The President was said to have discussed, last week, with Mrs. Coolidge the pros and cons of visiting the scene of this Chippewa legend. ¶With newsmen, the President's only weighty discussion concerned the Kellogg multilateral treaty. While no longer permitting newsmen to speak of him as a mere "spokesman" for himself, the President still refuses to be quoted directly, thus making it easier for him to deny anything which newsmen...
