PRESIDENT BEGINS WEEK OF HARD WORK Tax Reduction Bill and Campaign Problems in Pile on Execu- tive's Desk. RIVER CRUISE BENEFICIAL Mrs. Coolidge Goes to Mgrcersburg, Pa., for Son’s Graduation. When President Coolidge opened up his office for business today he faced what many of those close to him consider will be one of the hard- est und busiest weeks he has had since becoming President nearly a year ago. Most important of the problems be- fore the Executive is the tax reduc- tion bill, which ig far removed from the administration's tax reduction plan, but which he must act upon one way or another before midnight Fri- Besldes this he is facing a of eleventh-hour legisia- is being passed with the toward an adjournment Satur- ¢ endeavor on the part of in the House and Senate to s session in time for the mem- s to attend the Cleveland conven- tion will natufally call for an in- creased number of congressional call- ers and conferences at the White House during the week. Faces Campalgn Problems. The President's task this week, ho: ever, is not going to end that easily He must make several important de- cisions relating to his campaign and the fortunes of the party and he must also confer with Seccretary of State Hughes regarding the nature of the reply to the note fram the Japanese government protesting asgainst the immigration law excluding Japanese. Mr. Coolidge is physically very fit for the week's rush. His week end cruise on the presidential yacht May- flower proyed not only enjoyable, but furnished a rest and change of air that seem to have greatly benefited the Executive. He was accompanied by Mrs. Coolidge and Mrs. Frank W. Stearns of Boston, a house guest. The vessel did not go as far as Chesapeake Bay as originally intended, but drop- ped anchor Saturday night about sixty miles south of Washington. The party remained at anchor until 10 o'clock yesterday morning when the journey home was started. The May- flower docked at its navy yard moor- ings at 8 o'clock last night. Moxt of Time Spent at Rest. The President devoted practically all of his time aboard the ship to Test. He took along some papers, among them being the tax reduetion bill, but his reading of these was only casual. President’ Coolidge had planned to motor with Mrs. Coolidge today to Mercersburg, Pa., to be on hand for the graduation from _Mercersburg Academy Wednesday of John, elder of the two Coolldge boy# The pressure of busigess, however, caused ndon this idea. Mrs. Cool- . made the {rip alone. Commander Joel T. Boone, medical officer of the Mayflower and one of the White House physicians, & graduate of this institution, in whose honor a pieture is to be unveiled to- morrow, accompanied by Maj. Gen. John Lejeune, commandant of ma- rines, left for Mercersburg today. SEAPLANE RUSHES STAR. Drops Newspapers on Mayflower Deck for Coolidge.

COURT CITES RENT BODY IN APARTMENT SUIT Must Show Cause Friday Why Fix- ing of Rentals Should Not Be Enjoined. Justice Stafford of the District Su- preme Court today issued a rule against the members of the District Fent Commission to show cause Fri- day why they should not be enjoined from proceeding to fix rentals of the Garfield apartments at 901 13th street. The rule was issued following a pet| tion filed by the Fidelity Savings Com- pany, owner of the property, the ground floor of which the company occupies. Through Attorney George Curtis Shinn, the claim is made that I Joint resolution of Congress extending the life of the Rent Commission is il- legal, and was predicated on investiga- tions of econgressional committees, which afforded no opportunities to property owners to be heard in e matter. Tenants of the company flled complaints back in 1922, and a hearing was held last February and the prop- erty viewed by the commission in March. the court is told, and is about to render a determination as to the rentals. Mr. Shinn denies there exists any emergency due to shortage in the number of houses. # ARMOUR & Company ) has spent no less than $3,500,000 on its Ar- gentine plant alone.
