COMMENTS ON PRESIDENT
 COOLIDGE ANNOUNCEMENT

New York. Aug. 3, @- The na- tions newspaper comment upon Cooiidge's electrifying announce- n,@nt. varies from complete ac"ep- tance to utter scepticism. Repub- lican papers anticipate that. pub lie opinion will force him into a third term. The New York edi- tors comment is typical of the na- tion wide attitude toward world democracy. It also says. "by the voluntary refusal of the president to accept third term. great weight has been added to the prin- cipal of the anti-third tradition. which his less thoughtful support
 ars are ready to abandon. We be- lieve that the president has spoken without reservation. and has done a great service in the preservation of the essential spirit of the Amer ican Constitutional system" The Herald Tribune, a Republican pap CT, says "the statement. seems to be more of an expression of per sonal feeling. with regar1 to the situation which the president couiG nardly escape from the appear lnoe of being an active candidate to succeed himself Wha' would the president do if he had to choose between his own personal inclination and his obligation as citizen? We firmly believe that such a call will come and he VII respond to it." We will not be so as to question. the sincereity of friends and o.ter who might be warrant ed in maintaining that Coolidge has taken himself out of the field,
