Harding Made a Fine Impression in Des Moines
Citizens who heard Senator W G Harding in Des Moines yesterday returned home echoing enthusiasm for the Republican nominee. A large crowd lined the streets and packed the Coliseum as Harding greeted admirers with a cordial handshake and smiling bearing. He rode with Senator Cummins and Nate Kendall, acknowledged upper window watchers, and deftly answered questions from Iowa Democrats while fending off hecklers. Mrs Harding joined him on stage at the Coliseum and was introduced by Cummins as one of the best cooks the Iowa senator has known. Also, Hubert Wilson returned home from army service and is staying with his mother, a grandson of R Stuart noted for wartime service.
