ROOSEVELT WORRIES SAME AS ALLNAVY MOTHERS WASHINGTON, Nov. 14. — Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt disclosed t0- | day that she has a worry in common with other mothers with sons in the Navy. Franklin D. Roosevelt, Jr., a naval ensign, is on a destroyer “somewhere on the Atlantic,” she said at her press conference when asked if she knew his whereabouts. The last time she heard from him was about ten days ago when he was at the White House A reporter asked whether she and Mrs. Franklin Roosevelt, Jr., had any special means of communicat= ing with the President’s son. Mrs. Roosevelt replied that both she and his wife wrote Franklin, Jr. care of the New York postmaster just like the members of other naval families. But one thing Franklin does do whenever he is on land, she said, is to call home by long distance tele- phone. BUY. DEFENSE STAMPS ..
