AT CAMPAIG of the Repnblican nationa committee w i TND 1 1 b is 'Peace, Econnmy, Cut in Taxes, Farm Aid, Pledged by Coolidge Possession People’ Maintenance of Court of Propofly and * Integrity Also Stressed at Commerce Chamber President Coolidge set forth last, night policies of administration under | which he purposes that the Govern- ment will “maintain peace, promote economy, provide a protective tariff, assist the farmers, leave the people in posses: n of. their propert and maintain the integrity of the courts.” In the last extended address he ex- pects to make before election and the most comprehensive he has delivered since his speech of acceptance of the Republican nomination, the President declared his stand on practically every phase of government affairs. He discussed campaign issues, in some instances for the first time. Mr. Coolidge spoke before the Eastern divizion of the Chamber of Commerce of the United States, meet- ing here in the chamber’s new build- ing, and the address was carried by | radio to almost every section of the | country- i Hits Public Ownership. 1 Summarizing the administration's program, which he said had *brought an era of more than average DPros- perity,” the President called atten- tion that despit the “natural sup- position that every well wisher of the country would be anxious to main- tain the present established order of things,” there are now proposed “at least two of the most revolutionary changes"—Government ownership of transportation and limitation of the powers of the Supreme Court. Tublic ownership_he described as a “most perilous undertaking. both to the welfare of business and the inde- pendence of the peoble” If powers of the Supreme Court were limited as proposed, he said, “the historian would close the chapter with the comment that the people had shown they were incapable of self-govern- had proved a failure.” Sces Tax Reduction. Mr. Coolidge said further reduction in Federg! taxes was possible on the basis of the estimated Government budget for next year, and he outlined as his “commo: inethod of tax- etting all we can out of the rich | by making the rates .moderate and | stimulating business to provide work and increase the earnings of the poor.” In foreign affalrs the President promised co-operation in the interest of peace; declared for constitutional covenants outlawing aggressive war- fare, and reafirmed his proposal for adherence to the Permanent Court of International Justice. He announced opposition, however, to participation by this Government in international conferences discussing questions of “purely our own domestic affairs"; to the cancellation of war debts owed this natien, and to the entrance of the United States into the League of Nations. No other “sound and practical” pol- icy In foreign affairs has been pre- sented, Mr. Coolidge declared, adding (hat “we have been willlng to assume the responsibllity for leading the Na- tion and the world in this direction, without first seeking through a cost- ly, futile and unconstitutional refer- endum to find out whether it would be popular.” In agriculture, the Prestdent sald he was ready to open the investiga- tion into farming conditions he had proposed as a means of determining legislative program of ald.

Itshas its headquarters at ‘Washington, in order that it may the better co-operate with the Govern- ment for the purpose of securing the results desired. It is my purpose to lay before vou briefly some of the policies pursued by the present Gov- ernment, which tend to contribute to that end. Tt is my opinfon that a true economic development of our coun- try can. only rest upon the broad foundation of ministering to human welfare. It can only be promoted through honor and justice. It must contribute to peace abroad, and must be supported by security dust economy, charity, education and re- ligious convictions at home. It cannot thrive upon sectionalism or privilege, but must take into consideration all quarters of the land and all the ele- ments of society. It must provide not only quantity in production, but equality in distribution. And finally, it must nourish that most precious product of all human activity, which we designate as character. “I am in favor of all the arts of peace, but 1 cannot be oblivious to the fact that the most miserable fail- ure which a government can_inflict upon the people Is a lack of order and security. LUnless a government be strong enough to maintain publi confidence in the observance of the orderly processes of law we not only have no economic development, but an immediate cessation of all enter- prise and a substantial destruction of all values. There have been wide stretches of territory and entire na- tions in some parts of the earth bless- ed with the richest of natural re- sources that have never been able to make any financial progress, be- cause in them there has been no accumulation or investment of capi- tal, since there was no safety to rely on for life or property.

But we have not refused to help, we have not re- fused to co-operate, we have not re- fused to act, whenever circumstances have arisen under which we could render assistance. “An outstanding example of such action on our part is the treates! which resulted from the epoch-ma fng Washington conference. Another ts our participation in the London conferences, which resulted in the adoption of the Dawes plan, for the financing of which our private citi- zens subscribed many times over the amount necessary to float the Ger-| man loan. All these acts have been practical, effective methods for the restoration of liurope. We propose adherence to the Permanent Court of International Justice, under any de. sired conditions or limitations which | may seem practical and which it can reasonably be anticipated would be | agreed to by other interested nations.

Personally, 1 view with favor the at- tempt to devise constitutional cove- |nants which would look to the out- llawing of aggressive war.

We have been willing to assume the responsibility of leading the Nation and the world in this di- rection, without first seeking through a costly, futile and unconstitutional referendum, to find out whether it would be popular.
