While the President is away, painters swarm over seaffeldings. Furniture movers have cleared the famous green, red and blue rooms, piling their contents into the east room which te beginning to look like a glori- fied “grandma's attic.” But adding to the~ nation’s “first home” is a more delicate problem than most citizens will have, for in many respects the White Howse is untouchable. «It belongs to the people. . They love it, They want it to remain sub- stantially as it is, as has been! demonstrated in. past years when suggestions have been made , for materially altering its scheme. From the time of its conception | in the brain of James Hoban, al-! most a century and a half ago, the; White House has been planned not ; only with regard for its own pro- portions, but also in keeping with! the whole Washington scene.
