her cryptic volume with proper manner of address in speaking or writing to an official, when and how to call on wives of officials and many other subjects, knowledge or which is essential to ladies whose husbands are elected or appointed to government post in Washing ton.
 Following is some of the miscel laneous information contained be- tween the covers of the book:
 When giving q dinner for the Vice President or an Ambassador, tvo dates should be submitted to him for his selection before invita- tionS are gent.
 An invitation to the White House is known as a command" and "onc must go unless ill or out of town" Acceptance of a White House inyi- tation must be delivered by hand.
 The regular table of precedence is followed in determining the order Of calls upon the wives of officials. with a few exceptions. Thus. "rhe wives of Senators call first upon the President. the Vice President, Jus tices, Ambassadors, the Speaker, the President pro tenn. of the Senate and all Senators who have been longer in Washington or who. having been appointed on the same date, came from states which have been in the Union longer than their own. The Cabinet and Foreign Ministers call first upon the Senators. but precede them at social functions"
 Wives of Supreme Court Justice, Senators and all important officials have a definite day each week ''at home" and calls must be made on that day. They do not have to be made after ten, however. If unable to attend a tea or q reception, a card should be sent Also in calling the Mr. and Mrs. Brown Hypothetical card is left on each woman in the family and one of Mr. Browns for each man in the family"

New Book to Untangle CoInpli-
 Cated Social Problems

Washington, Nov. UP)-A little blue book of 22 pages destined to be better known by Washington so- ciety matrons than any literary work, ancient or contemporary, soon will be off the presses.
 It's title is Social Precedence In Washington it's author is Helen Ray Hagner. president and manag- ing director of the Helen Ray flag ner Social Bureau, Inc; and it's mis- sion is to give comfort and guidance to those who participate in the capi- tals unique social life.
 A previous volume by the same name, published in 1925, has been largely revised and augmented to produce this new edition, which will be the last word in whom to seat where when entertaining govern ment officials, foreign diplomats, distinguished non official guests or any combination thereof.
 Since Secretary of State Stimson, confronted with the embarrassing problem of deciding the social status of Mrs. Edward E. Gam, sister and official hostess of Vice President Curtis, turned thumbs down on the State Departments custom of giving advice to histesses there has been no court of last resort for Washing ton society
 First Aid to \oyices Mrs. Hagner's book provides in ] | agency unnecessary. The author does not presume to take the place of James Dunn who. as head of the State Department Protocol Division, was society's dictator of preced- ence and arbiter before Stimson's order, but does undertake 10 give advice and information which, if followed, will keep even novices out of trouble.
 The volume does not, however. mention the controversy between Mrs. Gam and Mrs. Alice Roosevelt Longworth, wife Of Speaker Long worth, over their respective social perquisites. The only advice it con- tains, which a hostess contemplating entertainment Of these two ladies at the same function might take to heart. is to avoid inviting together persons whose precedence is mat ter of controversy or doubt. The Longworths and the Curtis Cams are by no means the only | combination which must be avoided. Mrs. Hagner counsels specifically against inviting to the same dinner the Chief Justice and an Ambassa- dor, Justices of the Supreme Court and Ministers of Foreign Countries, l the Speaker Of the House and the President pro tenn. of the Senate. Furthermore. her book states, Tt is imperative for a hostess to sub init her lists of official guests to a social secretary before sending out her invitation to luncheon or din-

Jeffs and Walker Who Sat at Consoles of Capitol and Princess, Now in Business.

What happens to theatcr mu8i- cians who lose their jobs when the screen begins to talk, sing and play :?
 Thousands of New Britainites used to listen with pleasure to Will liam $, Jcffs when he was organ ist at the Capitol theater. Jefss used to be featured in the ads and the spotlight played on him as he made the pipe organ roar. Ultj- mately Jeffs was transferred by th,e Hoffman management to the Pms cess in Hartford
 Then Harry Walker of this city. understudy for Jeffs. took his placa. The tanlies came and Walker for & time played only during news reels. Then finally, d few weeks ago.. even this played out and Walk CT was without a job.
 About the same time. when the Princess in Hartford went 100 per cent talkie, Jeffs also-..was without job.
 Neither looked around for anotfl- CT musical situation.- Both had been close friends and both poolal their financial resources. They dis. covered that well-establisheI laundry business in Greenfield. Mass. could be purchased And they bought it.

 Jeffs was graduated from the London Conservatory in England He was a superlative orGanist, an l during the "earS when Sunday movies were not allowed he played the organ on Sunday in a church at Worcester

Foreign First Secretaries Undersecretarics and Assistant Secretaries (American), ', Federal Reserve, Interstate Com merce, Secretary of tn smithsonian Institution and Director of the Pan American Union"
 A full page is devoted to foot notes warning hostesSes of pitfalls in this innocent looking tabulation and counseling them not to invite at the same time two officials whose relative positions at a table might provoke ill feeling. Among the modi- flying notes are:
 'ln an embassy or legation. the Secretary of State precedes every one but the Vice President and the Chief Justice;" The Chief of Staff of the Army ranks the Chief Of Operations of the Navy, when he is full General or a Lieutenant Gen. eral;" 'The governors of states when in Washington, are placed be- low Senators at social functions
 The book explains further on about the seating of Congressmen and their wives. cabinet members and their wives and members Of all official groups in relation to others of their own particular Coterie. In the section devoted to Congress, for example. it explains:
 Senatorial Precedence
 If there are several Senators at the same dinner, the precedence is given 10 the Senator who has been in Congress the greatest number of years If several Senators are ask ed to the same dinner who were ap- pointed at the same time, precedent is given to the Senator whose state entered the Union first

 The radical-socialists, without waiting for the ministerial outline of policy, today decided unanimous ly to vote against the new govern ment and emphasized it's position by making such an adverse vote d matter of party discipline.
 This action has stiffened the op- position and narrows the premier's already scant margin of safety as it has been hoped he might have the benefit of few abstainers
 The conservative press mean while, highly approves Tardicu's refusal 10 let the party convent IS dictate to the government and warns the political leaders that par hament will face the solution if majority cannot be mustered.
 The cabinet held a long discus sion today on the ministerial deCla- ration and in the terms Of an off, cial communique found itself fin perfect unanirnity on all points at issue" This included a demand for immediate discussion of the govern ments general and foreign policy.
 Among the decisions taken this morning was that ministers will decline all invitations to banquets. luncheons and other gatherings as long as vital questions still remain to be decided.

STATE WILL ADOPT
 TURKEY STANDARD
Connecticut Native Fancy Grade
 to Be Established

Hartford Nov. 7 (AP)--The ap- preaching Of Thanksgiving brings with it the adoption of an official grade for turkeys grown in Connect icut.
 Effective on November 9. the Connecticut native fancy grade will be established by the state depart ment of agriculture at the request of the recently organized Connecti- cut Turkey Producers association.
 Birds sold under this grade will be identified by an official yellow tag issued by the state department of agriculture, which believes that the adoption of the grade will be of great assistance to Connecticut con- sumers in stopping the masquerad- ing of outside birds as Connecticut turkeys. The department believes that the price Of turkey for Thanks giving will range from 60 to 70 cents a pound.
 In order that growers may famil- iarize themselves with the latest methods of preparing birds for mar ket, a demonstration will be held at Woodsmere Poultry Farm, West Wilmington on November 12.
