GROVES WASHINGTON. March 5 The War Department offices in the State, War and Navy Building were thronged this morning when Hon John W. Weeks took the oath of office as Secretary of War. Those familiar with similar ceremonies in the past said that the gathering was unprecedented, both in the number and in the distinction of those who composed it. Promptly at 10 Sec Weeks, accompanied bv Justice McReynolds of the Supreme Court.

Newton D. Baker, the retiring Secretary of War; Gen Peyton C. March, the chief of staff: Gen John J. Pershing, and Gen John A. Lejeune of the Marine Corps, entered the reception room of the Secretary's suite.

The party grouped itself about the flower-laden, flat-topped desk while the oath was administered. The form was as follows: John W. Weeks of Massachusetts, appointed Secretary of War of tha United States, do solemnly swear that will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies foreign and domestic: that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter; so help me God" Friends Filed Past for Half Hour The new Secretary made no speech after the oath had been administered.

LARDNER (Copyright. 1921. Bell Syndicate. Inc.) On a Larger Stage In this scene the Capitol in its grandeur is the background. Its eastern steps are the stage.

The auditorium is the spacious esplanade. With Senate and House office buildings shining in their marble on either hand and with the gold-domed Library of Congress at the farther side. A befitting little temple resting on four Corinthian columns has been erected on the steps. There the inauguration will take place, with members of the press standing down below, like Saul of Tarsus when he was taught at the feet of Gamaliel. In strict accordance with the edict for economy, there is no grandstand this year.

His arraignment of war profiteering and his implied criticism of the Administration for not having laid a confiscatory tax on all war profits are among the surprises of the address.

Moreover his reference to social, economic and industrial justice hardly fall short of Roosevelt'aBull Moose platform. The Harding Administration is not roaring in the index at least for standpatism. It leaves the impression on the far of a strong undercurrent for proressism. Also it did not clearly appear to go beyond the Senate reservations on the treaty. The auspicious sunshine has rested like a spotlight on the left side of the President's face throughout his speech.

Now he lifts bis hand and the sun falls full in his face as he looks Heavenward to implore divine guidance and to pledge himself to God and country. This cold record of it may sound melodramatic.
