TIMBER SCARCE
Many Lapses Between
Periods When A New
Englander Held Reigns
In the White House.
\
After Calvin Coolidge. when will
the United States have another
president from New England? This
is a question which can only be an-
swered by a guess. Yet it may be
said wlth a reasonable amount of
confidence that few persons living
today will be present when another
New Englander leads the triumphai
march from the capitol to the White
House. And the likelihood that this
is so is why republicans who hail
from the northeast corner of the
nations are so nearly unanimous in
their declarations that Mr. Coolidge
must-be continued in office for four
more years after March 4. 1929. For
they well may paraphrase King
Richard 1111, and say:
“Now is the winter of our discon-
tent madc glorious by this can of
Vermont.”
How New Englanders have come
into their own in Washington dur-
ing the last few years is an old story.
But the question of when they may
repeat the performance is causing
some misgiving. with many heartful
prayers that Calvin Coolidge may
stay in the White House for still
another torm.
John Adams, when he succeeded
George Washington in 1797, was the
first New England to take the helm
of the ship of stats. Even in these
days. when New England comprised
a large and powerful portion of the
United States, it was years before
another native of. that section be-
came president, with the accession
of the second Adams in 1825. Oddly
enough. exactly the some interval
elapsed after the election of John
Quincy Adams before the third New
Englandcr was sworn in as chief
executive. The Adamses. of course.‘
were from Massachusetts. And in
1858, New Hampshire was repre-
Oented in the White House. for the
only time in its history. when Frank-
lin Pierce became president.
No New Englander in 70 Years.
After the inauguration of Pierce.
no loss than seventy years elapsed
before another real New' Englander
occupied the executive mansion. And
this was Calvin Coolidge. In the in-
terval. Chester A. Arthur. a native
of Vermont had served part of a
term as president. but ho was to all
intents and purposes a New Yorker.
having mado virtually his whole
career in that state. as Mr. Coolidge
did in Massachusetts.
Thus. in the history of the presi-
dency. tho intervals between New
Englanders having occupied the of-
flco- have increased as the nation has
grown. If this may be taken as a
criterion, (and perhaps it is not a
