Coolidge Ignores Kluxer Invitation and Protests
Swampscott July reports say President Coolidge will ignore Kluxer invitation and protests about addressing a Washington assembly. Sherrill letter to the White House spurs Klansmen, while the president pursues a 1920 stance of avoiding public views on the order. Rum-runner diversions near White Court entertain the president as officials tighten patrols. Calvin Coolidge and Mrs. Coolidge, mourning their younger son, stay secluded at the summer White House as plans unfold for Plymouth and Vermont trips and a key Massachusetts district vacancy vote.
