WASHINGTON, Aug. 15.-A “gov-
ernment of common sense," dedi-
cated to honesty and economy at
home and peace abroad., was prom-
ised tonight by President Cool-
idge in formally accepting the
nomination of the Republican party
as Its candidate for president.
Declaring domestic affairs of
chief concern to the nation, Mr.
Coolidge proposed further tax re-
duction and "more tax reform" and
announced his intention to appoint
a committee to investigate means
of aiding agriculture.
He summed up the foreign policy
of the administration in a single
word—pence—end promised to pro-
pose after the Dawes reparation
plan gets under way, another con-
ference to consider further limita-
tin of armaments and codification
udy international law. )
‘"Addressing Thimselt to possible
opposition party issues, Mr. Cool-
idge referred to the question of
honest government and replied that
“the government la sound" and
“without throwing all our economic
system into confusion, we can raise
or lower specific schedules to meet
the requirements of a scientific ad-
justment."
Foreign Affairs.
In foreign affairs, Mr. Coolidge
described the ' administration as
seeking only peace-—through ef-
forts by the Dawee commission is
bottling the reparations problem,
establishment of many treaties and
Booking entrance in the permanent
court of international justice. He
called attention to the rbfu.nl of
ratification of the League of Na-
tions covenant, but recalled coop-
eration by the government with the
league In suppressing the narcotic
trade and promoting public health.
“We have every desire to help."
he added, "but the time, the place
and the method must be left to our
determination. Under our consti-
tution we cennot foreclose .the right
of-the president or the congress to
determine our future problems
when they arise.’' •

spokesman of the Cleveland conven-
tion, Frank W. Mondell formally
notified President Coolidge that his
selection for the presidency had re-
sulted from "the choice of the peo-r
ple, freely and emphatically ex-
pressed."
The nominating convention, Mr.
Mondell declared, was only a “ratifi-
cation" moating, and he predicted
Recalling the disclosures in con-
nection with the naval oil reserve
leases, Mr. Coolidge reiterated his
determination to “use every possi-1 that tbs will of ths Individual voters
ble effort to resist corruption in
office." .
“Ths American government must
be clean,” he said. "Ths laws of
tho land are being, and will con-
tinue to be, enforced. -The govern-
ment is sound. Individuals charged
with wrong doing are being prose-
outed. The people of this country
hate corruption. They know my
position. They know the law will
be enforced.”
Mr. Coolidge served notice on the
party to live within its means dur-
ing the present campaign and to
cooperate wtih the senate commit-
tee in detailing the lists of Its ex-
penditures.
He also plainly told the party
that “no individual or group of In-
dividuals may expect any govern-
mental favors in return for party
assistance."
For National Defense.
Taking up only briefly the ques-
. tion of national defense, the presi-
dent declared hs favored "not mere-
ly talking about it, but doing some-
thing sbout It."
In a recital of the government's
accomplishments since March 4.
1921, Mr. Coplidge mentioned the
arms conference, the restoration of
a technical state of peace, the ne-
gotiation. Of treaties with many
countries, repeal of wartime taxes,
funding of a large part of the for-
eign debt, improvement in employ-
ment conditions, enhancement of
. the prices of government bonds, re-
duction of ths cost of government,
establishment of the budget, immi-
gration reform, reduction of the
army and navy to a “low peace time
basis," conversion of war materials
and supplies into cash, increase in
wages, a revival of industry, estab-
lishment of the veterans' bureau,'
enactment of “generous” laws for
the relief of disabled veterans and
establishment of a tariff act.
again would be recorded emphatic
cally in November in favor of Mr.
Coolidge's retention in the White
House. *
"You were given your commission
of leadership,’' he said, “under con-
ditions that left no wounds to heal
or differences to compromise, that
held no taint or self-seeking or of
questionable endorsement end sup-
sport.
"The platform adopted at Cleve-
land by practically unanimous vote,
in frank and courageous fashion
declared the party faith and outlines
the party purpose, and we anticipate
with pleasure end confidence your
interpretation of thst faith and pur-
pose as applied to present problems
and conditions.”
