Inspection
Plan Hit by
federation

The District Federation Of
Women'S Clubs yesterday op-
posed transfer of the Health
Departments bureau of public
health engineering and bureau Of
food inspection to a new Licenses
and Inspection Department as
proposed in the District govern
ment reorganization plan.
The action was taken through
a resolution adopted at the
groups annual meeting at Ward
man Park Hotel.
The federation urged that this
important health service be re-
tanned under jurisdiction of the
Department Of Health. where it
belongs" In addition, the women
called on the Commissioners to
seek additional power and ap-
preparations to further protect
the health of the community
whenever it is possible to do So
The resolution was introduced
by Mrs. Ernest w. Howard,
member of the health division
Of the federation's Public vel.
fare Department.
Mrs. Howard pointed out that
the federated clubwomen have
worked for years in the inter-
est Of an adequate Health De.
partment for the District.
In another resolution, the Dis
trict group opposed any move
ment to have the celebration of
Friendship Day" take place dur.
ing the period in February desig-
mated as Brotherhood Week by
the National Conference of
Christians and Jews.
Friendship Day" now OBJ
served on March 7, originated in
Texas as a celebration of the
birthday Of M. Eleanor Bracken-
ridge, Texas educator and phil
lanthropist.
Mrs. Erich w. Schwartze, pres
ident of the District Federation,
was close friend of Miss
Breckenridge and has done much
to promote the observance
through organization of M.
Eleanor Breckenridge Friend-
ship Clubs.
Mrs. Howard reported yester-
day that proposal for merger
Of the celebration with National
Brotherhood Week is being con-
sidered for presentation before
the General Federation at its
convention here next week.
In opposing the change, she
moved that clubwomen continue
to make the celebration a tribute
to Miss Breckenridge whose life
exemplif1ed her Christian ideals
to the extent that the Governor
Of Texas proclaimed her birthday
as Friendship Day"

King George vi was trying on

he walked up and down, the

there was much discussion.

be followed by her great-great-

mention. and perhaps did not
know, that her parliament dress
was an almost exact replica of a
costume worn at that time by
Mrs. West, a well-known actress
who was appearing in Sheridan'S
''Elvira," and had evidently
chosen a peeress's crimson gown
with full ermine as costume de-
noting rank and befltting her
dramatic role.

The Queen will drive to her
Coronation in the crimson vel
vet robes Of a Peeress of Parlia-
ment. She will receive the crown
on her head, dressed in gleam-
ing cloth of gold emblazoned
with heraldic designs, and re-
turn to her palace in royal pur-
pie velvet gorgeous with gold
embroidery and ermine, wearing
a magnificent gown, her crown
and jewels. These three changes
of dress are immemorial usage
for Sovereigns of England at
their coronationS. One King
alone appears to have broken
tradition - Inflated Charles I,
who appeared in white with
black, instead of purple. and left
no record for the reason.
