] have just come from visit to the
Roosevelt Memorial Library, the
lome and the grave of the late Presi-
lent.
1t is an astounding fact that an
lvearage of $500 persons per day
,our through those gates.
Since the library was opened there
lave been 100000 visitors, from all
parts of the country and almost all
PARTS of the world.
Men, women and children stand in
inc that runs three and four abreast
md for block in length to have the
opportunity to go through the Roose-
yelt home. They stand in line for as
Iong as two and three hours.
l submit that political leaders and
platform makers ought to take this
phenomenal outpouring very much to
heart.
1t is worthy of their profound
study.
No idle curiosity could bring so
many persons to stand bowed at a
simple grave, or to gaze in obviously
deep affection at a bed in which a
future president was born.
A somewhat surprising thing about
The home is the simplicity of it's furn-
ishings-what the decorators would
,all it's appointments. In a bedroom
where royalty has slept there is, for
example, stand on which there is a
wash bowl and water pitcher, just
as would have been the case in colon
ial days and just as still is the case
in many rural homes.
A brass bed is in another ROOM But
all around are the substantial furn-
ishings of early days-things with
traditions and about which memories
inevitably cling.
The house itself is of commanding
and it is commanding in
its outlook upon its surroundings.
From it there is vista of great
beauty and it is as if the house said
to the surroundings, 81 am important
and | know it."
The homes of Washington and of
Jefferson are that way, too. They be-
speak importance and Of an inner
knowledge that it is so.
And the families of Americans, of
all manner of Americans, go to this
home, to revive their memories of the
man Roosevelt-the man to whom
hey looked as champion and as a
guide.
They go because of their utter and
faith in the things for which
his man stood. And it must be that
hey go to restore their faith that
somehow the things for which he
stood shall not die in the mediocrity
If lesser minds and lesser faiths.
Here is the home and the tomb and
he memory of man who wanted
to preserve the kind of
America for which the masses of our
people long and for which they are
Wiling to fight every time they know
low to fight and whom to fight.

New York Statute Held
Aiding Fair Employment

New York City (ILNS)-Although
the Ives-Quinn law against racial and
religious discrimination in New York
"has not changed human nature"it is
evident that "it has changed employ

industries" Henry c. Turner, chair
man of the State Commission Against
Discrimination said.
In welcoming to his office here two
members of the Massachusetts Fair
Employment Commission, which was
created last May, Turner said 'there
is less discrimination in New York
state now than there was in March,
1915 when the law was passed.

At the same time, house support
of the un-American committee re-
quest for II more contempt cita-

Hap Arnold Will Retire
 Greatest Air Fleet . In World Welded
 By U. s. General

Washington, Jan. 9-(UP) -Gen. Henry H.. Arnold, who welded the U. s. Army Air Forces into the greatest air armada in the world, will relinquish his command about Feb. l5, it we learn{A today.

Arnold is scheduled to arrive in Colombia January IA of there abouts, in Peru January l7 and in Chile January 23. He expects to leave Chile on the return home about Feb. l.
 The trip will constitute one of Arnold's last official acts before stepping down from the command he assumed in March, 1922. Arnold had asked to be relieved earlier, but President Truman requested him to stay on for while.
 Arnold, who learned to fly with the Wright Brothers back in 1911 and served as an instructor in the Signal Corps Flying School when the Army first turned to flying in that year, said last weekend that the United States and other peace ful nations must control over whelming air power at all times to protect the world against interna- tional thugs. He said air power was the first priority weapon of peace, and might be the sole weapon used in the next war as a result of fam tastic developments of rocket and atomic weapons.
