 White House officials had no com- ment on the request but said they were checking to see if the clergy mems letter of protest had been re- ceived.
 The ministerial association based it's protest on a report in the Nov. 13 issue of Time Magazine, which said that MT. Roosevelt, while be- hind the curtains of the voting ma chine, was heard to mutter:
 "The G. D. thing won't work"
 Dr. J. Whitcomb Brougher, ST., president of the Glendale Minister ial Association, ann:unced that the following letter had been sent to MT. Roosevelt:
 'The members of the Ministerial Association of Glendale do hereby express to you our griel over your regrettable breach against God and the consciences and hopes of mill lions of people of this and other lands by your shocking profanity on election day, while in the election booth as reported by Time Magazine.
 We earnestly pray that you may feel that contrition and seek that forgiveness which Holy God enjoins, and publicly apologize to and reas- sure faithful constituents and friends the world over, whom you have so gravely grieved.''
