(By PETER KEEGAN) PRESIDENT COOLIDGE is aot going to * lot Governor Plnchot run ?way with the Republican nomina tion or anything else just becanae he settled the hard coal strike. In con gratulating th? Pennsylvania gover nor on the settlement, Coolidge thanked him for his "co-oferatioii." This didnt please Pinehot and he de clined to give the text ,pf the tele gram to the press.' He thought he should have ell tfie credit for him self. PINCHOT FOLLOWED up his first success with an appeal to all state governors to see that there was no profiteering on coal and for a fed eral investigation of freight rates. But the President let it U known that this was old stuff as far as he ares concerned, and that he had told thai It is* now therJ are reliable reports here that he has something good up his sleeve. JOE FRELIGHUYSEN, who used to be e Senator from New Jersey un til his .constituents returned him to private life, thinks freight rates are to blame for hig coal prices, end he has e plan to prove it All the detail* have not been made public, but the writer is informed that one of the features of the plan is to haul a truck load of coal from the Pennsyl vania mines to the point of consump tion to see if it can't be done cheep er by motor than by rail. If the op erators won't sell him any coal, Fre linghuysen will haul a load of rock. Senator Henry Cabot Lodge is going to help him, but whether or not he will drive the truck has not been de cided. WHILE THE-" REST of the country was pledging thousands of dollars for the earthquake victims in Japan, there was a row here over the management of the relief cam paign itself. The American Red Cross jumped into the breach within a few hours after the first news of the disaster reached the United. States, but along came Herbert Hoover, with the veteran organiza tion which he used in Europe as the American Relief Administration, and wanted to take charge. Both organi zations demanded the limelight and 1 . ? ^ " 1 1 1 ? sag tfftaj.jfsa's! amalgamation wu effected, but Hoo WI gets his HUM in all the eommuni gues imii to the praas by tba Red THE NEW ENGLAND pie myth has been shattered?meaning that President Coolidge doesn't eat pie for breakfast. His breakfast mean is the old-fashioned American Standard: Ham and eggs. One of his favorite breakfast companions is Seldon P. Spencer, the Missouri Senator who is sun there will be a revolution in this country unless Congress lets the people have plentyof beer end wine. THE BIGGEST SCANDAL f1n SesMwrton just now is the story of s wild corn liquor parties in the of-| flees at the Capitol reserved for Con gressmen.
