Mr. Coolidge's Week

Mr. Coolidge's Week

Concord was the post-Cleveland keynote at the White House where the President, in a number of social occasions, undertook to 'bring the several elements of his Party together:

P: There was a dinner to which tried members of the Party were bidden-- Senators Lodge, Borah, Watson, Curtis, Warren, Brandegee and Representatives Tincher of Kansas and Sinott of Oregon. A guessing game was played-- by the guests--the question being "Whom will the Democrats nominate?" Two of the guests guessed the same man, Senator Ralston.

P: Chairman Butler of the Republican National Committee lunched with the President and gave his version of the Cleveland Convention.

P: On Saturday, a considerable group went aboard the Mayflower: Charles B. Warren, Ambassador to Mexico; Secretaries Hoover, Davis and Hughes, with Mrs. Hughes; Mrs. A. T. Hert, National Committeewoman from Kentucky; Charles D. Hilles, Republican leader from New York, and Mrs. Hilles; J. H. Roraback, National Committeeman from Connecticut; Senator Brandegee; Representative Burton of Ohio; Mr. James Burton Reynolds, Campaign Manager for Mr. Coolidge in 1920, and Mrs. Reynolds; Chairman Butler. They sailed on the Potomac for several hours and returned to the Capital to drop Messrs. Hoover, Davis and Mr. and Mrs. Hughes as well as Mrs. Hert.

P: At the same time, the Coolidge boys, who had come home from Mercersburg Academy, went aboard and the yacht put out again for the night. Conferences there were, to 'be sure, but all was peaceful along the Potomac.
