MESSAGE PLEASES
SENATOR JOHNSON
Declares Coolidge Is Dis
tinCtIy in Favor of Boul-
der Dam Bill.

Senator Hiram Johnson, Republican
of California. leading advocate of
Boulder Dam legislation, interpreted the
Presidents message as being distinctly
favorable to our BILL
Not only have we the past utter
ances of the President" Senator John
son said, but now, with resume of
the new Engineering Commissions re-
port before him, the President definite
ly recommends our measure. Our op-
ponents have pretended to find some
consolation in the statement in the mes
sage that the electrical field should be
left to private enterprise; but this
cannot, of course, be construed to pro-
hibit the States, the cities or political
subdivisions from exercising their
preferential rights to power"
Senator Wesley L. Jones of Washing
ton, one of the Republican leaders,
made this comment on the Presidents
message:
1T is an unusually clear, concise and
business-like statement of our Govern
ment business and affairs"
Senator Robinson, Democrat, of

Discussing the Governments building
program in the District of Columbia.
the President said:
We have laid out a public building
program for the District of Columbia
and the country at large running into
hundreds of millions of dollars. Three
important structures and one annex
are already under way and one addition
has been completed in the City of
Washington. In the country sites have
been acquired, many buildings are in
course of construction, and some are al
ready completed. Plans for all this work
are being prepared in order that it may
be carried forward as rapidly as possible.
This is the greatest building program
ever assumed by this nation. 1t con-
templates structures of utility and of
beauty. When it reaches completion
the people will be well served and the
Federal city will be supplied with the
most beautiful and stately public build
ingS which adorn any capital in the
world"
Asks Aid for ColOred.
. The President gave particular at
tention to problems which involve the
colOred populatlon OF the country, say
ing that the Government should con-
tinue its efforts to aid the colored peo-
pie. He said:
Exploiting the negro problem for
political ends is being abandoned and
their protection is being increased by
those States in which their percentage
of population is largest. Every en-
couragement should be- extended for
the DEVELOPMENT of the race The col

the crime of lynchiEg, which has in

COOLIDGE SPEECH
IS NO vALED|CTORY
Presidents Aim in Last Mes
sage Was to Give Account
ing of Stewardship.
BY J. RUSSELL YOUNG.

President Coolidge does not want his
last annual message to Congress, which
was read before both Houses today, ac-
cepted in the sense of a valedictory
from him.
1t was learned from high White
House authority today that the Presi-
dent, in the preparation of this last
message, very StudiouSly attempted to
suppress any such feelings. He has
since expressed himself to friends to
the extent that he hoped his message
would not be interpreted in that sense.
His sole aim in this important paper
was to furnish the clear-cut business
like accounting of his stewardship and
to acquaint Congress with the happy
state of the Union and at the same time
clear his views regarding proposed legis-
latlon, without indulging in Senti-
mentalitieS.
"Coolidgesque Message"
The Presidents last message, which,
no doubt, will be looked upon as being
significant and will be very widely read
because it is his final message before re-
tiring to private life, is typically Cool
idgeSque.
He tlaated the various subjects calm
ly and IN matter-of-fact way He is
h1loWH W nave lnCenQeQ CflaC Cne mes
sage should be matter-of fact. He
strived at nothing more. He recog-
nized the limitations placed on his dis
cusSions of legislative matters because
of the short time he has yet to serve
Because of this he dellhera tely avoided
any attempt to be dramatic.
The President was very careful to
frame his message so as to not go be-
yond the time when he will be Slc-
ceeded in office by Herbert Hoover.
1t was not his intendtion to attempt
to take away from Mr.. Hoover any

torney Joseph C. Bruce announced an
attachment would be sought to bring
him in.
How the automobile left the roadway
and ran over the embankment and why
it was not overturned in the drop, po-
lice could not learn, since neither Mrs.
Bishop nor White seemed able to eX-
plain the cause of the accident.
Evening star., 1928-12-04

of those matters of Government that
he thought rightfully belonged to the
incoming President
Taking the message as a whole it
could be readily accepted as a happy
review of what Mr.. Coolidge considered
a most satisfactory condition of the
country. 1t is obvious that he attached
the most Importance to the physical
condition of the Government and the
general prosperity and peace of the
Nation.
The paramount policy of his admin
istration has been economy in Govern
ment and the promotion of prosperity
throughout the land and peace through
out the world, and it was obvious from
the manner in which he treated these
subjects in his message he believes firm
ly ne has been successful so far as they
are concerned.
Mr.. Coolidge has made no secrete Of
the fact that he will be content to leave
the White House with that record At
the same time he has impressed those
with whom he has discussed the subject
he believes Congress and the people in
general realize the present era of pros
perity and peace are easy to lose un-
less they are carefully handled.
Not only did he sound a warning in
tAlAo lCop6CG, UuJ IlC CduVlOllCu NOIlSkCoo
to be careful during the present session
to refrain from new appropriations for
immediate outlay, stating that unless
Congress uses Judgment in this respect
the Government will reach the end of
the year with what he described in his
message as the unthinkable result of
an unbalanced budget.
The possibility of his going out of
office, after all of his efforts in the
interest of economy, with a Treasury
deficit is known to have greatly wor-
ried the President since the possibility
of this was predicted earlier in the
year by the director of the budget.
One of the Presidents intimates said
today that if the latter knew he was
going to leave the White House with
the books of the Treasury showing a
deficit. he would feel disgraced-that
his whole administration would have
been in vain.
