Scope and content
Anna Roosevelt Boettiger, only daughter of President and Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt, admires a large bouquet of sweetpeas and snapdragons she received from Mr. C.H. Schartow during a Junior Women's Club luncheon in her honor at the Hotel Winthrop on May 18, 1937. Mr. Schartow, then Executive Secretary to Mayor George A. Smitley, relayed a message of greetings from Mayor Smitley and the City of Tacoma. Mrs. Boettiger addressed the 300 women present and spoke highly of the Northwest, relating interesting incidents of her mother's recent trip to Seattle. This was Mrs. Boettiger's first visit to Tacoma. (T.Times, 5-19-37, p. 1, 9). ALBUM 1. (Additional information provided by a reader)
