limitations to Wedding of Former
Presidents Son Hard TO Find in Capital
None Received at White
House Nor at Home Of
Secretary Davis

The President and Mrs.
Hoover will not attend the
wedding of John Coolidge
and Miss Florence Trum-
bull on Monday, September
%. And the least important
reason, perhaps, is that they
haven't been invited.
Nor, according to the
most recent reports, have
the Secretary Of Labor and
Mrs. James j. Davis, who
wereand undoubtedly still
are-very close friends Of
the former President and
Mrs. Coolidge.
Family Affair
It seems that this wedding is
TO be, as much as possible, q
family affair, with few, if any,
courtesy" invitations.
Only about q hundred people
have been asked to witness the
ceremony, which will be in the
Congregational Church at Plain
vile, Conn.,, with a reception
later at the home of the brides
parents.
Former President and Mrs.
Coolidge have received an invi-
! tation from the Governor of
Connecticut and Mrs. Trumbull
for the wedding Of their daugh-
ter, Florence, to "Major John
Coolidge" AS a member of the
Connecticut governors staff, the
bridegroom-elect rates this mill
tary title.
Star Role
Connecticut, naturally enough,
plays the star role among those
who will be present at the inter-
esting event. And so Senator and
Mrs. Hiram Bingham and family,
and Senator and Mrs. Frederic c.
Walcott and family have received
invitations.
Other officials invited include
j. Henry Roraback, chairman Of
