Babson, statistical expert, suggested today that President Roosevelt’s pre sent administration should be follow ed by a coalition government. ‘‘The Democrats are right when in sisting on more equal opportunities and on xavoring the plain people at the expense of the privileged few,” he said in an address pz*epared for de livery before the Advertising Club of Boston. “The Republicans, however, are equally right in appealing for more rugged individualism, and insisting upon rewards and punishments. The truth lies with ai combination of both Republicans and Democrats. “Hence, my answer to the question of ‘whither’ is that this country should be governed, beginning in 1937 with a coalition administration.” Commenting on financial recovery, he said: “The main fly in the ointment is the universal lack of confidence, due to the huge relief expenditure and the political and labor situations.’' Business charts, however, he said, show “we are on our way back to prosperity.” SEVEN MEN KILLED IN POWDER BLASTS Los Angeles, Cal..
