Washington, Aug 9. (UP)-Cal- win Coolidge Is the only living ex- president but there are i've living presidents wives.
 They go back to Cleveland's time. Mrs Frances, Folsom Cleve- land Preston heads the list in seniority but not in age. She was young when she married President Cleveland in the White House.
 The others are Mrs Theodore Roosevelt. Mrs William Howard Taft, Mrs Woodrow Wilson, and Mrs Calvin Coolidge. Except for Mrs William Mckinley and Mrs Warren Harding, both dead, the line of living former mistresses of the White House goes back almost half a century.
 Once while president, Calvin Coolidge remarked that the strain of the presidency was indicated by the fact that there was only one livnig ex-president, Taft, who was Chief Justice of the United States. Now Coolidge is the only living former president.
 Mrs Theodore Roosevelt will be q house guest at the White House during the Hoover notification ceremonies.
 In congress the practice of filling vacancies by naming widows of deceased members has become common. In the present congress three house seats and one senate seat are held by widows of mem- bers who died in service. In Ten nessee, Mrs Edward E. Eslick, democrat. has just been nominated in the primary to fill the place of her husband who died recently in the midst of speech in the house.
 Whenever president or former president dies, congress always en- acts bill giving the widow an an- nual pension of $5,000 and free use of the mails. Presidential widows have specially printed en- velopes bearing their facsimile sig natures in the upper right-hand corner where postage stamps or- dinarily would be placed. They must pay for the envelopes them selves. These may or may not be printed at the government printing office as desired.
