LABOR VICTORY
BLOW TO HIGH
BRITISH SOCIETY
Fear Social WhirI viii Be
Curbed by Poverty of
Ministers.
BY STEWART BROWN
United Press staff Correspondent

LONDON, June 27.-English
society matrons inwardly and sill
emily are disappointed at the out
come of the British election.
They foresee a future let-dOwn IN
the number and character Of off,
cial entertainments. They are
afraid the social Whirl will degen-
crate into a social swish.
It takes gold and plenty Of It to
keep the social pot burning.
The majority of the Laborite min
isters are frank and admit they
haven't got the golden stirring rod.
Sacrificed Large Income
Most Of them sacrificed larger in
comes to become members Of
Premie MacDonald's cabinet. Their
official salaries, Unaugmented by
private income (Which most Of them
haven't, are not sufficient for wide
and lavish entertaining.
Hence during the life of the labor
cabinet English society matrons are
looking forward to a dull time as far
as high governmental and official
functions are COIiC6A liCu-
Many Of the new ministers have
been loath to take up residence IN
the official quarters because of the
added expense.
It. was at first reported that even
Macdonald did not want to move
into 10 Downing street, official home
Of ali prime ministers, and that he
was considering just using 1t for his
town Office.
But he later decided to leave his
breezy country home at Hampstead
and make his home at Whitehall in
traditional English fashion.
Philip Snowden, chancellor OF the
exchequer. has decided to move into
No. II Downing street. 1t is the
traditional official home of the head
of the treasury. although there have
been departures from the custom.
Lose Money
Official residences for the lord
chancellor and the lord privy seal
are also awaiting the decision of
the new ministers to occupy them
Macdonald. Philip Snowden and
William Graham, president of the
board of trade, were all ardent jour
nalists and made considerable
money writing for the English press.
Now that they hold official positions
this form of revenue is denied them.
J. H. Thomas. lord privy seal; j.
H. ClyneS, secretary Of state for
home affairs and Miss Margaret
Bond1eld. secretary of labor, were
earning their living as officials of
trade unions.
These salaries we're automatically
stopped with their acceptance of
cabinet posts.
