Coolidge was crawling back to Washington today aboard a slow train. By the time the presidential party reaches the capital at 8 o'clock tonight, 22 hours will have elapsed since the departure from Chicago, against an 18-hour trip westward. Mr. Coolidge, however, needs the rest. During the short time he spent in Chicago, he crowded in two speeches, a luncheon and a dinner, an inspection of the International Livestock Show and a series of conferences with western industrial and political leaders. The precedent of the traveling aboard a regular passenger train is being observed scrupulously on the return trip. The president and Mrs. Coolidge are again occupying a drawing room instead of special car, and breakfast this morning was eaten in the public diner along with the other east bound passengers. The president has left behind him in Chicago perhaps the clearest enunciation of his agricultural policies that he has made during his entire tenure of office. The two speeches delivered at the Commercial club luncheon, and the Livestock Exposition outlined in fullest detail the president's reactions to the problems of the farmer. A most optimistic outlook was voiced by Mr. Coolidge in pledging the support of the administration to the agricultural interests.

"I think I'm going," the young man had whispered in his last moment of consciousness. "If only we could have been married first." McClintock's sobriquet, "the millionaire orphan," came when his parents died, two years apart, leaving him when aged seven with SANTA CLAUS, after he a Chevrolet sedan alight yesterday, when good chance to see whet boys and girls were themselves, received letters, telling him they wanted.
