President Laughs At Own Mistake Washington U.R) Pres ident Eisenhower yesterday in advertently referred to the Library of Congress as "the Republican Library." He laughed heartily at his own mistake and commented with a grin that he doubtless would be accused of trying to drag the library into politics. It happened this way: A reporter at his news con ference noted that the Pres ident last week quoted from a upecch by William McKinlcy. He asked where the President had run across the speech. Mr. Eisenhower said he had read an allusion to the speech in a book about the Republican party's history. He said he then sent to the "republican Library for a copy of the whole speech. He quickly corrected this to Library of Congress. j Mrs. Eisenhower Invited to Confab Chicago iU-R) An invitation has been extended to Mrs. Dwight D. Eisenhower to substi-; tute for Vice President Richard Nixon at the convention of the National Federation of Republi can Women.

Some 2,000 women would greet Mrs. Eisenhower at the reception if she accepts the in vitation. However, Mrs. Carroll D. Kearns, federation president, said some members of the Presi dent's cabinet probably would represent the vice president if Mrs. Eisenhower was unable to attend.
