 FROM PRESIDENT COOLIDGE

George Sexton on this boat receiv- ed a personal letter from President Calvin Coolidge commenting him for his stand on Americanism in the Cleveland convention, and congratu- lating him on his appointment as Ter ritorial committeeman. Mir. Coolidge stated that only Republicans of prov en integrity should be appointed by the National committee, and that the honor of serving on such committee was too little appreciated by the peo- pie. Mir. Sexton also received letters from Lewis H. Smith, member of the committee on resolutions at the Cleveland convention, complimenting him for his valuable work and en- dorsing his appointment. The Cleve- land Plaindealer, the leading Republi- can paper of the city, gives Mir. Sex ton a complimentary write-up and endorses his appointment, believing that his Republieanism entities him to the office, regardless of the Progress sive vote at the primaries.
