July 4 may take on a new sig-
nlfieunco in our nutionul Ufa uftor
this your.
To date, our histories record
July 4 as chiefly notable because
It murks the anniversary ot -the
signing of (he l'cclnrnlion of In
dependence hack in 7H.
Future historians, however, may
IY.-I Impelled to odd to tli in that It
In also Hie anniversary of the birth
of Calvin, t'oolidgu. twenty-ninth
president, of tht . United SUIcs,
lucky hi a r and be returned to tin? J
White House for another historic
four years.
Failing this, July 4 may find
still another claim to eonmu,.
tion In the meeting at Cleveland.

"Conference ror Progressive To
Utleal Action."
It Is tit llils conference that any
really aggressive program for ln
deiendenl or third party aetivlly
will he developed. Here, utter re
publicans and democrats haw
picked their candidates and wrii
ten their platform. Uolicrt Marion
l.a Folhtte or Wisconsin and his
followers will determine on the
courae they are to pursue.
Will July A,' IHIM, take place
alongside July 4, 177G, as n mile
stone in American history as a re
sult of the Cleveland conference?
Should a La Kollotto candidacy
he decided on at that time, mid
should such candidacy eateh pub
lic favor even to tho extent of
deadlocking (he election of hoUi old
party candidates, tho train of
events which could conceivably
follow might do more , to shap j
the future of this government than
anything which lias happened
since that original July Ui Dec
laration. That J,a Kolb tte will lend an In

elect a progressive group which
will hold the hnlance of power In
