the past tread a measure at one of
them. Still Washington Just will dance
on the night of March and If there is
not an official inaugural ball there viii
at least be one very large dancing
event, and that for charity.
The Washington Symphony will come
into its own this week, beginning with
! the second Sunday afternoon concert
of the season today and an unu u-ua!ly
brilliant event will be that of Tuesday
evening at the Dodge Hotel, when Mrs

tra from the National Symphony group.
Really the entire evening Is planned to
bring into greater prominence the
symphony and help Hans Kinder, who
will be guest, to a more hrm founda-
ton for his organization.
Everything in Washington must have
its social angle no matter what are
its other sides, and so there will be
a receiving line with such important
| persons as Mrs. Rockefeller, Mrs. Wal
ter Bruce Howe, Mrs. Lawrence Town

its chief closing feature to a day of

has patronized the ball since coming to
Washington years ago, and heads the
list Of distinguished men and women
who this year will carry it to success
It was for long a habit with the Presi-

BY SALLIE WI. PICKETT.

D1 Sh4AL1E w. IL
The White House will open its doors
10 its rghtful occupants, the President
and Mrs. Hoover, on their return Tues
day evening, and, while of course the
President will find large accumulation
Of of1cial business awaiting him, Mrs
Hoover will simply be swamped. A
Presidents wife is called upon for al
most everything from lending her name
as a patroness or sending out neatly
engraved end autographed picture Of
the White House to be scld at a church
fair and her presence at various places
where her moral support is needed to
holding formal reception to a mighty
potentate.
With the official program all neatly
laid out, it only remains for her to
answer the thousand and one other calls
made upon her time. With Mrs. Hoo
ver's calm, unruff1ed temperament, it
seems but little trouble for her to do
the many things, while, reading Of the
Rooseveltian temperament of the new
lady of the White House, one wonders
how on earth she will ever get by with
things. There is a general idea con-
stantly expressed that she will do or
will not do as much Of the routine Of
White House obligation as she likes, but.
like her uncle and aunt, who broke the
trail for her in q. past administration,
she is pretty likely to phIosophically
accept the situation and realize, as she
always has done, that there Is time
saving in routine.
On the other hand, there will be some
trying times in store for the outgoing
administration, which cannot humanity
have much interest in the social side of
things For instance, if the President
and Mrs. Hoover accept the invitation
of the Congressional Club, which always
suffers outrag 3ously with the change CT
each administration, there will be the
unique situation of a lame duck recep-
tion line, beginning with the charming
president Of the club, Mrs. Leonidas
Dyer, and extending clear down the line
of officers, with perhaps one exception.
OF course, the President is in the po-
sition of lame duck, too.
Looking backward, one can predict a
rather staid and solemn Winter season
in Washingtcn-thati is, if the history Of
most admin straticns is carried cut.
Every off cal social obligation viii te
fulfilled, and there will be s-me lively
stirring about in the diplomatic corps
caused by the arrival Of new Ambassa-
dors or Ministers to fill old places, and
each envoy bringing with him new
members for his staff. But the only
real lively talk that one hears Is about
the new incoming administration and a
cabinet for the new President. Just
now one learns that the latter topic
peeves Gov. Roosevelt, but then every
Prestdent-elect must stand that. 1t Is
fun alike for beth parties to make sug-
gestions.
To dance the Inauguration day to a
close or not 10 dance is the question
troubling the minds of Washington folk
VIII there be an inaugural ball? The
verdict of several Presidents in the
past was that it was too much TO ask
of one after so strenuous day as the
inaugural ceremonies demand. These
balls are even in mildest form affairs
flled with high color and startling ef-
3scts, seldom or never stately. and II

SOMEBODY HAD TO BUY THE WHEAT

Continuing its fight on federal farm legislation, and on the Farm
Marketing Act in particular, the Chicago Tribune in a recent editorial
says in part:
THE Farm Board, by boarding grain and cotton, has kept a sup
ply hanging over the market which is effectively preventing a rise
in prices. If it were not for the boards accumulation, wheat today,
in the opinion of market experts, would be considerably higher as a
ever the farmers may have gained as a result of the boards buying
they have now lost, and they will continue to pay for the boards spec
uahons until the boards holdings have been lquidated"
If" says the Chicago Tribune, sit were not for the boards &C.
cumulatons, wheat today, in the opinion of market experts, would be
considerably higher a a consequence of unfavorable weather in the
winter wheat belt"
1t so happens that the reverse of what the Tribune says is the
correct situation today. If the Farm Board were not holding this wheat
it would either be jammed in the elevators of the private grain in
terests and carried in the visible supply " it would be in the granar
les of the farmers and the farmers would be carrying the loss.
1t is well known that the Farm Board opposed the policy of price
sterilization. However, a little over a year ago, following the world
debacle, the price of all grains, and especially wheat, tumbled to
the lowest levels of record. Wheat in Liverpool sold at the lowest
price in four hundred years. Our prices reacted to the weakness of
foreign markets and the bottom fell out of our markets. Banks
throughout the winter wheat belt that had made wheat loans began
to close their doors-sixtytwo failed in one state in a single day
sure was brought on the Farm Board to buy wheat and maintain a
level sufficiently high to protect wheat loans and domestic prices,
and although it was contrary to the policy of the board the pressure
was sufficiently strong to force them into the market. The Farm
Board bought wheat and unquestionably saved a major financial col
lapse and gave this country time to reorganize its finances at that crit
ical time. Every farmer who cared to sell his wheat during the sta
biization period, which ended in June 1881, could have sold at 25c
a bushel higher than the world price-Exchange.

the budget
The conservative factions of both

that will have a wholesome effect
on them and revive the spirits of
the Independents. The record of
how the congressman voted would
be highly interesting.
The last time a similar test of
opposed strength was made was
when the Hawley-Smoot tariff bill
came up for final passage, after
IS months of battling. The farm
bloc had forced some concessions
in the agricultural schedule but
the eastern manufacturers had
built their walls higher than ever
and in some way managed to push
the bill through by a narrow mar
gain. Both parties were to blame.
