NEW RADIO BEACON THE corner stonn of President Cnrilitlffe's hold upon the Aint-ritan people lias been his Kineerity. No I'residcitt in recent liistoi-y Iiiik defied popular clamor und political expedi ency more frequently and with less sacrifice tq his popularity. The reason hag been that the people, an a whole, have always j felt that the Preaident, while he may have held views contrary to their own, was always absolutely sincere in his opposition, and they have willingly (rallied to him what they instinctively grunt tu every man, the ritcht to his own honest opinions. With the conventions near at hand the usual wild rumors are being scattered around, and uiikiiik them is the eluim that, when the President said he did not choose to run, he was merely playing polities and laying the Rroiind fur a dramatic return from Klbu later on. It is now slated that the President is to purposely keep out of touch with the Kansas City convention, go that when he is nominated he can have no opportunity to decline, and will be forced to accept the honor as a "fait ac compli," ' : 7 - A stampedeito Coolidgn is, of course, ainoni; the possibili ties at Kansas City, as wo huvc previously pointed out. Hut that President (.'oolidge has been or will be a party to any such stampede, is simjily one of those things that "ain't so." President Coolidgc does not want the nomination.' He said so last August,' ho has said the same thing in different words at least three times since then. To question his good faith now is to finest inn the most salient clement of his character its a itiiiii and as a statesman. , . .'i Moreover, before the Kansas City convention, it is more than likely that President Coolidge Vill remove what slight doubt may remain in those minds which arc unfamiliar with the Vermont vernacular. Before the convention balloting be gins, there is good reason to believe,, President Coolidge will be placed with Mr. Hughes as among thosc'who will not accept the nomination if it is tendered them. ' This at least is the login of the situation. For President Coolidge must realize, as well as anyone, that he can only ac cept the nomination now by losing his greatest political asset, which is the deep-seated faith among the people in his absolute sincerity and entire freedom from the deylous tricks of the pro fessional politician.

All official stops in Southern Oregon would be in Mcd ford, and the local date line would get-in every paper in the I'nited States as a result. "' . In the radio world, thanks to KMIKD, Medford is regarded as the best little oiy on the Pacific coast. What has been done in the radio field, can and must be done in the aerial field. The cost of such a field is important of course, but more im portant is what dividends would such an investment pay the people of this community.. ' .
