WASHINGTON. d. c., March =
scramble for office or the scramble
for Federal patronage which we have
with us all the time in varied IN
dignified forms, but the scramble for
social recognition among the fem
inine section of the diplomatic corps,
aided and allotted by atremor OF
mild excitement among the male sec
ton.
1t is not to be inferred that this
scramble is at all undignified, nor
the excitement other than very mild
indeed; for the diplomatic corps sell
dom unbends from its sense of Off
cial Importance or reveals more than
the most superficial anxiety over So
cial affairs. That is part of the
game of diplomacy TO care very
much about things and yet not to
let that regard appear on the sur
face. Still. the mental scramble and
mild excitement are there, and un-
mistallable to experienced observers.
In years gone by the inaugural
ball mas served as an introduction
for the diplomatic folk to the mem
bers of the nav administration. That
function eliminated it looks very
much as if, in the near future, Mrs
Wilson would feel called upon to
give a presidential 'at home This

the inaugural ball. Invitations have
