When Franklin Roosevelt became President of the U. S. last year, Grace Goodhue Coolidge said: "We have cast aside political and sectional interest in a spirit of cooperation with our President and believe this spirit emanates from the whole people." Until last week that was the only political pronouncement the grey-eyed, gracious widow of Calvin Coolidge had made since his death. Last week before 1,500 applauding Massachusetts Republicans she appeared at Heaton Hall in swank Stockbridge to eulogize and hearten her State's Republican candidates, to predict for them a sweeping victory in next month's elections.

Occasion was the G. O. P. lunch which Massachusetts' earnest, broad-beamed Congressman Allen Towner Treadway gives before every biennial election. Mrs. Coolidge affirmed her affection for the State her husband loved, declared it had always found Republican administrations sound, nonpartisan, just. Said she:

"It is a long time since I have attended one of Congressman Treadway's delightful luncheons. I little knew as I traveled from Northampton how grand it would be to be with you and know how faithfully you are working to elect the splendid men on our Republican ticket. ... I know that on election day the sun will shine on our great State as the Republicans come back into power."
