| Railroads Help to Keep I
| the Boys On the Farm I
Live boys leave the farm, not be
r cause they don’t want to work, but be- I
ill cause they want to make more money
| and have a better time. The lure of
I the city draws them, because they
I think it offers both of these things.
.And the farms not located on, or easily
accessible to, railroads are the farms
which lose the most boys.
: Railroads make farming profitable —by fur-
nishing quick transportation to the nation’s
♦. markets for all of the products of the farm.
* f Railroads make farm life pleasant— by bring-
ing to the farms many of the home comforts
: and conveniences of the city. Thus, the rail
roads, by making farm life more attractive and
more remunerative, help to keep the boys on
the farm and at work on. the big job of feeding
J ~ the people of this nation.
In return for the benefit*
ithat roilroade bring, you
, can help the railroads by
c ’ f , intelligent thinking and
f. air ' min ded talking--by
• being fair when they are
jraaa un^ attacked.

CONGRESS MESSAGE
AWAITED ID REVEAL
POLICY OF COOLIDGE
BY ROBERT T. SM ALL
(Leased Wire Service to The Journal.)
(Copyright, 1923.)
' WASHINGTON. Sept. 29.—1 t is',
becoming more and more apparent !
j every day that the country will have !
| to wait for his first message to con- j
I gress before it can fathom the
depths, of President Coolidge's mind
on matters of the greater public ;
! import. His past speeches and ;
! writings have told where the presi- ;
dent stands on the wider subjects
of Americanism, the constitution ;
and such like, but Mr. Coolidge still
is keeping his own counsel on the !
more concrete issues of the day. Es- !
! forts of political antagonists to j
j “smoke him out” have been fruit
i Jess.
The president writes an occasion-'
al brief but polite letter approving
of this project or that, but to all !
intents, and purposes still he is the
silent man of the White House and i
is likely to remain so until congress
meets-.
! No man in public life ever had to
j face ; a more crucial test than that
! which will confront Mr. Coolidge as
he sits down in the ides of Novem
J ber to begin the draft of hit, mes- ;
! sage to congress on the state of the ;
union’. It will be at once his inatt ■
' gural a.ddress and the state paper !
upon which he will be judged for |
re-nbmination and possible re-elec-;
tion. ■
-The first of the presidential pref
erence primaries in the western
states come early in the new year
The impressiotf’ Mr. Coolidge makes
upon the country in his first mes
sage to’ congress in December will
carry its influence over into these
preferential elections.
Interest to Be Keen
Tbe silence which has preceded it
' will cause every word of the first
I message to - be dissected. It is safe
to say 'that even two months before
' it is scheduled for delivery few stat’ >
! papers ever have been awaited with
more interest. Even during the ex-!
! citing days of the war when Wood- ;
| row Wilson would make his way to
Capitol Hill with a special address j
| under his arm there was general
| understanding as to what he was
about’ to say.
Mr. Wilson was known as a man
who thought much to himself, who
confided in but few, and yet Wash
ington has discovered in President
Coolidge who shares his view's with
even greater conservatism than the
! war president. Mr. Coolidge per
■ haps is a better listener than Mr. |
AA r ilson was; he also will answer
! simple arid direct questions quite
1 precisely, but he will not volunteer ■
! ms views nor be drawn into any !
j sort of discussion.
Invitations Discouraged
Mr. Coolidge is endeavoring in ns I
; polite manner as possible to dis '
courage all invitations to him to
I make addresses. He has no love of
i travel and he believes, furthermore,
j that his duty is to remain in Wash-
I ington at this time, absorbing as
much as he can of the perplexities j
of government, and considering the
general policies of his administra- !
tion.
President Coolidge continues to
I state that he. -will do his utmost to
; carry out the policies enunciated by .
! President Harding. He feels he ;
J but serving out Mr. Harding’s term, ;
Hand yet he is also conscious of the
! fact that he must stand before the
judges by rhe manner of his own
conduct in the White House.
I Therefore senators end representa-
I fives are expecting Mr. Coolidge in I
his me. tge to give firm adherence
to the Harding policies and at the
same ti- n announce some of his
; own. They will also watch with
; his eagerness for any Indication as
I to just how he p. rposes to proceed
(in ca ;/ing out the Harding poli
| There Is especial interest in the
! Coolidge attitude, toward the world
! court. But at the same time if Mr.
, ( Coolidge chooses not to press that
! issue too hard on the eve of a pres
idential ca paign he can find plen
ty of Harding reasoning for a. pol
' icy of nnn-coercion in dealing with
the senate on the subject.
Air. Coolidge already has made 1t
plain that’ he dies not believe it is
up to the president of tbe United
States io do all of the thinking for
congress. If the farm bloc desires
a special session of cohgress he has
said let the farm bloc present its
program for his consideration.
If this action by the new presi
dent is to he taken as *n index, he
j may throw all of the burden cl ini

gress. He will tell congress the state
of the union as he sees it. he will

then it will be up tn congress tn

COMPLETES WORK
AND ENDS SESSION
■
GENEVA. Sept. 30.—(8y th® As
sociated Press.) —After a mouth’s .
session, during which the period of
the Greco-Italian crisis had been
passed through to a final solution of |
the difficulty, the fourth assembly j
of the league of nations adjourned !
Saturday in atmosphere of satisfac-t
tion among the delegates for the i
achievements of the session and
firm hope in greater accomplish
ments for the future.
It was made entirely clear by the I
speakers at. the final session that. ■
the hope of th© future was pinned ;
largely on collaboration by the i
United States, whenever it could he
obtained, with the constructive .
plans of the league, even if the day ■
never should come when America ;
will be actually found among the
members. Dr. Cosme de la Tor
riente, of Cuba, president of the as
sembly, in an eloquent valedictory
i address, took America and placed
her in definite form before the dele
gates, declaring that her aid was
vastly important for the future of
mankind.
Spontaneous appl a u s e rang
through the great auditorium as Dr.
Torriente spoke thus of tbe United !
States, and it, broke out anew when ,
i the Cuban statesman, aiming to j
show that he did not despair of even- j
; tual American adherence, gave voice f
! to this sentiment
“I hope that pnee an agreement is |
reached regarding the form and ■
manner of their co operatoin with
our work, we shall be able to wel
come the representatives of that
great Amerircan nation which gave
birth to Washington, Lincoln, Wil
son and Harding; that people, which
represents so powerful a moral and,
material force in the world, and
which for that very reason can not.
although it has not ratified the cov
enant, refuse the league its valuable
assistance.
Collaboration Asked
“Until that day I trust that, just
as American representatives recently
collaborated in the settlement of
certain questions, so when other
problems of world importance arise
m the solution of which the United
States can assist us, we shall see
them working side by side with us
in that high faith and enthusiasm
they have always displayed in every
kind of disinterested endeavor.’’
Dr. De la Torriente, said that he
hoped the United States would en- ,
ter the league. Although it had ;
not ratified the covenant. the
United States, he declared could not J
refuse the league its valuable aid,
so vastly important to th© future
of mankind.
Forty-six states voted. Uruguay
received 40 votes; Brazil, 34; Belgium,
32; Sweden, 31; Czecho-Slovakia, 30
and Spain, 30. Persia, Portugal, Chi
na, Chile, Holland, Switzerland and
Colombia received scattering -votes.
The only change in the council is
the replacement of China by Czecho
Slovakia. The defeat of China for
re-election is ascribed to an under
standing between th© Latin Ameri
can bloc and the little entente to give
representation to the ’alter.
The elesh'g assembly session was
productive of another constructive
debate, this time on disarmament.
The assembly voted to forward to
ail governments for their examina
tion and opinion the draft of the
treaty of mutual assistance among*
the nations, the fundamental note ■
of the pact being disarmament in pro- !
portion to national security.
Although several speakers opposed ;
j the text of the treaty, all the dele-
gates held that the project, as a has-'
ic effort, embodied a great step (
I forward.
Moral Disarmament Urged
j Dr. Urrutia, of Columbia, shared
with Lord Cecil's nften-voiced view
that moral disarmament must pre
cede effective material disarmament.
He declared that real progress would
only come when the work of the ;
permanent court of international jus-!
tice. became, more nearly universal I
and its jurisdiction was made com
pulsory.
Dr. Urrutia reminded the assem
bly that the American jurist, Elihu
Root, had expressed the -new that I
war could not be avoided by procla- ,
mations and resolutions, but only by |
organizing these modern forces (
which are against war in such a !
way that when the contingency 5
arises these forces can be employear
practically.
“The samp principles were pro- ■
claimed recently by the late President:
Harding, to whose memory I desire '
to pay grateful tribute.” added Dr.:
Urrutia. He declared rhe Pan-Ameri
can congress at Santiago had done!
much toward establishing peace in .
South America, and he hoped the!
Havana, congress in 1926 would!
bring still geater progress.
Court Is Hailed
Professor Alejandre Alvarez, of
Chile, hailed the draft of the treaty
as the most important achivement
of the fourth assembly of the league.
He thought the court of justice the ,
league lad established would pro-(
duce all ’h® good results expected!
of it. providing international law

Lake City to-Suwanee river, at Ella
