INAUGURATION
lirASHINGTON is preparing for
* * the largest, most colorful Inau
guration since Franklin Roosevelt’s
first when more than 500.000 came to
celebrate — even though »• many of
them could not pay their hotel bills
because of the country-wide bank
closings.
Although President Truman’s
inauguration will take place on
Jan. 20, the celebrations will last
for a week, from Jan. 16-23.
Washington’s clubs embassies
and legations will have open
house and receptions for visitors;
der'rhner.t stores will put on
special displays; night clubs will
have sueclal shows; all of Wash-
ingteu's sh at-sccing attractions
will be open (’ay and night; the
Frc: tm Train will be in town—
and tl 2 Smithsonian Institution
will stage a special exhibit of
gowns worn by Presidents’ wives
at other inau urals.
The week-long celebration, which
is expected to bring 750.006 to the
Capitol, will be a gay, showy affair
becauce its organizer, Melvin D. Hil
dreth, is an old circus fan and has
been for 25 years the attorney for
Ringing Brothers.

Inaugural wil’ b? the SPOPOO grand-

The gay, expensive Inauguration of President Truman on Jan. 26
will be in sharp contrast to the brief and simple ceremony which
marked the 19t3 inangurr. Icn of the late President Roosevelt. This
picture was rt that lest Roosevelt inaugural and shows a rela
tively yr.re.ree liarry S. Truman standing beside his former over
burdened chief. ,
•Washington for three or four >
days are expected to spend an
average of 31C0 each.
President Truman himself is anx
ious to start his new term with n
beng-up affair. He has stated that
ho hr :es It will nc»t be too plu h or
too expensive for people to enjoy.
What he wants, he has said, is a
‘‘real people’-; inr yurat 'n.”
Tl^e great bu^L^o. of course, is
housing. Together, V*ashington's 59
licensed hotels have only 12,000
rooms. The Innuyu-r.l housini com
mittee is e.-rpected to get 100,000
spare rooms in private homes. It also
will as!: each of the embassies to take
in governors or other distinguished
guerts. Finally, Pullman trains on
sid-ngo w II be used for sleeping ac
commodations and many of the vis
itors who ’’an:' :t b'> housed in Wash
ington will stay-in Baltimore and
other nearly to vims.
