BELIEVES COOLIDGE WOULD RUN
Former Nebraska Governor Also
Thinks He VIII Be Nominated.

LINCOLN, Nebr., August Pl.-
Just returned from his Summer home
In the Black Hills, where he was the
recent guest of President Coolidge, and
the President in turn his guest on
fishing trip, former Gov. Sam r. Nc
Kelvie of Nebraska expressed surprise
yesterday afternoon at the announce
ment stating he would not be a can
dldate for reelection.
Il had no intimation of the Presi-
dents intention" Mr.. McKelvie is
quoted as saying, land | believe he
consulted no one, but made his de-
cision unaided, as he is accustomed to
doing. l am sure it was never dis
cussed at Rapid City. Though / am
surprised l believe, however, that Mr..
Coolidge will be nominated without
any action on his part and that he
will accept the nomination if ten

LEAVES MATTER OPEN"
Gov. Weeks Describes Coolidge Act as
"Commendable."

MONTPELIER, VT, August R).-
Gov. John E. Weeks in a statement
last night said that by his recent
utterance Calvin Coolidge makes it
definitely known that he does not seek
another term.
His very words" the governor
added, wise and helpful as they are,
indicate his commendable attitude to-
ward public service. The President
does not say that he will refuse a
nomination. He clearly and positively
leaves the matter open for free ex-
preston of the will of the people.

Resolutions denouncing the Gales

in Mexico occupied the attention of
the supreme council Of the Knights

here today.
A special committee has framed the
general form of the resolution to be

resolution is said TO be more concila-

Philadelphia.
The problem now facing the Catho-

HOLLAND. Mich, August R1.-
Secretary of Agriculture Jardine, dis
cussing the announcement of Presi-
dent Coolidge that he would not
choose to run for President in 1928,
expressed great surprise.
II regret the Presidents decision
keenly," he said. From my view
point, the country needs four more
years of Coolidge policies. He richly
deserves the confidence which the
country has in him and it were best
for America that he should continue
at the presidential helm"

The telephone lives a hard life.
Even before it becomes part of the
nations best known communication
system each instrument has to under
go innumerable te5ts. The engineers
In the department of development
and research in the Bell Telephone
Laboratories, New York, want to
know that each of the 200 parts func-
tion properly and will give a depend
able and satisfactory service to the
telephone user.
One of the ways that the transmit
ter-that part of the telephone in
strument into which the voice ia
spoken so that it is carried to the
distant point clearly and distinctly
is tested, is to give it what the en-
gineers call the life test" In max
ing this test hundreds of transmitters
are mounted on specially constructed
racks where the instruments undergo
many hard knocks.
During the process of making the
test the engineers attempt to put this
piece OF apparatus through every ac-
ton that It will have to face when II
Is attached to ones telephone. Real
king that many impatient users of
the telephone sometimes slam the re-
ceiver on the hook when they are
through talking, the engineers in
their research and development work
simulate the jar that would come
from this action. An electro magnet
plunger operated at intervals SO that
the supporting rack is banged and
shaken, giving the instruments the
same kind Of a jar that they would
get when the receiver is banged IN
impatiently.
One may ask, why ia it necessary
to go to all of this trouble?" But
the engineers do not consider IL
trouble. this is just one OF the MANY
experiments that are carried on 70
make better transmitters. And bet
ter transmitters. of course. mean
better telephone service. Users can
be understood more easily by the
people to whom they talk and every
one is better satisfied, since science
has taken a hand in improving tele-
phone apparatus.

TELEPHONE OFFICES IN
U. S. NOW NUMBER 2O,O32

At the beginning of the present
telephones In the United States. so
that by today the number is well
over 100000. OF the first total H.
S16,262 were Bell stations, Assoc
were connecting stations with the
Bell System and 1885 were indie
pendent
The Bell System is made up Of the
American Telephone and Telegraph
Company and twenty-four large asso-
ciated companies and connecting COM
panies. The telephones connecting
with the Bell System were operated
by 9,162 companies, and In addition,
there were 29,696 rural lines in the
country, the stations OF which are In
cluded in the connecting stations.
The number of entirely independent
companies comprised 400, so that
there was a total Of 9,677 telephone
companies In the United States at
the beginning of 1927.
These companies had total of TO-
032 central offices. OF these, 5,998 be-
longed to the Bell companies, 13,301
to the connecting companies, and 1888
were independent.
During the year 1926 there were
added to the Bell System ISL 900 tele-
phones, but in that time the actual
number of installations made amount
cd to 100000. In other words, one
out of nearly every FIVE telephones in
stalled represents new telephone,
while the other installations are occa-
stoned by renewals to new locations.
The telephone companies of the
United States had an investment in
plant and equipment of $4,000. 900 900,
this investment having increased
about $2e5, 100000 during 1926. OF
this figure the Bell System investment
amounted to 32,Ss2,24S,517, while that
Of the connecting and non-connecting
lines figures up to $487,766,483. The
Bell System companies paid the sum
Of $6s,6sS,2O2 for operating taxes dur
ing the year 1885.

RUNS UP
GOOD RECORD

For the third time in few
weeks. q new Essex Super.slx mo-
tor car has made remarkable
record Of speed and endurance. ac-
cOrding to word received by the
Hudson Motor Car Co., and trans.
xnitted to the Walter Lambert, Hud-
son-Essex distributor in the Wash.
1ngton area.
Timed by the Western Union
and officially observed by newspa-
per men, an Essex ran "a con-
secutive hours on the speedway
at San Antonio. turning up a total
Of 1,21S miles for an average of
50N miles an hour. The test was
made with q stock car by the Fam
ders0n Motors Co., San Antonio
distributors.
In recording the run, the San
Antonio newspapers saw that the
fastest miles Of the whole test were
at the finish, when about Az miles
were made in the final 4 minutes.
They tell also that the track was
slowed up by about two hours Of
shoWery weather.
"This Essex super six, said Mr..
Lambert, had been run about
1900 miles when the trial began.
In the Southwest the motorists are
more interested in speed than in
districts where population Is more
congested. They like a car that
can go across the country at Rus-
tained high speed. OF course. the
outstanding feature Of the Essex
Super.Six Is its ability to run an
average of so miles an hour all,
day long. The San Antonio dis
tributor decided to prove this claim
beyond any shadow of doubt.
The run began at p. M on
Saturday afternoon and continued
Just "a hours. or until the track
was. made ready for automobile
races on Sunday afternoon. For
the afternoon of Saturday. all night
long, and until Sunday afternoon
the Essex kept rolling up its miles.
A great factor In the success of
the run was the ability of the
Essex to take turns at high speed.
The low center of gravity and the
perfect balance of Essex construc-
ton enabled the drivers to take
turns even at night with scarcely
\ showdown.
THE dependability Of Essex con.
Btruction, and the performances
made possible by the use of its
Euper.Six principle, are everywhere
meeting with a response which
proves the cars outstanding pop
