Progressive Answers Cox
Governor Cox'S assertion in recent

advice only from standpatters and re-
dictionaries and ignores Progressives
has been effectively answered by the
telegram from Charles Sumner Bird. of
Massachusetts, to Governor Cox and
comment from the candidate himself
Mr.. Bird was q Democrat until he be-
came follower of Colonel Roosevelt.
MIR Bird in his telegram said that "the
opposition to you of such Progressives

James R. Garfield, Mccormick, Bald
win, Robins, and, in fact, practically all
of the Progressive leaders who stood
back of Colonel Roosevelt in 1912 and
1916, IS a complete refutation of this

Coolidge Declares
Farm Is Model for
Nations Industry
Says Country Must Come Up
to Standard of Continu.
GUS Operation and Pro-
duction To Be Prosperous

GREAT HARRINGTON, Mass, Sept.
3o.-Governor Coolidge, himself the
scion of New England farming fam
lily. to-day set the farm before the
country as shining example of the
way industry, transportation and min
ing should follow to best work out the
nations economic future. Contrasting
the uninterrupted production Of the
farm with conditions in other lines,
the Governor said a grave RESPONSE
bility rested alike on managements
and employees to bring their activities
up to the farm standard of continuous
operation.
There is before US" he said, "a
prospect the most promising that ever
lay before nation in all history. We
can put forth our honest efforts and
reap a great reward. We aan act the
part of economic slackers. of con-
scienceless profiteers, and reap cor
responding harvest of destruction. The
farm of the nation is setting shining
example. Let the rest of the country
look at it, appreciate it and initiate
1t; and let everybody remember that
so long as the farm prospers the ma
ton can prosper, and that when the
farm fails the nation fails with it,"
Governor Coolidge's address was pre-
pared for delivery to county fair
crowd, gathered for the annual ex-
hlblts of the products of the country
side at the Housatonic Agricultural
Society's grounds.
agriculture is the basic activity of
all mankind" the Governor said. "In
the nation the yearly value of its
products reaches the stupendous sum
of $25 900, 100000, sufficient to pay the
national debt The Importance of ag-
rlculture lies in the fact that it is the
source of all human activity and the
sustainer of all human effort 1t re-
plenishes the nation. Without it our
country would perish in a day.
The production Of the farm is never
interrupted. 1t never closes down. I'M
fortunately this is not the case in in
dustry. There is grave responsibility
on those who manage and those who
are employed in industry, in trans
portation. in mining, to bring their
activities up to the farm standard of
continuous operation.
There is nothing our industrial life
so needs at present as pacification.
We cannot prosper without it, With
it we cannot fail. Our whole future
is dependent on it, our place in the
world abroad, our comfortable circum-
stances at home. This can be secured
by the administration of economic ius-
tice so far as possible and by timely
and mutual concessions by all parties
IN interest when necessary. We need a
broader public recognition of these
duties"

City to Have Plenty of Coal
Large Supply Due Soon; Price Is
So a Ton More Than Last Fall

No coal famine threatens New York
this winter, according to leading deal
ers. While no coal for home consump-
tion has been received at Atlantic tide
water since April, due to the anthracite
coal strike, they predicted yesterday
that before cold weather New York
will have an adequate supply.
Because of railroad congestion and
shipping troubles in the West orders
have been issued by the Interstate
Commerce Commission to fill orders
for that section first.
Dealers urged consumers here to buy
only what they actually needed for i'm
mediate use in order to conserve the
supply on hand, promising unlimited
deliveries before December l.
Coal now is selling at from $3.50 to
SIS ton, according to grade. This is
an advance of So over last falls prices,
and is attributed to the increased
freight rates of 40 per cent and in
creased wage schedules.
