that in view of what has happened in

in part:
Under present conditions and with

salary for the government employees
higher than the 5 and 10 per cent in
creases provided in the same measure
by the House of Representatives. This
decision was reached last night at a

la Dor leaders. consisting of three rep
resentatives from each labor organiza
tion in the city. The labor men were
told to map out their campaign thor
oughly before they so to the Senate
members. plan what they have TO say,
say il briefly and get away.
one la Dor leader told the representatives
Of the employees that when they so to the
Senate they should not appeal merely as
employees of the government. but as cIti-
zenS of the United States who were
helping in the payment of the taxes with
which the government is run. He urged
them to lay great stress on this point:
The suggestion that committee or
the conference visit the President and
have him make known his stand on
the government clerks salary increase
was not passed upon last night. 1t
was decided that more thought must
be given to such a proposition. and the
committee was advised that the matter of
seeing the President should be dis
cussed with Secretary Wilson of the
Department of Labor.

follow Baron B1rian and DR.. Won Koer-
Der into retirement
The possibility of the withdrawal
from public life of Hungary's strong
man has. however. been in the air
since before the death of Emperor
Francis Joseph. A well authenticated
story then declared that Baron Burian
vas about to be replaced by Count
t,zernin. and that Premier Tisza was
.Aso scheduled to go. According to
this story, these changes were con-
nation to weaken the predominance
which Hungary. under Count Tisza.
had acquired in the dual monarchy.
The present report of Premier Tiszas 8
impending resignation gives as the
reason differences he is alleged to have
with Count Czernin and the coalition
cabinet. The Czernin administration is
believed to have been formed primarily
to conclude delicate negotiations for an
adjustment of the differences between
Hungary and Austria. and IT is over the
details of this adjustment that Premier
risza is supposed to have disagreed
with his Austrian colleague.

There was another dancing master or
the olden time in Washington of whom
the Rambler would speak. and there
were others whose names Will come to
the minds of readers, but whom the
Rambler has forgotten. The teacher OF
whom the Rambler Is now thinking
was Prof. Munder. who held his dances
at Numbers Hall, corner of 9Th and D
streets. That was before the civil war.
In these days one sees good many
references to the 'soiree dansante' and
one might gather from the comment of
young people that they think this Is
something new. The soiree dansante
was diversion in Washington when
the people who are very old today used
to cut capers on the ballroom floor.
Prof. Munder always called his evening
dances "soiree dansante." The Ram
bier has looked up one of Prof. Nun
der's advertisements in The Star and
has found this:
"Soiree dansante: Prof. H w. Nun
