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. " '

WHAT DIVIDENDS WOULD AN AEIP0ET PAY?
ASIDE from, its practical transportation and commercial
development value, a new modern airport in Mcdford
would bo one of tho best advertising mediums conceivable.
With the completion of the field Sfodford would at once be
rated as the third most important, air center on the Pacific
coast. 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.. ' .

In aviation and landing fields

and tho selection of Medford hh

before steps wwe taken to ac-
l ii Ire land fur an airport. The
silo selected was ut 'the Jucksoll

ed Jointly by the city of Medfotd
and Jackson county, and was un

It be utilized as a landing field,"
After outlining the Improve
