WASHINGTON LETTER
tcontinued from pare ~

The bitterness and disappoint.
ment provoked by this affair is
still felt here. To those who
have weathered the social sea-
sons in Washington, it all seems
absurd because those receptions
are nothing more than a mere
handshake and the opportunity to
parade the latest creations of the
dressmaker's art.
It is expected that President
Coolidge will give considerable
study this summer to ways and
means of saving in governmental
expenditures. The President has
already notified the War Depart
ment that they must be prepared
to trim their budgets at least
2 per cent annually. II is not the
intention of the Budget Bureau
to force such drastic cuts that the
machinery of the Government
will be put out of gear. The plan
is to cut off the expenses gradu-
ally.
Whether President Coolidge
r e aims in Washington un-
til June %, as originally plan
ned, depends largely upon his
health. He will leave the city
Saturday for Minnesota. where he
will deliver an address at the
Norse-American Centennial Jubi.
lee. If he experiences no effects
from his long journey and q
strain of public appearance, the
Chief Executive will probably re
main here until the latter part Of
the month. If extreme hot
weather sets in he will undoubt
edly expedite his departure from
Washington and establish tn,
summer capital at Swampscott
Mass.
