winter.
If the war continues, the White
House social program, usually five
state dinners and five state recep-
t1Qns, may be cancelled or curtailed.
F'riends of Mrs. Roosevelt repre-
sent her as feeling that, if Europe
continues to be devastated by war,
relief work for war sufferers should
supplant formal social activities.
She later may feel that it is
better to go on with social life
as usual, adding to it war relief
activities.

the dinner and the reception for
the diplomatic corps, usually the

the disposal of tenants, and what
the landlord will be allowed to keep
for himself
Non-Jewish building owners must
also report to the authorities by
