Mrs. Adamson, wife Of a
former game warden in the

to the United States for a
variety of appointments,
among them several speaking
engagements. She is accom-
panied by Maj. E. M. Grim
wood, Kenya's Chief Game
Warden, whom she asked
along to serve as her expert
for difficult questions.
Maj. Grimwood's m major
project while here concerns
the Arabian oryx, a type of
antelope now on the verge of
extinction. He and other con-
ServationiStS are seeking to

and bring them together in a

First Lady and the Children
Will Leave for Florida

loaned to the White House
by Mrs. Howell Howard Of
New York.
Mrs. Howard is well known
for her collection of antique
creches, which have been ex-
hibited all over the country.
She came to the White House
especially to arrange the 18th
century Neapolitan figures
which include Mary, Joseph
and the Christ child, a host
Of angels, shepherds and
farm animals.
Arranging the creche,
which all the tourists are
able to see, took three days.
The creche is banked with
white azaleaS, roses and
carnations.
To complete the simple
beauty Of the East Room are
four unadorned cedar trees.
A Snowy Mantle
Mrs. Kennedy had realized
her greatest wish yesterday
by having the White House
decorated in the style of an
American country house.
Even the weather had CO.
operated and snow covered
the grounds. The mansion is
filled with unadorned cedar
trees, garlands of greens and
masses Of holly. Then for the
delight of the youngsters,
there is the Nutcracker Suite
Christmas tree.
This year the 16-foot tree
is in the main foyer, instead
of the Blue Room as 1t was
last year. The reason for
this is that the Blue Room
will be closed over the holi-
days for renovation.
The tree will have many
a young eye bulging as the
children Of the Nation go
through the White House
this season. Each ornament
is a child's delight.
They are all tiny toys,
wrapped packages, candy
canes and old-fashioned gin
gerbread cookies.
Many Of the ornaments
are made from straw, in
cluding the large multi
. pointed star atop the tree
that brushes the chandelier.
Most Of them were made
by blind or elderly craftsmen
throughout the country and
were ordered by Mrs. Ken
nedy last year. The First
Lady wanted a tree for chill
dren and will leave the orna-
ments in the Executive Man
sion for years to come.
The State Dining Room
also is a place Of beauty.

All this beauty has not
been lost to Caroline and

preview of the decorations
late yesterday morning and
kept the press waiting for
their peek.

Reception
Last evening President and
Mrs. Kennedy gave the an
nual Christmas reception in
honor Of some 1900 White
House staff members, includ-
ing everyone from top aides
to chauffeurs, chamber maids
and chefs.
The scene was a gay one
with the Executive Mansion
decorated in all its Christ
mas finery and Christmas
carols were sung by the
Army. Navy, Marine and
Air Force choral groups. The
Marine band also was on
hand to play.
There was no receiving line
and President and Mrs. Ken
nedy mingle d informally
through the state rooms with
their guests. Two long buffet
tables, one in the State
Dining Room and one in the
East Room, were set up Of
fering Christmas punch and
a variety Of cookies, cakes
and sandwiches.
No doubt, the biggest high
light for the staff members
was a special Christmas pres
ent for each of them from
President and Mrs. Kennedy
These were reproductions

ance Of an original water

They are signed in the
lower right hand corner,

best wishes for a happy

Kennedy's handwriting and
signed by both Of the Ken
nedys.
The reproductions are en-
cased in a matching red fold
er with the presidential
seal on the front Of it. They
measure is by II inches.
Mr.. Lehman Is a free
lance painter who specianzes
in interiors. He came to the
White House last spring on
a special assignment from
the Philadelphia Bulletin to
do some Of the newly dec
GRATED rooms.
As a special present to
Mrs. Kennedy he gave her a
water color of the Red
Room and she was so pleased
with 1t that she had it copied
as the Kennedy's present to
the White House staff mem
berS. No one else is to receive
a copy, according to Miss
Pamela TurnuTe, press Secre-
tary to Mrs. Kennedy.
After the party President
and Mrs. Kennedy attended
the performance of the Amer
ican Ballet Theater which
starred British Prima Bal
lerina Dame Margot Fonteyn.
Mrs. Kennedy went back
stage during the intermission
to meet Dame Margot and
pose for pictures. The Presi-
dent met Dame Margot and
her husband. DR.. Roberto
Arias, when they attended
the White House luncheon
for the Chilean President
earlier this week.
Also on the White House
schedule for today was a
1890 pm. reception for
newspaper women to see the
Christmas decorations. How
ever. this was not issued In
Mrs. Kennedy's name.
Something special has been
added to the White House
Christmas decor this year. 1t
is a beautiful antique lighted
creche that is set up in the
East Room between the two
fireplaces on the east side
OF the room and between the
portraits Of George and
Martha Washington.

Meanwhile, the Presidents,
committee, noting that this
conflict-of-interest provision
will work hardships on Federal
classified employe unions, said
the unions should be given a
reasonable transition" period
to replace these union officers
who no longer will be eligible
to hold office. Committee
spokesmen said this meant un-
til the officers present term
of office ends or within six
months, whichever is the later.
The committee also said
agencies can grant exclusive
recognition on a national or
agency-wide basis. However, it
expressed the hope that,
wherever possible, exclusive
recognition be extended at the
local level.
NEW JOB STANDARDS
The Civil Service Commission
has completed work on nine
new or revised job classifica-
ton standards, including a gen.
eral guide for evaluating the
grades of non-supervisory cleri-
cal employees, including the
grade levels of about 10000
clerks never before covered by
classification standards. Gen.
orally, there will be no changes
in the present grades of these
jobs.
Six of the standards are re-
visions of previously existing
standards. They are museum
specialist and technician, loan
specialist, guide formerly
known as tour leader, museum
curator, historian and illustra-
tor. The three others are the
guide for clerical employees,
printing specialist and officer
and photographer. It's not an
ticipated that there will be any
upgradings for any of the jobs
except some of the museum
specialists and technicials,
guides, historians and illustra-
tors.
