KEY WEST, FLORIDA, ROOSEVELT TO SET NEW MARK IN TRAVELING VOYAGE TO BUENOS AIRES TO ATTEND PEACE PARLEY! WILL ESTABLISH NEW RECORD By ALEXANDER R. GEORGE (iy Associated Press) WASHINGTON, Nov. 20.— When President Roosevelt arrives home from his voyage on the Cruiser Indianapolis to the Inter- Amercian peace conference in Buenos Aires, it is believed he will have established a new record for Prsidential travel. While statistics on the mileage] covered by chief executives are not} complete it was figured recently | that Mr. Roosvelt’s total . before starting the long South American voyage was about 63,000 as com- pared with some 65,000 for jolly William Howard Taft and from 55,000 to 60,000 for strenuous Teddy Roosevelt. At His Best On Sea Franklin Roosevelt is an inde-{ fatigable traveler by train and automobile but it is on the sea he has loved since boyhood that he rea'ly shines as the greatest Presi- | dential voyager of all time. Whilej he has covered many thousands of | miles in campaign swings, drought and flood region tours, his major mileage has been piled up in wa- ter voyages taken mainly for rest and recreation. Longest of these were his trips to Hawaii and through the Pan-} ama canal in the summer of 1934,} and from Los Angeles to Charles- ; ton, S. C., by way of the canal in the fall of 1935. Others are his} summer vacation cruises in the North Atlantic, winter fishing} jaunts to southern waters and/ week-end trips down Chesapeake bay. Canada First Foreign Trip President Roosevelt made his first official good will visit to a » foreign-country last summer when he went to Quebec to meet Lord Tweedsmuir, governor general of Canada and Prime Minister Mac-j Kenzie King. He then told the Canadian people that “frank deal- ing, co-operation and a spirit of give and take between nations is more important than ever before” in solving wor!d prob‘ems. In going to South America now, Mr. Roosevelt shatters a cherished 10-year tradition—that of having Thanksgiving dinner with the crip- pled children at Warm Springs. ; For a decade he has carved the| turkey annually for youngsters undergoing treatment at the Georgia resort. Howeve-, he mas | visit Warm Springs for u few cere on his way back to We shington. | Seen Start Of Peace Move Carrying the prestige of a tre- ropular triumph at the : . 1 traveling ent in person his| doctrin» at the} peace conference, which opens De- eember i.
