WHEAT GETS CORNSTRENGTH Inclined to Sag Early, But Rallies Chicago, Aug. 15.—(By the A.

But I shall send my lug- gage in advance, “I shall wear my blue serge cos- tume for coming home: in. I hope it will be a fine day; I hate com- ing home in the rain. “I mustn't lose the return half of my ticket ; and I'll ask about the time of the train for coming back as soon as I arrive, to make sure,” “Well, good-by for .the. present, dear.

SENSE COOLIDGE PLEA IN ACCEPTANCE (Continued from page one.) is the indirect effect of high sur- taxes on all the rest of the people. Let us always remember the pogr. Whatever cry the demagogue may. make about his ability to, tax the rich, at the end of the year it will always be found that the people as a whole have paid the taxes. Every student knows that excessively high rates defeat their own purpos They dry up that source of revenue and leave those paying the lower rates to furnish all the taxes.” In this connection, Mr. Coolidge promised to cut down the burden of government costs. “I want the people of America to be able to work less for the gov- ernment and more for themselves,” he said, “I want them to have the rewards of their own industry. That is the chief meaning of freedom.” The President’ indicated an inten- tion to make several adjustments in the tariff through the elastic pro- visions. “As the business of the world be- comes stabilized,” he continued, “without throwing all our economic system into confusion, we can raise or lower specific schedules to meet the requirements of a scientific ad- justment.” In foreign affairs, Mr. Coolidge described the administration as seeking only peace—through efforts by the Dawes commission in settling the: reparations problem, establish- ment of many .treaties and: seeking entrance ‘in the permanent {court of International Justice. He -called; attention to the refusal of: ratifi- cation of the League of Nations Covenant but recalled cooperation by the goverament with the League in suppressing the narcotic trade and promoting public health. “We have every desire to help,” he added, “but the time, the place, and the method must be left to our. determination. Under: our consti- tution we cannot foreclose the right of the President or the Congress to determine our future problems when: they je.” Recalling the disclosures in con- nection with the Naval Oil Reserve leases,. Mr? Coolidge reiterated his determination to “use every possible effort to resisf corruption in of- fice.” “The American government must be clean,” he said, “the laws of th land are being, and will continue to be, enforced. The government is sound. Individuals charged with wrongdoing are g prosecuted; The people of this country hate cor- ruption, They know my position.

Accomplishments In a recital of the government's accomplishments . since March 4, 1921, Mr. Coolidge mentioned the Arms Conference, the restaration of a technical state of peace, the negotiation of treaties with many countries, repeal of wartime taxes, funding of a large part of the for. eign debt, improvement in employ- ment conditions, enhancement of the prices of government bonds, re- duction of the cost of government, establishment of the budget, imm gration reform, reduction of the Army and Navy to a “low peace time basis,” conversion of war materials and supplies into cash, increase in wages, a revival of industry, estab- lishment of the Veterans Bureau, enactment of “generous” law for the relief of disabled veterans, and establishment of a tariff act. Touching on the new immigration law, Mr, .Coolidge recalled his pref- erence for a clause on Japanese ex- clusion which would be “less likely to offend the sensibilities of the Japanese people” but emphasized that the law has been passed, and approved and “the incident is closed.” Progressive Thought “We are likely to hear a great deal of..discugsion about liberal thought and progressive action,” he concluded, “It is well for the country to have liberality in thought and progress in action, but its greatest asset is common sense. In the com- monplace things of life lies the strength of the nation. It is not in brilliant conceptions and strokes of genius that we shall find the chief reliance of our country, but in the home, in the school and in religion. America will continue . to defend these shrines. Every evil force that seeks to desecrate or destroy them will find that a higher power has endowed the people with an inher- ent spirit of resistance. The peo- ple know the difference pretense and reality. They want to be told the truth. They want to be trusted. They want a chance to work out their own. material and spiritual salvation. The people want overnment -of. common sense, hese are some -of the. beliefs which I hold, some of the principles which I propose to support.

D., Aug. 15.—A worn pair of knickers fwas among the clues in a Packard; automobile, stol- en from the Rev. Father John Baker, ‘at Valley City and found, wrecked, a mile west of New Rockford, accord- ing to a long distance message from D. W. Simon, deputy sheriff of Eddy county. Clothing store stock including 150 of all kinds of shirts and 10 or 12 sheep lined coats, first led to the belief that the thieves who took the | priest’s car at Valley City were the same who Tuesday night robbed the |C, A. Swanson store here. A call jto Fred Kraemer, Cass sheriff, how- ever disclosed that the brands of the clothes found did not corres- pond with any of the Swansen store, Mr. Kraemer said. It was not known at New Rock- ford where the clothes cauld have been taken. The car was badly damaged, the two front wheels having been knock- ed off as it hit the ditch. There was no trace of the drivers. It is be- lieved the accident occurred some time during the night. : The knickers, along with a man’s overcoat which had been worn were wrapped in a plaid shawl such as aquaws wear, according to Mr. Si- mon. The shirts found in the car were of the Lindicke-Warner brand.

It is an act which became effective in January, 1855, and provided heavy penalties for employes of railroads found guilty of being intoxicated while in the performance of their duty, : At the time of its enactment there were no railroads in Florida. The agt, however, imposed upon the gen- eral assembly the duty of ascertain- ing the proper objects of improve- ,ments in relation to railroads, -canals, and navigable streams; and indicates the presentiment the lawmakers must ’ have had that liquor and locomotive combined would not make for public’ ~ safety. ..
