COOLIDGE COOLEST
/ AS FIGHT CLOSES
No Hysteria or UpheavaI at
White House as Election
Draws Near.
BY ROBERT r. SMALL.

The man in Washington apparently
the least concerned in next Tuesday g
election is the man most concerned in
1t. If ever there was any doubt about
President Coolidges ability to keep
cool' the campaign just closing has dis
Bipated it.
Those who have pictured the White
House as a sort of madhouse in these
last days Of the big quadrennial up
heaval have shot far wide of the mark
A Midsummer calm has prevailed. There
has been only the faintest suggestion
of politics now and then, the President
having consented to receive small dele
cations of longshoremen, actors and
representatives of national advertising
agencies.
White House attaches cannot recall
when it was the President last con-
ferred with Chairman Butler of the Re-
publican national committee. No man
prominent nationally in the campaign
has been at the Executive Mansion in a
coon's age.
With but four days intervening be-
fore the casting of the ballots, this was
President Coolidge's complete program
for today:
AS a.m.-Receive the French Am
bassador to present Nj F'irmn Gemer
director of the Odeon Theater, Paris.
IL a.m.-Receive Representative
Porter of Pennsylvania, chairman of
the House committee on foreign af
fairs.
11:15 .m.-Receive Senator Weller
of Maryland
1l:30 a.m.-Receive F.. Wesley
Phelps. Mrs. Phelps and daughter.
11:45 a.m.-Receive Frank w. Ma
hin, United States consul at Amster-
dam. to pay his respects.
1880 p.m.-Receive about 500 mem
bers of the National Colored Minis
ters' tional Alliance.
And this, it might be said. was
comparatively a busy day at the
White House in the heat of the cam
paign.
Political Breakfasts.
The President has given three or
four political breakfasts" but the
entertaining. which always has been
part and parcel of Presi-
dents program for reelection, has
oeen largely conspicuous by its alb
sence. When the CoolidgeS have en-
tertained at breakfast they have stuck
steadfastly to New England customs
and New England menus They have
served fruit and cereal and hot cakes
with maple sirup; sausage. poached
eggs, crisp bacon. rolls and coffee
The friends of the President say
his attitude during the campaign has
not been one of Indifference They

confidence, and they have been able

LENROOT TO VOTE
FOR JUDGE LUCK
Senator in Address at Chippewa Falls
Comes Out for Democratic
Candidate.

Chippewa Falls, Wis.-While dis
claiming any desire to influence the
votes of others, United States Senator
Irvine L. Lenroot, speaking here last
night declared that he believed he
would best serve the interests of the
state of Wisconsin by voting for
Judge Martin Lueck, Democrat, for
governor at the November election,
and stated that he would do so.
The senator's announcement came at
the end of a discussion of federal and
national taxation in which he pointed
out that while federal taxes had been
reduced approximately forty per cent
since 1921, state taxes have increased
by the same percentage in that time.
Governor Blaine has now repu-
dated the Republican party except for
the purpose of getting votes for him
SELF" asserted Mr.. Lenroot. Gle is
still running on the Republican ticket
but he is not supporting the party or
it's nominee for President, but is en-
gagged in denouncing that party whose
label he wears when running for Of
flee. Therefore the Republicans of
Wisconsin are in no wise responsible
for his administration, or under any
obligation to give him their support.
81 have never undertaken to tell any
body how they shall vote, and / shall
not do so now, but as for myself,
believe that can best serve the great
state of Wisconsin, and the Republi-
can party which has honored me, by
voting for Judge Lueck for governor,
and / shall do so.">

COOLIDGE PRAISES
| WORK OF LUTHERANS
President Sends Letter TO Great
Church Organization in Session
in. Chicago

Chicago, ILL., - President Coolidge
in greeting read here today lauded
the contribution of the Lutherans to
the development of the original col
onies of this country and to the strug-
gle for American independence. He
congratulated the United Lutheran
church in America, which is in biennial
convention, and its related bodies be-
cause "they are nuturing" among new
corners from Europe the American
ideals of the early Lutheran colon
lists.
His letter, which was read at the
convention follows:
IT extend my greetings to the fourth
biennial convention Of the United
Lutheran church in America.
"Made up in such large degree of
the descendants of that sturdy Luther
an stock which played such an import
ant part in the development of the
colonies and in the success of the rev.
dictionary war, the United Lutheran
church has proud heritage.
"As study the three great move
ments of humanity into the American
colonies, the Puritans into England,
the Lutherans and Quakers into Penn
sylvania. and the Cavaliers into Vir-
pinia, and examine the history of
their amalgamation in blood and unity
in spirit, / realize that this amalga-
nation and union form one of the
foundations of Americas greatness.
"Muhelberg and his men from Penn
sylvania and the Lutheran soldiers
from western Maryland, the Shenan-
doah valley of Virginia, western
North Carolina and South Carolina
made glorious history for the patriot
cause during the Revolutionary war.
Their descendants spreading out over
the Mississippi valley had leading
role in the development of that great
granary of the world.
During the Civil war such organiza-
tions as the Iron Brigade were on every
battlefield up-holding the unity of the
states.
at is little wonder that with such
traditions to inspire their sons and
RTaHQ68HSy bASN PC SCiA1 " SAAO A@NOAAS-
ans in America were in the service
of their country during the World
war, as compared with tour per cent
for the general population.
ssThe sons of Scandinavia who have
come to America in more recent times
have shown the same sturdy spirit
and represent a contribution of vast
value to the human assets of our
country's future.
81 am happy to recognize that the
United Lutheran church and its re-
lated bodies, all partaking of the
Americanism implanted in their an
cestry and tradition, are nuturing the
same in the hearts of those of their
faith who now leave Europe and cast
their fortunes with our people"
The convention as opened last night
with a sermon by Rev. DR.. H. R.
Knuble of New York, president of the
church, who said in part.
4Too much does the church covet
and possess the reputation of being a
society of good people,. 1t would have
truer social message Il it were bet
ter known and wished to be better
known as an association of acknowl-
edged sinners who have oeen, forgiven
and forgive"

PREPARATION plan has been in operation
but short time there is "more hope,
more good will, aye, and more char
ity abroad in Europe than there has
been for ten years ait least, If not
almost from time immemorial," Sir
Esme Howard, British ambassador to
the United States, declared in an ad-
dress here today at luncheon of the
New York board of trade and trans
portation.
Speaking. on the general subject OF
economies in international politics and
international trade as a factor for
peace, the ambassador also referred to
past activities of certain concession
hunters and company promoters, in
world fields, which some times have
threatened the peace Of the world. lie
declared that there is "only one way
to eliminate this possible danger to
peace and good will, and that is by
the strict application of the American
doctrine of the open door," 80
'Nf there is one thing we have
learned during the last few strenuous
and terrible years." he said, ut is
the necessity of recognizing the value
of economics in international politics
Nothing has, believe, ever brought
this so home to the world as the
struggle over the Dawes reparation
scheme, which brought the whole ques-
ton out of the murky atmosphere OF
sentiment and politics down onto the
bed rock of hard economic fact and
proved to those interested that it is
when you come to dealing in sums
required for PREPARATIONS, almost as
difficult to receive them without up
setting the economic applicant as to
pay them.
seven now there are many who be-
lieve that the payment of the sums
fixed by the Dawes plan may produce
economic convulsions in the creditor
countries. That is a point of view
which cen the greatest financiers at
the Paris conference barely limited at
but now. the doctors are agreed that
a surfeit of gold or goods may prove
as indigestible to a nation as "a sur
felt Of mince pies at Christmas to a

government expense, who is now pay
ing their expenses, and what ihstruc-
tions they are working under from
the state department.
81 suggest you subpoena also Secre-
tary Hughes to bring all correspond

so should be asked what others con-
nected with the state departments are
being used in the campaign.

TWO HUSBANDS
GET DIVORCES
Elmer HEIDI and Joseph
ROitz Granted Divorce
DEGREES from Wives.
NEITHER WIFE APPEARS

Husbands had their inning in the
divorce suits on the circuit court cal
endar late Tuesday afternoon when
two DEGREES of divorce were granted to
Kenosha husbands, both on the charges
of desertion. In neither case did the
wife appear in court to contest the
action.
Elmer HEIDI, after a short hearing,
was granted a decree from Elizabeth
Heidi, both on the grounds of cruel
and inhuman treatment and on the
grounds of desertion. The two were
married in Algoma, Iowa, January 10,
1924, and had live in Kenosha only a
few months. He claimed that his wife
deserted him on June %, 1924, and has
persistently refused to return to the
home which he has provided.
Wanted Her Freedom.
The complaint in this case alleged
that the wife, Elizabeth HEIDI had
told the plaintiff that "she had fallen
in love with another man and that she
wanted her freedom so that she could
marry him." The "other man" was
not named in the complaint. It was
also alleged that the wife in refusing
to return to the home had declared
that she wished to be alone so that
she "could have good time by going
to dances with other men,"
Attorney John F. Kuehnl represented
the plaintiff, to whom the divorce was
granted.
Other Marriage Overseas.
The other divorce action heard and
granted was that brought by Joseph
Roitz against Elizabeth Roitz. They
were married in Croatia several years
ago~a and had come to America. The
complaint, drawn by Attorney A. L
Drury, alleges that the couple had
purchased some land and that the hus-
band has already deed half portion
of this to the wife, thus settling any
property involved in the action.
The complaint alleges that the wife
deserted the husband in May, 1919
and has since refused to return to
the home. No children have been born
to the couple.

capital as contributions to fight La
Toilette in the west In as much as
no such statement appeared in the rec
