LETTER

These efforts likewise came to naught.
The camera boys could stand outside
and shoot as much as they desired, but
they couldn't step inside.
The only suggestion of an explana-
ton, which comes from persons who
have been inside the house, is that the
president feels the interior would
hardly square with the Coolidge tradi-
tion Of Vermont simplicity. Anyone
who has ever been inside the old Cool
idge homestead in Plymouth, VT, with
it's huge. lengthy stovepipe bisecting
the sitting room, will get the point.
A desire has been manifested from
the direction of the White House to
stress the innate simplicity of the Du-
pont Circle place. But, under the cir
cumstanees, that is a rather difficult
task. The mansion is vastly more ritzy
than any private residence your COR
respondent has ever seen in the state
of Vermont.
1t is hardly likely that publication
of interior views of this little palace
would have any effect on the popular
conception of President Coolidge, and
the chances are that the presidents s
objections are due to a feeling of
modesty If it were his own, personal
dwelling, it might be different.
Douglas daily dispatch., 1927-03-17

WASHINGTON-P Coolidge
is not at all bashful, personally, about
posing for photographs.
In fact it is generally suspected that
he is rather fond of it.
But you may recall that you have
yet to see picture of the interior of
the presidents new temporary home,
the Patterson mansion on Dupont
Circle.
1t is very likely that you won't. And
it's the presidents fault.
AS soon as it was announced that
MIR. and Mrs. Coolidge would reside in
the home of the former Countess
Gizycka, now Mrs. Elmer Schlesinger.
great many bright young men engag-
ed in the business of taking photo
photographs inside the temporary
White House.
Mrs. Schlesinger herself had no
objection, it appeared. She was rather
proud of the old home, in fact But
Mrs. Schlesinger was powerless. Orders
had come from the White House that
it was not desired to have such pict-
ures appear in the newspapers
No reason was given for this re-
luctance, officially. The president of
the United States seldom has to give
explanations for anything of such a
nature.
AS the time approached for the presi-
dent to desert the White House pend
ing repairs, and to move into the
Dupont Circle place, efforts We're re-
doubled to obtain the interior views.

There's charm in the violin,
There's lure in the light guitar,

But a musical treat that has them

With the stick, as it were, inside
