MRS. ROOSEVELT " 'TACES BUSY DAY " Wil Receive More Than 2,000 Guests at White House After Inamgural. By the Associated Press. Eleancr Roosevelt, who as a girl and later as a young married woman watched two inaugurations from the side-lincs, today was a central figure in a third—one which placed her hus- band in office as the thirty-second Pres- | ident of the United States. For the next four years she will be mistress of the Nation’s most impor- tant household. Her profram today was filled with the sort of official engage- ments allotted to the wife of a Presi- dent. Receives at White House. Her most important task was to re- ceive ot the White House late today, after the inaugural parade, more than 2,000 guests, many of whom have traveled thousands of miles for today’s ceremonies. Although Mrs. Roosevelt's social ac- tivities were considerably curtailed be- cause of the death of Senator Thomas J. Walsh, who was to have been a member of her husband's cabinet, she decided to have the reception because many of those invited might not be able to visit Washington soon agaim She will go to the inaugural ball for @ short time tonight. too, because after it was announced that she would not attend, many tickets to the ball, a charity affair, were turned back. In making this decisicn she was influenced also to a great extent by members of the Walsh family, who insisted the Senator would not have wanted any of the festivities canceled in deference himself. Will Attend Services. Mrs. Roosevelt's crowded inaugural schedule called first for a service in the chapel of St. John's Episcopal Church. on Lafayette Square, acrcss from the White House, for the incoming President, his cabinet members, and his secretaries and their families. Next was the ride with Mrs. Hoover from the White House along Pennsyl- vania avenue to the Capitol. After that, the inauguration, the ride back to the White House, a family luncheon, &nd the inaugural parade. Tonight she will have cne unofficial engagement before proceeding to the inaugural ball. At the White House, the Roosevelts will entertain 72 of their relatives at a buffet supper. While the guests gasped in amaze- ment at her endurance and her good nature, Mrs. Roosevelt, smiling and unruffled, shook hands yesterday after- noon with nearly 1.000 women at a recepticn to which 300 had been invited. Chats With Mrs. Hoover. ‘Then, looking as fresh as though she were just leaving the hotel for the first time that day, she went off with her husband and her son and daughter-in- law, Mr. and Mrs. James Roosevelt, to have tea at the White House, which tomorrow is to become here home, and to chat quietly for an hour with Mrs. Hcover about Excmcs and camping. She ended the day between 9:30 and 10 pm. with the last of her weekly racio speeches. Even before Mrs. Roosevelt arrived, ue of fashionably dressed women bosun to form on the walk outside National Women's Democratic Club erday. By the time she had taken place in the recciving line with John N.

She then moved on to the Congres- sional Women's Club, v'here there was another big crowd, but she could not stay there so long, being obliged to hurry back to the Mayflower Hotel to ;’ccompuny her husband to the White ouse. G. A. R. HELD SHUNNED IN INAUGURAL PARADE Veteran Charges ‘“Humiliating Treetment” and Declares No Invitation Was Extended. By the Associated Press. “Humiliating treatment” of the Grand Army of the Republic by “the commit- tee responsible for the G. A. R. arrange- ments for the inaugural parade” was charged last night by John B. King, past commander of the organization. Calling together 16 Civil War com- rades for a sort of miniature protest meeting, Mr. King declared the G. A. R. wasn't participating in the procession for the main and simple reason that it wasn't invited to do so. Another rea- son, he added, was that the organiza- tlon, by a “ringing resolutjon,” voted not to march Mr. King, who is one of the Civil ‘War doorkeeper at the House, also was indignant because the committee in issuing its call for veterans, mentioned that several carloads of Confederates had been found. CHICAGO, March 14 (#)—Capt. William P. Wright, commander in chief of the Crand Army ©f the Republic, said last night he had receivetl, not one, but two invitaticns to attend the in- auguration. Other than that, he had no comment to mike on statements from Washington that the G. A. R. had not been asked to be in the parade. Radio Felicitation Sent to Roosevelt .

HOPES 10 REMAIN CLOSE T0 COUNTRY Mrs. Roosevelt Does Not Want to Be Set Apart From Affairs. Entering the White House, it is the hope of Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt that she may not be set apart from the stream of life affecting the rest of the cotntry. This message, the wife of the new President sent to a radio audience jast night. At the same time, Mrs. Roosevelt announced her intention of continuing to go on the air at times. Mrs. Roosevelt spoke over & Nuuznmn Broadcasting Co. hook-up from Sta ‘WRC. “It is easy in Washington to _?hknk that Washington is the country,” she said. “and forget that it is & very small place and only becomes impor- tant as the people who live there truly represent the other parts of the country. Wants Friends, “I hope that my friends will feel as much my friends as they have always felt and as free to talk to me and to tell me what they think as ever and I want to know the whole country, a little part of it. * * * “The one great danger for a man in public life, or for the woman who is that man’s wife, is that they may be set apart from the stream of life &f- fecting the rest of the country.” Continuing, Mrs. Roosevelt said: | "I wish to thank those of you who have vritten me many pleasant letters fr the encouragement which comes to all of us from the knowledge that we | bave been, even in minor things, help- | ful to others. | “Those who have been critical and | objected to anything which I have said, I also wish to thank because they have taught me some valuable lessons. Criticism is good for us all if it does not have the effect of discouraging us. “The criticism of the young is often of doubtful value. They haven't reached the point where they can rec- ognize their own mistakes or deficiencies and use criticism to good advantage. But for those of us who have lived a little longer, it should serve to clarify our ideas, make us surer of our own judgment and on the whole be helpful to us.” . Wants to Broadcast. Mrs. Roosevelt sald she hoped after becoming the Nation's First Lady to make radio speeches at times “if it | appears that there is any way in which I can be helpful” or if a subject peals to me as of interest nationally. She said the most important thing to her was human contacts—"other people’s lives.” “My friends and my family and my contacts with other human beings mean SXY more to me than anything else in 'ROOSEVELT TO RETAIN PRESS CONFERENCES |Expected to Drop Requirement That Questions Be Submitted in Writing. The semi-weekly press conferences es- tablished by President Harding for his conversations with the White House newspaper men will be continued by President Roosevelt. President Hoover held his conferences with the newswriters at noon Tuesdays and at 4 p.m. Fridays, although recent- 1y he has called a considerable number of meetings with the correspondents. President Roosevelt . is expected to change his Tuesday meeting to Wednes- day morning. Otherwise the chief change antici- pated by the newe President will be the dropping of the requirement that news- paper men's questions be submitted in writing ‘to Mr. Roosevelt. He always has enjoved, since his days as Assistant Secretary of the Navy, a quick of words and questions and with his interviewers.
