fixtures, the room actually is simple in
the matter of furnishings. There are no

which Is silver pitcher for Ice water

The room runs along the east side
Of the executive ONCE building, which
is the side facing the White House itself.
Instead Of windows there are four large
French doorways on the east side which
open out upon the walkway between the
Presidents once and the mansion.
These French doorways not only afford
ample light but provide picturesque
view Of the mansion itself and the south
grounds. There are Two large inverted
lights in the ceiling and number Of
subdued wall lights.
At one end Of the room there Is huge
fireplace, on either side Of which Is

great worshiper of Lincoln. The room
had for years been used as part Of
bed room suite but he turned it into q
workshop, and 1t became known through
out the land, during his administration,
as the Lincoln study. In 1t he held many
important conferences, among them
being those with Ramsay Macdonald.
the British prime minister, and Prime
Minister Laval Of France.
It was In this room also that Nj.
Hoover struggled night after night into
the late hours with the problems pre-
sented by the depression.
when Andrew johnson succeeded to
the presidency, upon the assassination
Of President Lincoln, he kept this room
for the presidential once, but he selected
the room next to 1t on the west side for
his cabinet meetings. This latter room
has been used generally since that time
as library or sitting room for the prest-
dental family.
During the Hoover administration, Mrs.
Hoover dug up number Of pieces of fur
nituYe belonging to James Monroe, which
she had placed IN this room, and during
the Hoover regime It was labeled the
Monroe room." The Roosevelts have
turned this into an informal sitting room.
Mrs Roosevelt frequently receives friends
and groups of women in 1t.
President Mckinley used this room
during the Spanish War for his confer
ences and cabinet meetings. His sue
cesSor, Theodore Roosevelt, soon found
this room and the others on the second
floor allotted for presidential business too
cramped and otherwise not suitable, and
at the first opportunity he obtained from
Congress an appropriation for an Office
building, at the extreme west wing Of
the mansion, in which was provided q
room for cabinet meetings.

meetings have been considerably al
tered in their character since the be-
ginning Of his administration. This has
been brought about as result Of the
emergency activities, which overshadow
everything else in the category Of presi-
dental business.
To meet the situation, he created
early in his first year in the White House,
. body composed Of cabinet members
and heads Of the various recovery agen-
cies, which he labeled the Emergency
Council. Later he created body known
as the Executive Council, the personnel
of which was made up from some cabinet

and in the interest of time, the Presi-
dent virtually combined their sessions.
In other words he had the cabinet meet
with him each Tuesday, which, by the
way, has been cabinet day as long as can
be remembered, and at the same time
had the Executive Council assemble. BY
this arrangement he killed two birds
with one stone" and quite naturally
saved much time.
Friday has been the other cabinet
meeting day for many years. and since
the creation Of the Emergency Council,
he has held . sort Of joint cabinet and
council session.
These bi-weekly sessions are scheduled
to begin at Z O'Clock In the afternoon,
and n general rule they run about two
hours. Mr.. Roosevelt's method, when he
sits down at the head Of the table on
these occasions, Is first to take up mat
ters strictly Of q cabinet nature, and
when these have been disposed Of, he
adjourns the cabinet meeting, 20 to
speak, and opens the council session.
These generally resemble board meet
ings Of club or corporation, except that

his elbow, to keep minutes Of the meet

the nature of the discussion calls for

\A/HnE those about the table have
little use for the pens and pencils
and pads In front of them, it is sur
prising how much paper Is actually con-
sumed by the drawing Of funny looking
lines and curves and the scribbling Of
meaningless words and letters. The
theory Of this is hard to explain, but
those who clean up after a cabinet and
council meeting, as well as any board
meeting where pads and pencils are

ITALIAN SOCIETY
 FILES PETITION
Urges disappointment Su- pernumerary Policeman
 Menzelle

No action is expected by the board of police commissioners at ite meeting this afternoon on pc- titions asking the appointment or former supernumerary. Nicholas Menzelle as regular member or the police department. The peti' tions have been prepared this week by the five local lodges of the Or der of Sons of Italy, and were ex- pected to be received by the police board before its meeting at D o'clock this afternoon.
 The petitions, if received by the board prior to the meeting, will, following usual practice be read but in all probability they will then ben tabled for future action.
 The petitions were signed last night by Michael Giusto, venerable of Provincial d'Avellino lodge, and by Oreste Castellano. venerable or Loggia Italia. Venerables of three other lodges were to sign the pe- titions this morning. Approval of the move was given yesterday by Michael Russo of Middletown, grand venerable of the order.
 Menzelle, a member of the su- pernumerary force for 13 years. was retired last year when he reached the age of 40. During hls 13 years as a supernumerary, he worked as a regular for several years. He was injured while on duty in 1881.
 The petitions claim that it is un- fair" to deprive Menzelle of regular work because he had reached the age limit. It is pointed out that he rendered faithful service" while a supernumerary engaged in regular duty.

MoreWomen Teachers
 In Colleges Desired
Union College Philosophy Professor Advocates Move; Distribution of Teaching Capacities Misunderstood

The result is to distort and mis- represent the true picture of the distribution of learning and teach ing capacities between the sexes.
 We hear constantly" Dr Lar rabee added, ''that there should be more men teachers in our sec- ondary and elementary schools, and I believe that there should be. But why ia there not an equal demand for more professors of first-rate abilities and attainments in our colleges and universities, by which I mean the coeducational and mems institutions as well as those exclusively for women? No one any longer supposes that nature mysteriously equipped women for one kind of teaching and not for the other, with the dividing line exactly at the college-entrance age. Of course there are tradition al reasons why men do most of the advanced teaching in this country. Fore one thing, we got started that way, in hte days when higher edu- cation suddenly expanded. This was just before the opening of colleges and particularly of graduate schools to which women were admitted. The ment scholars of those days were prepared for the new posi-. tions, and quickly monopolized the profession of college professor. But since that time the higher educa- tion of women has made such great advances tht there is little excuse for imagining that males must necessarily fill all the chairs of our colleges. The combination of scholar and god teacher is so rare in either sex, that our search for suitable academic timber should not be confined at the start to fifty percent of the population"

SECRETARY OF
 LABOR HECKLED
 DURING SPEECH
Sympathizers of British Author Tried to Put
 Her on Spot

Chicago, March 2O-(UP)-La- Dor Secretary Frances Perkins lost her temper last night over heck ling during Q banquet address about the recent arrest of Evelyn John Strachey, British radical and former parliament member.
 She verbally spanked 468 stu dents, professors and alumni of Northwestern U diversity and turned a chill shoulder to queries from the floor signed by Clarence Darrow. Rabbi Felix Levy and four University of Chicago faculty mem bers.
 Strachey, communistic author and lecturer, was arrested on a de- portation warrant last week. Miss Perkins just had concluded an address before 1900 persons on unemployment insurance before the council of social agencies of Chicago when Strachey sympathiz- CTS rushed her. ~
 Richard Peterson, bespectacled Northwestern alumnus, thrust at her a petition demanding to know .why did you order arrest of John Strachey?" It carried 468 sigma lures.
 Miss Perkins brushed the paper aside with vigorous arm.
 "But we are students of North western protesting an outrage" Peterson argued.
 "I am not here to instruct students of Northwestern univer- sity," the secretary retorted. I suggest the classroom"
 Asked about a telegram circu- lated through her audience, pro. testing Strachey's persecution" and signed by typewriter with 36 such names as Clarence Darrow. Prof Paul Douglas, ''fusion party" candidate for mayor: Prof Robert Lovett, who provided bond on which Strachey is free and Thom- as McKenna, secretary of the Chi cago Civil Liberties Union. Miss Perkins said it's originators were less interested in obtaining justice than in "causing a commotion."
 She entrained at midnight for San Francisco, where she will ad- dress a five-state labor conference.

Sechenectady, N. Whore wo- men teachers in our colleges and universities were advocated by Pro- lessor Harold A. Larrabee of Union College in a recent lecture in Ale bany before the American Assocta- tion of University Women on the subject "The Learned Lady. Then and Now"
 There is something almost grotesque, when you stop to think of it." he declared, about our educational division of labor be- tween the sexes. For the first twelve years of a child's life, wo- men teachers are the rule; but when college is reached, men teach CTS are equally in the overwhelm- ing majority. Women monopolize one field, and men do the same in the other. This leads the growing child to associate one level of in- tellectual attainment with one sex, and a different level with the other.

NRA Exemption For Fish Rod Winders
BY PAUL MAY Democrat Correspondent)

 Washington, D. C., March 2O.-Bccause of . shortage of bamboo fishing rod winders in the state of Connecticut, the Union Hardware company, TOrrington, Conn.,, has been granted permission to work 22 of it's employees overtime until April 1S, according to the terms of an executive orr der handed down here today by the National Industrial Re- c0very Board.
 The order Is an extension of an exemption which was or. iginally granted on March 1, to expire March IF. Tech. nically, 1t exempts the Union Hardware company from the code of competition for the Fishing Tackle Industry insO- far as the code applies to 21 bamboo winders and one sup- ervisOr in the Union plant.
 The order permits the 21 winders (all girls) and their supervisor to work up to 54 hours per week and provides that they shall be paid time and n half for all overtime work. The code stipulates that the hours of labor shall be 40 per week.
 The exemption was granted the Union Hardware company only after the United States Unemployment director for Connecticut had reported to the NIRB that there was only one bamboo winder registered in the state, and that such workers, therefore, were prob- ably not available to the Tor- ringtOn company.
