HOOvER-COOL|DGE
HARMONY SHOWN
President-EIeCt Still Demon
strates His Support of
Present Executive.
BY DAVID LAWRENCE.

"Any one who tries to drive a wedge
between President Coolidge and myself
will find 1t futile job"
Thus spoke Herbert Hoover several
months ago when an attempt was made
in Congress to get him to testify at
variance with President Coolidge en- the
Mississippi flood appropria tons. And it
applies with equal force today to the
situation that has arisen with respect
to the cruiser bill pending in Congress.
Mr. Hoover has made it clear that he
sides with Mr.. Coolidge in the con-
troversy. And he has been trying to
make it clear that so long as Mr.. Cool
idge is President he alone is Chief Ex-
ecutive and there is no possibility of
bringing about break between them.
Speaks His Mind at Early Date.
Just after the nomination at Kansas
City Mr.. Hoover put his foot down on
what appeared to be the beginning of
friction. He recalled to friends that the
GOODNESS that developed between Mr.
Roosevelt and Mr.. Taft had its origin
almost Immediately after the convention
and that the appearance of two rival
camps would not be permitted this time
If he could help it.
So when Mr.. Hoover decided to 60 to
South America he consulted Mr. Cool
idge. When he came back he reported
to him. Whenever pending questions
required decision that might affect his
future administration. Mr.. Hoover con-
suited President Coolidge The intimacy
between the two men is not an accident
or a studied effort to give the impression
of harmony 1t is the real thing based
on an appreciation of each other and a
respect for ability and capacity
The fact that Mr.. Hoover telegraphed
so promptly from Florida contradicting
the impression that he was opposed to
Mr. Coolidges view Of the cruiser pro-
gram is considered here far more sig
nificant than its relation to this partic
ular measure.
It means that the Coolidge Hoover
blend or transition is to be accom-
plished in an atmosphere of friendship
rather than in rivalry.

By the Associated Press.
Secretary Wilbur recommended yes

Pacific Coast. The Secretary suggested
an initial appropriation of 100000 to
start the work.
Completion of two large rigid air.
ships. contracts for which were let last
October, would neceSsitate increased
shed facilities, Mr. Wilbur said, and If
such additional facilities are not pro-
vided within four years, the contract
for one of the ships will have to be
Cancelled.
ITO that end it will be necessary to
make actual start on the work within
less than two years." he added. Since
additional shed facilities are necessary,
1t is believed to be desirable that the
new base be constructed on the West
Coast rather than to enlarge the pres
ent base on the East Coast"
