Mrs. Sara Delano Roosevelt, still charming and gracious at 80, stops for a moment during the festivities at the President's birthday ball in New York, where she was the guest of honour, to chat with Colonel Edward M. House, the American statesman who was the principal adviser, to the war President, Woodrow Wilson
Too stunned is cry, Mrs. Dorothy Sherwood (left) with matron, hears a Newburgh, N. Y. judge sentence her to death for the "mercy" drowning of her son. Although the jury recommended her to mercy, their verdict of first degree murder carried a mandatory death sentence and now her only hope for life rests in the plea to Governor Lehman
One of America's youngest mothers is Mrs. Daniel Gonzales of Port Arthur, Texas, shown smiling as her seven-pound sen nestles at her shoulder.
When this picture was taken at Baton Rouge, La. the late Governor Oscar K. Allen and the late Huey P Loag were at the the height of their power as head of Loriaisux's strongest political machine. The sudden death of Governor Allen. causes doubt that a leader can be found who is strong enough to hold the Long ma- chine together.
