President Favors The Boulder Dam
Last Message to Congress Recommends Passage of Bill
In what probably will be his valedictory address to congress, President Coolidge emphasized once more his desire for an increase in America's naval strength, urged a farm relief program which would meet approval of the administration, made suggestions for legislation covering the most important subjects, and ended by declaring the nation was in an era of prosperity and peace such as never before had been experienced.
For farm relief, Coolidge reiterated his suggestion for the creation of a federal farm board in order that the government might aid in promoting orderly marketing and in handling surpluses clearly due to weather and seasonal conditions. He suggested a revolving fund from government money, until producers' associations had erected stabilizing organizations to finance themselves through regular credit institutions.
"Temporary experiences," he said, "though sometimes capable of appeasing demands of the moment, cannot per manently solve the surplus problem and might seriously aggravate it. Hence putting the government directly into business, subsidies and price fixing, and the alluring promises of political action as a substitute for private MORE initiative, should be avoided."
Following the lines of his Armistice Day speech, the President's message repeated his desire for passage of the fifteen-cruiser bill now pending in the senate.
"The bill before the senate with the elimination of the time caluse should be passed," he said, referring to the section which provides that the ships must be laid down within three years.
"I wish to repeat again for the benefit of the timid and the suspicious," said the President, "that this country is neither militaristic nor imperialistic."
"Many people at home and abroad, who constantly make this charge, are might be needed for that purpose." He opposed building another dam at public expense, saying future operators should provide for that themselves.
"But if they were to be required to repay the cost of such dam, with the prevailing commercial rate of interest, this difficulty will be considerably lessened," he said.
Reviewing the efforts of the administration to economize in public expenditures, the President declared that instead of a deficit of $94,000,000 which was expected last June for the current fiscal year, "the combination of economy and good times, now indicates a surplus of about $37,000,000." He said, however, that there would be no large enough surplus for further tax reduction.
The flood control, irrigation and domestic water purposes of the Boulder Canyon dam project are phases into which the government could extend its functions, he said.
Addressing himself to the wage earner, Mr. Coolidge enunciated the doctrine of production as the only limit to profit and wages.
"In its economic life," he said, "our country has rejected the long accepted law of a limitation of the wage fund, which led to pessimism and despair because it was the doctrine of perpetual poverty, and has substituted for it the American conception that the only limit to profits and wages is production, which is the doctrine of optimism and hope because it leads to prosperity.
"In the foreign field there is peace, the good will that comes from mutual understanding, and the knowledge that the problems which a short time ago appeared so ominous are yielding to the touch of manifest friendship," he said.
The relations between the United States and Nicaragua, Chili, Peru, Mexico and China were death with separately by the President, who also, in his discussion of foreign affairs praised the purport of the ellog treaty to outlaw war. There was no mention of American adherence to the world court.
The message was concluded with a plea to the people to remember that in times of prosperity unremitting toll is necessary to keep what has been gained:
"The country," Coolidge said, "is in God is the justification in our continuing success. Under the plan, crop land be handled by the corporate loans from the federal loss would be paid from the United States.
Upon request of the marketing associations handling any perishable commodity, the board wished to assist in form house association for minimizing losses in one of the commodity and equitable distribution markets.
Fighting to Save California
Renewal of the fight sardines of California poses looms with the frenzied four Monterey oceans granting of a temporary order requiring those plants in reduction plans Judge H. G. Jorgensen county.
The suits were filed by people of California upon gene D. Bennett, executive attorney of the State Department commission, whose orders the canners violated.

"I wish to repeat again for the benefit of the timid and the suspicious," said the President, "that this country is neither militaristic nor imperialistic.
"Many people at home and abroad, who constantly make this charge, are the same ones who are even more solicitous to have us extend assistance to foreign countries. When such assistance is granted, the inevitable result is that we have foreign interests."
"For us to refuse the customary support and protection of such interests would be in derogation of the sovereignty of this nation. Our largest foreign interests are in the British empire, France and Italy. Because we are constantly soliciteous for those interests, I doubt if anyone would suppose that those countries feel we harbor toward them any militaristic or imperialistic design.
"As for smaller countries, we certainly do not want any of them. We are more anxious than they are to have their sovereignty respected. Our entire influence is in behalf of their independence. Cuba stands as a witness to our adherence to this principle."
In connection with Muscle Shoals, President Coolidge suggested a division of the property into "its two component parts of power and nitrate plants" by which it would be possible to "dispose of the power, reserving the right to any concern that wished to make nitrates to use any power that

The message was concluded with a plea to the people to remember that in times of prosperity unremitting toll is necessary to keep what has been gained:
"The country," Coolidge said, "is in the midst of an era of prosperity more extensive and of peace more permanent than it has ever before experienced. But, having reached this position, we should not fail to comprehend that it can easily be lost. It needs more effort for its support than the less exalted places of the world. We shall not be permitted to take our ease, but shall continue to be required to spend our days in unremitting toll.
"The actions of the government must command the confidence of the country. Without this, our prosperity would be lost. We must extend to other countries the largest measure of generosity, moderation and patience. In addition to dealing justly, we can well afford to walk humbly.
"The end of government is to keep open the opportunity for a more abundant life. Peace and prosperity are not finanities; they are only methods. It is too easy under their influence for a nation to become selfish and degenerate. This test has come to the United States. Our country has been provided with the resources with which it can enlarge its intellectual, moral and spiritual life. The issue is in the hands of the people. Our faith in man and department requires that one-pound oval cans, or or the equivalent if they are used, be packed in sardines brought into it.

Under the plan, crop surpluses would be handled by the corporations through loans from the federal board but no loss would be paid from the treasury of the United States.
Upon request of the co-operative marketing associations and producers handling any perishable agricultural commodity, the board would be authorized to assist in forming a clearing house association for the purpose of minimizing losses in the distribution of the commodity and of providing equitable distribution among various markets.
Fighting to Save California Sardines
Renewal of the fight to save the sardines of California for food purposes looms with the filing of suits to join four Monterey canners, and the granting of a temporary restraining order requiring those affected to use 25 per cent of the capacity of their plants in reduction plants by Superior Judge H. G. Jorgensen of Monterey county.
The suits were filed on behalf of the people of California upon order of Eugene D. Bennett, executive officer and attorney of the State Fish and Game commission, whose order, it is alleged, the canners violated.
Those restrained include: Monterey Canning company, San Carlos Canning company, Carmel Canning company and the Sea Pride Canning company.
The Fish and Game commission in exercising supervision over these canneries through its commercial fisheries department requires that 15 cases of one-pound oval cans, (48 to the case) or the equivalent if other sized cans are used, be packed for each ton of sardines brought into the plants.
It is charged that the four mentioned violated this order during the months of August, September and October with shortages in the following amounts: Monterey, 11,918; Carmel, 16,225; San Carlos, 6064, and Eca Pride, 8206.
In a second count against the canners it is alleged that during the months named the canners reduced in their reduction plants more sardines than the 25 per cent of the determined functions were as follows:

NOTICE INVITING SEALED PROPOSALS FOR CONCRETE PAVING
Notice is hereby given that sealed proposals will be received by the City of Anaheim, at the office of the City Clerk of said City, up to the hour of eight o'clock P.M. of Thursday, the 27th day of December, 1928, for the furnishing of all labor and material required for the construction of approximately 5000 square feet of Portland cement concrete pavement on East Center Street, adjacent to the tracks of the Santa Fe Railway, in said city.

It is charged that the four mentioned violated this order during the months of August, September and October with shortages in the following amounts: Monterey, 11,918; Carmel, 16,225; San Carlos, 6064, and Eca Pride, 8206.
In a second count against the canners it is alleged that during the months named the canners reduced in their reduction plants more sardines than the 25 per cent of the determined capacity of their plants as required by law.
In discussing the case, Mr. Bennett declared that investigation shows that sardines are none too plentiful and it is essential that waste be prevented. Therefore, it is self evident that the Fish and Game commission must use every effort to see that sardines are packed for food purposes. He further states that every effort has been made to secure the co-operation of the canners in this campaign to prevent waste, and that most of them had shown a willingness and determination to cooperate. It was not until every effort to secure the same co-operation and compliance with the law from the four operators mentioned had failed that the injunction suits were filed, he explained.
It was further explained by officials of the commission that the 25 per cent allowed for use in reduction plants was a fair allowance, determined after practical and scientific investigation had been made, to permit the canners to take care of waste and fish offal.
It was also explained that the canners in their contracts with fishermen reserve the right to reject all fish not fit for canning.

Many accounts of the peculiar effects of the high temperature of Death Valley upon humans and their property are given. It is said that there are instances of men going raving mad, and of their dying from thirst with plenty of water in their possession. This is explained as due to the fact that the body is not able to handle ingested water quickly enough to cause perspiration and thus reduce body temperature.
State Government Increases Expenses
It cost the state of California $91,812,-716.74 to operate the various branches of its state government for the last fiscal year, according to a statement made by State Controller Ray L. Riley.
This represents an increase of more than $4,000,000 over the cost for the preceding year.
Education costs, which included the state department of education, elementary and high schools, junior colleges and the various state teachers' colleges, totaled $33,782,506.65, or an increase of $2,370,185 over the preceding year.
