COOLIDGE SPEAKS
 ON ECONOMIC LIFE
Praises Spiritual Values" in
 First Talk Since March

St Petersburg, Fla. Jan. 1p LPl- Former. President Calvin CoolidEe has advanced the opinion that the character Of the people and the ae- emulation of capital have been powerful factors in accclerating the progress of economic life in Ameri- ca.
 Nothing has been more fascinas- ing than this economic develop- ment," Nr. Coolidge said in radio address last night. Nothing more completely demonstrates the ability of the people under our system 10 take care Of themselves The advo- tates of defeat have often assert od that the only economic salvation lay in communism. but the indcpcn- dent spirit of ;he American has con- stantly replied that the private owa- cTship of property is a soveroign right and he is able to take care of his own destiny"
 The former president spoke before the annual convention Of the New York Life Insurance Company, of which he is q director. His speech was broadcast over q nation vile lookup.
 Tn any estimate Of the power Of d country we find the chief asset in spiritual values. In this respect We are all equipped.
 While there arc no accurate rec ordS the first sources estimate our national wealth at from 800 to $50 billion dollars. Ou rincomc has in creased from a little over 50 billiort to more than 90 billions in the last ten years.
 He mentioned rapid increases in tho amount of life insurance in force and savings banks deposits, saying that the former had risen from t. and ono-half billions in 1910 to one hundred and three billions at the present time. and the latter from four billions to ten and onc-hI!f billions.

Honest Attempt to Study Student Reactions, Com mittee Finds-Two Fac ulty Members Disci- plined for Circulating Quiz Are Defended.

Washington. Jan. 10 tPt-The As sociation of University Professors through q special investigating con- mittoc has severely censurcd tho authorities Of the University Of Missouri for disciplining two mcm- bers Of the faculty who approved the circulation of q sex question: raire among the students Of that in- stitution.
 The findings Of the committee published today. denied the charges of President Stratton D. Brooks and the board of curators of the uni versity that the list of questions was shocking to the students and tended to make them lax morally.
 10 Evidence of "Shocl>'
 There is little or no evidence. :" the report Of the committee said that any student receiving the questionnairc was shocked or in suited by it. There is no evidence that the queStlonnairc led to sexual immortality or to decreascd self control in the matter of sex be-
 haVior on the part Of the students. Apparently before the publicity, the questionnaire was taken for what it purported 10 be. q scientific inquiry.
 "The evidence is in agreement on sex problems brought up by the questionnaire are familiar or known to every high school graduate be- fore entering the University Of Missouri"
 The circulation Of the question: naire was approved by Professor Harmon o. Dcgraft, who was dis missed from the university. and by Professor Max r. Meyer, who was suspended. The Investigation of the committee was undertaken at the request of President Brooks and many members of the faculty and students in the courses of Degraff and Meyer.
 The committee asserted that the action against the two professors
 was under the circumstances "a clear breach of the principles of ! free teaching and research and se- curity of tenure in the university
 All Charges Denied
 All charges made against the pro fessors were denied hy the commit tee. These. in addition to allega- tions that the list of questions tended to cause moral laAity and was shocking were that 1t "could not produce any scientifically valid
 conclusion and that it "tended 10 create the condition that it is al leged 10 correct"
 "professor Degraff testified" the report said, that as q student ad-
 wiser he had been frequently con- suited by students about the very | issues that arc raised in this ques- tionnaire concerning the sex code and the moral ideals that are in volved in engagement and marriage. The students testified that these problems of the sex code and of morals, engagement and marriage are frequently discussed frankly
 not only in fraternity and sororiety
 houses, but also by the girls with their boy friends"
 The report was released for pub liCation today in advance of it's ap- pearancc in the February bulletin of

Secretary Of Amateur Athletic

(ScCrctary-Ireas National Am

 New York. Jan. 10 LPt-Thc sec ond year of the Olympiad is usually quite dull as compared with the oth- CT three, but this year promises to be an exception to the rule. Every thing at this carly date. points 10 l930 being an extremely active year. at least in track and field, swimming, boxing, wrestling and gymnastics, the major sports on the Olympic program over which the Amateur Athletic Union has juris- dicton in the United States,
 The initial indoor track meet of the season last Saturday night in Brooklyn. with more than 600 good athletes participating, is indicative of the interest in track in an off year. More than 50 large open in door track meets have been sanction ed by A. A. c. in the eastern half of the United States Ghe only part of the country where indoor track is practiced extensively. These meets will furnish plenty of competition for the athletes desiring to run dur ing the winter months. Not even in Olympic years have there been more meets scheduled.
 In recent years the games com mittees in charge of indoor meets have felt that foreign talent is nec- fssary for the successful conduct of their meets, and although the na- lonal officers Of the A. A. L. do not share this belief, nevertheless they extended invitations to several coun- tries to send athletes here this win ter. The international athletic rule which forbids an athlete from re- ceiving expenses for a longer period than 21 days in a foreign country places foreign athletes coming to the United States and our athletes going abroad. under consdera ble handicap as they are called upon to compete in their first race a few days after stepping off the steamer. This rule is the answer to the decl- nations thus far from the foreign countries invited.
 The American athletes will prob ably benefit by the absence of for elgn talent through being able 10 bask in the limelight and publicity which otherwise would be showered on the foreign stars.
 Recognition by newspaper writers of the improvement shown by an athlete very often furnishes the needed encouragement to make him strive for greater heights on the the ladder of athletic fame.
 Invitations are already in hand for track and field and swimming teams to tour Europe next summer; also for a track team to go to South Africa If the British Empire meet is held at Hamilton. Ont. in August, it will be followed by a British Elm pire-U. s. A. dual meet in Boston, New York and Chicago.
 With the various fixtures in which the school and college athletes en- gage, the district association cham pionship meets followed by the na- tional championships at Pittsburgh. and the possibility of two or more dual meets between teams repre- senting the district associations of the Amateur Athletic Union, the track and field athletes of the Unit ed States can look forward to a year full of activity.
