was one of the most refreshing and
charming which possibly could have
marked Mrs Roosevelts return to the
Capital The guests were received
and entertained on the ground floor
of the hotel, where the arrangement
for privacy was perfect. The K street
doors were used and wraps left in one
large room while Mrs. Hull received
Mrs. Roosevelt and other guests in
the next room, and later they passed
through the coffee room and into the
dining room where Southern smilax
trailed over the walls, huge baskets
of chrysanthemums were used about
the room and the luncheon table bore
three bowls Of pink roses, purple iris
and pink snapdragons. Roses were
scattered over the snow-white cloth.
Mrs. Hull wore becoming dress of
heavy but soft material, plainly fash
ioned, the cowl neck gracefully ar
ranged, while three huge ornamental
buttons were down the front. The
belt was ornamental and the small
and becoming hat was in the same
shade as the gown.
There will be an interesting cere-

Right Rev. James E. Freeman, Bishop
Of Washington, who spoke at the
funeral services for Mrs. Horton, the
Rev. Ze Barney Thorne Phillips, the
Rev. G. Freeland Peter, canon and
chancellor of Washington, and the
Rev. Harry Lee Doll, assistant rector
of the Church of the Epiphany, will
assist.
The tribute which the leader of

particular note. The tablet, Of Colo
nial design, is of. Italian marble. with
inverted lettering, standing 5 feet

Horton studied the tablets in the Old
Kings Chapel, Baston, and the ST.
James Chapel in Newport. having
many sketches made until he found
the design for the beautiful Colonial
tablet now being unveiled. The fam
lily coat Of arms surmounts the tablet,

The return of the President and
Mrs. Roosevelt to the White House,
that of the Vice President and Mrs.
Garner to their comfortable suite in
the Hotel Washington, and the ar
rival of many Senators and Repre-
sentatives places Washington almost
in its former normal atmosphere for
the end of the year. Slowly the con-
gressional set has been coming in,
returning to their old quarters or new
members seeking new quarters and an
unusual number occupying hotel
suites. Entertaining In this set is
for the most postponed until after the
new year, but diplomats and others
have been comfortably active.
An entertainment which set wires
buzzing and typewriters clicking all
over the country was the fancy dress
party at the White House with Mrs.
Roosevelt hostess to the 'gridlron
widows" the two newspaper Women's
clubs seemingly coming in that cate
CORY. Probably never before was seen
such an array of beautiful costumes
mingled with others which reached
from the sublime to the ridiculous,
Mrs Roosevelt herself being in one
of the most interesting costumes
seen. One marvels at what height of
grandeur a real costume party would
take on in the White House, were So
called society to be guests, while last
night the element of fun was rampant
as clever stunts were presented re-
curing less pretentiouS dress.
Washington Is glorified with many
phases of life, Uncle Sam tenants from
the White House down through the an
mails of just plain Government housing
being of interest. And what variety
under the bearded gentleman's pro-
tecting wing and what mixture.
For instance, over the Presidents
garage on E street, where are housed
his fleet of some IS automobiles, Is
printing and binding plant for the
manufacture Of Braille books for the
blind. When the National Library
for the Blind was shunted about this
branch found a resting place over the
Presidents handsome cars and there
the workmen hear the machines chug
in and out to take the White House
family and members of the staff to
and from their varied missions.
With the luncheon which Mrs Cor
dell Hull gave last week at the Carl
ton for Mrs. Roosevelt such hospitali-
ties will probably subside until after
the holidays, and at any rate the cab

Four dark horses" have been added
to the complicated fight that impendS
for the speakership in the new House.
A volunteer Committee" has been
formed to boost the candidacy OF Rep
resentative OConnor Of New York.
and friends have put forward the
names of Representatives Lea Of Cali
fornia, Crosser of Ohio and Taylor
of Colorado in the belief that dead
lock might occur between the leading
candidates, Byrns of Tennessee, Ray
burn of Texas and Bankhead Of
Alabama.
In addition advocates of Mead OF
New York, Rankin of Mississippi and
Woodrum of Virginia became more
active. To add to the confusion Rep
resentative Greenwood Of Indiana an
nounced, in letters to colleagues, his
candidacy for the floor leadership.
Mccormack of Massachusetts,, al
though unannounced, is considered a
strong contender for that post.
Kennedy Appeals to South.
Representative Kennedy, Democrat,
of New York, in making known that
q Volunteer Committee" was back
ing O'Connor. said members from
the North and Eastern States feel
that with control of all major COM
mittees and House leadership the
South should be satisfied.
Meanwhile House Republicans rallied
around the leadership of Representa-
tive Smell of New York. whose re-
placement as minority chief was sug-
gested to G. o. P. members-elect by
Kingsland Macy, former Republican
State chairman.
Representative Treadway, Republic
an, of Massachusetts,, declared he
had found mo opposition" to re-elec-
ton of Smell, who Tuesday night at
his home in Potsdam issued an &C
ceptance of Macy's challenge.
Northerners in Majority.
Until recently the speakership race
among the Democrats appeared to
have narrowed down to Byrns floor
leader, and Rayburn, Interstate Com
merce Committee chairman.
Northern members, holding 149
seats, and Westerners, controlling A,
however, are making plans to capture
at least one and if possible both
the speakership and leadership.
Southern and border States have 129
votes.
The movement for O'Connor, Ken
nedy said, might enhance the chances
of Bankhead of Alabama, chairman
Of the Rules Committee.
Taylor, CroSser and Lea are veterans
in the House. Crosser was a candi-
date for Speaker two years ago, but
threw his support to the late Speaker
Rainey. Lea is chairman of the
Democratic caucus and Taylor is a
member of the important Appro-
priations Committee.
