He sent his old fedora {to the repairers for cleaning, re- | blocking and general slicking up, with the admonition that it be ready for Easter. Publication’ of this fact created consternation among the hat manu- jfacturers, while the cleaners were | elated, Whether the hat manufacturers made a formal protest to the White House cannot be learned, but the hot tip in official quarters yesterday was that two brand-new hats were recently delivered at the White | House. They were men's hats, the {boxes addressed to the president and were sent from a well known | Washington hatter's shop. Only the president and the hatter know whether the delivery resulted from executive backsliding in the econ- Inn\y program or from the beneficent generosity of some thoughtful friend. ‘New Orleans Goes to | Democratic Party New Orleans, April 8.—The re- | bublican party presenting its first complete ticket in many years, was swamped by the demoerats 15 to 1 ratio in the general election yesterday for municipal and parish officers.* Martin Behrman will be the city’s next mayor.

This it was pointed out would place a hardship upon the museum since the collec- tion has not heen catalogued, is not homogeneous and comprises objects of all kinds and of various styles and periods, The museum also is loath to setting aside in perpetuity the large space necessary. President Robert W. De Forest, of the museum, while declining to com- mit himself, as to the probable out- come, said that Senator Clark had not consulted museum officials be- fore bequeathing the collection con- ditionally, Such informal consuita- tions, he added, frequently had re- sulted posed restrictions, the season.
