WASHINGTON LETTER
Especial to Sank Centre Herald

Washington, May 13.-With poll
tics at the lowest ebb, it is rather diff
6cult to provide conversation in
Washington which will interest the
the country as a whole. Our domes-
tic affairs are fairly stable, so politi-
clans and diplomats are trying to find
an excuse for their existence at this
time by specializing on the possible
ties of a third Hague conference. 1t
is generally recognized that there
must be some change in European
politics before a project of this kind
can be seriously considered.
In the locker rooms of golf clubs
and at the tea tables frequented by
the diplomats and official set of
Washington may be heard interest
ing predictions. Some say that ov-
ertures for a third Hague conference
have been made through the Inter-
parliamentary Union which will soon
pass, it is said, resolutions request
ing Mr.. Coolidge to call meeting OF
this sort among the world powers. Ac-
cording to the dopesters, it was this
organization and it's resolutions which
prompted President Roosevelt to
sponsor the second Hague tribunal :.
Whenever the subject is mentioned
others will profess to note certain un-
dercurrents to this effect in the
speeches of Ambassador Houghton,
former Secretary Hughes, and Con-
gresham Burton.
d.
The whispering gallery in Wash
ington will offer you as many opin-
ions on any given subject, seemingly
official, as there are hues in the sky.
Continued evidence as to the lull
in the political turmoil is given in the
closing of special news bureaus main
tanned by large daily newspapers in
Washington. Correspondents whose
political dispatches are always Gag
erly awaited by the readers of Their
J publications, have been called to the
home offices or placed in the field

tive sign of nothing DOING of a.
political nature in the Capitol. Those

phasized and their significance unduly

o.
The meeting of the international
| Council of Women is receiving con-
siderable publicity as their discus
| sions have been provocate of petty
quarrels. Nobody doubts, however,
the important relationship of women
to the. international situation. Ap-
parently the chief aim of this council
OF women is to bring the public mind
up to the world point of view. Their
sessions here this week indicate that
they are having some difficulty in
forcing a conciliatory process in their
own ranks.
Vice President Dawes is not the
only Government official selling
proposition to the country during the
congressional recess. Secretary of
the Treasury Mellon has blossomed
out as an orator and his proposition
will undoubtedly find little resistance
on the public mind. Mr.. Mellon is
advocating tax revision and his pro-
gram in nutshell is this: eve want
a tax system which produces revenue.
We do not want merely a gesture in
taxation. This is the crux of the
whole problem"
Both Secretary Mellon and Vice
President Dawes realize the strategic
Importance of the South and are car
rylng their arguments into this ter
rltory and talking along non-partisan
lines. Mr.. Mellon believes that zone
of the most promising aspects of the
whole tax controversy now before the
country is the wholesome revival of
interest in the division of taxing DOW
ers between the Federal and State
Government.
The tax returns for the first quart
er indicate that the tax rate will be
slashed 1t the same percentage of re-
turns prevail during the balance of
the year.
1t has been said that some little
anecdote gives to us some interesting
hint OF the inner life of a great man.
Inc announcement that President
Coolidge will spend the sumner
months at Swampscott, Mass, brings
mary questions from the public
What does Mr.. Coolidge do for d.
verslon?' is the principal inquiry.
Those who know the Chief Executive
intimately say that he would rather
read history than attend a play.
The story is told that while Gov.
ernor of Massachusetts,, Mr.. Coolidge
on cool evenings would draw up his
cheair near the fireplace and read for
hours completely detached from the
other occupants of the room. Their
conversation made no impression up
on him whatsoever. Mr.. Wilson vas
given to the reading of detective stor-
les and thrilling narratives but re-
quired privacy to concentrate. 1t has
been aptly said that there is no en-
tertainment so cheap as readinfi, nor
any pleasure so lasting. Mr.. Cool.
idee's associates say that he has cul-
tivated the rare habit of reading with
ref..e ction.
