COOLIDGE WAS SILENT CAL IN LEGEND

q man who served the public. He
was fond of quoting Tom Reeds
observation that a statesman Is
only a dead politician"
His Political Philosophy
His political philosophy was
best expressed perhaps in the
speech he made upon assuming
the chair rs presiding officer Of
the Massachusetts, Senate. This
address rivaled Lincoln's famous
Gettysburg address in matter CT
brevity and conciseneSs. In part,
he said:
do the days work. II II be
to protect the rights Of the
weak, whoever objects, do 1t. IL
IL be to help q powerful corpora
ton better to serve the people,
whatever the opposition, do
that. Expect to be called q
standpatter, but don't be q
standpatteE. Expect to be called
q demagOgue, but don't be q
demagOgue. Don't hesitate TO be
as revolutionary as science.
Don't hesitate to be as reaction
ary rs the multiplication table.
Don't expect to build up the
weak by pulling down the
strong"
1t was from this credo that Cal.
vim Coolidge largely drew his texts
during the bright years from
August 3, 1923. to March 4, 1929.

IS, HELD
AS CAR THIEF

Attracted by the manner In
which q l6-year-old boy was beg
ging for gasoline yesterday, Mont
gomery County Policeman Paul
Watkins, of Rockville headQuar-
ters, arrested James Strife, 16, Of
jamestown, N. Y, who confessed
to the theft Of the car which he
was driving.
Strife was arrested after he had
asked a Clarksburg. Md, mer-
chant for some gasoline, saying he
had no money and his tank was
empty. watkins noticed that in
stead Of stopping at the gas sta
ton he stopped about q hundred
yards away and walked back with
a can. An examination of his
tank showed it to be half full.
Strife told watkins he was on
his way to Texas and that the
car had been stolen in Wellsville,
N. Y. He had no driving permit
or registration card. He is being
held at Rockville jail for New
York authorities.

MIR. Coolidge was silent only
when his long apprenticeship in
the school of politics cautioned
him that silence was the best
policy; at other times he talked
as freely as any man.
1t is curious anomaly-but a
fact--that the general public knew
comparatively little about Calvin
Coolidge on the night he dra.
matically took the oath Of office
from his father by oil light at the
old Plymouth (Vt.D farmhouse. He
came into the lands highest Of
ficeS with the most thorough
preparation of any man who had
ever approached it.
Beginning at the very bottom
back in Northampton, Mass, he
had worked himself successfully
UP through every municipal, legiS-
latiye and executive honor the
State had to offer. Having served
as councilman. city clerk. mayor,
member of the Massachusetts,
house, State senator. president Of
the Senate, lieutenant governor
and governor then Vice President
under somewhat fortuitous circum-
stances, he moved to washington
to preside over the United States
Senate on March 4, 1921.
Little in Public Prints
Yet in the year and a half that
ensued before President Harding'S
death, comparatively little found
its way into the public prints
about Calvin Coolidge. At that
time he wasn't considered good
copy"
But the moment he took over
the wheel of state, all that
changed. Dating from August 3,
1928, the white light of public
interest was focused on his every
act.
The legend that was woven to-
gether was largely apocryphal in
so far as his witiciSmS of earlier
days and the stories of his lido
syncrasies were concerned. BY
word of mouth, these Coolidge
stories were spread from coast
to coast, becoming variously dis
torted as they went, but always
retaining some semblance of dry
New England humor.
Calvin Coolidge caught the pub
lie imagination as few men have
been able to do.

HELPING OUR BOYS

Three thousand regular army off
GERS were to be retired They are not
going to be retired. Reason: Six
thousand army officers are needed to
run the dollar-a-day camps in the
forests.
The story goes around that the
army has such a ring around these
camps that Bob Fechner, the able
civilian administrator, is just about
in a pocket. The army wasn't going
to control these camps, but it seems
it does. Queer how things work out.
However, one thing should be set
right about these concentration points.
They were intended as places to
which the great horde of wandering
youths might be sent to save them
from going to pieces. For that pur-
puse the camps probably are doing
a swell job, saving lot of boys from
becoming permanent tramps and
castaways.

is GERMANY FINDING ITSELF?

With the virtual elimination of
Jewish business in Germany by the
Hitler terrorism, prices are rising,
bringing complaints from the Ger
man masses. The Nazi bosses are
beginning to wonder if they have not
gone too far in their anti-Jewish cam
paign, and there are indications of
more moderation in their talk and
actions.
Worldwide protest against the
wild course of the Hitler enthusiasts
is having its effect, too, as predicted
it would in these columns and appar-
emily it is beginning to dawn upon
the Nazi leadership that perhaps they
have bitten off more than they can
chew There seems to be less bonn
bast in their talk and more intelli-
gence. If sanity is really starting
to reassert itself in Germany, the
world has reason to be thankful.

THE SQUARE DEAL

Conflicting descriptions of President
Roosevelt flow from the white house
Some say he is ruthless" and some
say Hes determined upon square
deal for the plain people"
Plain people have been waiting a
good long time for a square deal
Meanwhile they observe the testi-
mony in the Morgan inquiry. They
see that Morgan has had absolute
control of a great part of the Amer
lean nation. They believe Morgan
didn't have lists of ''favorites" just
for fun, and they don't believe that
interlocking directorates were just for
the purpose of making a handful of
directors do all the hard work..

JUST AS LABOR PREDICTED

When labor protested against the
civilian conservation corps bill on the
ground that it would mean competi-
tion at low wages with men in pri-
vate employment, it was assured that
workers enrolled in the corps would
only be employed on reforestation and
other forestry work. Now the very
thing that labor feared is coming to
pass. In addition to working in the
woods, apparently the $l-a-day men
will also be put to work on roads,
dams and other projects.
Louisiana's proposal to use several
thousand of the conservation corps
men on the building of a secondary
road system back of the levees has
been approved, and other states are
urging that the scope of the work
be broadened. Unless the admins
tration calls a halt, the conservation
work threatens to lose its non-c compel
itive character.
Labor's opposition to certain fea-
lures of the forest conservation work
bill appears to have been abundantly
justified.

WORTHLESS SECURITIES

Paul Darrow, son of Clarence Dar-
row, famous attorney, has sued three
New York banking institutions for
3,44O paid in 1927 for four Peruvian
bonds. Darrow alleges in his COM
plant that the bonds were represent
ed as good investments. They have
turned out to be about on par in
value with counterfeit money.
If Darrow wins his suit, lot of
other people will also sue and the
banking institutions may have occa-
sion to rue the day they passed"
Peruvian bonds and other worthless
Securities" on a trusting public.

Hosiery Union Names
Special Committee
on Work Conditions

Philadelphia the pas
sage Of President Roosevelt's indus
trial control bill, the national exec
utive committee Of the American
Federation of Full-Fashioned Hosiery
Workers has appointed President
Rieve and a board of five members
from Pennsylvania, New York and
New Jersey as an emergency COM
mittee with full authority to negoti-
ate as may be necessary under the
terms of the act to assure fair wage
and work conditions in their indus
try.
Realizing that the government will
not deal in this matter with the full
fashioned trade alone, the seamless
division of the United Textile Work
ers of America has been merged with
the Full Fashioned Hosiery Workers
Union, which has extended its juris
diction to include the entire hosiery
industry, seamless as we'll as full
fashioned.

British Trade Unions
Support Finish Sea-
men in Wage Strike

London British lockers and rail-
way mems unions decided not to ham
die cargoes brought to England in
Finnish ships if the dispute between
Finnish shipowners and seamen IS
not settled in three weeks.
The Finnish seamen and firemen
went on strike the last of April, and
the sympathetic strike of the British
lockers and railway men is designed
to help them in their fight for higher
wages, which are said to be about
one third the pay received by similar
labor in England.
The Trades Union Congress con-
tributed 500 pounds to the relief fund
for the Finnish strikers.

PASSING OF THE OLD RULE

Brig. Gen. Hugh Johnson, the man
who is to run the country as the
presidents what-you- -might-call aide
de camp under the Industrial recov-
cry bill, excites much comment
Whoz he? He was a big shot on the
War Industries Board. Hugh Frayne
worked with him there.
Some call Johnson Square
wouldn't yield either way. Some say
he regards many employers as being
plain and fancy fools in their deal
ings with labor, and holds they'll de-
serve just what they get under the
new legislation, which, it is implied,
will be plenty!
Johnson, building a staff now, will
have vast machine working under
his direction. How big nobody knows.
Interesting, too, it is that few in
formed observers expect the new law
to let go at the end of it's two-year
term. They expect it will be re-
enacted for another two years and
never again the old order.
If anybody has any tears to shed
for things as they are," or institu-
tions in industry as they are or have
been, it will be wise to start weep
ing right now, for the passing is
upon US.
The futuref All, that is the great
unknown, perhaps the glorious un-
known, perhaps the sad unknown
Anyhow, it is ACTION-plentyl

ANOTHER SOCK FOR WORKERS

ANOTHER SOCK FOR WORKERS
Here goes for another sock in the
eye for the wage earners and for all
earners of fixed incomes, reads q
New York newspaper article.
The article continues:
The New York Times, in it's finan-
cial section, reports on national
survey and forecasts that the cost of
living will rise from three to ten
per cent within the next 90 days!!
Many labor men believe this is a
most conservative estimate. They
hold the rise is more likely to be
above 10 per cent.
The extent of the rise in cost of
living will be largely determined by
the degree of currency imitation and
no authority can today say what that
will be.
Few, indeed, are brave enough to
forecast a rise in wages sufficient to
offset the rise in prices that has al
ready set in strongly. Butter went
up four cents, retail, over one week
end here.
Added to unemployment, added to
loss of money in failed or closed banks
added to the prospect of new unem-
ployment through railroad consolida-
ton, is the punishment sure to come
through rising prices that will cut
deep holes in pockets already hold.

condition of millions when he said:

- Where with our
we tell the truth
about many things, sometimes pro-
foundiy, sometimes flippantly,
sometimes recklessly. :.

Government in Washington bears
comparison to two situations just
now.
It's like revolutionary govern
ment, hectic with the job of mark
ing out new lines, its officers uncer-
tain and bit jumpy.
It's like war government, wor-
ried for fear the enemy will get
jump on it somewhere.
A good many of the officials try to
talk as if they know what it's all
about, revealing, unconsciously that
they don't
The truth is nobody knows just
what it's all about. They know a
new direction has been mapped out,
but they don't know all the moves
they'll have to make while going in
the new direction.
This is not to be wondered at. The
United States government has never
been SO completely changed in all its
history--not since the adoption of the
constitution, which welded nation
into some sort of shape, still leaving
it with growing pains and jealou-
sizes.
Secretary of Labor Perkins is an
example, perhaps.
She holds press conferences and
marks them by superfciality that
would be amusing under other cir
cumstances.
The tricorn hat has gone into the
discard, to be replaced by semi
severe straw that tries nobly to be
both official and feminine.
! On really important matters her
answer is either Il don't know about
that" "It's too early to talk about
that" or you'll have to get that
from someone else"
Growing less popular with news
paper folks, the secretary tries to be
more cordial, saying nothing Of i'm
portance. Routine things are easy
subjects, policies, nix.
Shadow on the wall is this, per-
haps: Under the industrial recovery
act, soon to be through the senate
the department of labor seems des-
tined to lose much of its Importance
and many of its functions, a fact
that. over the long run, is to be re-
gretted. But it's on the cards, II
seems.
Railroad union representatives are
gathered in Washington, watching the
railroad bill, determined that railroad
workers are not to be thrown into
the discard for the sake of operating
efficiency and mere money saving
Most of them will remain in Wash

stepped in to control them during the
war.

administration as attorney, and wht

unionis in his place.
