President Coolidge lauded the American home “as the source of our national well being,” in an address opening “Better Homes Week," broadcast last night from the White House by Station WCAP. The President, no newcomer to the microphone, his voice having been heard several times before through the either, said: “The American home is the source of our national well being. In it our high traditions of service and in- tegrity are fostered. I'rom the truoe home there emerges respect for the rights of others and the habit of co- operating for worthy ends. Through sharing its common enterprises and common sacrifices. the child develops that sturdiness of character which distinguishes the manhood and wom- anhood of our land. “In recent years, the remarkable development of our material re- sources, of human invention and of human ‘opportunity, have turned the attention of many from the home to other fields of engrossing interest. 1t has been necessary to recall public attention to the home lest its influ- ence and its finer values be impaired. 1 have therefore been well pleased to note the founding of the movement for better homes in America under the inspiring leadership of Mrs. Wil- liam Brown Meloney, and have been happy to serve us chairman of jts advisory council. " The reorganization and program of the movement 1 have followed with deep interest, realiz- ing the significax to the nation of T ent to strength- en and improve the home Gladly Alds Movement. “Thus, at the opening of Better Homes week, 1 am glad to call at- tention to the demonstrations planned with such lovalty and disinterested zeal by the better home mmittees and to commend as a na- tional service the co-operation of the women's clubs, civic and commercial associations and of the pulpit and the press in this significant undertaking. Such initiative, enterprise and devo- tion should profoundly influence the home life of America, and should make firm the high ideals which characterize our nation.” “Better Homes week” is being ob- 11 to 18. Those sponsoring the move- ment declare that the better homes” mean more than better homes —"it means better bus health, better children, better men and women, better cities, and a bet- ter nation,” it is declared. President Coolidge is_chairman of the advisory council of Better Homcs in_America. “The character of a people is largely affected by the homes which they dwell,” writes Her Hoover, Secretary of Commerce, president of Better Homes America. “The profoundest i fluences of early childhood are thos of the family circle. The warmest memories of later years center in the home. It is the environment of most of the deepest experiences of human life. The highest civiliza- tions have been built uot by noma peoples, but by nations in which the mass_of the population are home- owners and home-lovers.” “Better Homes, Better Men.” “Civilization is known by _the homes its people live in.” states Sec- retary James J ievements eflected in the permanence of architecture and convenience of the habitations they left behind and are told in stories of home and fireside, for civilization ig built by man as a means for more happily spending the short vears of his life. Mere houses are not homes, oun up fully refreshed. o St. Louis, Mo.
