Calvin Coolidge
Calvin Coolidge was the 30th president of the United States during the 1920's. He served in the white house for six years. He had no real dramatic accomplishments during his time as president. But he did lower taxes and debt in the US and kept the economy strong, growing, and stable. In 1920 when he was vice president and Warren G. Harding was president, Coolidge received word on Aug. 2, 1923 at 2:47 a.m. that president Harding had died. He left moments later to take up his duties as president.
But his journey was unsuccessful and unsteady. He retired in 1929 to Northampton, where he occupied his time writing newspaper and magazine articles. But thanks to his integrity and self possession, he retrieved public confidence in the white house. But 1924 was a sad year for Coolidge because in July his younger son, Calvin Jr. ll respected by Congress or his cabinet until he started prosecuting scandals that worked in the white house for the Harding Admin. He demanded and got efficient and economical performance in government operations. Politics was no longer of his natire. Coolidge was now well respected and received proper credit for the economic upturn.
