Biography

Calvin Coolidge was a Massachusetts Republican who rose from city councillor to governor. He won national fame in 1919 when, as governor, he broke the Boston police strike, declaring that there was no right to strike against public safety.

He was elected vice president in 1920 and became president when Warren Harding died in August 1923. He won a full term in 1924. A believer in small government, he cut taxes and federal spending and vetoed farm relief bills, and his presidency coincided with the economic boom of the mid-1920s.

He signed the Immigration Act of 1924 and the Indian Citizenship Act, and his administration negotiated the Kellogg-Briand Pact. He chose not to run in 1928 and died in 1933.
