COOLIDGE IS OUT, CHIEFS CONCLUDE — -C . ( Adopted by the Men’s Bible class of Broad Street ^Methodist church, in class assembled. Whereas: The Great and Supreme Ruler of the Universe, has, in His in- finte wisdom, removed from among us one of our worthy and esteemed members, Brother R. P. Adair, Sr., and Whereas: The long and intimate re lations held with him in his faithful attendance and discharge of his du ties as. pupil and president of this class, make it eminently fitting that the wisdom and ability which he has exercised in aid of our Sunday school work by his services, contributions and good counsel, he behld in grate ful remembrance. Therefore, be it Resolved: That the sudden removal of such a noble life from our midst, leaves a vacancy and a shadow that will be deeply realized by all of the members of this class, the ihembers of this church, and also prove a serious loss to the whole community. Resolved: That with deep sympathy for the bereaved relatives of the de ceased, we express our hope that even so great a loss to us all may be over ruled for good by Him, who doeth all things well. Resolved: That these resolutions be spread upon the records of this men’s Sunday school class, a copy printed in The Clinton Chronicle and the Southern Christian Advocate and one forwarded to the bereaved family. W. J. DUNCAN. , JOHN GRIFFITH. H. D. HENRY'. Republican Committee, In Meeting At Washington, Appears Convinced. Members Silent On Confab. Washington, Oct. 3.—Various im portant members of the Republican National Committee happened into town today and held a series of dark ly mysterious conferences with Chair man William M. Butler. Out of the hesitation, caution and apparent doubt that characterized the comments of those who would say anything at all about what the party chieftains were thinking, it appeared that the majority consider Mr. Cool- idge definitely and finally out of the presidential race. Mr. Butler, who had an audience with the president at the White House this morning, was even less communi cative than usual. He would not dis cuss what the conferences were about, whaY was said, or thought, what he thought about Mr. Coolidge’s famous 12-word renunciation, or whether he intended running for the senate again. Charles D. Hillis of New York, was only a little more informative. He in dicated that he personally favored Charles Evans Hughes, but w'as in complete doubt about Mr. Hughes’ jwillingness to run, and therefore did not care to “come out” for him. Also, Mr. Hillis denies he had ever said Hughes was the only man w’ho could carry New York against A1 Smith. Mr. Hillis’ position is that almost any good Republican could do it. Mr. Butler and several other cbm- mittee members sought to create the impression that today’s meeting w r as more a matter of mere chance than of design. The main purpose, it was said, was just to get together and arrange for the real and general meeting in De cember, when the convention city will be chosen. It seems that William M. Crocker of California, is-on his way here, hav ing heard .thalThis supposedly sewed- up plan to have the"convention at the Golden Gate had gone astray since Mr. Coolidge’s withdrawal. But to sug gestions that Mr. Hoover’s’candidacy impelled the party leaders away from Mr. Hoover’s home grounds, there slightly shocked replies that the com mittee members were not discussing candidates at all. It would seem, from a canvass of those present, that no word escaped throughout the day with reference to potential successors to Mr. Coolidge. The only reason there had been a sud den chilliness about the California plan w r as because of the distance and the expense of shipping delegates, it was explained. Even so, California heads the list, and Mr. Hilles said he never heard of any .candidate getting any benefit, outside of applause from the galleries, from having the conven tion in his home town. The only new report that got about as a result of the meeting was that Mr. Lowden wants to drop out of the racej that he is not making any head way and feels that all he is doing is being a bag-holder for the McNary- Haugeb sentiment, or, put another way, Vice-President Dawes’ friends are about the only ones urging Mr. Lowden to stay in the picture, their idea being that as long as Lowden l stays in Mr. Dawes ms spared the awk- iwardness of emerging openly himself. Among the G. O. P. committee members who chanced to be here to day besides those mentioned, were David Mulvane of Kansas, Joseph H. Kealing of Indiana, ex-Senator Ernst of Kentucky, Roy West of Illinois, who is secretary, William Hodges pf Colorado, the treasurer, Mrs. Alvin T. Hert of Kentucky, William P. Jackson of Maryland, ex.-Chairman John T. Adams, Ralph E. Williams of Oregon, Joseph W. Tolbert of South Carolina, Charles A. Rawson of Iowa, George W. Bean pf Florida, and C. Bascomb Slemp of Big Stone Gap, Va., w’h<r-is supposed to have all the Southem d^t 5 - egtftes in the palm of his hand.
