K PRESIDENT
SHOWS CONCERN
' OVER COAL STRIKE
: Calvin Coolidge Reticent About
i Politics and Expresses N i
Anxiety About Rail Situation i
'(Can tinned From Pan OtmO
walkouts. "Wherever we go we always
hear that conditions are ' wcwae than
where we are.
"There had been every proepect
a speedy settlement of the rail . strike
before we lett Washington hut " and
the vice presidents voice., trailed off
After a long- period during which bis
gaze was focused at a bit of thread
which he held In his fingers he vol
untarily changed the subject to the
coal strike, .saying :
"We had rather looked for an ad
justment of the coal strike by this
time, too. So far" as the railroads are
concerned, they have a tribunal, hut
the coal mines have no such body to
handle adjustment -questions. , So far
as I know there is no national law
that can be invoked to aid in the set
tlement of the coal strike,' but I have
see a statement in the newspapers
that the president likely would take up,
this matter with congress soon.V j
i The vice president seemed to have
In mind the. fact that the admlnistri
tion should Jhave some law to invoke
in the matter of the coal strike arid
be repeated that he knew of no wy
for the government to reach into the
situation. He continued: i
"The mining of coal has been con
sidered a local matter, under the juris
diction of the state, and the govern
ment has no control until the coal Is
on cars and moving in interstate
commerce." i
CAUTIOUS ON POLITICS . j
Questions in regard to tariff leg-tola
tkm and politics were answered de
liberately and cautiously by the vice
president, in 'much the same manner
sls he discussed the strike situation.
He said that he understood that the
tariff would come up for a vote this
week. Aside from commenting upon
the Pennsylvania primary, the result
of which, he said, "came from a split
in the conservative Penrose organisa
tion," and merely' touching upon the
Indiana primary by saying that Bev
eridge was a man of long-standing
reputation who was placed against a.
man who was not on the ground, air.
Coolidge would not discuss the Pro
gressive movement farther f
This man, who is second lis rank
only to President Harding assured his
, interviewers that business conditions
throughout the country were good jde
spite the strikes. He said that trade
publications and statistics bore out this
belief and that there was in reality a
shortage of labor willipg to work for a
fair wage in the country. i
Mr. Coolidge expressed keen interest
in the politics of this state and ques
tioned about the split ' existing in the
Republican party here. He lauded! the
states representatives. '; particularly
Senators McNary and Stanfield-jand
said that he saw K. J. Adams, secre
tary to Stanfleld. Quite often and twaa
in touch in a slight way with condi
tions in the Northwest. Employment
and business conditions, the strike! and
Portland's shipping- were other ques
tions which he desired " answered
The train was 4Q minutes late, ajpart
of which time 'was" lost through special
. stops along the line in Oregon, j He
appeared and shook hands with crowds
at Medford. Ashland, Grants Pass,
Itoseburg, Eugene, Albany and Salem.
The vice president? characterized his
trip through the state as pleasant and
refreshing and the temperature as re
. markably comfortable. He had never
been farther West than Arizona before
this trip and said that he had been
trying to get out West for two years.

Mrs. Calvin Coolidge and two sons, Jobn and Calvin Jr., photographed
on their arrival in Portland Saturday evening:.
Mrs. Coolidge Is Gracious
Vivacious in Conversation
Mrs. Coolidge and the vice president
present a fine "study in opposites."
She is delightfully ' vivacious and an
animated conversationalist, but she is
said to have been wooed and won with
fewer words than ever before on rec
ord, for the vice president is known
as the master of brevity.
An ideal second lady of the land
such is the impression gained in meet
ing Mrs. Coolidgfe for as. she stepped
from the Shasta her face lit up witk
pleasurable anticipation and she greet
ed everyone presented to her with a
warmth and cordiality that immediate
ly won them. A charming type of the
twentieth century r New ngland ma
tron, she was becomingly gowned in
a smart tailored suit of rust colored
cloth with which she wore a wide
brimmed brown straw hat feather
trimmed. A large corsage bouquet of
sweet peas completed the costume.
Mrs. Coolidge ia conceded to be one
of the best dressed women in Wash
ington, but she tacitly admits her dis
tinguished husband deserves 'much of
the credit. .
QCESTIOJT IS PARRIED
Mrs. Coolidge parried the ' direct
question. suggested by , journalistic
Washington gossipers at the time of
the presidential election as to whether
her husband actually picks out her
clothes.
"That's really a leading question,,
ehe laughed. But she did not deny it.
The vice president declares that his
wife's favorite pastime is eating lob
sterwill Portland hostesses to -Mrs.
Coolidge 'please take notice.
Although her official position re
quires much time, Mrs. Coolidge is
devoted to her two sons, John and Cal
vin Jr., and both she and the vice
president are real chums with the boys.
TRIP MUCH EXJOTED
-We have had n. eMigtatful trip
across the continent and were most
ccrthally entertained in San Francisco,"
said both Mrs. Coolidge and Jars.
& teams, who with her husband, is of
the Coolioge party. ... -.'
Cordial hospitality will be extended
to Mrs. Coolidge and Mrs. Stearns
The local Aapter of PI Beta Phi will
welcome Mrs. Coolidge in some way,
the plans not having been perfected

and Mrs. Stearns Tuesday from-4 to

Calvin Coolidge is Just what his
name implies a sturdy son C, New
England, unassuming, almost taciturn,
endowed with a singleness of purpose
and the same determination that gave
his ancestors, John and Mary Coolidge,
the courage to make themselves a home
in, the -wilderness of forest that was
MassachusettakJtn, 1630. ,
Born on a farnv the son' of a prosper
ous farmr near. Plymouth. Vermont,
Coolidge spent his early youth ' much
as any other fanner's son. in doing the
chores about the farm. His ambitions,
however, did not lead him to follow
the footsteps of his father, and the lat
ter, with the wisdom of one who under
stands, encouraged and assisted young
Coolidge in': his plans, to enter college.
Coolidge was born on Independence
day, 1873, a coincidence which his ad
mirers say gave him the singleness of
purpose and Yankee obstinacy charac
teristic of the man. 'Svvi'
STUDIED AT AMHERST
ilistory and . affairs of , government
were subjects of intense interest r to
Coolidge eve a when a boy. He spe
cialised in these subjects at Amherst
college and graduated lit the class of
1895. In his senior year -b won first
honors, a gold medal offered by the
Sons of the American -Revolution, for
the best essay by an undergraduate of
an American -college on the principles
of the War for American Independence.
After studying law for less than two
years in a small office at Northampton,
Mass Coolidge- was admitted to the
bar. . . He took a prominent part in : the
city1 . government, being elected to the
dty ceuncil and later was elected to
the Massachusetts-house of representa
tives. He was mayor of Northampton
in 1910 and 1911, and later was elected
to the state senate, in which he served
four years. 1 His participation in the
government of his state was the first
step in Coolldge's 'political career.
After , serving in the senate, he was
elected lieutenant governor and held
office for three years until he was
elected governor in 1919. He was re
elected In 1920.
His firm stand for law and order
during the police strike in Boston
brought Coolidge national recognition,
and was the most significant incident
in his1 career and the first step toward
the place of honor to which he has been
elected. i
A CtEAB TEI9XEB '. .
,: Coolidge does not answer the descrip
tion of the popular conception of a pol
itician. He. Is reserved, even. shy. As a
speaker it is what Coolidge has to say
and the very- apparent air of personal
conviction that holds his audience and
makes up for what he lacks in tricks
of oratory. As a politician he showed
none of the traditional traits bluster
and extravagant promises nor did he
indulge in bitter personalities, i His
criticism Is calculated to be construct
ive rather than destructive and i he
propounds his Ideas : of government
upon his principle that "there j will
come out of government what is: put
into it." ' . ' U
Away from the glare of publio -life,
the 'vice president lives the quiet life
of the average American citizen. 1 He
is devoted to his home and family, and
is the most important member in the
councils of his two sons.
It was while studying law in North
Ungton, Vt,. They were married in
then Miss Grace A. Goodhue of Bur
ampton that Coolidge met his wife,
1905. i
