Just as the Sixty eighth congress
died by constitutional limitation at
noon, the senate of the Sixty-ninth con-
gress came into being, called in special
session to consider executive appoint

the vice president.
A special session of the senate Is
really not necessary to inaugurate the

Senate Chamber Crowded.
After them, members of the house
of representatives entered through the
main door and took places reserved
for them on the west side of the cham
Der, while the senators gathered at
their reserved places on the east.
Sprinkled among them were distin-
guished officers of the army and navy,
few former members of congress,
and, last, persons who have publicly
received the thanks Of congress and,
therefore, are entitled to places on
such occasions.

not be compelled to go through the
exercises inside the capitol building,
unless the weather was unusually

Stretching to the right and left of
the President as he faced the crowd,
and at the lower level running from

COOLIDGE, DAWES

Taft Administers Oath of
Office to President and
Vice President.

Washington. - President Coolidge
was inaugurated with one of the
simplest ceremonies of a hundred
years. Almost at the same time Vice
President Dawes also took the oath
OF Office ~
For the first time, not only the
thousands who gathered in Washing
ton heard President deliver his in
augural address, but millions through
out the United States and probably
many elsewhere, heard the address by
radio. President Coolidge spoke to
probably the greatest audience, seen
and unseen, that ever has been adj
dressed by any other man in the his
tory Of the world.
With all it's studied simplicity and
lack of display, which was at the
express direction of the President,
the ceremony was in marked contrast
with the event Of nineteen months

ago, when, reused from sleep by news
of the sudden death of President
Harding, Mr.. Coolidge took the oath
of office administered by his father
in the glow of an oil lamp in a YER
mont farmhouse.
The only vice president since Roose-
Welt to succeed to the Office by popular
election, President Coolidge renewed
his oath before Chief Justice Taft,
the only President to take 1t before
q former President.
Ceremony Follows Tradition
The ceremony was the traditional
one, and was carried out on plat
form built at the east front of the
capitol, before the great steps leading
to the entrance at the middle of the
building, spot selected In the his
toric compromise Of generations ago
when the house and senate each con-
tended that the Inauguration should
take place within Its own precincts.
While congress was winding up its
eleventh-hour business, the official
congressional committee called al
the White House to escort the Presi-
dent to the capitol. This was soon
after eleven o'clock.
Pennsylvania avenue, despite the
restricted program which cut down
the show, was packed as the Presi-
dent, escorted by troop of cavalry
and guarded by secret service men,
passed along.
At the capitol he went at once to
the Presidents room, adjoining the
senate chamber, and busted himself
disposing of acts of congress-
The prelude to the inaugural pro-
cession-for the Presidents journey
to the capitol is always the first part
of the actual ceremony-wa quite
different from that OF four years ago,
for President Coolidge had no out
going President to accompany him.

crowd, stilled cheers Intended Tor hlm'
out of consideration for the already
diving man who rode In the carriage
beside him. Little did anyone dream
that before another Inauguration had
rolled around Harding would have
preceded Wilson to the great beyond.
While President Coolidge was at
work in the Presidents room at the
capitol, Vice President-Elect Dawes
and his party arrived and took their
places In the vice presidents room,
where they were greeted by Senator
Cummins of Iowa, who since Mr.. Cool
fdge became President has presided
over the senate. There Mr.. Dawes
and his party awaited the beginning
of the vice presidential inaugural cere-
monies in the senate chamber, which
preceded by few minutes the inaugu-
ration of President Coolidge In the
open air outside.

filed by those fortunate enough TO get

SO much consequence. The wisest and
soundest method of solving our tax
problem is through economy.
Fortunately, of all the great nations
this country is best in a position to
adopt that simple remedy. We do not
any longer need wartime revenues
The collection of any taxes which are
not absolutely required, which do not
beyond reasonable doubt contribute to
the public welfare, is only species of
legalized larceny.
Under this republic, the rewards OF
industry belong to those VINO earn
them. The only constitutional tax is
the tax which ministers to public ne
cessity.
Further Tax Reduction.
The time is arriving when we can
have further tax reduction, when, I'M
less we wish to hamper the people in
their right to earn a living, we must
have tax reform.
The method of raising revenue ought
not to impede the transaction of bust-
ness; it ought to encourage it.
| am opposed to extremely high
rates, because they produce little or
no revenue, because they are bad for
the country, and, finally, because they
are wrong.
We cannot finance the country, we
cannot improve social conditions,
through any system of injustice, even
if we attempt to inflict it upon the
rich. Those who suffer the most harm
will be the poor.
This country believes in prosperity.
1t is absurd to suppose that it is envi-
Gus of those who are already pros
porous.
The wise and correct course to fol-
low in taxation and all other economic
legislation is, not to destroy those who
have already secured success, but to
create conditions under which every
one will have better chance to be
successful.
The verdict of the country has been
given on this question. That verdict
stands. We shall do well to heed it.

Moral Issues Involved.

StduuS. we SNAIL w well W uccu It.
Moral Issues Involved.
These questions involve moral Is
sues. We need not concern ourselves
much about the rights of property if
we will faithfully observe the rights
of persons. Under our institutions,
their rights are supreme.
1t is not property, but the right to
hold property, both great and small,
which our Constitution guarantees. All
owners of property are charged with
service. These rights and duties
have been revealed, through the con-
science of society, to have divine
sanction.
The very stability of our society
rests upon production and conserva-
ton. For individuals or for govern
ments to waste and sQuander their re-
sources is to deny these rights and
disregard these obligations. The re-
suit of economic dissipation to a ma
tion Is always moral decay.
These policies of better interna-
tional understandings, greater econ
omy and lower taxes have contributed
largely to peaceful and prosperous in
dustrial relations.
Under the helpful influence of re-
strictive immigration and protective
tariff, employment Is plentiful the
rate of pay is high, and wage earners
| are in state of contentment seldom
before seen. Our transportation sys-
TENS have been gradually recovering
and have been able to meet all the
requirements of the service. Agricul-
! ture has been very slow in reviving,
but the price of cereals at last indi-
Gates that the day of its deliverance
is at hand.
Nations Chief Problem.
We are not without our problems,
but our most important problem is,
not to secure new advantages, but to
maintain those which we already pos
| SeSS.
Our system of government, made
up of three separate and independent
| departments our divided sovereignty,
composed Of nation and state; the
matchless wisdom that is enshrined in
our CONSTITUTIONAL these need con-
slant efforts and tireless vigilance for
their protection and support.
The essence of republic is repre-
sentative government. Our congress
represents the people and the states.
In all legislative affairs it is the nat
ural collaboration with the President
| In spite of all that criticism which
often falls to it's lot, l do not hest
tate to say that there is no more in
! dependent and effective legislative
| body in the world. 1t is, and should
| be, jealous of it's prerogative. I well
come it's cooperation, and expect to
share with it, not only the response
bility, but the credit, for our common
| effort to secure beneficial legislation.
These are some of the principles
which America represents. We have
not by any means put them fully into
practice, but we have strongly signi-
fed our belief in them.
America seeks no earthly empire
built on blood and force. No ambition,
no temptation, lures her to thought Of
foreign dominions.
The legions which she sends forth
are armed, not with the sword, Init
with the cross. The higher state TO
which she seeks the allegiance of all
mankind is not of human, but of d.
| vine origin She cherishes no purpose
save to merit the favor of Almighty
! God.
