■Washington, Aug. 3.—With Cal

dency, the nation finds itself with
out a vice president, but the law
makes provisions for the secretary

other members would succeed to
the office in the order In which
'their departments were originally
created. , Thus the heads of the
Treasury. War, Justice, Postoffice,
Navy, Interior, Agricultural. Com
merce and Labor departments
would be in line in the order
named.
No cabinet member has ever
been called upon to assume the
duties of chief executive because
of the death of a president.
C. Coolldge, the president's father,
who is "S years of age, resisted the
- efforts of his son to induce him to
^^take the journey to the capital.
Neighbors from Plymouth and near
by towns gathered to wish the presi
dent God speed. From Ludlow, Wood
stock and Bridgewater, came men
who had gone to school with one
they remembered as "Red” Coolldge.
An army of newspaper men and pho
tographers invaded quiet Plymouth
Notch until the start to Rutland be
came a procession of automobiles.
Within a few houis the lonely farm
house had become a Mecca for hun
dreds. Less than ail hour after -Mr.
Coolldge (had learned of the death of
President Harding, a telephone was
installed in the house and the presi

Wheat }?0'i
Updike Praises Work of
Omahans to Stabilize Mar*
ket for Benefit of
Grain Growers.
Says Plan Well Directed
Nelson B. Updike, president of the
Updike Grain corporation, asserted
that the work of the special commit
tee of the Omaha Chamber of Com
merce is meeting with real results In
Us efforts to stabilize the wheat mar
ket. lie stated that no similar move
ment within his memory has been so
intelligently directed to the end of
aiding the farmers, in this instance
particularly the wheat growers.
Mr. Updilto takes an optimistic
view of the situation and gives his
reasons.
•'I understand that where farmers
are feeding wheat cheaper than corn,
they are wisely doing so." he said.
"If It turns out that any particular
amount of wheat has been fed, event
ually it will have a telling effect on
the price of wheat.
Kell Part of \\jpAU.
"Generally spei king," what I can
gather is that the farmers art eMiatf
only part of their wheat because
lack of storage facilities on titt farms.
All farmers able to hold bgek any
part of their wheat will themselves
get the benefit of any advance in the
price, no matter what causes the ad
vance.
"It appears, and it is the general
belief, that the next government re
port will show that there has been
many millions of bushels less of
wheat raised than was Indicated in
the last report.
"There has been more publicity
given to the efforts made, not only
by the farmers themesives. but by
business organizations—efforts really
Intended to help the wheat raisers—
than has been given to any other
movement to boost the price of w heat.
The intention of this movement has
really been to see that the farmer
himself gets the l>enefit, and no other
movement 1 have seen has had such
an intention so clearly defined ami so
earnestly observed.
Sees Profit in (onsumptioii.
"In 1915, according to the report of
the United States Department of Ag
riculture. there was consumed or re
tained in the United States 800.000.
000 bushels of wheat. ,‘and during
1920 tlte total was 775,000.000 bushels.
If we can do the same thing this
year, the price of wheat could be ad
vanced very materially, even though
we did not export any. We have not
raised to exceed 800,000,000 bushelB
this year.
"We are exporting some wheat all
the time. If the price of corn stayj
up so the farmer can feed his wheat
more profitably than corn, if lie is
careful about his acreage next year,
and labor keeps employed as it is to
day. there will be no reason why
wheat will not advance without any
artificial assistance at all.
"All of these movement", such as
'Eat more bread,' 'Buy a hag or bar
rel of flour,' Buy ,a thousand
bushels of wheat.’ Feed wheat when
you can get It cheaper than com,’ or
‘obtain a lower freight rate on export
grain.if possible.' will help the situa
tion.
"But wheat Is liable to help itself,
especially If labor keeps employed.”

opportunity to pay respects to the
dead leader when the body was taken
from the Palace hotel, where it had
rested since the end came Thursday

trip across the continent Is ended al
most countless other communities will

a lesser degree, for the train only will
be stopped to change engines and for
other operating purposes. It is ex

the whole American nation.
The arrangements for the trip to
Washington were made by the grief
