Mrs. Roosevelt Adroit
In Fencing With Press
Says Mary Griner Kelly
By Mary Grelner Kelly
WASHINGTON. (Special Corra
spondence.) 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

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.

There was a further smoothing off
of rough edges, and the more Intense

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.
