They agreed that his body might lie in state in the Capitol Rotunda for three hours where the public could view it. Later a simple service would be held at All Souls' Unitarian Church on 16th Street where Mr. Taft regularly worshipped. The sons left the White House to motor across the Potomac with Col.

Work of destroying the filling station on the triangular piece of ground opposite the Weld Boat House will begin on May 1, when the station operator's contract expires.
