FROM
Peg in Washington
Washington. D.C, August 80.
Dear Marian
Visitors to the Department of th
Interior are always interested In see
ing the private office of the Secretary
and Oregonlans particularly take time
to study its features. Since I frequent
ly have the pleasure of showing the
room to our callers, perhaps I should
tell you a bit, about it
First, as to size. It is a high eeiling
.ed room 24x40, and the oak panelled
walls add to its impreuiveneu. An
arched ceiling of cream color plaster
has a decorative sculptured effect. The
huge bowls of the chsndellers suspend
ed from the ceiling at either end of
the room are of Italian marble, faintly
pink and delicately veined, set in
bronze.
The Persisn rug is deep blue with
a pattern of rose, beige and lighter
blue, and the dark blue leather of the
upholstery on davenports snd chairs
' repeats the background color of the
rug. The uncovered portion of .the
floor reveals a polished wide board
hardwood with wooden pegs. Draper
ies are a warm copper tone, with the
sheen of silk. The pale gray marble
and white bas relief around the fire
place contrast with a well burnished
, brass firebox, andirons and fireset.
In one corner, a display of flags of
the territories in which the department
Is interested attracts special attention.
On either side of the fireplsce are th
American flag and the Secretary's flag.
The latter is a deep sky blue with gold,
with the emblem of the buffalo In th
replica of the seal in the center. Th
animal is always referred to as "Teddy
Roosevelt's buffalo." In another cor
ner, a large screen has an overall de
sign of Hawaiian foliage, as It is a
greatly enlarged photograph of ferns,
leaves and vines pictured in one of the
parks of Hswaii. The picture panels,
finished In black and silver sre set in
an aluminum frame, which makes a
striking treatment that many visitors
hsve noted carefully planning to copy
the idea In some similar manner. In
the winter the screen shields the box
of firewood for the fireplsce. I must
report that we hsve never used the
Ufclwaa .rtudlo pterin)

ITS tut Fair tim for th capital '
so, few other events are calendared
for th coming week. Salem folk

ernoon Meet, th nightly show, and

Governor and Mrs. Paul L. Patterson

fireplace since moving In last January,
but this coming winter should be a
different story.
At one end of the room 4s a confer
ence table, davenports snd chairs sre
against the wall opposite the fireplace.
In front of the fireplace is a long dav
enport and what one would call a
coffee table in a home, but which goes
unused; and at the other end of the
room is the five-foot deep desk of the
Secretary. Needless to say, it takes a
bit of a toss to get the papers and docu
ments in the "outgoing" box on the
far side of the desk. Back of the desk
hangs a painting of Indians breaking
camp, but soon we will have a large
picture of Crater Lake" to hang in its
stead, and another Oregon scene for
the opposite end of the room. At this
opposite end of the office, a door opens
into the chief elerk's office snd the
story goes that an earlier Secretary
when calling a stsff member In for a
lecture or reprimand used to make the
employe come In through the clerk's
door so thst he had to walk the length
of the room to approach the Secretary's
desk. Naturally that routine does not
follow with Secretary Douglas McKsy.
In fsct, the staff members now usually
come through my office which is just
the other side of swinging doors from
the end of the room where the Secre
tary's desk Is located and I get a chance
for a quick hello or a brief chat on
their way into the private office. There
is a cordial, friendly and cooperative
attitude between the eight top assist
ants of the secretariat and the Secre
tary and in addtlon to the regular staff
meeting held every Monday morning,
the group get together for lunch each
Monday to continue informal discus- .
sions of the departmental program and
problems.
I must add that we have a balcony
with an excellent view of memorials,
psrks, rivers and Virginia hills, reach
ed through doors leading out of either
end of the Secretary's office, and it
would be a nice place for some deck
chairs. If anyone had time for loafing.
But there's nary a chair there.
Sincerely,
fECy
