BY staff Correspondent OF The Star.
HAVANA, January l6~-President
Coolidge is overjoyed by the warm and
enthusiastic manner in which he has
been received in the Cuban capital
Those who arc familiar with the
characteristics of the American Prcsi-
dent could plainly see that the Chief
Executive, as he responded to the
waves and cheers of the people upon
the streets and as he arose to speak
to the distinguished gathering of the
representatives of 81 American repub-
lies. was deeply affected. This calm and
Self-poSseSSed man made little effort to
conceal his pleasure.
The welcome accorded him has been
unlike anything in Calvin Coolidge s
experience. A hundred thousand or
more tcmperamental Latins have rained
cheers. bravas and blessings that I'M
questionably have come from their
hearts on the man who has come Ia
their country on mission of good
will and friendlineSs. 1t is natural
that Mr. Coolidge expected a degree
of public applause, but he was antici-
pating nothing like the demonstrations
he has experienced thus far during his
visit. and he responded nobly to the
spirit Of these people.
Those i'll his party who thought
they knew Mr.. Coolidge through long
and intimate association. scarcely recoe-
nized him today as this affable person
age. while the CubanS have been deeply
impressed with the personality of the
President. They have lost their hearts
to Mrs. Coolidge. Her beamlng smile
and friendliness won every one virtual
~ the moment she set foot in this
country.

j. s. MAY PICK
NEW RIFLE

The familiar magazine rifle used
in the World War by United States
soldiers may be replaced by new
automatic rifle, according to the
annual report of Maj. Gen. Robert
H. Allen, chief of infantry, issued
yesterday.
Conditions affected by weight of
the weapon and ammunition carried
by the riflemen point strongly to
a reduction in caliber,'' the report
says. THE question is, however, a
broad one, and should not be set:
tied without consideration of all it's
phases. 1t is believed that a few
reduced-caliber machine guns should
be developed at once and given
comprehensive tests"
General Allen reports that one
special measurement uniform for
soldiers every three years is hardly
enough, since it forces the man to
buy tailor.made uniforms out of his
slender pay.

ment of speed in cross-country
transportation and the new light
