LORD ROBERT CECIL PAYS WILSON HONOR Tribute was paid Woodrow Wilson yesterday by the man most closely associated with him in drafting the covenant of the League of Natlons dnd the man who has recently re- - | ceived the first award of the Wood- row Wilson Foundation. Lord Robert Cecil, Viscount Cecil of - [Chelwood, visited the Bethelhem Chapel of the Washington Cathedral | yesterday and laid a wreath on the tomb of America's war-time Presi- dent. Accompanied only by Sir Esme the British Ambassador, hop James E. Freeman of the iscopal Diocese of Washington, and Dean G. C. F. Bratenahl of the ca- f|thedral, Lord Robert Cecil entered the little chapel beneath which rest the mortal remains of Woodrow Wil- son, paused a moment in sllent medi- tation and pleaced a wreath on_the | simple slab marked “Woodrow Wil- son.” The little group of devotees stood a few moments with heads bowed in silent prayer and then turned away, Lord Robert Cecil betraying the memorles that overcome him as he looked at the slab marking the rest- ing place of the great national lead- er with whom he worked so closely toward the goal of international peace The British statesman went to the chapel after he had been received by President Coolldge during the Pres- ident's New Year reception at the White House. Sunday night in New York Lord Robert Cecil was the recipient of the first award of the Woodrow Wilson Foundation, carrying with it a cash award of $25,000. With this went the Woodrow Wilson medal. The award was conferred on Lord Robert Cecil for meritorious and outstanding serv- ices toward the goal of world peace and was given on the anniversary of the birth of Woodrow Wilson. | B truly exceptional in that all woolens are price over last year.

Indeed, the story produces a conviction that he is about to educate Congress into being “afraid” of him.

That body seldom knew “Coolldge policies” tiil their author was ready for thelr public promulgation. Mr. Coolidge has pretty consistently fol- lowed that practice since he became President. Of one thing there is a fair certainty. He will not go in for rainbow-chasing. He will not cru- sade for the mere purpose of crusad- ing. He alms to make the presi- dency he now holds in his own right notable for things done rather than for projects contemplated, but un- attainable. BY FREDERIC WILLIAM WILE. One of the 1925 political prognosti- cations made in Washington with al- most universal assurance is that Calvin Coolidge will strike out on clear-cut lines of his own before the year is very old. Men who have had regular, or even occasional, con- tact with the President during the past two months have discerned a different Coolidge. i They say it is not “a new Coolidge, but the old Coolidge who has visibl adjusted himseslf to a new environ-" ment. That environment is the at- mosphere of complete self-confidence in which the President finds himself, as the result of his Immense victory on November 4. Nearly everybody who meets Mn Coolidge nowadays comes away strongly impressed by his altered bearing. He comports himself like a man who is conscious of new powers and is inclined to use them. ¥a; Exactly that policy, which is fun- damnetal with Calvin Coolldge, ap- plies to the proposal just made by Senator Borah for an International economic and disarmament confer- ence. The President s just as per- suaded of the necessity of world agreement on those subjects as the more temperamental chairman of the Senate forelgn relatjons committee is. On the desirability of such a confer- ence Coolidge and Borah see eye to eye. They do not see eye to eye on the feasibility of such a conference at this time. For one thing. the President wants to glve the Dawes plan a chance to demonstrate its effectiveness in Eu- For another, he prefers to result of the League of protocol” scheme for a dis- arbitration and security ear before breaking rs World Couference. Capitol Hill Impressed. Some of the politicians who ob- serve the different Coolidge expect him to become a big-stick wielder.

FRIDAY, across the path of that project With a purely American scheme. One of the safest forecasts of Cool- idge leadership after March 4, 1925, 1s that he will bend himself with re- lentless energy in the direction of economy, and more and more econo- my, all along the Federal line. The President knows in his own mind that the economy lIssue, probably more than any other, gave him his colossal majority two months ago. When Texas Democrats will confess, as some of them to the knowledge of this writer do confess, that they voted for Calvin Cooli¢ge because of his vetoes of the Bursum pension bill, the bonus bill and the postal pay bill, {t's a fair indication of why the Coolidge plurality was roundly 7,600,000,000 votes. ‘Wants Economy Record. The President means to live up to the economy issue to the end of his term. If his administration can be stamped as the record money-saving administration of the era, Calvin Coolidge will consider that as honor- able a niche fn fame as if he had led the Republic triumphantly in an- other great war. The fear of Calvin Coolidge has unquestionably been put into the soul of every statesman on Capitol Hill on the economy propo- sition. A grabster or a pork-barrel devotes is conscious that expediture of public funds must bear prima facle evidence of justification nowadays, to get by the thrifty Vermonter who now 15 chief watchdog of the Treas- ury.
