TWO STORES W MACNIDER ASKS SUPPORT OF PRESIDENT’S POLICIES Urges Election of Legislative Bodies Which Will Help Out His Common Sense Demands. By the Assoclated Press. CLEVELAND, Ohio, October 20.— So satisfactory an interpreter of the national mind is President Coolidge that the man in the street finds action on _any matter, “That fis Just what I would have done,” Han- ford MacNider, Assistant Secre- tary of War, declared last night in a campaign -address. MacNider pleaded for election in November of legislative bodies *“which will enable him to carry out America’s very defl- nite commands.” “What is this gift that Calvin Cool- idge possesses?” he asked. “‘Just plain, everyday, American common sense. He can be your Executive only as long as the enabling legislative bodies are of sim; character and mind. That is only common sense of the same brand we all admire in everything Calvin Coolidge does. “We have a Chief Executive who has proved his ability to serve us ithout waste of money, time or talk. Let's give him a Congress which will help him deliver.” . SEES GOOD FARM YEAR. Manufacturers’ Head Declares 1927 Will Be Prosperous.

By the Associated Press. MEXICO CITY, October 20.—The power and political influence of union labor in Mexico City, the stronghold of the Regional Confederation of Mexican Workers, the dominant labor organization in Mexico, may be pitted soon against the Mexican Supreme Court to determine whether organized labor or the Supreme Court is the final authority in the constantly pre- vailing strikes and disputes in this country between employers and em- ployes. The confederation plans a great demonstration parade in Mexico City to back up its demand that the Su- preme Court dismiss District Court Judge Couto, who in several cases has granted injunctions sought by em- plovers declaring illegal certaln local strikes. The date for the demonstra- tion has not been fixed. Secretary General Medina of the confederation declares that if the demonstration does not bring about the dismissal of this judge, to whom labor objects, the organization will then consider cailing a general strike in this city for the purpose of forcing dismissal. Strikes of one kind or another are almost always under way here. “Workmen's conciliation and arbitra- tion boards,” which the employers re- gard as labor controlled, make the decisions in such labor disputes. These decisions are usually against the employers, who in some cases have gone into the courts seeking injunc- tions to prevent the strikers from closing their places of business, t’elvet-Trimmed PETTIE FRoCKS w 515 —are commanding unusual at- tention.
