What a great American sport, la the press conference! It's a three cornered fox hunt some of the pursuers hoping the fos gets the breaks, others bent upon running him into a trap, and still others Join ing In the fun (or what they get out of It. Mrs. Roosevelt's conferences are no exception. Try and put the First Lady on the spot! It simply can't be done, even by the 35 or more experienced ladles who crowd her drawing room on press conference days. Battling a heavy cold, and obviously under the strain of fatigue, Mrs. Roosevelt today, kept smiling, and about two jumps ahead of her most relent let Interrogators. Today she did a neat piece of fenc ing with a stern fared, middle aged feminist reporter. How thla woman worked on the "equal pay for equal work" angle! Question after question came both from the woman herself and her little group, who bad a def inite goal in mind. They were going to settle the married woman's right to work for once and for all. If not, Mrs. Roosevelt would be the one to answer for It, not they. A born diplomat as well as an ex perienced politician, the chief execu tive's wife disposed of the subject without fanning the flame on either side of the controversy. She emerged. still the recognized champion of the woman's cause, and a humanitarian. Of course, she believed In women receiving equal pay for equal work. Of course, she had no sympathy for any inefficient person, man or woman wanting to take the Job of an effici ent one. On the other hand there were emergency problems which must be met at the present time. She could, she said, also sympathize with the bitterness in the heart of a moth er with a house of hungry children, as she regarded the childless couple I HAS HEAVY A veritable blizzard has been rag ing in Klamath Falls, according to C. L. Hopkins, manager of the local Firestone station, who with Mrs. Hop kins, returned from that city Sat urday afternoon. Hopkins reports a foot of snow in Klamath Falls, with ice on the streets, and snow still falling Sat urday. From Klamath Falls there is snow over the entire route to the Junction, near Ashland, ranging from four to six inches on this side of the Oroensprlngs, to. 18 Inches in the higher spots. He advised all motorists making the trip to carry chains, and to drive slowly and carefully, especially on the turns and down grades, and warned against the sudden applica tion of brakes on the ice or snow, as thla, he stated, would immediately result In a skid. Motorists were also advised to carry a shovel and a flashlight,, for use in case of acci dents. Snow plows are on duty In the Oreensprlnga as In the Slsklyous, and the roads will be kept open to travel, and with due precaution, no trouble need be encountered, Hopkins said. Mrs. Frame lo Seattle Mrs. R. W. Frame left yesterday by train for Seattle. next door door earning two incomes, when her own family had none. There was a further smoothing off of rough edges, and the more Intense ladles of the press left the conference much pleased If a little bewildered. Mra. Caroline O'Day, new represen- tatlve-at-large from New York t"s a guest at the conference. She look ed more chic than ever in a black drew with gold clips and buckle. suede oxfords and a hat. tipped at sn angle that only this smart lady can attain. Introduced to the reporters by Mra. Roosevelt, Mrs. O'Day was deluged with questions too. Whst committees did she wish to serve upon in con gress? Was alia going to present any resolutions based upon her recent New York .mmigratlon problem sur vey? And dozens of others, some of which ere a trifle embarrassing to a novice In the congressional ranks. Nevertheless. Mrs. O'Day obliged with direct answers, some of which were declared "off the record" by her friend, the First Lady who la still solicitous that her "candidate" will get off to the beat possible start. The biggest news to Oregonians from Washington today Is the birth of a daughter to Congressman and Mrs. James A. Mott at six o'c'oek this morning. This is the third daugh ter now in the Mott family. In an interview with the Washing ton Post, Congressman Mott recon ciled the fact that the baby wasn't a boy (as ordered) with a proud pa tern a 1 prediction that she would be the "first woman president of the United States". Told of the incident at her press conference today, Mrs. Roosevelt laughed and added that the country might possibly be ready to accept a woman for president by the time the young lady reached her maturity In 1969. HEAVY SNOW REP0R1ED IN HIGHER LEVELS AS VALLEY FLAKES MELT Valley residents, among them ski ing fans whose hopes were lifted for flue snort In the mountains, saw a steady fall of snow throughout the entire valley Saturday, which ineltod except In the foothills almost as soon aa It touched the ground. The storm was pronounced by the weatherman last night aa general, although the enow varied consider ably In "dryness" with differences In altitude. The greatest depth at any one time on the ground In Medford Saturday was recorded by the weath erman aa JS of an Inch, but reports from Ashland, Jacksonville and oth er high parts of the valley Indicated that the depth there reached several Inches. . - 8tat police said nearly five Inches of snow fell on the slsklyous and Oreensprlngs Saturday, but that the roads, while slick, were being kept clear with gradera. The flakes on these mountains now He well over 30 Inches deep. Telephone lines to un ion creek were down yeatorday, but at the last reports o. depth of twenty Inches was bolng steadily Increased. Higher, In the oovwnment camp area, the 10-foot mark has been reached, according to the park service. L READY SOON FOR CITY PARK HERE Under the direction of the F".ynn Electric company here, the beautiful j Palm memorial fountain in the city park is rapidly nearlng completion, i it was learned today. The main feature of the fountatn ! Is the marble figure of a young man. ; playing with his two cocker span- ' lela.
