Washington, Dec. 6.—A legislative program touching almost every aspect of national life was presented by President Coolidge v in his first message to congress, endorsed President’s Harding’s proposal for American “hip with reservations in the world court: unqualifiedly d Secretary Mello tax reduction plan, and announced osition to enactment of soldier bonus legislation. ~ He also went on record as favoring stimulated consolidation of railroads, reorganization of the railroad freight structure as applied to farm products; and government assistance in the dis- position of exportable wheat. He declared against price-fixing for farm products; against repeal of the rate section of the Transportation Act; and against revision of the tariff law, | 4 f Opposes Soldier Bonus ! .\lnk!ng‘ his first pronouncement on many public questions, {the president presented a series of suceinct recommendations without attempt at argument. He used exactly nine words in dis~ posing of the bonus question. After urging adequate care for disabled former service men and generosity in providing such | care, he said: “I do not favor the granting of a bonus.” The treatment of the world court and the Mellon tax plan was almost as brief. In approaching the court problem he noted that American foreign policy always had been guided by the principles of avoidance of permanent political alliances suci’ificing independence and of peaceful settlement of international con- | troversies. He called attention that the United States acting on thoff principles had for nearly twenty-five years been a member of The Hague Tribunal and added that the proposed world court | was “a new and somewhat different plan.” his Not a Partisan Tssue This is not n purtisan added, “Tt should not assume importance, As 1 IORAY MUST GO, SAY .- REPUBLICAN LEADERS ..y =5 - question he wish to the practical have not meet, as plan on which many nations ever agreed, though it may every desire, T therefore ¢ /Indiana State Chairman De- 1o the favarabic concideration o the . senate, with the IroPoge - crees Governor Qught to | cieariy indicating anr retuen taioh® : . here to the league of nations.” Retire From Office kel WL (Continued on Eighteenth Page), Indianapolis, Dee. 6.—(Goternor I office will be sought as a result of his involved finaneial affairs, Clyde A , clared today after a number of con ferences with party leaders, o I am determined to carry out my judgment that MeCray, ought to rotire office which Governor from the Freight and Tax Reductions e respect. he holds,” said Mr. Walt Meet With Favor, Rob- Mr. Walb =aid his opinion that the o exccutive should leave office 18 inson Declares based “on the testimony the governor ga in faderal court with re rence ——— e to the manner In which he carried w D, .
