Coolidge Opposes Loans to

" NEW YORK. Nov. 20. Inter
preting his attitude toward busi
ness. President Coolidge in an
address toniftht' at the annual ban
quet of the New York State Cham
lier of Commerce, appealed for a
better and more sympathetic un
derstanding by the government of
tbe commercial world's problems
and by business men of the af
fairs of government.
"When government enters the
field of business with its great
resources, 'he said, "it has a ten
dency to extravagance and ineffi
ciency, but having the power to
i crush all competitors, likewise
closes the door of opportunity and
results in monopoly."
During his speech the President
reiterated his belief that there
must be continued effort toward
government economy and effici
ency with resulting tax reduction:
expressed the view that no perma
nent atabilization of European
finances and currency can be ac
complished without a definite ad
justment of the debts owed by
.various nations abroad to the
United States, and advocated anew
American adhesion to the World
.Court protocol.
When lNstance Handicap.
Declaring that the American
forefathers were wise In making
Washington the political center
of the nation, leaving New York
to develop as the business metro
polis. Mr. Coolidge said that this
arrangement, however, had re
sulted in one important disad
vantage "the possibility that
otherwise business and govern
ment might have had a better un
derstanding .of each other and
been less likely to develop mutual
misapprehensions and suspicions."
"If a contest could be held to
determine bow much those who
are really prominent in our gov
ernment life know about business
and how much those who are
really prominent In our business
life know about government," con
tinued the President) "it Is my
firm conviction that the prise
would be awarded to those who
are in government life. This Is
as It ought to be, for those who
have the greater authority ought
to have the greater knowledge.
"But it Is my even firmer con
viction that the welfare of our
country could be very much ad
vanced through a better knowl
edge by both of those parties of
the multifold problems with which
each has to deal."
Emphasizing the "desirability
of the largest possible independ
ence between government and
" business," the Executive expressed
the opinion that "each ought to be
sovereign In Its own sphere."
When government comes unduly
under the Influence of bnsiness,
he addded, the tendency Is to de
velop an administration which
"closes the door of opportunity;
becomes narrow and selfish in its
outlook, and results In an olig
archy." government Friend of Business.
The American policy toward
business, Mr. Coolidge asserted,
has been to cherish the general
structure of business while hold
ing its avenues open to the widest
competition so its opportunities
and benefits might be given the
broadest possible participation.
"While It Is true that tbe gov
ernment ought not to be and Is
not committed to certain methods
of acquisition which, while par
taking of the nature of unfair
practices try to masquerade under
the guise of business, "he added,
"the government is and ought to
be thoroughly committed to every
endeavor of production and distri
bution which Is entitled to be de
signated as true bntiness. Those
who are so engaged, instead of
regarding the government as their
opponent and enemy, ought to re
gard it as their vigilant supporter
and frlend." '
Oppose Military 1oans.
In hi discussion of the foreign
debt problem, the President reaf
firmed his conviction that loans
should not be made by the United
States or by American bankers,
' when the money advanced is used
for maintenance of great armies
and navies.
-"Loans," ho continued, "when

convicted of the murder of her
husband,. Henry Soper, ' a deputy

A Jury, largely of farmers, yes

the Adirondaks.

Henry 8oper was shot twice In

hard morning's work in the potato

a stranger came to the door, asked
admittance and was permitted to
enter the room in which her hus
band rested Then, the widow main
tained, she heard two shots, found
her husband dead and saw the
stranger disappear in an automo

case largely on circumstantial evi

did the shooting, attempting to
provo, through testimony of an ex
pert that the two bullets were
fired from Sopor's own revolver
which the widow attempted to keep
from investigators.

tables were provided ta order that
the various interesta might be seg

each side with representatives of
the state commissions. One was
fort)fled with various independ

talent and witnesses for the rail

pied the remainder or the room.
''California was first to testify.
The organised fruit shippers made
a valiant fight to sho wthe disas

duction, low ' market prices and
high freight rates. These shippers
are asking reduction of 29 cents
per 100 pounds in freight rates.

Is St.73 per 100 pounds.
"Following California, Idaho
presested her case, showing a very
bad financial condition with many
farmers bankrupt and farms being
sold on foreclosure.

had barely paid freight and of
livestock which sold for less than
