Political Change-Over
Jack Kennedys to Move
To ‘Eisenhower Place’
EDITOR’S NOTE: A change
in presidents has significance
for the whole world. But in
the nation’s capital, where
John F. Kennedy has lived for
14 years and where the big
event will take place. * has
special interest. Here's a re-
port on Washington's reaction
to a short but important move
by one of its leading residents.
By ARTHUR EDSON -
WASHINGTON (AP)—Well, the
V big news here this holiday season
is that the John F Kennedy* are
all set do move down the road
a piece, a little over a mile near-
er town.
For the Kennedy*, for the na-
tion- and for the world that's a
mighty long and important mile
between 3307 N St., in fashionable
Georgetown, and 1600 Pennsyl-
vania Ave. where the White
House glistens with its new coat
Truman in toreador pants?
You see? The Kennedy* are
unique.
I don’t know how it he* been
in the rest of the country. But,
around Washington more news,
paper space appears to have been
given the Kennedy ladies, Jacque,
lin and Caroline, than Kennedy
men. Jolin F and John F. Jr.
One reason has been that John
F Jr., being only a month old,
hasn't said much worth reporting.
Caroline, at 3. hasn't said much
either, but she's a honey, irresist-
ible to photographers.
Pictorially, a man who has
merely been appointed to the
Cabinet can’t hope to compete .
with Caroline.
Mrs K. Gets Publicity
As president-elect, John F. has
been the subject of reams of copy.
But in Washington this has bare-
of paint V
Although the move doesn't look
like much on the map, it has cost
Kennedy four years of steady
work, constant travel, incessant
speech making and a big bundle Porters
