HOWE FUNERAL IS TO BE HELD IN WHITE HOUSE Death of Aid Is Seen as Personal Blow to Chief Executive. By United Press WASHINGTON, April 20—The fla* over the White House flew at half-staff today for Louis McHenry Howe, the little man who put Franklin D. Roosevelt into the nat* m’s highest office and whose loss will be felt keenly by the President in the 1936 political campaign. Col. Howe, who rejoiced in the title of “Franklin’s no man," died quietly Saturday night in the Naval Hospital where he had been a patient since last fall. His death comes as a direct personal blow to the chief executive, for Col. Howe was his political mentor for 25 years. His passing means that for the first time since he entered public life as an obscure state Senator from the rock-ribbed Republican Dutchess County, New York, Mr. Roosevelt enters the next campaign without the counsel of

the one individual whose advice he valued above all others. A White House announcement said funeral services for Col. Howe would be held at 4 p. m. tomorrow in the East Room of the White House. Mrs. Howe and her son, Hartley, arrived at the White House last night from Fall River, Mass., and conferred with Mr. Roosevelt on funeral plans. It was expected burial would be at Fall River, Howe's home. So far as Democratic Party fortunes go, the death of Col. Howe was conceded as having no broad effect. To the President, however, the loss, it was believed, would be reflected when the time comes to map out the strategy of coming political battles. Known as the ‘‘medieval gnome” because of his dwarfed and careless appearance, Col. Howe, nevertheless, won the respect and admiration of those with whom he dealt. Col. Howe joined Mr. Roosevelt when the latter was in the New York Legislature and fighting Tammany Hall. Later he came to Washington when his chief was named Assistant Secretary of the Navy by President Wilson. When Mr. Roosevelt was stricken with infantile paralysis, Col. Howe buoyed him with the philosophy that a man might be down but he never is out. Illness struck the little secretary down soon after he came to Washington as first secretary to President Roosevelt.
