Fletcher-Rayburn measure. He de-
sires, too, passage of reciprocal tariff,
general revenue, municipal bank

deposits measures.
In order that congress may get
through and adjourn by the middle of
May, the President is willing to side
track some of the administration
measures, including the permanent air
mail legislation and the Wagner
bill to eliminate company-dOminated
unions. He was reported also to have
expressed opposition to measures to
create a central monetary authority.
The house, it is said, will be ready
to adjourn by May Is, but there is
doubt whether the senate will get
through it's work before June /.
DREMIER MUSSOLINI of Italy has
his own ideas of the way to restore
prosperity, and they are utterly at
variance with those of President
Roosevelt. By his direction the coun-
Gil of ministers issued a series of de-
cree laws designed to make the cost
of living commensurate with the pur-
chasing power of the Ira.
The Italian Ira now stands at to 1
in purchasing power with reference to
pre-war values, II Duce declared. The
cost of living on the other hand is
to with reference to pre-war prices.
The two will be equalized, Mussolini
and his ministers declared, and here
is what they did:
Siashed the pay of members of the
government 20 per cent. ..,........-...-
Cut the pay of state and public en-
plOyees on a scale ranging from 6 to
u per cent.
Slashed various supplements and
indemnities granted state employees
and others from 10 to so per cent.
Ordered every landlord in Italy to
reduce rents by II per cent in cases
of individuals and societies, and is
per cent in case of businesses and
shops.
Reduced prices in cooperative
stores and military co-operatives by
10 per cent.
President Roosevelt is right, not
Mussolini, said the London Sunday Ex-
press in an editorial. N
"Mussolini cuts all food prices and
rents on all dwellings," the paper
pointed out. "He cuts, too, state sal
aries In excess of f2 (S10) a week.
Roosevelt works the opposite way by
raising wages and prices all around.
Mussolini wants to reduce the cost of
living. Roosevelt seeks to increase
purchasing power"

In White BrOcade
Mrs. Pittman, wife of Senator
Key Pittman, of Nevada, presi-
dent pro TEN, of the Senate and
member of many important COM
mittees, was an outstanding
figure at the White House re-
ception. She was attired in
snowy white brocade cut on bias
lines with graceful train. The
bodice, which was quite low,
had narrow bands of the ma
terial over the shoulders and a
most intriguing little arr
formed of white fox, encircled
her shoulders. A tiara Of dia-
monds and pearls was worn on
her dark hair, which was beau
tifully coiffed and long white
gloves and a lovely little pearl
encrusted evening bag lent just
the right note.
Mrs. Wadsworth, wife Of the
Representative James Wads-
worth, of New York, and daugh-
ter of the late John Hay, one
time Secretary Of State, was
present with her husband at

and her gown was an outstand-
ing one of heavy black satin
with the top of black and gold
striped lame, faced about the
decollete with a touch of Ameri-
can beauty. She wore diamond
ornaments. On leaving the White
House Mrs. Wadsworth donned
a long black velvet evening cape
lined with American beauty
crepe. A buckle of jet and coral
held it at the neck line.

But why" you ask, why
another column"
Well-everybody is doing It,
you know.
Doing what?"
A column, don't be silly. That
is, everybody who isn't read
ing a column is writing one.
You have to be associated with
a column in some way. Ger
tainly you realize that. It is
part of living in washington.
I know I shall enjoy doing
my column, because I like
dashing hither and yon, see
ing people and things and
places and watching them re-
act on each other. Not gos-
Siping, exactly. It's low to
gossip. Observing is better.
It will be a very active job
observing. Things and peo-
pie and places change so fast
in Washington that one has
to be like the Red Queen in
"Alice in Wonderland and run
like mad-not to get anywhere
merely to keep where one
is.
Knowing the Right People
only by name, much less by
"face and figger," is a fear
full undertaking. Something to
chill the stoutest social heart.
Speaking Of hearts reminds me,
When went to school I often
wrote in my copy book, Kind
hearts are more than coronets.
and simple faith than Norman
blood"
Undoubtedly this maxim is
true today-gold being the
vague illusion it is and dia-
mond tiaras being replaced this
winter by costume diadems of
paste, I still hold, however, that
many a kind heart beats be-
meath a coronet-I mean, be-
low a coronet. And simple
faith and Norman blood are
sometimes synonymous.
Therefore, in the best man
ner of a presiding officer at a
banquet, I shall begin today's
observations with a few re-
marks on the British En-
bassy, stronghold of the Right
People, Simple Faith and
Coronets.
Merely to m ention the
British Embassy means the
Ambassador, The Honorable
Sir Ronald Lindsay, P. c.,
G. C. M. G., K. c. B., C. V. O.,
ambassador extraordinary and
plenipotentiary. Sir Ronald is
so magnificently British. Well
over six feet tall, broad and
muscular, with a fine head
and an aristocratic nose, he is
very handsome, and as stall
wart and self-contained as the
Empire of George and Mary.
once I called on Sir Ronald
at the embassy and found
him in his study. I shall al
ways remember the dignity of
the room. 1t made so perfect
a setting for the ambassadors
personality.
Rich in color, it's walls were
done in deep red damask and
its furnishings were mostly old
brown m a hog gany and red
leather. The chairs beside the
fireplace we're so deep and
enveloping that a small per-
son would probably sink from
sight in their soft upholstery.
The British love color, any,
how, and always use bright
tones in their homes. They
need color, poor dears, to pene-
trate their gray London days.
Not only in its study. but
throughout the entire building,
