*Last week Citizen Coolidge was journeying from Florida to California. Arrived at New Orleans hotel he could find in his bag only pajamas in which he never sleeps. After one bad night, he despatched a hotel bell boy to fetch him a stock of night shirts like the one he was wearing that August night in 1923 when he came downstairs in his Plymouth farmhouse to find himself President of the U. S. So eagerly did officials turn out to greet him, so readily did crowds gather to cheer him that some political observers thought they saw the germ of a presidential campaign in his transcontinental junket.
