Plan Reception
 for F. ID. Roosevelt

East Port, Me-, July 26.-Plans for an informal and non-political recep- tion to be rendered to Franklin D. Roosevelt, assistant secretary of the navy, by citizens of East Port on Wednesday evening were approved to- day by the democratic nominee for vice-president, who is resting at his summer home on Campobello Island.
 A committee headed by Mayor John N. Henward, who is a republican, ex- plained the arrangements to him.
 MT. Roosevelt said that during his trip here from Boston on destroyer he worked on his speech of acceptance. As matter of interest to resi- dents of this vicinity MT. Roosevelt said it was no longer secret that the navy department had made plans whereby had the war lasted six months longer, the home fleet would have been moved from Hampton Roads to Passamaquoddy bay. He said that this harbor closely ap- preached conditions at Scapa flow, headquarters of the British grand fleet during the war.

Coolidge May
 Declare Self On i the League Today

Northampton, Mass, July 26.-Re- publican party leaders who constituted an advance guard of the host expected, had gathered here tonight in prepara- ton for the ceremonies tomorrow when Governor Calvin Coolidge will be formally notified of his nomination for vice-president. Members of the notification committee, headed by J. Henry Oraback of Connecticut, seve- ral national committeeman, leaders, prominent in state party councils and original Coolidge men arrived during the day.
 Speculation as to the character of Governor Coolidge's address of 'ac- ceptance was directed tonight toward the position he would take on the league of nations and the relative importance he would assign to his treatment of party policies to foreign affairs as compared with domestic issues in the period of reconstruction. It was taken for granted that he would follow, broadly, the party platform and Senator Harding's address ac- cepting the presidential nomination.
 The city with it's office buildings and it's residences decorated with flags and outing with pictures of it's candidate under the slogan flaw and order" prominently displayed in hunS dreds of windows and with it's clubs maintaining open house, gave evil dence of it's intention to do it's full part in it's tribute to it's most distin- guished citizen.
 The one place which did not reflect the general air of suppressed excite ment was the Coolidge home, situated on a quiet street near Smith college. There Governor and Mrs. Coolidge oc- cupied themselves quietly with ar engagements for notification day.
 During the afternoon John c. Cool idge, the governors father, arrived from his home at Plymouth, Yer mont.
 The program will officially open with a meeting of the notification committee at 12:30 o'clock.
 The notification exercises will be held at Allen field on the Smith col lege grounds at o'clock.
 Michael K. Fitzgerald, mayor of Northampton, who has just arisen from a sick bed, will deliver the ad- dress of welcome.
