President Coolidge was highly pleased with the quiet and rest of the six days he spent at his: father's , and the Northampton. With but one exception, when Secre- tary Mellon and Senator Smoot came to discuss terms for refunding the Bel- | glum debt, the President had a real vacation. he was fres from the cares of his high office, or as nearly so as it is possible for any Chief Magistrate to be. But upon his return he lost no time reflecting upon what a good time and fine rest he had, but immediately entered upon the business of his office. After his arrival at White Court last night, Mr. Coolidge studied a number of business papers which had been brought to him from the executive of- fice in Lynn, and today he entered upon what is unquestionably the {busiest week end he has had since leaving Washington. The President was up and about early this morning and appeared eager to get back to work. New Reaches White Court. He took a short walk which car- ried him to the rocks at the water's edge in front of White Court, and occupled himself with the huge bundle of papers on his desk, up until the time Postmaster General New ar- rived, which was shortly after 10 o'clock. The latter reached Boston on the Federal Express at 9 o’'clock and was driven to White Court in one of the President’s automobiles. In response to greetings early this morning the President replied that both he and Mrs. Coolidge felt no ill effects from thelr long motor ride yesterday and the day before. Practically the entire 140-mile ride yesterday was in a cold, drizzling rain and only one stop was made, that being at the Summer home of Robert B. Choate at Southboro, a suburb of Boston. It was raining hard when the time arrived for the presidential party to leave Northampton and it was thought at first that the Pres- ident would postpone his departure because of the weather. But he was ready quite a few minutes ahead of schedule and walked up and down the little porch of his Massasoit street home, every moment or so pulling out his watch. The leaving was made without any special demonstration on the part of the populace. A number the acighbors were cither upon .l to_retur - 1 Trudge. a first-class m D. O, SATURDAY, AUGUST 22, 1925.

Wadsworth Sees Coolidge on Legis- Iative Program. By the Associated Press SWAMPSCOTT, Mass., August 22.— Tax reduction and reorganization of the executive departments were pro- posed today to President Coolidge by Senator Wadsworth, Republican, of New York as two of the major prob- lems to be pressed at the next Con- gress by the administration. Senator Wadsworth predicted that a tax bill providing reductions in both the surtax and normal income rates would be passed before March 15, { when first payments of the new year are due. He advocated that the ad- ministration then put through its plan of reorganization, which provides for a new department of education and relfef. Although some opposition has been voiced to provisions of the reorgani- zation bill he was confident it could be passed in much the same form as proposed to the last Congress. The chief benefit ‘of such a bill would be the simplification of the Government work and elimination of duplication, thus saving, in bis opinion, money to the taxpayers directly and indirectly. Senator Wadsworth believes the in- come rate could be cut down to a maximum of 25 per cent, including a surtax of 20 per cent with a normal rate of §.per cent. He is willing to go below this figure if Treasury con- ditions warrant. As chairman of the military affairs committee, Senator Wadsworth pro- tested against the proposed reduction in appropriations for the War and Navy departments, now under con- sideration by the Budget Bureau. He declared any cut would impair the efficiency of the national defense. He did not discuss this question, however, with the President. He was optimistic of political conditions in New York and expressed the opinion. Republi- cans would make some gains in New York ity in the next eolection. —- FOR BIBLE TEACHING| Calls Klonklave of 250,000 to Start | ave | @ to bar it.

The di- rector of traffic understands this, be- cause Jhe and the assistant director have made extended trips to study the general situation. Few Arteries Likely. “The question of boulevards prob- ably will narrow itself down to thees- tablishment of six or eight main arteries. It may be that no streets should be considered boulevards in the more congested section of the city, this morning at South Capitel and ¥ no change, to change feared the man in answer to a request $5 Dbill. Eagle said he itended to rob him since high speed there may not be advisable. “Too many boulevards are objec- tionable particularly to users of trucks, as the stopping and starting of a heavy vehicle is an expensive propo- sition. Slowing down to four miles an hour upon approaching a boule vard would ease the situation consid- erably if it is possible to enforce such a regulation. “It may be that we have too many regulations at present, but it may be that we simply are not used to the regulations necessary to control traf- fic in a big city. Tt is probable the director of traffic will have to experi- ment before he is sure of what is best. The immense increase in the number of vehicles during the last three or four years has brought a roblem that will require much studv fore the solution is reached. Must Be Co-operation. “I believe that Washington is at last equipped with the means for solv- ing this problem and that we motorists and we pedestrians should enter into the spirit of this new game and try everything that we are asked to tryv. Tt is only in this way that we will get what we all want—salsfactory traffic conditions.” The concensus among traffic ex- perts, who have made a study of traf. fic conditions in other cities as well as in the District of Columbia, is that the code here is developing probably too fast. It is this phase of the pr Jem, they believe, which has given the average motorist an impression of regulations, regulations and more reg- ulations.
