Fraser left there to become a resident of Omaha, Neither did the Texans make a holi day of the affair. Contrary to that, they did their level best to get Fraser to come hack and bring the Woodmen of the World with him. Mr. Fraser was second in command to Joseph Cullen Root, and succeeded to first place when the founder of the great organization passed. It would take too long to detail how this great insurance concern has developed under the Fraser administration, but the fact that he found it necessary to erect a six story annex to the 18-story building in order to house the activi ties of the organization is proof that it has grown. In addition to the Woodmen of the World company, Mr. Fraser has been active in a lot of ways to aid in the development of Omaha. He has aid ed tn all the drives for charity pur poses, and was active In developing the Community Chest. A promoter of the Athletic club, he was president and a director of it for three years. Also. Tie Is one of the directors of Brownell Hall, is president,-of the^ Home insurance companies of N'e braska, and once was president of the National Fraternal congress, and was one of the group selected by the government to form the War Risk Insurance bureau.

By MARK SUIJJVAN. Washington, Feb. 11.—The bearing of the present situation on the confi dence of the country in the adminis tration and on the Impending political campaign comes down to whether Coolldge is going to go before the country merely as the heir to Hard ing and standing In Harding's shoes, or whether he has the disposition and the ability within so short a time to Impress himself on the country as Coolldge himself. That Is the heart of the administration's problem and the country’s problem today. When Coolldge came into office, he made it clear both by actions and by definite announcements that he was going to carry on Harding's pol icies and continue the personnel of Harding's administration. To this end lie went to pains to keep not only all the members of Harding's cabi net, but also subordinate officials, who had been appointed by Harding. Harding appointees, who were quite willing or anxious to resign, were persuaded to .remain, and when some minor Harding appointee resisted the solioition to stay, Coolldge sincerely regretted It. Policy Believed Sound. At that time, this policy was uni versally regarded as sound. Coolldge was given credit for it ns an act of subordinating his own personality and avoiding the temptation to magnify himself as a new president by making wholesale changes. It was recognized that in the crisis of the death of a president and the taking of power by a'relatively unkown vice president the best way to avoid public alarm and to kee^ confidence stable was for the new president to make as few changes as possible. The self-abnegation on the part of Coolldge has continued up to the pres ent time. Far from yielding to what j might have been a natural tempta tion to expand his own personality and power, he has not only avoided displacing Harding appointees, but has refrained from accepting count less Invitations and opportunities to make public addresses and announce new policies. The only important public appearance he has made was his address at the beginning of the present congress. The speech In New York on Tuesday night will be his second public appearance; and high Importance Is attached to it therefore. l iiparalleled Record. Coolldge s self restraint constitute* a six months’ record, probably never paralleled by anv other president. Not only has Coolldge refrained from bringing his personal feelings Info elections of men into power; In addi tion to keep all the Harding cabinet members and practically every one of the subordinate Harding ap pointees, Coolldge has gone even fur ther. As regards severs! new ap pointments made by him. It was an nouneed In , the new* at the time that these appointments were made on the ground of promises made by Harding before he,dled. This policy has continued up to the present mo ment. Within * few weeks, when a vacancy occurred In the federal trade commission hy the resignation of Vic tor Murdock of Kansas, Coolidgtf chose as his successor the former pri vate secretary of Harding, George Christian. This appointment, by the way, has been held up 1n the senate hy opponents who claim that the federal trade commission is a very important body, particularly valued by the progressive wing of the re publican party; that the resignation of Murdock leaves a vacancy in the body of progressive opinion within the commission, that Christian Is not the equivalent of Murdock, either as respects his attitude of mind or as respects his ability and experience. Time to Break Loose. President Coolidge having con tinued the role of heir of Htyding up to the present day, there Is now come to he much demand on the part of the men who wish him well that it is now time for him to begin to administer the country and the party leadership, not merely as the suc cessor of Harding, but as himself. These friends of Coolidge claim that he has the personality and the in tellectual power to stand before the country successfully as his own man. They say that while the nature of the event which made Coolidge presi dent and the sensitive state of public feeling at the lime of that crisis made It desirable that Coolidge should identify himself with the policies and (the personnel of his predecessor, it does not follow that Coolidge should continue to the end to act as if it were his duty, so it Is expressed, to consult an ouija board to find out what Harding would have done. This demand for Coolidge to be Coolidge would have arisen anyhow. It is accelerated Just now by these quiet obvious developments which have come to bring Harding's Judg ment In some of lj>« cabinet selections most seriously Into question. These developments are not confined to the oil scandal, centering about the sec i retary of tho Interior whom Harding | appointed as a personal friend of his | I own. They include also the almost equally serious disclosures about the conduct of the veterans' bureau, which, in the magnitude of its finan cial and other operations, is larger than some cabinet offices. The se lection Harding made to-^nanage the veterans' bureau was. even more than in the case of Fall, personal on the part of Harding. This man Is now under the most serious formal charges. Injidditlon to these two unhappy examples of mistakes made by the Harding administration, the almost universal gossip of Washington is that there are others yet to be re vealed. These things, it is admitted almost without exception, make It im possible for the Harding administra tion as the Harding administration to continue to have public confidence, or to have any faintest hop# of suc cess in tlie doming election. The bearing of this on Coolidge’* future, and the line of conduct it suggests to him, is too obvious to need to be said. < Every politician savs that Harding could not be reelected and that Cool idge as merely Harding's heir can not be. They think it possible that Coolidge as Coolidge may have a chance. The tijne that would be a reasonable and proper time for terminating the period of Identifica tion with Harding's administrations happerls to coincide with the occasion of Coolidge* first and great test. Coolidge's friends claim most earn estly that he has the personality to renew public confidence, ami to give the country a satisfying impression of himself ns president if he lets his awn personality express itself freely and boldly. They claim the person ality is there. They say that he must neither try to continue to be merely Harding's heir, nor must he nor need he try to he any third person, but only himself. Has Deliberate Way. When that delegation of Kansas | | congressmen telegraphed Coolidge, on lh« occasion of the oil expose, that he should use the "hig stick" and otherwise do as Roosevelt would have done, his friends made the true reply that no man can successfully "fake" another man’s personality. They claim that Coolidge has a way "of his own which is better than trying to Imitate any other man's way. They claim that when the end of the chap ter is written, it will he seen that Coolidge has a method of hfs own that will be as thorough in Its process and as reassuring in its end as Roosevelt's wolild have been. They say that Coolldge's way Is more deliberate and ^ sure-footed, but no less thorough. While making this claim, these friends of Coolidge ad mit that from the dated points of his political fortunes, the imminence of the nomination and the election makes the tirpe very short, and calls for an early beginning by the essen tial first step of dissociating himself from some of Harding's serious mis takes in the Judgment of men.
