1928" is no positive assurance ne Will not oe can

public office, the woods would be full of candidates

Coolidge will not stand in their way OF LANDING te

Probably the president feels that seeking a third
term would be an uphill fight. No man yet has been
elected to q third term Washington declined IT,
Roosevelt tried it but was defeated.
In this great American republic two terms are
GOOD men. both Democrats and Republicans who can
fill Coolidges shoes and fill them properly
Coolidge will go down into history as big
American if he refuses to seek third term.

United States and Mexico may fol-

ambassador.
Neither the American embassy nor
the Mexican foreign office which
received first news OF the resigna-
ton from The Associated Press
would make any comment.
Mr.. Sheffield was exceeSs1gly
popular among American residents
in Mexico, most or whom greatly re-
gret his decision not to return to
his post. The ambassadors reputa-
ton. both among foreigners ana
Mexicans, was for standing firmly
and unyieldingly for the utmost pro-
lection of what he regarded as
American rights. This stand won
the general applause OF his own
countrymen with property interests
in Mexico but aroused the opposition
of a minority group OF Americans
here and caused some sections OF the
Mexican government to think that
he was somewhat too firm.

FRENCH OBJECT
TO PRICE OF COAL

PARIS. tP)-French coal consumers
are protesting against the high price
of coal and what they call the gov
ernment's protection of the coal IN
dustrys excessive profits
On a gold basis, say the objectors,
coal should be five times pre-war
prices, since this represents the de-
probation of the franc. Coal, how
ever, costs more than seven times the
cost in 1918.
Recent DEGREES barred the importa-
ton of foreign Goals, with few excep-
tions. Trade journals say this pro-
lection is not justified and that prices
are almost SO per cent too high. They
demand the admission OF foreign coal
to put prices on a world basis.

increased instead of reduced building
program.
AS one Japanese said today, cit
would noninally be a treaty OF
limitation, but really would be a
treaty of expansion, ;,
Mr. Bridgeman trained his guns on
the United States after the forenoon
session of the delegates, which was
characterized by such smiling efforts
to discuss the various problems in
a friendly spirit and such mani
festation of good will that all present
got the impression that the situation
had entered the realm of harmony
and the determination to reach an
accord at all costs.
Mr. Bridgeman's utteranceS later
proved that such ideas were too rosy,
indeed, they produced the clear con-
viction that the situation was really
back to where it was when the British
Observation-Disclosures accused tire Anleri-
cans of wishing to present an ultim-
atum and declared that If the con-
ference collapsed, the responsibility
would be Americas.
After saying that if they could
remove the suspicion that seems to
be going abroad" more progress could
be made "even on battleships." Mr..
Bridgeman declared that the safety
of country depended on keeping its
communications open.
He then referred to recent state
ment of Georges Leygues, French
minister of marine, as proof that
France believed in the justice of the
British claims for cuiser tonnage,
because of England's place on the
seas for centuries and England's past, ,"
and added that Britain's object was to
make it as easy as possible for France
and other countries to come into
the conference.
The statement of M. Leygues to
which Mr.. Bridgeman referred was
one in which the French minister OF
marine was quoted as saying that
nation should have fleet in pro-
portion to the place it has occupied
On the seas for centuries.
Mr.. Bridgeman then recalled the
speech of Lord Balfour at the Wash
ington conference as emphasizing bet
ter than he could that the United
States is secure because it is self
contained and self supporting, but
that Great Britain is in a different
position because she never has more
than seven weeks food supply at one
time.
"Any reasonable person will admit
that we cannot surrender our right
to live-our right to security he
continued. 1--WE were working on dis
armament many months before the
Coolidge invitation came. We are
discussing the defensive power of each
country and not it's offensive power !"
GENEVA, Switzerland, July Up
The indication that the United States
is not disposed to sign a treaty
which touches destroyers and sub
marines alone, but will also want the
cruiser problem settled, was contained
in a conmunique issued tonight at

marizing the achievements thus far
of the conference.
The communique makes clear that

sent to any agreements reached con-
cerning destroyers and submarines is

 All the Romanoffs, Semashko as- serted, were incurable epileptics, and the excesses of the women of the family, specially Catherine the Great, shocked the world. The flaw orite pastime" of Nicholas I, he said, was to order refractory soldiers lashed, and he finally tried to poison himself in a fit of epilepsy.
 Semashko characterized Peter II as "an idiot and profigate." He re- ferred to Alexander III as " a fat greasy hoppopotamus who preferred horses, parades and vodka 10 every thing else" Alexander, he asserted, had a mania that people were at tempting to poison him, and made his wife taste every dish before he ate it.

PRINCE RUSHES ID
 CATCH TRAIN, LOSES
Eight Mile Dash Ends in His
 Failing

Melton Mowbray, Feb. , (UP)- Although the hounds often leave the Prince of Wales behind, he never misses train if he has q horse with which to catch it. And some of the best riding his royal hiShness does is catching trains.
 The princes last mad dash gave the villagers a thrill. He was hunt ing with the Quorn hounds when the hunt was unexpectedly terminated by fog. The prince thought he might have time 10 catch .the afternoon traiU for London.
 Calling R. c. Hobbs, manager for r. Ambrase Clark, the Long Island millionaire farmer, the prince made known his desire to catch that train.
 Come on, sir" shouted Hobbs, it's a hard ride but we'll make it."
 They were eight miles from Mel ton Mowbray station. They scorned roads and pathways, and cut straight across country. taking ditches and fences as they came. The prince was mounted on a new stecplechaser, which he intends to ride in point-to- point events this season, and he de- lighted in giving his mount a su- Preme test. Hobbs said later he had difficulty in keeping up with the royal rider.
 : The prince dashed up to the sta tion. his horse breathing hard, just on the minute, only 10 learn that the train was ten minutes late. He smil- ing thanked Hobbs for showing him the shortest route.

STATE TUITION FEE
 IS CONSIDERED O. K.
Basis of Estimate Same as in
 Three Other Cities

:. According to preliminary investi- gation, the s60,00o tuition which will be paid to the state board of edu- cation for the teaching of New Brit tain children in the Stanley, Camp and Monroe state training schools is practically the same as that paid by three other cities which have these schools.
 X special committee of the school board of which George w. Traut is chairman will report to the board at this afternoons meeting and will in form the board that it will not make any changes in the contract until a conference is held with officials of the state board.
 The school committee felt that possibly the Consolidated school dis trict of this city was paying the state board more generously for its train ing school education than the three other cities in the state which have schools taught by Normal school seniors. It was found during the in- Nestigation that the Willimantic, New Haven. and Danbury Normal schools arrive at the cost of this edu- cation differently but it is practically he same as the New Britain con- tract.
 The state operates the Stanley Monroe, and Camp school at it's own expense. The only expense the city has to shoulder in these schools is the cost of the buildings construc- ton and the upkeep, Mr. Traut said odav.
 When the school committee repre- sentatives appeared before the board of finance and taxation recent ly, the board chairman, Edward r ! Hali, questioned whether the city oi New Britain was too generous in its Dayment 10 the st ate
