in june of 1895, calvin graduated from amherst. in summary, calvin's upbringing and small america grounded him with many fundament values, which would serve as an excellent foundation for the rest of his life. the importance of ethics strong character self-sufficiency. pairing for others, having trust in others and community service were among some of these values. calvin reflected on his youth in his autobiography country, life not always have breadth, but it does have depth. it is neither artificial nor superficial but is kept close to the realities. i can think of many pleasures. we did not have in many nicest niceties of culture which we were unfamiliar with. yet if i had the power to order my life anew, i would not dare to change that period it if it did not afford me the best that there was and abundantly provided the best that there was for me. thank you. thanks. chris will now hear from adler, professor and chair of the classics department at the university of maryland. eric, thank you very much. in a speech delivered in 19

so as custodians of the calvin coolidge presidential collection, we were delighted that the calvin coolidgepresidential foundation agreed to hold their centennial celebration here at the library and we are delighted for another reason as well. library. these are places to seek what you and to encounter perspectives that challenge you precisely. they're different than the ones you hold. libraries are about sparking conversation and making connections about agreement and dissent about and civility. so for all these reasons we are pleased to welcome the calvin coolidge presidential and all of you for what promises to be a very stimulating and thought provoking symposium on nation's 30th president calvin coolidge. so thank you and welcome. and i have the honor of inviting senator welch to the stage. thank you, ma'am. i am really thrilled to be here. i live very close to plymouth notch and i'm going to brag about that for a minute. and i want all you to come up. but i am from vermont. windsor county is where? plymouth. natchez. and if you just go route four through woodstock and to bridgewater c

and that was the portrait of calvin coolidge. and i must tell you, my love for calvin dates back to my youth and my study of history, but it was greatly enlivened by the epic biography by amity shlaes. i believe her book perfectly captures silent kell's character, his personality, and his philosophy. he, in fact, when i was vice president, there's a small library of works about and by vice presidents that's in the library at the naval observatory. and i remember one sunny sunday when i had a few moments after church to grab a book, and i pulled calvin coolidge, his autobiography off the shelf, first edition, and sat down and read it in an afternoon. and i want to thank the coolidge foundation for putting calvin coolidge, his autobiography, back in print and available for every american in. amity. your words about him, his words in a book much shorter than my book. a lot shorter than my book. evidence of his brevity and economy of words or my lack of. inspired me greatly. and i've been inspired since by his humility, his principle

i tended to side with calvin's more than an calvin. more than his father. but but yeah, it was there. reading adam seaver. yeah. i don't need to. hi. my name is sophie share. i'm from north carolina, so a lot today. i really enjoyed hearing about sort of the values that made calvin coolidge and the founders so as stewards our nation. but a lot of times you've talked about how those values are becoming incompatible with our modern society and modern political stage. how would you propose that we as the upcoming generation of leaders integrate these core values of our most prominent founders and their successors into a increasingly modern and changing world, bring some of those values into world as we come into leadership. hmm. the i'll make a general comment just as a, as framing the answer, which the others will actually give. i think part of it is going back to this question about good reading and why coolidge is important in lincoln. what we have to understand the distinction here and when we use the word values, we are talking things that i value or you

another demonstration of the character of calvin coolidge. by the way, harry was eventually elected mayor of northampton. although slightly exaggerated elected public life be divided, in my view, in two categories policy, development and service. the presidency on the policy development side of that distinction with the mayoralty being primarily on the service delivery side of the ledger, governors fall somewhere in between that scale. but i'll that discussion to overall two others. well mayor coolidge showed himself to be a very effective executive demonstrating trait traits that a national audience would later in his career. he was careful with the management of public funds when land from the town was sold to neighboring holyoke. he invested those funds for the future benefit of his constituent base to attract and retain good teachers. he raised teachers. he refused to go along with those who proposed building a new city hall because of its cost. and he fought against mandates from the state legislature, which sought to assume control over

calvin coolidge voted in favor of women's suffrage. in fact, coolidge became president of the massachusetts senate when the incumbent president of the senate lost his reelection because of his opposition to women's suffrage. unlike coolidge, woodrow wilson had opposed women's suffrage, even at the state level. not only in 1907, but years later as governor of new jersey and as president. wilson did not support women's suffrage at the state level until 1915, by which time susan b anthony was ten years in the grave, dying at age 86. and wilson didn't drop his opposition to the susan v anthony amendment until the final years of his second term in the white house. the fact that wilson opposed women's suffrage while coolidge supported it, highlights an important distinction. wilson's brand of progressivism came to define the movement, but he and many of the progressives that he appointed to his cabinet and his government did not include women's rights in their definition of progressive, nor did they include civil rights for americans. most p

was it the fact that calvin coolidge was absolute tax cutting? no. the secret glue, the harding and coolidge consistency was andrew mellon at treasury, the first among equals of wilson holdovers was a guy named parker gilbert, been a partner at jp morgan, joined the treasury to work on the war bond issue and at age 30 became the under of the treasury and became the top person to implement mellon scientific tax reform. and he stayed on to help guide that between the harding and the coolidge administrations. and we talked about the crushing war debt, but i mean, the u.s. cost. i love this one. uncle sam with us, expensive, crushing him and you got calvin coolidge say lots more to come off unnecessary expenses great berryman cartoon but what was the really struggle was fact that the interest carey on the debt was $1 billion more than entire pre-war budget just interest. so mellon was going to lead this charge you've talked about the budget in the previous so he wanted to focus revenues and of course the income tax was ten years old in those. 1920s and b

that was calvin coolidge. and so i think for the benefit of the 20th century, we got an interpretation of that act, which was much conservative and, operational then than a progressive vision would. i don't know. i may be wrong on that now back to your point. so do need to take a look at the 74 act. and we have you know the 2011 act with the deficit reduction act, which builds on that and other which is connected to it, to put all of that together and say what, can we do to resurrect a system that orderly budgets and you know, let the politicians decide whether or not we're left leaning or right leaning or center country, but at least put regular budgeting back back in place, in which case you must have shared power. the congress needs to congress is the is the first body mentioned the constitution for good reasons. it's the control of the person controlled spending at modern presidency has to be strong enough to withstand the buffeting of priorities and the tremendous tensions which come come by being such a

is that what calvin coolidge would have said about these talking about. well, that's a good question susan the republican platform. i recently bought a copy of it from 1920 actually was called the republican textbook. here five ritz crackers thick more than an inch. it's you know, because i had some rich next to it. so the republicans of 1920 who were the ones who were going back to the center with the 60% reasonables that that larry was describing. they wrote it all out in a book and then they slapped the candidates pictures on the cover, but the candidates were less important than the platform and that was extremely useful when president one wiped out as i said in president two had to come in. he had a playbook he was so so i think for for both parties if that's what you're asking platform should come first. and it doesn't for both it's about personality because that's tv, but in that that leads to incredible disappointment in the electorate, i want to say one of the things which is sometimes events happen. i mean i wouldn't have considered margaret tha

native people lead on a different, i might argue, for calvin coolidge to.ecause 1924, by 1924, even though the citizenship act was passed, two thirds of the indian population were already u.s. citizens. so that only means like the third hour we come system by that overall legislation, that legislation. okay, now we have two individuals who are asking a very similar question, we have an anonymous attendee and karen, who is in bowie, maryland. can you speak to the current u.s. policy regarding native people, not just the current administration, say the past 20 years and are anonymous questioners? please explain the present legal situation of native american communities. it's very similar. well, look, and that's well, let me just kind of reiterate that the prevailing indian policy can stop extermination and. form of it really of develop it. clinton pushed long president clinton really promoted a government to government bringing native people and their government to government leaders, to the white house. and so you have that really kind of a partnership. and
