This concerned employment systems maintained rious governments, into which Miss Stewart was inquiring on behalf of the Department of Labor, with which the United States Em- ployment Service is affiliated.

His first trip of this kind will be to Belle Fourche, about one hundred miles north of the Summer White House, where a rodeo will be held next month. He has accepted an invitation to visit Deadwood the following month, and it is expected that other engage- ments of this nature will shortly be annonuced. He has made it clear to those, who have been discussing these trips with him, that wherever he visits he wants to go merely as a neighbor and a spectator and not as “the orator of the day.” He has no in- tention of making any addresses. The President, since leaving Wash- ington, has demonstrated that he wants to get closer to the people of the West—to better know the dirt farmers and stock raisers. Th» basis for this belief was his oft-repeated question to the crowds at the railroad stations during his journey through South Dakota of “How are crops?” Discusses Farmn Relief. The farm relicf subject was broached to him for the first time since arriv- ing in the Black Hills yesterday after- noon by State Senator J. L. Robbins of this city, who owns and operates a large ranch. It was he who intro- duced the resolution in the State Sen- ate inviting the President to spend the Summer in the Black Hills as a guest of the State, During his talk with the President Senator Robbins took occasion to con- gratulate him on his veto of the McNary-Haugen bill last Winter, which legislation had the militant sup- port of the South Dakota deleg: in Congress. According to the Sena- tor’s report of the interview, he told the President that he had been rancker for many years, to which the President quickly ~replied that that was all the more rezson why the ator should be thankful the McNary- Havgen bill did not become a law. Senator Robbins, while discussing the farm reiief subject, stated that the agriculturists in this section will not find their way out of their difliculties through legiglation. He believes the tariff on products of Kastern indus- tries should be reduced. The Fresi- dent's ideas regarding co-operative marketing meet with his approval. Welcomes Discussions. Instead of avoiding discussions of this nature while he is out here, to all intents and purposes, on a vaca- tion, Mr. Coolidge has made it plain that he welcomes them. Further evi- dence of his intention to keep in close touch with all that is going on and to seek advice rej ng the major problems of the Nation, was the P announcement to callers that he expects to have representatives of different in- sts, principally industrial, agricul- I, financial _and_commercial, con- FOR SALE To Close An {state | Apt. 402 The Netherlands (Co-Operative) Rooms, Recp.

Besides these conferences he will have members of his cabinet come to visit him, as well as political lead- ers, diplomats and personal friends, in whose judgment he has great con fidence.
