Chief Justice White and Mr. JJarding walked out to the front of the platform together, as the marine band, the president's own, played the national anthem. Then the oath was administered and the new president began his inaugur al address, reading from manuscript but making his pdints with vigorous gestures that awakened repeated.periods of applause* . Visit to Senate The president's visit to the senate chamber followed immediately the conclusion ef the address- He had made, known his intentions to a few of "the" leaders and. the senate was waiting in special executive session to receive him.

I Submission of the -cabinet selections was prefaced by a brief explan!ation, in which the new chief executive suggested that good relations between executive and legislative branches might be cemented by the element of personal contact. He read from a memorandum the names of [the men he had selected tor his om| cial circle of counsellors. Within 20 | minutes after his departure all the ! nominations had been confirmed. f r In personally appearing before the * upper branch of congress in executive [session President Harding harked f back to a precedent established in the [earliest administrations but disregarded ever since. i Mr. Wilson observed the custom of 'personally addressing'the senate and [house when they were in session with [open doors, but no president in a century had gone before either at a secret sitting.
