ready and eager, Franklin D.
Roosevelt called in his family and
immediate official friends today
for the trip to Washington and
the White House.
Alive to the economic turmoil
surrounding the dying days Of the
Republican administration, Mr..
Roosevelt gave no hint of worry
about it as he made ready for the
greatest trip of his life-the Jour-
ney on the road to Inauguration
as President Of the United States.
He kept close touch with the
developments of the ending
Seventy-second Congress. William
H. Woodin, master Of finance and
new Secretary of the Treasury,
was within hailing distance, but
Mr.. Roosevelt was thinking of his
inaugural day and the new deal"
he has in mind.

Cheering throngs of men, women,
children and workers generally which
greeted him on his last drive down
the Hudson River Valley late yesterday
spurred Roosevelt to his faith that the
American people will depend on him
for better days.
Late today-about pm.-he will
entrain for Washington to spend day
before going to the White House to
join President Hoover for the moment
GUS ride to the Capitol, where he takes
the oath.

Extra Session Expected.
There is every sign that Mr.. Roose-
velt is prepared to plunge quickly into
the problems confronting him. With
out doubt he will call the new Con-
gress into specials session at an early
date, but he will not act until he sees
what this Congress has done when II
ends next Saturday noon.
The perplexing domestic situation has
almost eclipsed the international flelo
which Roosevelt has been studying re-
Gently, but he is going ahead in that
direction, too. An early world eco
nomic conference is believed certain
That will be held before any war debts

Whether there Is any connection be-
tween the world situation and the
American bank situation is something
that is subject to consideration by the
Roosevelt family. It is recognized thai
some American gold is "ear marked
by foreigners, but 1t Is also understood
that only an inappreciable amount car
be shipped abroad at time because
of shipping facilities, 50 no fear 4
held on that account.
