I By the Associated Press. | Describing the inauguration of President Coolidge as “nothing but & display of uniforms, machine guns and all the accessories of war,” ‘ Representative Kvale, Farmer-La- ‘or, Minnesota, made an appeal in the House to President-elect Hoover o make his inaugural ceremonies typify peace. It Hoover approves of an inaugu- ral “as disgraceful as the one we witnessed in 1925,” the Minnesotan declared he would request the Pres- .ident-elect to withdraw from the ‘Quaker Church. He added that Hoo- _ver should make his inaugural as “*not a messenger of war, but a /messenger of peace.” He declared his remarks were prompted by newspaper accounts to the effect that President-elect Hoo- ver had expressed a desire for an inaugural modeled after the pro- gram of four years ago. “Those of you who witnessed the jnauguration parade in 1925, the Minnesota member asserted, “will agree with me that it might well have been a war parade back in 1914 under Kaiser Wilhelm or the Prench militarists instead of a pa- rade celberating the inauguration of Let Yours Be Musical Christmas Inspiring C‘hlfistmas Songs and Carols recorded by Eminent 'Artists and Musical Organizations are reproduced with life-like fidelity on the ORTHOPHONIC VICTROLA Vocal—Chorus—Instrumental—21 Double-Face Records Victrola, with all the realism for which Orthophonic reproduction is noted.
