COOLIDGE STILL OPPOSED MCNARY-HAUGEN FARM RELIEF BILL TO I Began Rivalry In 1881 Michigan has never defeated a Har- vard team in football. Rivalry be-' tween the two institutions was begun as early as th~e fall of 1881, when the eastern school triumphed, 4-0. Meet- ing again in 1883, John Harvard again emerged victorious, 3-0. Following that game, football relations between the two were broken for 11 years.In the 1895 game the score of the first game was duplicated.

He declared his, "decision" would i be respected, and advi e his party toj s t itself seriously to the task of "se- lecting another candidate." The announcement was made in aI speech delivered by the President toj members of the Republican national WANTS INCREASED NAVY Recommends Flood control For Lower Mississippi And Construction Of Boulder Canyon Dnm (By Associated Press) WAS'HINGTON, Dec. 6--Calling up- on the people to continue a "stern self-denial" in national expenditures, President Coolidge laid before Con- gress today a moderate program of erxpansion for its defenses and nat- ural resources. In a message which touched upon virtually all of the legislative' issues which have aroused interest and spec- ulation, the President presented views differing only in minor details from those he has previously out- lined on the major problemns of farm relief, taxation, flood control, foreign relations and the state of the army and navy. Informing Congress that le had not changed in his opposition of the Me- Nary-Haugen farm relief bill with its equalization fee, lie recoimmended in- stead a federal farm loan board with a revolving fund to build up coopera- tive marketing and aid in the dispo- sition of crop surpluses. On tax re- vision, he stood by the Treasury's program. The Navy, he said, should be ex- panded by the addition of cruisers, submarines, airplanes and carriers a well as the development of the mer- chant marine as a second line of de- fense. He recommended that flood-control be confined this year to the lower Mississippi River, with provision for adequatesdikes, energency spillways and aides to navigation; cationio that this problem should be met by viewing it as a separate, iational question without atteniipts to link it with other lroposals for river cOin- trol and expansion; and suggested that the peole enjoying the benefits of landkreclaimed by government- built dikes share a partial, although perhaps lighter, burden of its ex- pense. Warns Against Debt Contending that the country had at- taned a prosperity never exceeded and therefore was in a position to en- joy some of the benefits which re- sult from economy, Mr Coolidge pre- sented the spectre, nevertheless, of a large national debt and warned that until revenues now directed to- wards its reduction could be diverted to internal improvements and nation- al development, the people must con- tinue to sacrifice and the government must continue to economize. "The Secretary of the Treasury," the President said, "has recommended a measure which would give us a better balanced system of taxation and without oppression produce suf- ficient revenue. It has my complete support." The President reiterated his belief in a high protective tariff, declaring that any reduction of the levies would work a hardship on industry and ag- riculture alike. Although but one paragraph of his' message was devoted to prohibition, the President emphasized the need for both the people and public offic- ials to "observe the sanctions of this constitutional provision and it, re- sulting laws." Recalling that Congress and the states "with one or two nota- ble exceptions" have passed adequate laws for enforcement of the eigh- teenth amendment, Mr. Coolidge de- I clared that "The federal authoritieq proposed to dischetg'qe their obligation for enforcement to the full extent of their ability." ) Discusses Foreign Policy Although the message was devoted almost exclusivelyeto domestic affairs, the President did inform Congress again that American intervention in foreign lands was merely for the pu- pose of protecting the lives and prop- erty of this country's nationals. Hle defended the administration's policy in China and Nicaragua and express- ed the belief that the controversy with Mexico over oil and land laws, by "a HIGH LIGHTS IN PRESIDENT'S ADDRESS Farm Relief.-Creation of a federal farm board to admin- ister a revolving fund to help co-operatives.

The immediate effect was to electrify a meeting which had been expected only to produce a po- lite exchange of generalities. Mr. Coolidge's words fell with par- ticular force upon those of his friends who had maintained that despite "I, do not choose to run" statement, he had by no means eliminated himself and would be drafted in 1928. It took but a few works for the IPresident to dispose of his intentions toward a renomination. Only a few of the committeemen, who are in Washington to select next year's convention city, had any ink- ling that such a declaration was com-, ing. It had been generally understood amongst them that they might expect from the President no elaboration of, his statement of August 2, but would listen only to a general discussion of party issues. WASHINGTON, Dec. 6 - Assured that President Coolidge had no pref- erence, delegations representing a number of cities seeking the next Re- hublican convention fought hard to- day to retain the support of national committee members they had receiv- ed, before Chairman Butler announc- ed that he favored Kansas City. The committe which will make a selec-4 tion tomorrow heard arguments of contesting groups at lengthy sessions today. Chairman Butler held out for Kan- sas City, despite a White House state-I { nient that President Coolidge had no 1 choice and believed that Butler also was aetually neutral. -i-- -'-nd m-o 5 o'(10(k today arnd tomorrow in BIBLICAL SCHOLAR ihe lobby of the Union.
