MARION TIFFANY
MAY TELL NEWS.
There is rumor going about
Newport to the effect that Marion
is on the verge OF making a very
important announcement - but far
be it from me to spoil any sur
prises.
Marion's younger sister. Theodore,
has never attained the social fame
which has marked Marion's career
in the smart sets. but then Theo-
dora has not affected different"
frocks and gowns. The more I
think of bizarre attire the more /
am convinced it is a great social
asset. Marion Tiffany and Mrs.
Rogers Benjamin Pratt are two
shining examples, Mrs. Frederick r
Harris, now in Washington. is an
other. How about it?
The mere fact that the Albert "a
briskie Grays have taken the very
imposing house at II East Seventy
second street. in New York. for their
future abode does not mean Mrs.
Gray will take any more interest in
society in the days to come than
she has in the past.
They lived in Washington for quite
while during the war period, and
society hardly knew they were here.
Society has never been able to un-
derstand Mrs. Gray. She is so un-
like her mother. the late Mrs. Stuy-
vesant Fish. The late leader of
American society adored the cIashing
Of the social Cymbals and was never
so happy as when she was acting
as hostess at a dinner or dance which
caused all her guests to gaze in awe
at the lavishness Of her hospitality.
Mrs. Gray. who was Marian Fish,

in the haunts OF the smart sets and.

Mr.. Gompers Scores

HE FACT must be admitted that Samuel
Gompers, veteran head Of the American
Federation of Labor made an adroit move
when he called on the industrial conference.
OF which both he and Judge Gary are mem
bers, to arbitrate the steel strike II was q
Dold move to make, and it is no wonder that
IT took the breath OF the capitalists who sit
with him as feIlow-conferees.
fresloent wilson may not have called this
conference for the purpose OF organizing an
arbitration board to deal with any jndi-
Vloual case of capital and labor conflict. In
1act. his communication to his own ap-
polntees indicates clearly that they would
pe charged with the general duty of finding
means or remedying the unrest which is
manifest throughout the whole country.
But II mas fallen to the lot Of Mr. Com
pe's 10 put the conference to a test His
resolution Will show whether or not the as
semblage regards itself as bodv called to-
sether TO engage itself with distractions or
~ so INTO concrete cases such as the steel
~ goes without saying that if the
cohicrees should find means Of ending the
slrlhe now in progress of persuading the
steer companies TO arbitrate and Of meeting
ispor on It's own ground, 1t would give agree
ap!e evidence to the country Of it's useful
ness.

t"een the steel companies and their union

aroltratlon proposals. They have insisted
there was but one real issue involved IN N.
hght and that was the question of the omen
shop' question, to their mind about which
mere IS nothing to arbitrate. Labor, on tho
other hand. repeatedly has proposed this
method Of settling the difficulty.
IL Will be interesting to observe the course
"hich the companies might take IL the in.
oustrlai conference should agree with Mr.
Gompers and record itself in favor -, -,
tration. Such action, OF course would ~,
no binding effect on either the steel com
panles or Judge Gary. as a member Of IN,

ers. IN this instance. in an exceedingly am
