MRS ROOSEVELT’S VISIT
(Rec. 7 p.m.) BOSTON, October 21. The Christian Science Monitor’s Washington correspondent says that Mrs Roosevelt, although she dislikes restrictions on her freedom, will abide by the censor’s rules. The time and means of her departure for England will remain a military secret. This will be her first trip across an ocean since she came to the White House nearly 10 years ago. The President’s wife will not go to Buckingham Palace as a state visitor because she does not hold any United States official position, desr> ! ‘e her many semi-official activities and frequent reference to her as “AssistantPresident.” She will doubtless use the opportunity to ascertain what Britain has done to meet the social upsets which the United States has only begun to feel. She indicated recently her special concern at the increase in juvenile delinquency and the absence of central kitchens, day care centres and other facilities for working mothers, which war’s impact caused Britain to meet many months ago.
