N. S. Staff Correspondent) WASHINGTON, Dec. 7.—President Coolidge platform for 1924, on which he has staked in large measure his political future, was before the country today and his formal avowal of candidacy will be forthcoming shortly, perhaps within a week. His message to congress is his platform, and selection by the South Dakota preference convention gives him the opportunity to declare himself while the imprint of his recommendations on a score of outstanding issues is still fresh in the minds of the people. Unless present plans are changed, the president, within a few days, will write a letter to his supporters in South Dakota giving them now carefully needed assurances that he will be a candidate in 1924. The White House had its car cocked to the westward today to catch the recitation to the president's utterances. Comment in Washington occasioned little surprise—the Republican conservatives approved, the Republican progressives disapproved, and the Democrats roundly attacked the message as a capitulation to "big business." This was expected. Now the White House wants to hear from the country. Editorial comment from newspapers, big and small, from all parts of the country, was telegraphed to Washington today and subjected to microscopic analysis of the president's political advisers. On the whole, they announced themselves as pleased.

Suit was brought by her husband, Robert C. Boyd, to reseal a deed he had made in her favor while he was living at Columbus, Ohio.

The civic warfare, now raging here, gained momentum today while members of the Wampus, officially known as the Western Motion Picture Advertisers, sent a delegation to San Francisco to arrange details for the annual frollec to be held in the northern city early next year. A split in the ministerial association appeared imminent today when several members of the organization announced their opposition to the tactics pursued by their president, "Rev. Bob" Schuler.

The threatened existence of Santa Claus entered the controversy when it was discovered there is an anti-mask city ordinance.

LOUIS, Dec. 7. Five masked bandits with sawed-off shotguns were frustrated today in their plan of a million dollar holdup by a shower of bullets and an automobile collision, when they swooped down on an American Express Company horsedrawn truck near the downtown section, which was conveying a money consignment to a bank. The bandits got the drop on the guards and driver and had secured two bags of money, containing about $3200, when one of the guards jumped off the truck, ducked around a corner and opened fire. In the gun fight that followed, and in which the remaining guards joined the bandits sought to escape in a big automobile. A bullet apparently struck the driver and the machine crashed into a car parked at the curb. The bandits abandoned the wrecked car, leaving behind all their loot and their shotguns. Pedestrians joined in the pursuit but the holdups escaped. Bank officials believed that the express shipments were valued at more than a million dollars. Senator King of Utah is the father of twins.
