"The Republican party has given to the country an Ideal presidential ticket." HUNT'S 1WASHNGTON CAL'S GOING INTO MOVIES SPEAKING By Harry B. Hunt, Nea Service Writer.

WASHINGTON, June new national movie star is to be featured on the screen of American theatres this summer. 'He's no handsome matinee Idol. Neither is he a stalwart, dashing Bgure from the plains. The role in which he will be cast IB neither one of love nor ot adventure. will picture the, part of a quiet, plodding, earnest, every-day sort ot individual serious-minded, conscientious, un- rframatic life of the average American who recognizes that to live Is to labor and who accepts the bur- flents of existence without protest, seeking to solve his own problems tor himself, not asking that society Solve them tor him.

Perhaps you've already guessed his Identity. Yes; this new star to be featured in the films is none other than Calvin Coolldge the "calm and courageous candidate of the Celevland convention!" Coblidge's campaign managers Intend that every movie-goer In the States shall feel a personal with, and interest in, their candidate before election day next November. They believe that his "New England face" and his "New England qualities," as they can be portriyed In the movies, will be a tremendous assrt In assisting Ijis election. His very grimness, his Puritanic severity of countenance, bis taciturnity and his disregard of, if not his actual contempt for, the pleasures and the soft, things of life, as they will be presented through the movies, are expected to klnrtla a feeling that, he represents a return to the type of Americanism and Ideals on which tr.is nation was founded. And this appeal, his backers bo- llftve, will be far more effective In winning support from thft great mass of movie-going voters than nny other sort of claim that can be midB for any other candidate.

No such elaborate program of press-agenting ever was built up to pupulariza a theatrical star as is planned to "get. across" the character of Coolidge.
