ROOSEVELT
Mystery Man Visit Precedes
Conference With CIaudeI,
French Ambassador

NEW YORK, Feb. 81 U.N.S0. d.
William C. Bullitt, whose recent
mysterious conferences with for
eign premiers attracted world
wide attention, was scheduled for
an appointment with President
elect Roosevelt today before a
scheduled visit from Paul Claudel,
French ambassador to the United
States.
The visit of the French am
baSSador was seen as the first bid
of France for recognition from
the new American administration,
and the prelude for the calling
of the World Economic Conference
either in Washington or London
to embrace vital international
problems.
The British View
This French gesture follows on
the heels of a conference between
the President-elect and Sir Ronald
Lindsay, British Ambassador to
the United States, who. has just
returned from conferences with
his government in London.
Sir Ronald returned to the
United States with word that his
government could not agree to
economic concessions in exchange
for revision Cf Britain'S $4,500,.
900, 900 debt in advance Of a gen.
ertl meeting Of the world powers.
The fact that Mr.. Roosevelt.
together with his yet unar1lounced
Secretary of State, will continue
conversations with the ambassa-
dor between now and inaugura-
tion day clearly indicates an
accord on procedure.
The President-elect has demand
ed specific trade concessions, and
it is considered obviously to the
advantage of the United States to
set them in advance of debt re-
duction.
Hull, WOOdin "SIated"
Announcement was expected
almost momentarily tina; Senator
Cordell Hull CD of Tennessee,
was to be the Roosevelt Secretary
of State.
It was possible also that the
new Secretary of the Treasury
would be named formally. This
post reputedly is going to William
H. Woodin, of New York, preSi-
dent of the American Car and
Foundry Company.

be considered in making a judgment
about character on the basis of hand
writing. Taken all together, you may
call these your personality gestures.
You may safely say that ones charac-
ter is the sum total of ones habits.
A person writing with heavy"
hand usually walks vigorously and talks
freely. You sense a general force or
vigor about such an individual On the
other hand, timid person usually
writes carefully with smaller charac-
ters walks slowly. talks less vigorously.
This is where we make our mistakes
about handwriting. We are likely to
focus Our attention on the handwrit-
