Steady rain drenched the crowds assembled for the ceremonial inauguration of President F. D. Roosevelt here to-day, and the temperature was scarcely above freezing point.

The national parade was marked by simplicity, speed and efficiency, in contrast to other recent inauguration | ceremonies, which were too cumbersome and too long.
The ceremonies to-day were confined to the disciplined representatives of the civil Government and of the nation's armed forces. The first division of the parade included members of every military unit in the country, cadets from every training school and the Governors of the 48 states, in the order in which they ratified the American Constitution. These were headed by Mr. James Farley, Postmaster General.

The second division of the pro- cession was almost entirely military and naval,
But 400 members of the civilian Conservation
Corps, In uniform, and equipped with picks, shovels and
axes, were included. 700 NOTABLE GUESTS There were 700 notable guests at the White House, who assembled shortly before the ceremonies com- menced and who partook of a stand- up meal of cold meats, sandwiches, lee ercam nnd coffee,
But at the conclusion of the paraste 3,000 guests had tea at the White House, where the President mode a brief appearance, Mrs. Roosevelt, however, bore the brunt of the entertaining.
The President retired early to bed in the evening, after a tiring day. Moreover, despite the drenching.
cold rain, he had refused to take the path of office inside the capitol. Instead he stood on the platform, with its sodden decorations, while thou- sands watched and listened.
Urged to take the oath in shelter, President Roosevelt .waved a hand towards the great crowd standing slient in the rain. "If they can take It, I can take it too," he said.
It was the first time in history that four
generations of the President's funily have been present at an in- auguration.Reuter.
