Washington, IX C, Mar. 2S-Noi
since Woodrow Wilson marched into
Washington at the head of tike Demo
cratic cohorts just twenty jean ago
tea tite Capital City expeerienced the
? sensation of being- stood on fits head,
so to speak. Just as Mr. Wilson came
into the office of President with the
determination to change everything,
so President Rooeeveit's administra
tion has adopted the pobey that what
ever needs to be done shall be done

A Political Revolution
Nothing in this slow-moving city
ever moved as raiadly as things are
moving here now. Within less than a
fortnight a real political revolution
has taken, place ?
in the order of their relative im
portance, these are not outstanding
occurrences under the new govern
ment:
U L-^. I
first: President Kooseveu mu>
been given powers such as no Presi
dent of the United States over had
except in war time . The general ap
proval expressed by people in all
parts of the country, of the delegation
to the executive at power formerly
exercised only by Congress, suggests
that there was something more than
idle talk behind the idea that a dicta
tor was needed. Old-time political
observers here say that it reflects a
general distrust of Congress It per
haps is not so much that, as it is im
patience with the slowness of Con
Second: Under the direction of j
the new President the organization
of the entire banking system of the
nation has been started along drastic,
deep-reaching lines which promise to
weed out the incompetents and crooks
in the banking business, place the
Federal Government in control of all
banks and give depositors far greater
assurance of the safety of their bank
deposits than they have ever had:
How far this program of banking re
form will go remains to be seen, but
those with long memories recall that
it was President Wilson's purpose and
that of his advisers to extend the
powers of the Federal Reserve Sys
tem so that eventually every banking
institution in the nation would be un
der full control. The war interrupt
ed that program, but it has come to
life again now.
Third: A start has been made to
r ward cutting a thousand million dol
lars a year off the Government's ex
penses, of which nearly half will come
out of funds now being spent for
veterans' relief. President RooseveltV.
firm stand against the spending of
public money on veterans whose disa
bilities are not due to their war ser
vice overrode the objections of mem
bers Of both houses of Congress, who
gave him the authority he sought to
effect that economy. '
Fourth: The legislation of beer
as a means of raising revenue, has
taken such shape that is seems prob
able that anyone with a thirst for the
malt beverage can buy it freely with
in a few weeks.
Those are the major high-lights of
the work of the new administration
thus far.
Direct to the People
President Roosevelt came into of
fice believing that the people wanted
action, and he has been giving them
actum. Taking another leaf oat of
Woodrdvr Wilson's book, he has gone
over the beads of the politicians and
direct to the people, in a series of pub
lie proclamations and radio addresses,
which see?u& to have struck a respon
sive chord.
Indeed, even some of the applause
for the new President's courageous
and vigorous attitude has come from
Republican sources, The principal op
position to Mr. Roosevelt's policies has
come, in fact, fh>m within his own'
petty. It took Republican votes to

not be acted upon until Congress con
venes again in ApriL The President
and his sdvissrs are working hgrdl
and carefully on the form of legislin [
tion they want in both, matters.
? The belief that some plan for tak
ing so-called marginal lands out of
cultivation will be adopted; is grow
ing. lust how for this will follow the
domestic allotment plan which was
considered by the last Congress re
mains to he seen.
Mr. Roosvelfs program for un
employment relief is still in the shap
ing. It is understood that it will in
volve something like military enliat
nent of the unemployed, or of several
hundred thousand of them, to be put
co work on public improvements, such
is waterpower darns, flood protection
vorks and the like. . I
Washington Likes Roosevelt
There is no question that Washi
ngton likes the new President. He
las brought into public affairs a new
i Atmosphere, with which Washington
Is not familiar, but it is an atmos
j phere of activity and of friendliness.
[ lie impression which Mr. Roosevelt
nade upon the newspaper men at his
j first conference with them was a
. rood one. Not since the first few
: ?eeks of the Harding administration
f has any President permitted reporters
lo fire questions at him at wilL Mr.
Roosevelt has resumed this practice.
I greatly to the delight of the Wash
i ngton correspondents.
Social Washington has taken the
oew White House family to its arms.
Of course, the Roosevelts are not
strangers here, but there is a lot of
difference in the social status of an
Assistant Secretary of the Navy and
a President of the United States.
They move in entirely different cir
cles. There have been Presidents and
their families who were merely toler
ated in co-called "Society" because of
their official standing, but the Prank
Lin Roosevelts have a social status of
the highest, regardless of official
connection. Alice Roosevelt Longs
worth gave the cue Jo the highest cir
cles of Washington society by resum
ing her intimacy with her cousins in
the White House, while Mrs. Wood
row Wilson, another social leader of
high position, has also placed her
catchet of approval upon them. It is
not likely, therefore, that the slanders
and scandalous gossip which some of
their predecessors in the White House
have suffered will be aimed at the
Franklin Roosevelts.
The colored man who washes win
dows in the United Charities building
here is named Roosevelt Garner.
