Tux llrdiK-tluiM Too Iarfce. "In i far as Income-tax exemp tions are concerned," he continued, "It seems to me the committee, has gone as far an It is safe to go and somewhat further than 1 should have gone.'' in a long discussion of foreign relations, Mr. Coolidge made these assertions: That the Locarno security agree- ments represent the success of the policy of having European countries settle their own political problems! without Involving the 1-nltcd States. That reduction of land armaments not onlv is of prime Importance, but a problem peculiarly European in la practical aspects, and that "our country would look with particular gratitude upon any action which those countries might take to re duco their ,own military forces." Disarmament Favored. That "the general policy of our country la for disarmament, and It ought not to hesltato to adopt any practical plan that might reasonably be expected to succeed. Hut It would not care to attend a conference which from its location or consti-, tuency, would In all probability, prove futile." That American participation in the world court . would not mean Involvement In the league of Na tions, but would "contribute greatly to the advancement of our Ideals." That debt settlements already ne gotiated "impoae no undue burden and are mutually beneficial" and that "every rcasounhlc effort will( be made lo secure agreements - for liquidation with tho remulning coun-i tries." Turning to domestic issues, the! president advocaHcd anew nact-l ment of a selective service act for mobilization of materials as well . as men In emergencies. The report of the air board ought to be "rcas-t suring," he declared, adding that the depart'ments of war, navy and commerce, "should each be provided with an udditional assistant secre tary, not necessarily with statutory duties hut who would bo available under tho direction of tho secretary to give especial attention to air navigation." j ..Need of, Air .Fleet, "Wo must have an air strength worthy of America, "he said, "Pro vision should he. made for two ad-! ditional brigadier generals for the army air service. Temporary rank corresponding to their duties should bo awarded to active flying officers In both army and navy." Wltji reference to agriculture, the president regarded Its position as a whole, Improved, although many lo calities and individuals still are In a distressing condition. In his opin ion, farmers generally do not wish meddling by the government or di rect or Indirect prlco fixing "which would result from permitting the government to operate In tho agri cultural markets" nd power should bo given tho department of agricul ture to aid marketing associations without undue regulation. Ono Control In Shipping. In his analysis of the merchant marine problem, he took the view that while elimination of the regional representation feature of the ship ping board Is not desirable, "it has become apparent that without cen tralized executive action the man agement of this great business will flounder In incapacity and lan guish under a division of council." . Pointing out that tho federal gov ernment bus little to deal with tho situation in the coal Industry, ho advocated authority for appointment of temporary boards with authority to call for witnesses and documents, conciliate differences, encourage arbi tration and In case of threatened si-arclly exercise control over dis tribution. For Kn forcing I, aw. As for prohibition, tho president said : "I'ndcr the orderly processes of our fundamental ln I tuft Ions the constitution was lately amended pro viding for national prohibition. The congress passed an act fop Its en forcement, and similar acts have been provided by most of the states. It Is the law of the land.
