PAGE TWO INSURGENT NOT PLEASED WITH LATE MESSAGE Coolidge Careful Not to Offend Big Busi- ness, Is Claim. MADISON, Wis., Dec. 14.—Presi dent Coolidge’s” first message to congress was declared to be an “able, concise and frank presenta- tion of the standpat, reactionary theory of government,” in a state- ment by United States Senator Robert M. LaFollette, made public here today. There js nothing in the message that will offend the “most sensitive of the big business interests.” the statement said. “If it be courageous to champion the interests of the raflroads, the profiteers, the coal magnates and our other overlords against the mass of the people,” Senator LaFol- lette declared, “then in all fairness it must be conceded that the pres! dent has earned the tributes to his courage s0 warmly accorded him by many of the newspapers of the country. “There is Uttle in the message that will satisfy the mass of the American people.” Mr. LaFollette stated that the president's recommendations in re spect to agriculture, in effect, “tells the farmer to help himself and to pull himself out of the difficulties into which the ‘deflation’ policy, the Esch-Cummins law and other acts of the federal government have thrown him.” “The president has elected to cast his lot with the reactionaries of his own party who have been re- pudiated by the country and to pro- mote the welfare of those predatory splints which have thrived for a generation upon favors and sub- sidies exacted from the federal gov- nment,” Senator LaFollette con- cluded. 5 YOUNG MAN {3 HELO FOR APE B.
