April 30.----Questions of thousands of high school and college graduates visiting Washington during the--Haster holidays are fairly jndicat-- Iive of the public mind. Back home these citizens of tomorrow hear the p'r:!g-a of the day discussed at the t fireside and usually know what "the folks are thinking." It is of im-- portance perhaps to note that these young men and women spent more of their time around the White House rather than the Capitol, during their stay . in -- Washington. _ Professional guides in charge of the tourists are the authority for the stamzement thai more queries were made thig year as to how & President lives and works than regarding the activities of Con-- gress. Considering the fact that in vestigative, rather than legislative, a¢ tivities of the House and Senate have absorbed the attention of newspaper readers over a long period, observers bhaving their fingers on the public pulse feel that the attitude of the !yonu visitors is a true index of the 'public thougbt. Because of these cont.:&nugm_ and questions agked by the coming voters, it may be of value and of interest, at least, to present in a non--pertisan 'I' how a Chief Executive s$ends his bus-- iness day. > Ordinarily the present incumbent of the White House rises early, takes a brisk walk through nearby ?I.l'kl, or th) White House grounds,'"accompa-- nied by secret service guards. He is at his desk about 8:30 or 9 o'clock. The list of appointments is placed on his desk by his secretary and the mis-- sion of visitor briefly outlined for him: On Tuesdays and Fridays the morm ing is taken up with Cabinet meetings and relatively few visitors are receiv-- ed on these days. y o e Fe: As an illustration of the time given by the-- President to personal inter-- views, a schedule of one day of the present week shows that two Senat-- ors, members of the President's party, tak called for ten minutes to discuss, pre-- tion sumably, the forthcoming-- campaign' j and the legislative situation. TheY fHo are followed by the Director of the p; Budget, who is the personal advisor of Hon the President on fiscal matters relat-- rep ing to federal expenditures and reve-- day nue.

Occasionally, if the President ;'"' is willing, p>rsonal introductions «are ' ag made by the legislators, but this prac-- /.. tice is not encouraged, as it 4s a physi-- / 3. {cal strain upon the Chief Magistrate. | de Just® at present the President must ;. find time to strike a just balance on claims and counter claims covering ve0 bills awaiting his signature or.veto.
