JULY 26, 1929

‘NEW COOLIDGE IS JOLLY GOOD FELLOW NOW! Silent No Longer, Laughs, Wisecracks in Talk With Reporters. B'J Serwot-Woierird .Yet xspnprr AHianec WASHINGTON, July 26—Calvin Coolidge stood behind his 'uite table, laughed, during a fifteen-min-ute. self-conducted interview and wise-cracked in a manner that would have done credit to Mayor Jimmie Walker of New York, on his visit ro Washington Wednesday, Seventy Washington correspondents who thought they knew the silent and stern Coolidge stared into each other's eyes and blinked. For the first five minutes of the flow of personal and home-town gossip they were dumfounded. They howed it in the self-conscious .shuffling of their feet. Then, convinced that this really was Calvin Coolidge—the man they t nought they knew—they surrenered themselves unconditionally to his personality and his obvious desire—but not too obvious—to be a good fellow with the gang he used to know.

Appearance the Same. He had not changed in appearance. Frock coat, black trousers with barely discernible stripe, black tie with tiny pearl stickpin, thin gold watch chain. One other reminiscence there was of old, familiar days. He showed that economy was personal and private with him as well as official. His slender cigar was burned almost to the tip of his ivory holder as the group entered the room. He remained comfortably, legs crossed, in his big armchair while they paraded past him. New Coolidge. Then the new, the changed, the effervescent Coolidge arose, shook out his trouser legs and talked for fifteen minutes. Nobody interrupted. He did not give them a chance. “I thought it would be a good Idea to see you while I was here,” he began. ‘T wanted to see you personally, but it occurred to me some of you might want to see me professionally.” This revealed that he still considers himself a “public character,” as he later admitted. But there was no ostentatiousness in his admission that he had sponsored the “interview.” It was as if he recognized his public's demand and bowed to it. “It is always a pleasure to see such old friends,” he continued. I want to think the White House correspondents’ Association for sending me birthday greetings. It is good to see you again, but a great relief not to have any official responsibility. Makes Jokes. “I suppose you want to know what I’m doing. Well, I’ve been writing. You can read it if you want to. I’ve read lots of your stuff." This sally brought roars of laughter. “I've done some fishing. I guess I've caught 200 speckled trout this spring. But I won't tell you what the size was. “Mrs. Colidge would have been delighted to come with me to see you, but she can't leave Mrs. Goodhue, her mother, who is very ill.” Dropping into a sombre note, he said he expected to receive word almost any moment that Mrs. Goodhue had “passed away.” There was no riticence in the man. but his frankness was that of a friend who has been away on a journey and feels a compulsion to tell all the news.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

BISHOP TELLS OF POPE’S TRIP FROMVATICAN Outstanding Event in Church History, Newark Prelate Asserts. Bishop Walsh of Newark. N. J., in the following article written exclusively for the United Press and The Times describes the emergence of Pope Pius from the Vatican as one of the most outstanding events in the history of the Catholic church. BY THE REV. THOMAS J. WALSH Bishop of Newark, N. J. (Written for the United Press) ROME, July 26.—The entry of the head of the Roman Catholic church before the world is perhaps the most impressive event of the last two centuries. It may even be considered in some of its aspects as one of the most outstanding events in the history of the church, especially as it was expressed in fervor by both the people and the clergy of the hierarchy. There were seminarists, priests, bishops and archbishops of every rite and from every part of the w’orld, giving a living picture of the university of the mother church, representing it from top to bottom. There was a universal response, w’hich was all the more emphasized because among the 200,000 suols present there was an unanimity in acclaim and thanksgiving from the most humble to the highest dignitaries of the church. There was a profound devotion surrounding the benediction. When the clarion trumpets sounded that the blessed sacrament was about to be raised over the people who were

gathered in the square of St. Peter’s, it was a signal that the blessing was for the whole world. This blessing, given through the instrumentality of the supreme head of the church, was a living symbol of the universal propagation of the faith to the farthest ends of the earth. There was a profound unity in the adoration and there was not only an expression of sincere, sublime faith in the real presence of the invisible head of the church, but it also showed a convincing proof of the loyalty and faith to the person of Pius XI, vicar of Christ on earth.
