PRESIDENT BEGINS
TO WRITE SPEECH
First Formal Address Since
Campaign Started Expected
to Be Non-PoIitiCaI.
BY !. RUSSELL YOUNG.

President Coolidge today entered
upon the task of writing a speech to
be delivered sfortly-the first set speech
by him since the national campaign
assumed businesslike proportions.
He has taken only his closest asso-
ciates into his confidence regarding the
nature of the speech he started to COM
pose, but the general impression about
the White House is that his initial
speech of the campaign Is not to be
political.
The President has consented to
address one of the sessions of the Trien-
nial Convention of the Episcopal Church
to be held here next week, and has
tentatively accepted an invitation to
make the principal address at the dedi-
cation of a national park near Fred
erickSburg, Va, on october 10, and it
is understood that the speech he is
now writing is for one of these occasions,
and not for any political gathering.
Promises No Speech.
It is known that Mr.. Coolidge has
given no promise to any one to make
real political address during the cam
paign, although there are many, in
cluding leaders of his party. who are
under the impression that he will as
sist in the campaign to the extent of
speaking publicly in behalf of the
party's national ticket. Nevertheless,
Mr. Coolidge has given no assurance of
this. He has said he would be helpful,
and that is all he has said.
Herbert Hoover, the Republican NOM
inee, conferred with him again yester-
Iol
they discussed the progress of the cam
5paign. It is understood that the matter
\ of a speech came UP during their talk,
but it Is known for fact that Mr..
Hoover was not entirely certain in his
own mind just how far the President
is going to go in the matter.
Mr.. Hoover said afterward that the
President would make some speeches,
but he couldn't say for sure that they
would be what might be described as
political in their nature. To some of
those with whom Mr. Hoover later dis
cussed this phase of his conference with
the President, he gave the impression
that the President other than to say
that he would make two or three
speeches between now and election day,
made no promises. Nothing the Presi-
dent said could be taken by the nominee
to mean that Mr. Coolidge may be
counted on for an out-and-out partisan
speech.
In Best Of Spirits.
Although Mr.. Hoover left the White
House without definite promise from
the Executive for some campaign ora
tory, he was in the best of spirits and
appeared to have been otherwise pleased
as a result of his call.
The fact that Mr. Coolidge became
engaged today in speech writing, almost
Immediately gave rise to speculation in
political circles here that the President
was making ready to do some public
political talking. This may have been
prompted by hopes. Whether or not
the rumors about these possibilities
prompted DR.. Hubert Work, chairman
of the Republican national committee.
to call personally on the President just
before noon is not known. The chair
man did not remain long at the White
House and was not inclined upon leav-
