Wilson Will Take Oath of Office
On Sunday, Then Again Next Day

Washington special to New York
Times.l
After an examination OF its records
in search for precedents. the state
department holds that in its view
there is no interval between the term
OF one president and the beginning OF
hts successor. although there may be
slight interval when the executive
power is suspended" The depart
ment also holds that the fact that
President Wilson's first term will ex-
pirc on Sunday will not leave a
hiatus in the office OF president until
noon Of Monday. March s 1917 when
Mr.. Wilson will formally take the
oath of office for a second term.
In order to obviate the raising OF
any questionfas to what person is ex-
ercising the functions of chief execu-
tive ON Sunday. March 4. 1917. Secre-
tary Lansing will advise President
Wilson to take the oath for second
term on that day. The oath will be
.readministered to Mr.. Wilson on
Monday, March 5th.
The ruling of the state department
disposes of the theory that the Sec.
retary of state-in this case, Mr..
Lansing-will become acting presi-
dent ad interim for the period be"
tween midnight of Saturday, March
3, 1917, and noon of Monday, March
5. when Mr.. Wilson will be formally
inaugurated for a second term. Search
OF the archives OF the state depart,
ment brought to light sufficient evi,
dence to lay the ghost of an historical
tradition that Vice President Danie
d. Tompkins of New York served as
president for the twenty-four hours
of Sunday, March 4, 1921, between
the first and second terms of Presi
dent Monroe.
The position Of the state depart
ment is based mainly on letter
found in the archives, written BY
Chief Justice John Marshall to Johs
Quincy Adams, secretary Of state
dated February 20. 1921. Monroe hat
been elected president for the tern
beginning March 4, 1917, and re-elect
cd for the term beginning March 4
1921. The Marshall letter shows tha
