his feet by his presidential am

visited Tacoma recently, and he
hasn't been yet.
But he feels the tide rising
at least he thinks he does-and
is yielding to it.
His Boston headquarters are
not presidential headquarters. He
told a Times correspondent they
were not. They are merely an
extra office where he can go and

The office is at IS Devonshire
street, on the ninth floor. There
are two offices, an outer room
where the public waits and an in

interview. On the door is the
chaste inscription:

Senator Weeks favors a revi-

initiative, referendum and recall,

reforms, he says, are not any
