B88 North Da-; The Story of the Next White House Family The Rising Roosevelts (Copyright—NEA Service, Inc.) While the Rising Roosevelts were successively attending vari- ous schools, starting to make their own ways in the world, and getting married, their father's political triumph sent the fam- ily to still another home—the Executive Mansion in Albany. This is the 10th of a series of 12 articles about the colorful group. BY PAUL HARRISON When Franklin Roosevelt decided to make the 1928 race for governor of New York, thereby adding the ex- Jecutive mansion at Albany to the | family’s list of residences, everyone was surprised but Mrs. Roosevelt. She knew it was about time to move announcing that he was going direct- ly into business. Elliott says that his reason for not going to college was the certainty that athletics would dominate his scholastic career. He had been the outstanding ath- | Years of football and two years on the crew, six years on the tumbling | team, boxing, wrestling—that was his Groton record. At the Hun School the crew. He starred on the swim-| ming team; his backstroke time for 100 yards was 1:08; and the New York Athletic club was making over- tures for his services, Elliott liked athletics so well that he laterally didn’t dare go to college! | again; realized that her husband's limproved health and unabated am- bition would send them on again,| | and upward. | They already had gone from the! ncestral home at Hyde Park, N. Y.,| to Washington and to New York! ,; City, with periodic excursions to| 'Campobello, N. B. and Warm| | Springs, Ga. So now they moved to/ | Albany—with their next stop the| White House. The governor's mansion was not | quite the type of house they would j have selected had it not been in- ‘cluded with the job. Red brick, with | big semi-circular porch around the |front; more than a little gloomy | Within, and in need of some slight | vefurbishing. The grounds are rath- jer cramped, and there is a view of amily washings on tenement-hous? clotheslines. In the rear is an or- phanage. However, with the installation of | few Roosevelt children, a gross or more of the governor's beloved naval | prints and ship models, and a swim- | ming pool, the place was transform- jed into a fairly typical Roosevelt home.

J sions of the legislature, she planned a formal dinner for Thursday, Fri- | day or Saturday night. She kept) household accounts, maintained a large volume of correspondence, and dashed about visiting the children at | their schools. Anna was marri James was at Harvard, and in love; and the three | younger boys were in prep schools. ; Romance has wrought swift |transition in the daughter of the |family—from lady farmer to urban| housewife.

Here presides the headmaster and founder, the Rev. Endicott Peabody, D. D. He was advertising for pupils in the days when Franklin Delano Roosevelt was a “Grotie.” Today the school is so exclusive that new stu- dents are selected each year from lists on which they were registered at birth. Groton’s buildings, with their im- posing chapel tower, overlook the valley of the Nashua about a mile and a half west of the village of; Groton. The upper forms have their own studies; the four lower classes study at desks in large classrooms. For living quarters the boys have small, semi-private subicles, except the prefects, who are allotted sep- arate rooms. James Roosevelt was a senior pre- fect, a football star, and a poor stu- dent in Latin and Greek. Elliott, except for his general athletic prowess, achieved more notoriety than fame. The most difficult thing he ever did was argue in a school de- bate that the Democratic party cught to be abolished. The popular Franklin, Jr., is senior prefect now. John, in his fourth form, is making good grades and planning to go to Stanford in 1936. Groton boys are not allowed much liberty. The youngest Roosevelt sons were not even permitted to come to New York to congratulate their fath- er on his presidential victory.

Y.), with the assertion the fight against | unemployment still was a losing one. | “The most immediate danger con-' fronting the American people,” he told the senate, “is the spread of the| notion in some responsible quarters | that the relief probiem has been solved and that the scarcity of em- ployment is on the way to its auto- matic correction.” Assailing the administration of re- lief activities by the Reconstruction, Finance corporation, Wagner said “the | billions that congress provided have remained practically untouched—the | jobs which they were to create still! are locked up.” : | He proposed that the $300,000,000! limitation on direct relief loans be! eliminated; that $10,000,000 be allotte for “outright grant” to the states for | dealing with transient unemployed; | that power be taken from the recon-| struction finance board and given to| a special committee of three for de-| ciding upon relief loans; that the Jaw | be clarified to permit loans to states without the showing of approaching | bankruptcy; and that loans for self- liquidating projects be given to state: and municipalities for such projec! as are “economically sound.” | ‘Wagner also extended his criticism | to the treasury for its administration | of the public construction program. “It is a matter of record,” he said, | “that for two months the treasury re-| fused to permit the executive depart- ments to proceed with the execution; of the law. * * * the extent to which) the effort to undo the law was car- ried on became apparent when the) treasury department rendered the in- comprehensible and indefensible de- cision that the appropriation of $100,- | 000,000 for public buildings really meant only $90,000,000.” OPERA STAR TO RETIRE New York, Dec. 20.—(?)—Antonio Scotti, who knows what it is to be pelted with roses 12 whole minutes, also knows now what it is to be heart- broken.

Reed Monday afternoon had a telegram handed to him that created a temporary stir in the trial of Rial Dalton. Sent by a public official at Mo- hall, N. D., the message stated a man named John Dalton had died there Sunday night, and relatives were being sought. Thinking the man might be Jack Dalton, who escaped last summer from the state hospital for the insane at St. Peter, Judge Reed turned the telegram over to Dalton’s attor- ney. , Investigation revealed, however, the deceased was a man 87 years old who had lived in Mohall since 1900. North Dakota authorities still were looking for relatives Monday night. TO DEMAND BIG PERCENTAGE Moscow, Dec. 20.—(#)—The Tass (Russian) news agency correspond- ent at Teheran, Persia, reported Tuesday that the Bagdad newspaper Al Emol Arabi said that if the Per- sian government grants a new con- cession to the Anglo-Persian Oil company it intends to demand 25 per cent of income from wells. YEN TO MOSCOW Geneva, Dec. 20.—(P)—Dr. W. W. Yen, head of the Chinese delegation to the League of Nations, Tuesday was preparing to leave Geneva soon to assume his new post as Chinese ambassador at Moscow. His appoint- ment was announced after the recent resumption of diplomatic relations be- tween Soviet Russia and China. PRESERVE LAKES IN TURTLE MOUNTAINS, SAYS N. D. ENGINEER Kennedy Recommends Several Projects For Completion in Next Few Years An orderly program of construction in pi ive stages looking toward conservation of the Turtle Mountain lakes and embracing projects involv- ing an expenditure of approximately $25,000 in the next four or five years is recommended in the biennial re- port of State Engineer R. E. Ken- nedy. a Authority for an investigation to determine ways and means of con- serving lakes and streams of North Dakota was given the state engineer under a law enacted-by the last leg- islature. The engineer was empow- ered to “take such action as may be necessary to conserve the water levels and rehabilitating the streams, lakes and brooks in the Turtle Moun- tain region of North Dakota lying in Bottineau and Rolette counties,” and to do any and all acts necessary to bringing about such rehabilitation. Kennedy's recommendations in- clude: The establishment of a drainage canal from Rost and School Sections lakes to Lake Metigoshe. It should be constructed within the next two or three years. Construction of two dams, one creating Rost lake reservoir for Lake Metigoshe and one creating Wakopa reservoir for Lake Upsilon.

It should put the Turtle mountains in the first rank as one of North Dakota’s summer resorts, drawing from the entire northern half of the state.” Lacking scientific data in the Tur- tle Mountains on which to base run- off and evaporation estimates, the en- gineer's department has equipment for this purpose. A water stage staff and a weather buréau rain gage have been installed both at Lake Upsilon and Lake Metigoshe, the two lakes having the greatest present commercial development.
