Calvin Coolidge ousted Harry
M. Daugherty in the hope that
he would relieve the pressure
that threatens to wreck his
cabinet and make of the pres
emit republican administration
an international laughing stock.
The republican papers thru
out the country are endeavor-
ing to present. this belated act
Of Cautious Calvin" as an
other proof of the wisdom
which animates this Wall
Street automaton, showing that
while he has an, eye to the dig
nifty of the office and the
preservation of the best inter-
ests of the American people he
refused to be bludgeoned by
the enemies of the republican
party into a hurried compliance
with the almost universal de-
mand for the ousting of the
attorney General.
Oily Tool of Big Interests.
But Coolidge cannot save himself
by letting Daugherty go. The at
torney general at worst was only
the tool of big capitalist interests
who controlled the present admin
istration, of which Coolidge is the
head.
1t has been proved 70 the salts
faction of everybody that the Hard
ing cabinet was a bought and paid
for cabinet, bought and paid for by
the money power in an open man
ner, signifying their contempt for
the workers of this country and
confident of their power to block
any effort to bring them to book
for their crimes.
Calvin Coolidge is today the re-
sponsible head of that group which
agreed to barter away the resources
of the United States for a consid-
GRAFTON. He assumed the mantle
that Harding wore and en- his as

Harding's death, Mr.. Coolidge prom
Used to faithfully carry out the pol

he has faithfully done. He has kept
his promise to the plurderbund.
"Pay-triotism" Is Exposed.
Calvin Coolidge today stands con-
victed before the bar Of public. opin-
ion as the head of the greatest con-
spiracy that ever revealed the class
character Ct the American govern
ment. The alleged patriotism of
the capitalist parties is row exposed
as sham. 1t has been proved that
both parties have sold for cash the
very resource they were charged to
protect. In dropping Daugherty,
Coolidge is simply throwing a bone
to the wolf of popular indignation
which is bowling for his own head.
The workers and farmers of the
United States will not be satisfied
until the ringleader of this conspir-
acy is brought before the bar and
irnpeached. Coolidge was the boon
companion of all the criminal ele-
ments who have been charged pub
licly and convicted Of violating the
laws, made by the capitalists them
selves but laws that are only en-

Coolidge must go.
The DAILY WORKER CORES
pondent learns that Daugherty is
not in a merry mood and is threat

lantic City to "spill the Deans, but
it is no secret that tremendous
pressure Is being brought to bear
on him by the money power which
is backing Coolidge for the presi-

matter Of fact the situation has
