Marshall To Take Oath Tomorrow
WASHINGTON, (AP) Gen. George C. Marshall will take his oath as secretary of state tomorrow at the White House. The exact hour will depend upon Marshall's arrival in Washington.
He was scheduled to be sworn in at 11 a.m. today, but bad weather forced his plane to land at Chicago on a flight from the West Coast.
Presidential Secretary Charles G. Ross told a news conference of the change in plans. He said:
"It will be heard sometime tomorrow, depending on the time of the arrival of General Marshall."
Ross said the President has not talked personally with Marshall and the White House did not know whether the general would take a train or resume his flight when the weather lifted.
In Chicago, Marshall told newsmen he probably would continue his trip by train.
