Coolidge Defends
 Rep. Administration
Says Country Is Being Restor- ed to Peace-1ime Condi- tions, Steadily, Carefully, Deliberately, Wisely.

Haverhill, Mass, Sept. 23.-vice Pres ident Calvin Coolidge brought from Washington tonight an official view or the present administration. He was speaking at rally in the interest of Colond. A. Piatt Andrew, republican Candidate for congress in the sixth dis trict.
 There has not been time in recent history when each branch of the gov ernment, when the president, when each house of congress kept so plainly the constitutional functions as under the present administration" he said. There is leadership, there is advice, but there is no system of rewards and punish ments; freedom of action anC harmony prevail. Steadily. carefully, deliberate ly, wisely, the country is being restored to peace time conditions not the peace time conditions of 1914, but of 1921. All this is being accomplished with less loss, less sacrifice, less suffering, than that experienced by any other country which entered the war.
 Tt is on such a record of wise pol icy, of sound action and extraordinary | accomplishment that the admimsra- l tion asks your verdict"
 He reviewed legislation and executive acts disposed of or pending, and added These are sufficient of the record tc i show that a real beginning has beer made in restoring the nation to peace , and in putting an end to the extrava l gant expenditures which were bred O | the war.
 "A new era is opening up for Amer ica. The last election disclosed a wid and far-reaching dissatisfaction whicl extended beyond any party lines, witt the management of our foreign rels | tons and the conduct of our domeau afairsl which was broadly expressed i in a determination for Q change.
 Tt has been charged that these ob
 legations are not being met; that th present administration is one of lttl
 accomplishment; that tht congress ha
 wasted it's lime in the discussion c
 trivial proposals and failed in the SC
 lution of the larger problems.
 "The present congress has been i
