As Jefferson Did

THE president seems to think that he
i who saves first, saves best speaking
of public mcnies. So he is saving first,
himself.
Ordinarily il is quite an event to install
n president in office, even when he leaves
his office in the White House early in
the morning of March 4 and returns the
same day TO the same office.
He has to journey from the White
House. up Pennsylvania avenue TO the
capitol and back again, preceded by bands
and soldiers and sailors and followed by
more bands and more soldiers and more
sailors, and by dignitaries IN high silk
hats.
Up and down the avenue the city COM
missionerS erect reviewing stands. from
which the good burghers of Washington,
who didn't vote for this president, or any
other president, can make up in cheering
and hand-clapping what they lacked in
suffrage.
In the evening some of the elect Of
Washington and their wives, the latter in
the gayest of gowns. usually repair to the
inaugural ball. where the president wears
out his good right arm, and his wife hers,
shaking hands.
All Of which isn't much fun for a retir-
ing fellow like Calvin Coolidge, but il Is
peaches and cream to the merchants Of
Washington, who have been waiting four
long years to sell finery TO the women.
Likewise, the event is much appreciated
by the hotels and restaurants and bus
lines, and others who feel that the presi-
dent of the United States should be in
stalled in office in manner befitting the
greatness of the nation.
You can see how il is. Likewise. you
can see how il tickled the cookies Of Mr..
Cooidge's heart when he was able 10 say
to the managers of the Inauguration cere-
money for next March 4. in substance:
Gentlemen, have been telling govern
ment employees they must save money.
One place that money can be saved is in
the Inauguration ceremony. Let us make
it simple as was Jefferson's. for example"
jefferson. you'll recall, was the president
who. about hundred years ago, strolled
unattended from his quarters to the capt.
toll. took the oath of office, and walked,
equally unattended. down to the White
House and went to work.
