PRESIDENT LIKEL TOTAKE VACATION Two Weeks’ Stay at Ply- mouth, Vt., With Wife and i Son Believed Considered. . Those close to President Coolidge are of the opinion that shortly after he makes his acceptance Speech next Thursday he will leave Washington for a brief vacation. he and Mrs_ Coolidge and their son will o to Plymouth, Vi, and spend @ fortnight with the President’s father #t the old Coolidge homestead In that picturesque village. This. however, is not definite. Fre- quently during 'the present summer President Coolidge has answered in- quiries about his going away by say- ing that he and Mrs. Coolidge found the Washington summer climate and the White House and grounds to their liking, and that he would re- main here, except possibly for a_very short trip late in the summer. There have been many who have gone to the President during the present hot spell ‘and urged him to change his mind. They endeavored to convince him that his health and that of his family required that they seek a cooler climate, if for only a week or s0. The change would be beneficial, they also argued.

White House officials today stated that the matter will be settled within the next day or so. They expect the Tresident to say then whether he is going away for a vacation and where Be intends to go.

Justice Hitz of the District Supreme Court, has named Francis G. Addison, Jr. vice president of the Sécurity Savings and Commercial Bank; Jo- seph T. Sherier, lawyer, and Warren L. Lee, former Representative in Con- gress from New York, as receivers of the local assets of the Commonwealth Finance Corporation of Delaware. The bond of the receivers was fixed at $50.000, Suit was fileq against the company and a number of its present and for- mer directors, in which 1t is charged by David S. Levy, a stockholder of New York, that assets of the com- pany worth $7,500.000 had been dis- sipated since January, 1921. George Edwin Josephs of the New York bar pleaded with Justice Hitz to delay the appointment of receivers until a for- mal answer could be filed, in which would be set out the present status of the company's affairs and the efforts being made by the lawyer, assisted by Attorneys Darr. Whiteford & Darr, to refinance the concern. Mr. Josephs claimed the assets were prin- cipally in the District of Columbla, and consisted of equities in a num- ber of large apartments, hotels and office buildings, which he considered valuable. Attorney Robert H. McNelll, Tepre- senting Mr. Levy, and lawyers from New York appearing for other stock- holders, insisted on the receivership declaring the existence of an emer- gency in the company’s aftairs calling for immediate action by the court.

In an effort to put a stop to speed- ing and reckless driving in Wash- ington, Commissioner Oyster an- nounced today that a special squad of 20 motor cycle policemen in civilian clothes has been organized. Although this squad has been at work since August 2, they have car- ried on their campaign quietly with no intimation of their activity until today. The plan is to have 20 miotor cycle men go on duty every other day in clvilian attire, working the in-be- tween days in uniform. Figures ob- tained from Maj. Sullivan today show that nearly twice as many arrests for speeding have been made on the days when the men were not in police uniform. The record follows: With the men in civilion clothes, August 2, 61 arrests; August 4, 74 ar- rests; Auzust 6, 69. With the motor cycle men In uni- form—August 3, 36 arrests; August 5, 48 arrests, and August 7, 48. Commissioner Oyster indicated that the reason which prompted the adop- tion of this plan was a belief that some drivers comply with the speed limit when they see an officer in uniform, but will step on the gas if one is not in sight. Following out this line, it was decided to put some of the men in civilian clothes, so that the motorist who takes a chance when he thinks he is not being fol- lowed would be unable to tell whether | || or not an officer was nearby. Capt. Oyster expressed the belief that fast driving is responsible for many accidents and that the motor cycle squad will make every effort to force compliance With the apeed limit, Traveling Bags $2.9 18-inch Durable Fabrikoid Bags, with strong lock and two drop clasps.
