By EDITH K. GAYLORD
WASHINGTON, Oct "26 iP)
Harry i Hopkins is one of those
whom President Roosevelt trusts
and "wants around ; him at all
times' Mrs." Roosevelt said today
In denying lhat Hopkins' impend
ing move from ; the White house
to a, home of his own means any
change in his close .personal and
working relationship to the pre
sident. , .
The president will always see
Mr. .Hopkins for . the r work re
quired", Mrs. Roosjevelt asserted,
"and also for the pleasure he has
in the friendship.,, : ; t "
' Hopkins,1 whose residence in the
White house, since .May, .10, 1940,
has.; aroused occasional criticism,
plans to move with Mrs. Hopkins
and his daughter, . Diana, ,to a
house in Georgetown as soon as
it is ready, the first lady, told her
press j conference. - !;,v.Mi:';?"--
Mrs. Roosevelt said s Hopkins
"made a sacrifice, to move into
the White house because the pre
sident wanted , him at all hours
while, Hopkins-: was recuperating
from, anillnes-?-,, f." f V
j IfHe's rStronger and the work is
getting' . better organized," . Mrs.
Roosevelt asserted. They feel they
have a right " to have a house , of
their own." :T'-;;-
' Hopkins V married 'Mrs. Louise
Macy, " his third wife; in the pre
sident's study on J uly 30, . 1942,
and brought his bride' to live in
his White house suite. ,
To a question whether Hopkins'
departure meant that . his influ
ence with the president . has les
sened, Mrs. Roosevelt replied that
people '" misinterpreted the - mean
ing of influence in reference to
the " president. ". f ;.er:i 'J
; "It would be a good, idea for
people to I realize that any man
occupying a (position of great re
sponsibility may gather all the in
formation ; in the world and ask
for all the opinion," she said, "but
in the end he knows the final de
cisions are his and his only and
he isn't going to be influenced to
the extent of doing things which
he himself has not decided.
"Being human beings, men with
great responsibility ' also want
around them people they can trust
whose ideas are fundamentally the
same. That doesn't mean that they
always agree. But they must feel
that the other person's , approach
is an honest approach and that
he will give you an honest opinion.-
