PAUL SIITBA-N. 1.. Aug. 8.—
The sovereignty of the states which
go to make up the nation, was held
up as a source of great strength to
the Federal government by President
Coolidge today in an address by ra-
dio to exercise at Denver celebrating
the aemi-oentenial of Colorado's ad-
mission to statehood.
Speaking into a telephone at his
vacation office. In Coolidge has his
words carried by long distance wires
to Denver for broadcasting throug
the other. the address being the fire
of any kind he has made since he
came to the Adirondacks nearly four
weeks ago.
Mr. Coolidge hailed Colorado as a
state that "always has been progres-
sive;" declared thatfshe stands out
like a' beacon in the history of wo.
man suffrage." an raised "the ma-
lesty of her scenery and "the won-
derful balm of her climate." yet he
asserted her "chief treasure was the
principle of local seit’ government."
"This celebration is exceedingly
appropriate at this time." he added.
“The nation is inclined to disregard
altogether to much both the functions
and the duties of the states. They
are much‘ more than sub-divisions of
the Federal government. They are
also endowed with sovereignty in
their own right. Of course. one of
their chief glories. lies in the fact
that they are all partakers of the
American spirit. all a part of the
American nation. but a great deal of
the strength of the Federal govem-
ment lies in the fact that the states
have the power to function locally
and independently. subject only to the
restrictions which they themselves
have invoked by adopting the na-
tional constitution.
“This 50th anniversary is in cele-
bration of that principle. It was 50
years ago that Colorado put off the
garb of a territory. almost exclusive.
ly under the dominion of the na-
tional government and put on the
robes of a sovereign American state.
The great progress that it has made
in these years. has been in no small
part due to the application of the
principle of local self government.
0! all the wealth and eminence that
this state has achieved, this is its
chief treasure. It ought to be main-
tained undlminished and, guarded
with Jealous care through all the
years to come."
The texts of the address follow:
“In order to hav a complete rc-
aiization of the go ius. the power.
and the spirit of our country. it is
necessary to study history of each
one of its 48 commonwealths. in no
way can the seeker of.the realities
of our national life be more richly
rewarded.
"Today our attention is fixed on
Colorado. which is observing the
50th anniversary of her entrance in.
to statehood. The whole nation takes
great pleasure in having a part in
your celebration. for all your sister
states are rejoicing in your remark-
able accomplishments.
In your story we find romance, ap.
peat to the imagination. striking a
cmplificatlon of untiring courage.
the pioneer spirit. the adaptability to
surroundings and of the ultimate
working out of a progressive civiliza—
tion. Well may the centennial state
be proud of her record. Her history
is associated with some of the im-
portant dates and figures of our na-
tidn. The same year brings her semi.
centennial and the assent-centennial
of thp United States—the 150th an-
niversary of the adoption of mono.
ciaration of Independence.
"It is related that Spanish explor-
ers in the middle of the 18th cen-
tury first set foot on the soil of what
is new Colorado, and that Escalante
visited there in 1110. But virtually
it remained an unknown area until
Lieutenant Zebulon M. Pike. of tha
United States Army. in 1806. dis.
covered the peak that became his
memorial. Ten years later, Major
Stephen H. long. also an army man
gave his name to another peak tow.
ering into the sky for more than
14,000 feet. Nowhere in theworld
does scenery surpass that of Colo-
rado. She has a mountainous area
six times that of Swltaeriand. Na.
turs wrought her with a lavish
hand. Long was followed by Dick
Wooten. Jim Barker. Kit Carson
and a. long list of for traders, and
by John C. Fremont. whose fifth ex-
pedition ended in 1858. '
“In 1858 came the discovery of
gold. that precious metal.‘_ which
from the beginning of time. has
been a lure for mankind. George
A. Jackson. of'Mlssouri. and J. 'H.
Gregory of Georgia, led the first
bands of hardy prospectors to the
Cherry Creek and the Platte gold
fields. The rush was on. The same
pluck and grit. the same abilitgto

those early settlers to push on un-
