LAOLLETTE HITS COOUIGE OOTIN Declares His Yacation s Politi- cal Failure ‘Washington, July 8—8enator Rob- | art M. La Follette raised a dissent- g voice today to clash with the, chorus that has been predicting the renomination of President Coolidge. | The son and successor of the late Wisconsin rebel, who used to disrupt the political calm with similar broadsid: called Mr. Coolidge western vacation a political failure and prophesied the farmers would not be “taken in” by “this kind of | Fuff, “Surrounded by newspaper report- | lared stern pro- ers and photographers, the young exponent of W gres men, the president is attempting to make the farmers forget his veto of farm relief legislation by wearing a ten-gallon hat and catching trout With milk-fed worms, 4 The farmers, however, are not go- ing to forget that “President Cool- wige had given the great financial terests of the country everything they have asked for from the gov- arnment, while refusing to counte- nanee any genuine measure of relief to the basic industry, agriculture,” continued the senator. Mad Rush Indistinct “There does not seem, at this writ- ing, to be any mad rush of important political leaders from the west to the Black liills. If one excepts that great ‘friend’ of the farmer, Con- gressman Tilson, republican floor leader from Connecticut, who thinks tax reduction more important than farm relisf or flood control, Gen. Wood, an ‘expcrt on agriculture’ from the Philippines, and Avery, ex- Governor of Nebraska, there does not Seem to be much political vitality in the list of visitors to the summer White House. “To dcte President Coolidge has not 1 :de a very cuspicious start in Lis campaign to break the third term tradition in the United States. . “Many political time-servers and job holders under the Coolidge ad- ministration fnsist there is no longer any validity in the third term tradi- tion and that, anyway, it does not apply to the individual upon whom their fobs depend. They say the peo- ple ne longer fear the destruction of democracy by election of a presi- dent for a longer tenure than eight years. I believe these gentlemen are gravely in error in their analysis of public Eentiment on this very im- portant question, particularly in the northwest. “The Amearican people are not un- aware of the enormous growth of the power of the executive since Washington's time. They have not overlooked the tremendous federal patronage machine, carrying with it control of southern delegates when the sitting president is a republican. The intelligent citizens of this coun- try know that once a president T ‘mashed the third-term precedent thars will be no effective limit to the tenure of a chiet executive who has coma to exercise kingly power which gives an unscrupulous T an opportunity to perpetuate him- ®elf in office. Tmminent, Not Academic “The danger that a president when no emergency exists. out of mere greed for office, may attempt to grasp o longer term in office than ‘Washington, Jefferson or Lincoln en- joyed, is mminent, not academic. Every person conversant with politicat’ eonditions in knows that President Coolidge's power In the republican party rests largely on, his control of southern | delegates, “who are bought and sold with federal jobs serving as the medfum of exchange.
