Reduction of husking re- turns as compared to what were looked for was again attracting notice, and so, too, was persistent smallness of receipts here. , 1 MILL CITY MARKET + SLOW AND DRAGGY Minneapolis, Nov. 18.—(AP)— ey cables, quieter export de- mand and lack of punch in the news resulted in a slow, draggy wheat market today. Wheat met support, however, after a small decline and early in the last hour showed good recovery from early depression. ‘Trade was narrow. Oats were quiet and firm. Rye continued to decline, breaking 1 1-2 to 1 3-4 cents on quieter export demand and profit taking. Barley sagged 1 1-4 cents for December. Cash wheat was steady and quiet, receipts being small and buyers in- disposed to compete for the small supplies. Trading basis on the whole was steady. Winter wheat was steady with offerings skimpy.

Veterans Hospital - Construction Urged in Resolutions}! (Continued from page one) with their service and is trying to dispel this idea. The government has a contract with a hospital at. Fargo whereby veterans receiving compensation can be treated but only for emerg- ency ailments, Mr. Kraabel said. For treatment of chronic and ordi- nary disease they are sent to gov- ernment hospitals in other states, The need for hospital facilities in this state will continue for years, Mr. Kraabel said. since statistics show that the peak of the hospital load after the Civil War was reached 40 years after the cessation of hos- tilities. : America on Threshold of New Era, Says Coolidge in Talk (Continued from page one) our line of national defense,” he said. “It is the largest obstacle in the path of our economic develop- ment. It should be retired as fast as possible under a system of rea- sonable taxation. This can be done only by continuing the policy of rigid goverment economy.” Government Can Help Throughout his discussion of America’s position to other nations, the president referred to the promo- tion of peace as a great treasure. Especially, he said this government could be helpful in bring about a closer union with the republics of the western hemisphere by aiding inancially in constructing in- nal highways and in open- ing l’ 8 of aviation. “We have been drawn ii.to close relationship with other nations,” Mr. Coolidge said. x x x “We are more conce ned than ever with our foreign affairs.

This represents a volume of production and trade far in excess of that which any other country — ever reache, It is the zeni‘h of our prosperity. All of this should be considered in any eae of the worth of our long-established policy.” Under the theory that more can be accomplished through govern: ment encouragement of private ini- tiative, Mr. Coolidge added, “We have sought to establish a system under which the people would con- trol the government, and not the government control the poeple.” ‘If economic freedom vanishes,” he said, “political freedom becomes nothing but a shadow. It has, there- fore, been our wish that the people} of the country should own and con-| duct all gainful occupations not di- rectly connected with government service. When the government once enters a business it must occupy the field alone. No one can compete with it. The result is a paralyzing monefoly.” Prosperity Brings Real Test The presidént declared that the economic results which have accrued to the American people b¥ placing reliance in he initiative and free- dom of the individual “is the very antithesis of communism but it has people to a position beyond even the promises of the. extremists.” xxx “We have demonstrated that we were able to mect adversity and overcome it. The test which now confronts the nation is pros- perity. There is nothing more likely to reveal the soul of a peo- ple. History is littered with stor- ies of netions destroyed by their own wealth, It is true that we have tional law have required it we have extended our help to those who were attempti-7 to secure these results. But we have refrained from med- dlesome interfercnce, . because we recogniz~ not only the righ, but the necessity for each people to work out their own destiny.” Government Ownership Opposed Declaring that the prefent posi- tion of the United States has been attained not by accident, tut by fol- lowing a carefully thought out policy, Mr. Coolidge held that two of the basic reasons for the na- tion’s development have been op- position to the principle of govern- ment ownership and maintenance of a protective tariff. He contended accumulated a small but a blatant fringe of extravagance and waste, nourished in idleness, and another desiravle class who seek to live without work. A successful people are always a mark for the vicious and the criminal. But these are conspicuous mainly by contrast. The great mass of our people, whatever their posséssions, are con- scientious :nd industrious, seeking to s:rve humanity. They know that the doctrine of case is the doctrine of surrender and decay.
