Vv ictory Dineer Ww as Superb, But Fun Mostly Roosevelt's
By FREDERICK C. OTHMAN
United Press Staff Correspondent
WASHINGTON, March 5.—The dinner was superb and the chams- |
pagne sparkled like the eyes of a New Deal stenographer after her first raise, but a lot of Democrats sought the bicarb bottle just the same today to ease the pangs of food which cost 8100 a plate. There were 1300 customers jammed elbow-to-elbow in the Mayflower

President Roosevelt, the guest of honor, Despite the historic speech which he must have been running over ai nd over again in his ming, he relished every bite. Numerows paying guests — who bought their $100 meal on the installment plan-—were on the sharppronged horns of a dilemma. They had to eat every morsel ih a vain attempt to get their money's worth and everv bite they ate, at $8.80 per chew, the worse they felt,
Pompano Like Cotton
Some admitted that the pompano belle meuniere aux amandes, which they still will be buying next October, tasted like cotton in their mouths. Others said that the breast of capon on Smithfield Hawaiian artichoke chatelaine, in which they had only a 25. per cent equity, rasped as it slid down their gullets. The gold-glittering ballroom, where the President sat, was =o crowded that the awed waiters dribbled many a $1.65 drop of dia-mond-back terrain soup au madre on many a hard-boiled shirt The news peas a la menthe were cold by the time thev reached some guests, while the sweet potatoes with oranges triomphe looked a little

For his $100 everybody got one small glass of sherry, one medium glass of Madeira, and two dittos of

much even for the Democrats to figure. Mostly thev drank it down in the gain hope that maybe it would
