Gnard at Capital
WASHINGTON, Jan. SO UP)
The secret service reported to
day that their agents and local
police had arrested an unidenti
fied man, carrying a loaded re
volver, in the square fronting
the White Bouse just before
President Roosevelt returned to
day from taking the oath at the
capital.
The man was sent to the hos
pital for observation after being
questioned. Secret service offi
cials would not comment on the
report the man was armed, but
other authoritative sources con
firmed it.
Secret service officials said
later that the man was a Wash
ington barber who was wearing
an American Legion uniform
and who told them that he had
helped guard the president four
years ago. He said, the secret
service asserted, that his com
mander had sent him down to
help again this year. They said
they would not give out his
name, pending a check of his
story.

From Mr. Roosevelt Wlllkle
received a penned note to Prime
Minister Churchill. The mes
sage, carrying the greeting
"Dear Churchill," said that the
1940 republican nominee for
president was trying to keep
politics out of the American de-
tense program. It also ex-
pressed the wish that Britain
would weather the storm of
war.
Wlllkle said that his confer
ences with the president and
Hull were "very pleasant" and
added that they had "extend
ed every courtesy" for his
forthcoming trip.
Administration leaders said
they thought Willkie's visit to
the white house would tend to
bolster republican support of
the lend-lease measure, even
though Willkie suggested three
modifications a time limit on
the extraordinary powers grant
ed the president, congressional
retention of the "purse strings"
and a section-by-section study
to determine whether all the
authority conferred on the
chief executive was necessary.
