National legislative scene opens as Coolidge speaks
The Sixty-eighth Congress begins with slow lawmaking as Republicans and progressives clash over rules. President Coolidge outlines foreign policy opposing League of Nations covenant ratification and supports a world court with reservations. He backs tax cuts, veterans care aims, farmer relief, and coal stability while opposing government ownership of mines.
