S VACANCIES ON
D. COMMITTEE

Leaders Of the House, partic-
ularly those interested In the
affairs of the National Capital,
are already giving serious con-
sideration to filling the vacancies
which will exist on the District
Committee when the House con-
venes in regular session Deem
Der 8.
The personnel of the com
mittee win be radically different
from that which handled legisla
ton affecting washington dur.
ing the last Congress. Probably
at least so per cent Of the mem.
bership in the coming session VIII
be new. t
Thus far selections have not
been made. but the Committee on
Committees, which handles the
Republican choices, win soon get
down to the task Of selecting the
new members of that party, and
the Democratic members OF the
Ways and Means COMMITTEE Will
within a few days choose the
new Democratic members.
Six Are New
Death and the mischances Of
politics have created six vacan.
cies on the committee. Represen-
tative Henry r. Rathbone Of
Illinois died last year.
Others who will not serve on
the committee in the next SEES
sion because Of being no longer
in the House are Representatives
Thomas L. Blanton Of Texas
George H. Combs, jr, Of Mis-
souri,: william P. Cole, ir, OF
Maryland, and Ralph Gilbert OF
Kentucky, Democrats, and Henry
L. Bowles Of Massachusetts,, Re
publican. Rathbone was also a
Republican.
In addition to these members
whose retirement from the com
mittee was more or less involtln
tary, several of the present mem
bers wish to be relieved Of the
assignment. Also a few are ex
pected to be shifted in the gen
eral realignment due to the ap
Tointment Of the full committee
slate for the new Congress,
Wants To Quit
Representative Charles L. Un'
derhill Of Massachusetts, has an.
nounced hiatt he would like to
conclude his sreviceS on the com
mittee and probably will be taken
off the committee. A similar an
nouncement has been made by
Representative Ernest w. Gibson
of Vermont, chairman Of the sub
committee which investigated pc.
lice conditions and which Is ex-
pected to report in December.
Gibson says the work occupies too
much of his time.
Another member who may re-
tire from the District Committee
because of his personal wishes is
Representative Frank L. Bowman
of West Virginia. Bowman Is re-
luctant to leave the local com.
mittee, but he is in line for the
craftsmanship of another commit
tie, and If he gets it. will not have
the time required for service on
the District group.

1 Farewell Fete
The fete hadla touch OF pathos
from the very fact that it was
the last of the hardy ANIMALS OF
this administration. Yet it was
- merry party, since every
body apparently knew every
body else. And it had the
picturesque quality of any
gathering in which two-thirds
Of the men are in uniform and
half of the rest wear glitterlng
decorations.
Although full dress has been
ssauthorized" for Army officers
on State occasions, it was OBJ
vious that it had not been "or-
dered," for excepting the White
House aides, who have always
had the privilege of dressing up
in gold lace and brass buttons,
. few retired colonels and gen.
erals seemed to be the only
ones to prefer "blues" to the
familiar olive drab.
] Colorful Groups
Foreign military and naval at
taches-the only diplomats to be
invited to any of the White
House receptions except their
own-contributed real color to the
picture in a variety Of smart
uniforms, the scarlet coats of
the Britishers being especially
conspicuous.
when they made their cers-
Ynonial descent of the stairway,
the President and Mrs. Coolidge
were followed by the most COM
plete Cabinet group which has
graced any of the state recep-
sfions of the year. Mrs. Dwight
Davis. wife of the Secretary OF
War, who is on the sick list,
was the only absentee.
Secretary Davis walked with
the Secretary of the Treasury,
Mr.. Mellon, the two following in
the wake of the Vice President
and Mrs. Dawes and the Secre-
tary of State and Mrs. Kellogg.
Then came Attorney General and
Mrs. Sargent, Postmaster Cen
eral and Mrs. New, the Secretary
of the Navy and Mrs. Wilbur,
the Secretary of Agriculture and
Mrs. Jardine, with the Secretary
OF the Interior, Mr.. West, and
the Secretary Of Labor and Mrs.
Davis, the Secretary to the Presi-
dent and Mrs. Sanders bringing
the little procession to a close.
Mrs. Coolidge wore one of her
most becoming gowns, a simple,
graceful model of powder blue
velvet straight of line and un-
trimmed save for a bit of rhine
stone embroidery about the decol-
tage. The top of the very long
court train was cut in a deep v.
which was outlined in the EN-.
broidery and at the end the train
divided into two rounded panels
showing a bit OF the silver cloth
lining. For ornaments the First
Lady wore a long string of
pearls and pearl and diamond
earrings. Long white gloves COM
spIeted her costume.

Shows Her Medals

She wore her husbands medals,
D dozen Of them, pinned on her
breast, his miniature hung on a
chain about her throat and car
ried his portrait tucked under
her cape.
Mrs. Black came from Atlantic
City to attend the reception.
Asked where her home was, she
replied ''In Heaven" but from
her alertness and youthful en-
thusiasm, it appeared that she
was still far from home.
