While all Statewide elections, and
especially q congressional by-eIectiou
have national significance. we are
not seeking to transfer the RESPONSE
bility.
Interest Is Appreciated.
The President has troubles enough
and we have no intention OF drawing
him into the contest At the same
time, we deeply appreciate the interest
he .las shown In receiving our guber-
Material nominee, Senator Whitney,
and our State chairman, former Gov.
Stokes.
THE early primaries have given
ample opportunity to heal any scars,
and harmony prevails.
You know New Jersey gave the
President over 600 plurality and
the voters want to strengthen his
hand in every possible manner. We
feel confident OF victory
Mr.. Whitney said that the Presi-
dent was very cordial and recalled
the visit ne had paid in New Jersey.
He said the President expressed much
interest in the campaign in New Jer-
sey and wished him success in the
November elections.
MY policy is to establish the Cool

Enjoyed Brief Respite.
President Coolidge was highly
pleased with the quiet and rest of
the six days he spent at his fathers
old home in Plymouth, VT, and the
brief visit to his own residence in
Northampton.
With but one exception, when Secre-
tary Mellon and Senator Smoot came
to discuss terms for refunding the Bel
GUM debt, the President had a real
vacation, he was free from the cares
of his high Office, or as nearly so as
it Is possible for any Chief Magistrate
to be. But upon his return he lost no
time rejecting upon what good time
and fine rest he had. but Immediately
entered upon the business of his Office.
After his arrival at White Court last
night, Mr.. Coolidge studied a number
of business papers which had been
brought to him from the executive Of
flee in Lynn, and today he entered
upon what is unQuestionably the
busiest week end he has had since
leaving Washington. The President
was up and about early this morning
and appeared eager to get back to
work. .---. .-....
New Reaches White Court.
He took q short walk which car

rived which was shortly after 10
o'clock. The latter reached Boston
on the Federal Express at 9 o'clock
and was driven to White Court in
one of the Presidents automobiles.
In response to greetings early this
morning the President replied that
both he and Mrs. Coolidge felt no Ill
effects from their long motor ride
yesterday and the day before.
Practically the entire 140-Inile ride
yesterday was in a cold, drizzling rain
and only one stop was made. that

B. Choate at Southboro, a suburb of
Boston. 1t was raining hard when
the time arrived for the presidential
party to leave Northampton and 1t
was thought at first that the Pres

because Of the weather. But he was
ready quite a. few minutes ahead of
schedule and walked up and down the
little porch Of his Massasoit street
