PLANS FOR
F j 7 URE
SECRET

his departure from Washing
ton March 4 in exactly the
same manner that President
Roosevelt did 20 years ago.
On that day, after his successor,
William Howard Taft, had been
sworn in, Mr.. Roosevelt went di-
rectly to the Union Station and
left the city for his home in Oyster
Bay. He did not go back to the
White House after he had res
linquished his place as master or
that mansion.
President Coolidge will do the
same thing. Plans had been made
for him to ride back to the White
House with his successor and
lunch there, but he will not do
so. The limelight will belong ex-
clusively to Mr.. Hoover as soon
as the Inaugural parade begins.
To Say Farewell
Officials of the Coolidge regime
will gather in the Presidential
room of the Union Station to bid
farewell to their ex.chief, and one
of the most interesting episodes Of
the Inauguration will take place
there.
President Coolidge is going di-
rectly to his home in Northampton,
Mass, at least for the present. He
has not disclosed his future plans
yet. The entire program for In
augural Day in the city now has
been mapped out. Nothing has
been left to chance. There is no
deviation form the precedent set in
previous inaugurations.
Ceremonies Start at IL A. M.
The official ceremonies at the
Capitol start at IL o'clock, and 1t
probably will be o'clock before
the final unit of the parade passes
by the reviewing stand in front
of the White House.
1t is estimated that the parade
will start from the Capitol at 1:45
O'Clock. There win be a halt in
the line of not more than 20 min
utes while the President and his
party take luncheon in the White
House.
