L years.
It marks the end of one era
and the beginning of another in
our history.
1t is the symbol of a change
which may vitality affect the
lives and fortunes of millions OF
Americans.
But, particularly, it is a col
orful, dramatic spectacle which,
more nearly than any other
event experienced in a democ-
racy, resembles. the pomp and
pageantry of ancient customs.
For all these reasons, every
four years, the eyes of the Unit
ed States are centered on
Washington, D. c., where a
new President is inaugurated
or the incumbent in the White
House takes the oath of Office
a second time.
Inauguration day this year will
be an historic event. The princi-
pal reason is this:
AS the result of the ratification
of the twentieth, otherwise known
as the Norris or 'lame duck"
amendment to the Constitution,
Inauguration day is being held
on January 20 instead of the
traditional March 4. So to Frank
lin Delano Roosevelt, exponent
of the ''New Deal" falls the
distinction of being the first Pres
ident to be indicted into Office
under a new deal in Inauguration
days.
Washington weather, tradition
ally capricious, may be worse
on January 20 than it usually
has been on March 4. But cap
ital observers are wagering that
Roosevelt LUCK" which has in
cluded ''lucky breaks" when
weather conditions might affect
his career, will hold and that the
skies will smile on his second
Inauguration even more than they
did on his first.
Whether they are true prophets
in that respect remains to be
seen. But it is rather certain
that their prophecies in regard
to the size of the crowd which
will jam the streets of the capital
on this day of days in our ma
tional history will be accurate,
possibly erring only on the side
of an underestimate. Last No
vember Roosevelt was reelected
by the greatest vote of confidence
any American had received since
the time of George Washington.
A few days later he returned
to the capital and was acclaimed
by a crowd of 200, 900. an UNI
precedented tribute in blase and
ordinarily Unconditional Washing
ton. So there is every reason to
believe that January 20 will see
a hegira of Americans to Wash
ington which will break all pre-
vious records and a celebration
of the event in keeping with its
historic importance.
Of course, President Roosevelt
has expressed a desire for a
"simple inauguration" He did
that when the question of plans
for the event were first preached.
But that doesn't mean that he
will have it. Other Presidents
have made the same request and
invariably it has not been grant
ed. For the American people, and
more particularly those of Wash
ington, want their "big show"
every four years and they usually
get it.
"Jeffersonian Simplicity"
The President not only asked
for a "simple Inauguration" but
he is also reported to have said
that he favored "Jeffersonian
simplicity" The only difficulty
with that phrase is that the two
