ROOSEVELT INAUCURATED
AS THIRD TERM LEADER
Takes Oath of Office Monday
Before $4,000 People; Million
Watch Inaugural Parade

Franklin D. Roosevelt, solemnly
taking his third presidential oath be-
meath the capitol's sunflecked dome
on Monday, proclaimed to defense
minded Americans that "Our strong
purpose is to protect and perpetuate
the integrity of democracy"
Before a shivering crowd of more
than $4,000 the President stood bare
headed beside Chief Justice Charles
Evans Hughes, placed his hand upon
a worn old Dutch family Bible and
promised to preserve, protect and
defend the constitution"
Shortly before he took his oath
John N. Garner, retiring vice-presi-
dent, swore in Henry A. Wallace, of
Iowa, as his successor in the vice
presidency.
President Roosevelt's inaugural ad-
dress was in effect a sermon on the
glories of democracy.
Democracy is not dying. We know
it because we have seen it revive and
grow. We know it cannot die because
it is built on the unhampered initia-
tive of individual men and women
joined together in a common enter
prise undertaken and carried through
by the free expression of a free ma
jority.
eve know it because democracy
alone has constructed an unlimited
civilization capable of infinite prog
ress in the Improvement of human
life"
The Chief Executive counselled at
the outset against risking "the real
peril Of inaction" He called for a
continuation of "the spirit-the faith
Of America"
"In the face Of great perils never
before encountered our strong pur-
pose is to protect and to perpetuate
the integrity of democracy For this
we muster the spirit Of America and
the faith of America. We do not re-
treat. We are not content to stand
still. AS Americans we go forward in
the service of our country, by the will
of God"
Clear but sub-freezing weather
bathed his third-term inauguration.
The President rode to the Capitol
down historic Pennsylvania avenue
through shivering crowds numbering
nearly a million who stood in curb
stone lines for hours.

Mostly Whites; This County
to Send 10 This Time

The third draft call since selective
service was inaugurated has been an
nounced by Governor Herbert R.

airy.

Baltimore last Wednesday as it's jan
uary quota, and three in the first
draft, but it will be called upon to
furnish 10 men for the next one.
The January quota in the state was

call will include 801 whites and 269
negroes. Of this number 371 whites

Baltimore city.

syl' nia will contribute 1911, Vir-
gina 843, the District of Columbia

ton. All draftees are examined by

lives in Maryland during December,
1910, which was the highest Deem
Der death rate in four years and an

lead all other types for severity. Fiji
ty-one of the number killed in Deem
