The presidential party included \.

That Macmillen has gained rec

tation in other centers was known

their delight with the music was
sailed with exquisite sensation of
making an original discovery Of
something fine and noble.
1T was evident from the start
that Mr.. Macmillen was completely
the lord Of every known artifice Of
violin playing. that his larder OF re-
sources was trimming. and that
here. at least, was a musician who
could not be tempted to trot out a

stituents who are vitality interested in the question
Of flood control.
Their situation, it may be discerned, is somewhat
similar to that OF senators and representatives who
are hazarding their political fortunes upon the chance
Of forcing through farm relief legislation which does
not meet the approval Of President Coolidge and his
advisers. They, too may discover that the people Of
their states and districts prefer the enactment Of a re-
lief measure which would be certain to stand against
an attack in the courts to one whose constitutionali-y
might be questioned.
Precedent favOrs Mr.. Coolidge in his deliberate
and courageous stand in both the instances referred
to. Since he assumed office he has on several ocea-
sions refused to approve congressional measures which
he opposed. Subsequent developments have verified
the wisdom Of his action. In the matter Of flood con-
troll legislation he seems TO have won a conspicuous
victory because Of the realization that he possesses the
courage, even on the eve Of a national election, to stand
for what he deems the right. 1t would be gratifying
to be able to record the reaching OF a similar com
promise agreement as to the pending farm bill.
