Rotes Three Offices

STEPPED In history, Vice
President Nixon's formal. Of
fee adjacent to the Senate
Chamber Is well worth peep
ing into.
Not on q regular Capitol
tour, the room is looked after
by Senate Doorkeeper Honore
(Pete) Provencal when the
Vice President is not occupying
it Sometimes Pete gives spe-
cial visitors a look at the fur
nishings which are valued at
close to three quarters Of
million dollars.
An enormous chrystal chan
delier dominates the center of
the room hanging above an
oversize desk. Once o White
House accessory. the chande-
lier was first bought by Thonn-
as Jefferson In Paris and later
placed in the Executive Man
sion.
According to Mr.. Provencal,
who knows the history of each
item, President Grover Cleve-
land was married under the
chandelier in the East Room.
Converted from candles to gas
to electricity, the fixture had
found its way to a spot di-
rectly over the desk of the
President of the United States
by the time Theodore Roose-
velt arrived on the scene.
Mr.. Roosevelt, who worked
with windows open In the days
before air conditioning, be-
came annoyed with the tink-
ling Of the prisms above his
head. One day he ordered the
chandelier removed to the
Vice Presidents formal Office
at the Capitol, where it's been

opposite wall is a large book

Made from wood of the USS

Pete, 1t is one Of the oldest
pieces OF furniture in the

Mr.. Nixon has still a third
office tucked away in a corner
Of the Capitol in addition to
this formal Office and his busi-
ness Office in the Senate Office
Building. In his personal
Office he often entertains
friends and VIPs for lunch.
The walls in the personal
Office are lined with colorful
gifts presented to the Nixons
on their Far East tour, includ-
ing the fabulous tigers head
ashtray. a gift of Thailand's
Junior Chamber of Commerce.
Mr.. Nixon says gifts pre-
sented to them on their most
recent Latin American trip are
beginning to arrive in his
office. Where he'll put them
for display hasn't been de-
cided.
