TodaylGREATEST WCOMETAX
By Arthur Brisbane , I
L At Least, Big Voting.
Home Goes Coolidge.
Another Pasteur Wanted.
Mussolini On Movies.
(Copyright, 1928, by Star Co.)
The News columns will sup
ply you with fuets on the elec
tion. r The mum thing is that pen
pie really took the trouble to
vote, something that compara
tively few have done usually.
It AVMulU have been more en
couragini; had interest in pub
lic questions aroused Ihe un
usual interest, rather than
questions aside from American
government.
Hut voting for any reason
is welcome.
Old A'ermout farmers thai
knew "t'al" Coolidge," u little
boy, helping his father with
the farm chores, would have
been untaxed to see that same
"C'al" Tuesday gettiiif; out of
a seven-car special train, tak
ing him from the White House
to the polls at Northampton,
Mass.
The President east his first
vole in Northampton, was
elected councilman there, long
ago, and has been steadily in
office ever since, nominated
nineteen or twenty limes, never
beaten. A record in politics as
good as Cromwell's in war.
Cromwell never lost a battle.
The old farmers would ob
serve with pleasure that being,
President, with $7f,000 u year
salary, a White House and a
big yacht, have not spoiled
Calvin Coolidge. Next March
lie. will move from the Whit;1
House to Northampton and re
sume life in a small house
which '.he rents for $32.50 a
month.
Such a man is nut dependent
on money. Hut the President
could .save plenty of it. More
than one law firm would be
glad to guarantee him! three
times his presidential salary.
And he would not have to work
hard. Perhaps the President
c'hoosesj to wait awhile, look
around, and possibly take u sec
ond elective term in the White
House, eight years, hence.

York, able scientist and bril

a man free of preconceived no

of medical training, seeking to
explain cancer according to
old methods." , '

through
which he luis

nlono from tho multitude of prob
lems which must engage Ms at
tention beforo March 4. but also
from details of ills personal plans
beforo Inauguration dny.
Tho president-elect Is surprised
nl th Hlxn or the electoral lilnior-
I which the country gave him
In Tuesday'a record-breaking elec--
tlon and ho frankly said so at a
,.nf,.ri.m.0 wllh newspaper men.
'lle first lie haa had since before
ji,P mt out from Washington on
j his Inst campaign drive. Despit i
llln. nniireeeilented total of votes
1 the
ln ltl0 electoral college, which
the country has given him. Hoo
ver lias no feeling of victory or
exultation he stated In his first
message to the American people
as president-elect. He feels that
ihero has been Imposed a sense
of solemn responsibility of the
future and of completo depend
ence upon divine guldanew foe the
tusk which the greatest office m
the world imposes. f .
"That tiisk-1 Is ' io ' give the host
within mo to interpret the com
mon sense and tho idoals of. the
American people." said Hoover.
"1 can only succeed In my ptirt
bv I ho co-operation and unity ot
spirit of tho leaders of opinion
and of action for tho common ser
vice of our country."
South Vote.
Tile president-elect had no com
ment to mnko ln his talk with
the newspaper men as to- what lie
might consider to be tho effect
of tho driving of the wide ffodgo
Into tho solid Democratic south
lp the cnptilrlnsr of Vlrglniu, North
Carolina, Florida and Texas.
However, tho unexpected result
In that section naturally was grati
fying for "the overwhelming" con
fidence of the country, he referred
to tho fnct that his selection had
been "without, regard to section
or Interest."
While tho president-elect has de
cided upon no details of specific
plans for tho future, ho has stated
emphatically that' his Induction
Into office will be attendee; uy it
simplicity equal to that of any
Inauguration that has been held.
That la ln keoplng with his often
expressed Ideas that It Is more
appropriate to keep to the simple
side of life. '
Hoover Is expected to remain in
California for several weeks be
fore turning eastward again for
Washington, whero he plans tu
spend the Christmas holiday. Be
fore . leaving hole he will hpvo
some conferences wllh party lead
er In this section, and will meet
others upon his arrival in the
east.
Aftor his period of rest and
recreutlon he will give attention
not only to the selection of tho
members of his cabinet, but also
to tho legislative nrograu. which
j he will present to congress, tho
' focal point of which will be farm
! relief, which he regards as the
! greatest economic problem before
the country.
