SWAle'SC‘O'IU‘. Mimi-1., Aug, flip——
(AR) President. (,‘oolidgc has begun
another Week of vacation. with pros-
upcels lhut it will he the moat quiet
he l'lllS enjoyed since his nrrhul in
June. lie plans to continue his prac-
tice of conferring from time to time
with high government officials and
congressional leaders but few ap-
pointments have been mode for this
week and it is likely to be compar-
atively free of ongngemcnt.
The president will start tomorrow
on the tenth week oi! his vacation.
Thus far there have been no indlcn-
tlons us to when he will return to
Washington, although there is a.
strong possibility that he will re-
main here until after labor day.
The impending tie up of anthra-
cite mines. scheduled for o. week
trom todny as It result of the failure
of miners and operators to agree on
a. new wage. scale, is not likely to
have any effect on Mr. Coolidge's va-
cation plans. it is understood he does
not consider that suspension of Op-
eraiions would h? nny way necessi-
tate his return to the capital, as he
is determined, for the present. at
least, to maintain a bonds-off policy.
So for us the varied governmental
activities are concerned Mr. Cool-
idge is receiving regular, reports
from dcpurtmentul heads. has plenty
of time to consider them leisurely
and is supplementing them with con-
i'erenccs at intervals with cabinet of.
