Calvin Coolidge actually said...

"I don't know of any developments regarding the [Potomac] bathing beach."

"I haven't had any report from the Tariff Commission on butter, or straw hats, or gold leaf."

"Congress enacted a law abolishing the bathing beach that was contemplated for colored people and abolished also the bathing beach that was in existence for the white people."

"I noticed most of the ladies had on silk dresses and I thought I saw a rather general display of silk stockings."
