tion's foreign policy with special ref »*i»*nce to the suggestion of American participation In the world court of ar bitration. Preparations for the proposed trip hre already being made by the per aonal and political friends of the president. _ NorrU Sure His Bill Will Pass New Congress Washington, March 5.—(Special.)— Senator Norris declares the fight to bring about a reform in the constitu tion, advancing the dates of the In auguration of president and vice presi dent and of the newly-elected con gress. has just begun.
