Jardine Expresses Surprise. HOLLAND, Mich., August 4 (P).— Secretary of Agriculture Jardine, dis- cussing the announcement of Presi- dent Coolidge that he would not choose to run for President in 1928, expressed great surprise. “I regret the President's decision keenly,” he said. m my view- point, the country needs four more years of Coolidge policies. He richly deserves the confidence which the country has in him and it were best for America that he should continue at the presidential helm.” BELIEVES COOLIDGE WOULD RUN Former Nebraska Governor Also Thinks He Will Be Nominated. LINCOLN, Nebr., August 4 (®).— Just returned from his Summer home in the Black Hills, where he was the recent guest of President Coolidge, and the President in turn his guest on a fishing trip, former Gov. Sam R. Me- Kelvie of Nebraska expressed surprise yesterday afternoon at the announce- ment stating he would not be a can- didate for re-election. “I had no intimation of the Presi- dent’s intention,” Mr. McKelvie is quoted as saying, “and I believe he consulted no one, but made his de- cision unaided, as he is accustomed to doing. 1 am sure it was never dis- cussed at Rapid City. Though I am surprised I believe, however, that Mr. Coolidge will be nominated without any action on his part and that he will accept the nomination if ten- dered.” “LEAVES MATTER OPEN.” Gov. Weeks Describes Coolidge Act as “Commendable.” MONTPELIER, Vt., August 4 (#).— Gov. John E. Weeks in a statement last night said that “by his recent utterance Calvin Coolidge makes it definitely known that he does not seek another term. “His very words,” the governor added, “wise and helpful as they are, indicate his commendable attitude to- ward public service, The President does not say that he will refuse a nomination. He clearly and positi leaves the matter open for a free ex-| pression of the will of the people. —_—— MusIC IN POLITICS. Premier Baldwin’s Wife Head of| Conservative Union.
