FORGOT IDEALS SAYS COOLIDGE President Drdiralet the Wicker Memorial Park l<> the War Veterans of the Calumet Region NOT DISCOURAGED Prog re?? Made Should lie, Emphasized Instead of | Our imperfections, Drp n the Chief Executive Hammond. 1ml., June 14.? I <AF>?<3 reater attention to hu-| bii welfare in America so that It will equal the nation's material] prosperity was urged here today hj President Coolldge in dcdlcil-1 lag Wicker Memorial Park to the World War Veterans of the Calu met region. park which is surrounded j the cities of Hammond. Whit-J fing and Kast Chicago was de clared by Mr Coolldge to repn 'iMt "practical Idealism," and" America, he added, "and amid all! her prosperity has not forgotten i her ideals." But "too many of us." the Pree- , Meat said, neglect to vote; too many "are unprovided with ad Vintages or education: ul?a iHt? ?umber lacking In religious devo tion Is altogether too large." "While we have reached?the-? highest point In material prosper ity ever achieved, there is a eon ?iderahlo class of unskilled work aft who have not coma into full participation in the wealth of the Nation," Mr. Coolldge coutinued. "Although our Government in sound and our courts are excel lent, too many of us disregard the obligations of citizenship by neglecting to vote, and violence aad crime are altogether too prev alent. Our delinquencies are suf ficient to require us to put forth all our efforts # to work toward their elimination. "But we should not bo dis couraged because we are sur rounded by human limitations and handicapped by human weak ness. We are also possessors of human strength. Intelligence, ^4urage, fidelity, character? ?rtiese, also, are our heritage and ^o?r mark of the Divine Image." Once more Mr. Coolldge took note of the flight of Colonel Cfcarlea Lindbergh from Now York to Paria. declaring "when one of your jrcstern young men is the first to fly from America to Europe our country hails him with 1 popular acclaim so spontaneous, so genuine, as to disclose the true values of our national char acter. The spirit and ideals which de veloped the Calumet region trom a wilderness in half a cen- 1 tury has been Instrumental in the Nation's advancement, the Pres ident continued. That these Ideals | might continue to dominate thvi coarse of humanity America en tered the World War, he said, and | helped to perpetuate them through Its victorious conclusion. "When America has drawn the sword It has always been the peo ple who have won," ho declared. "While a very large emphasis is entitled to be placed on our 1m ?rfectlon, after all It Is the pro ses we have made which Is of lef significance," he said. "Tho conclusion that our Institutions; are sound, that our social system ! is corret, has been demonstrated beyond question by our expert-1 ence. It is always very easy to promise everything. It is some times difficult to deliver any thing. In our political and eco nomic life there wIM always be, those who are lavish with unwar ranted criticism and well supplied | with false hope. It Is always well to remember that American insti tutions have stood the test of ex perience. "The estimation which we. as a nsftbn. set upon the patriotic ef ferfta at those who have served us In rtme of war is revealed not on ly in the untold treasure which ws pave lavished upon them and thfir dependents, but also In the behest possible honors which hAre constantly been conferred vpon them by their fellow citizens. As a people, we stand In respect ful reverence before the things thst afe unseen. It Is but a pass ing glance that we bestow upon wealth snd place, compared with tfcnt which we pour out upon e^ttrsK*, patriotism, holiness, snd character. We dedicate so monu ments to merely financial and effrttomlr success, while our coun flty Is filled with memorials to lnr>M who have done some service ^for their fellow men. \ "It lies been said that the war Was fought to mske s world fit for'the abode of heroes. I want to see our own country the first to make that expectation a real ity. But If It is to come true, It ran only be through the Industry, the devotion, and the character of tfen ptople ?h? mselves." L Women spent nesrly s billion dqIWNf* for hosiery last yesr.

While here. Mr. Bailey conferred with Secretary Job. of the Chamber of Commerce, on va rious phases of the work affectIng this section. In discussing the pending Clov Swnmp Canal. Mr. Bailey forecast that that waterway would carry most of the traffic now going via the Albemarle & Chesapeake Ca nal, to the east, for the reason that the channel of th? latter ca nal 4s beset continually by shift* inn sandH, and that there are oth er navigation hazards not en countered In the Dismal Swamp waterway. Mr. Bailey stated that the last barriers to the Federal purchase of the Dismal Swamp Canal are being passed now. in final settle ment of title difficulties on the Virginia sector of the waterway, resulting from obscurities and ln adequates In old deeds. The ca nal. which l.as a present depth of about H feet, is to be deepened to a mean level of lit feet, be said, and Its present width of 15 feel is to be Increased to 90 feet. There Js every reason to believe that fthat work will be finished some time next yoar, he commented. In the course of an interview. Mr. Bailey discussed other water way projects In various section? of the country, notably the Mis sissippi Valley problem brought [to the fore by the recent disas trous floods, lie has Just r* ,'turned from a trip to that region. rhe Haid. adding that the floods .were caused by abnormally heavy rainfall In much of the territory drained by tho MIsHisslppl. coupled with the stopping-lip of several of the outlets that former ly carried away much of tho im mense volume of water pouring to the sea through that grout riv er system. ? Mr. Bailey, speaking offhand, estimated that the problem of , properly (controlling the Missis sippi might conceivably entail the expenditure of a billion and a half dollars. "But that would be better than losing three or four states," he commented. "It's not la question of how much we can I afford to spend. It's rather a problem of how much we muit spend." With referonce lo the pending proposal for a groat waterway roughly to parallel tho St. Law rence Blvcr, and thereby provide a better navigation outlet for the Croat Lakes region, Mr. Bailey stated that that had been ap proved both In Canada and the United States, and that the main problem ahead was in the matter of working out a satisfactory ar rangement to finance It. Much Increased traffic through the Inland Waterway System along the South Atlantic coast should result from the completion of the Norfolk to Beaufort link, Mr. Bailey said, and there should be still greater traffic when oth er projects farther South have been consummated, mentioning the Wilmington to Charleston sector, and a canal along the Florida coast, formerly owned privately and recently taken over by the State with a view to turn ing it over to the Federal Govern ment.
