Mrs. Roosevelt To Leave White House Starts Packing Os Personal Effects Washington, April 16 —(UP) — Mre. Franklin D. Roosevelt, with the stoic calm that carried her through a weekend of grief, today began packing her family’s pensonI al effects preparatory to moving , from her home of -the past 12 years, i IMrs. Roosevelt returned to the , White House last night from the . Hyde Park funeral services for her . husband. Orders were given to the housekeeping staff to have everything ready to move by Saturday, if possible. The .task will not 'be easy. Throughout the yeans the President and Mrs. Roosevelt and their five children acquired many personal possessions. Mr. Roosevelt was a lover of knick-knacks and curios, all of which must be picked up a-nd packed before President Truman and his family move in. IThe Trumans are expected to occupy the White House the first of next week. , Tile five room, $l2O a month apartment in which they now are living already has -been rented to someone else. They are expected to i m'ove about the middle of the week 1 to Blair house, the century old mansion diagonally across Pennsyl- ; vania avenue from the Presidential • mansion. o _______ PRESIDENTTRUMAN (Continued From Page One) when he has his first important . speech to deliver. “Naturally 1 brought him some messages from the prime minister ; telling him how gratified we are about the very close relations that exist between us in all our affairs.” It was the new president’s first ' full-dress foray into the field of foreign affairs —a field which will occupy much of his time in coming months. He returned from the burial services at Hyde Park ; for President. Roosevelt last night to begin his first full day as the nation’s chief executive. Before the San Francisco conference on world organization, opens next week. Mr. Truman ; I 11 ' ...'U* CAR FEED WHEAT Enroute BURK ELEVATOR CO. Phone 25 or 886

TOKYO ABLAZE (Continued From Pag* On«) miles. "It accompantehed more than we expected,” a conservative 21st bomber command review of the attack said. Coupled with the original fire raid March 9, Saturday's attack completed the devastation of 27% square miles—l7,6so acres —of the center of Tokyo. In round figures, Saturday’s raid alone knocked out 6,850 acres or 296,000,000 square feet. Tokyo broadcasts said fires spread Saturday to the Mikado's palace aud other imperial buildings. Fires s-till were raging in Tokyo when today’s huge armada arrived over the capital to, in the words of an official announcement, “continue the strategic destruction of Japanese industries.” Brig. Gen. John H. Davies of Piedmont, Calif., commander of Tinian-based B-295, said the Superfortresses “bumped into a terrific barrage of flak” over the capital. “They stayed right on the attack, though, and dropped their bombs right on the target,” he said. The B-29s bombed from altitudes of 7,000 to 10,000 feet. A Japanese communique said a "considerable number” of fires was started, but all were controlled by 5 a. m. Other Tokyo broadcasts asserted that the Soviet embassy was destroyed by fire. Fifty-five Superfortresses were shot down by Japanese night fighters, Tokyo claimed, and another 50 damaged. o WIETFELDT FUNERAL (Continued Fro-m Page One) Mrs. Vera Schuller, Dowagiac, Mich.; Mrs. Frieda Hockemeyer and Mrs. Ruth Linnemeier, both of Allen county; two brothers, William, Merrill, Mich., and Otto, Fort Wayne; four sisters, Mrs. Sophia Berning, Mrs. Amelia Witte aud Mrs. Emma Knipstein, all of Fort Wayne, and Mrs. Louise Zwick, Lincoln, Nebr., aud nine grandchildren. Two brothers and two -sisters are deceased. The body has been returned from tile Zwick funeral home to the residence. 0 Over 75 percent of the nation’s bentgrass seed is grown in Oregon. > 0— Appolntnu-nt of Executor l-lHiate IVo. 4154 Notice is hereby given, That Hie undersigwed has been appointed Ex-eeu't-or of the estate of Louisa Miller, late of Adaim-s County, deceased. The extaite is probably solvent. Walter, Dei-tse-h, Exeoutor Feed 1,. Litterer, Attorney 4/9 1945. Apr! 10-17-24 will: 1. Continue talks—probably today—with British foreign secretary Anthony Eden, whose government is anxious to explore the intentions of the new administration in the foreign field. 2. Hold similar talks with Soviet foreign commissar V. M. Molotov now that Marshal Josef Stalin has decided, at Mr. Truman's suggestion, to send him to the San Francisco conference. 3. Meet some of the foreign • ministers and prime ministers of the United Nations as they pass through here enroute to San Francisco. All are as anxious as Eden and Molotov to sound him out and determine how far they can expect to “carry on” Mr. Roosevelt's plans. 4. Consult with the U. S. delegates to the San Francisco conference. 4 5. Plunge into the bitter controversy over formation of a new Polish government. Mr, Roosevelt had failed before his death to break the big three deadlock on this important question.

NINHH ARMY'S (Continued From Page One) the western outskirts of Leipzig, Germany’s greatest remaining military base. Lt, Gen George S. Patton’s American third army outflanked - Leipzig with a mile-an-hour arm- ; ored drive that all but enveloped the big textile and communications center of Chemnitz, 38 miles to the southwest. A sensational but wholly tini confirmed report relayed by the Nazi-controlled Scandinavian tele- ; graph bureau in Stockholm said i Patton’s tanks had crashed on 34 miles beyond Chemnitz to reach Dresden, 53 miles from the I Red army lines on the Neiss. An equally unsubstantiated Brussels radio report said third army troops also had broken across the Czechoslovak border at an undisclosed point south of Chemnitz, perhaps 75 miles from Prague. Latest official information from the third army front placed Patton's vanguards in Hos, 54 miles southwest of Chemnitz and eight miles west of the Czechoslovak frontier. Another column five miles to the south reached the Schwarzenbach area, seven miles from the border. 0 Operators drilling for oil and gas in 1944 penetrated the earth’s crust a total of 1,655,240 feet, or 332.43 miles.
