Calvin Coolidge actually said...

"Our Government has taken an attitude on that which I do not think will be changed."

"I have a good deal of respect for Mr. Baker's judgment and a high regard for his patriotism, but the matter of settlement or cancellation of our debts has been discussed a great many times."

"So, as far as I am informed, I know of no reason for making any change in our policy."

"I didn't see Mr. Brush's article or interview or whatever it may have been relative to foreign debts."
