the capital as there are this.season.

Commerce is a widower. The newly appointed Attorney General is a bachelor. The Secretary of Labor is a woman. Mrs. Farley,

master General, makes her home in New York. . That leaves six ‘women fo carry the burden of entertaining for the President’s official family. | Officially, each Cabinet hostess is “at home” two Mrs. Hull Wednesdays each year. At the opening of a new social season in Washington the Cabinet wives meet with Mrs. Roosevelt to discuss how they shall divide these dates. After that it’s up to the individual. | Mrs. Woodring Busiest

Mrs. Harry Woodring is probably the. busiest of the lot. The charming and beautiful wife of the Secretary of War gives a great many private parties. On top of that she spends much of her time with her three very young children. The other children of Cabinet members are in their ’teens or fully grown. Mrs. Cordell Hull, wife of the Secretary of State, gives intimate tea parties in her suite at the Carlton Hotel. At these parties, Mrs. Huli, with diplomatic reserve and characteristic tact, has a heart to heart talk with every wife in the embassy set, sometime during the season. Mrs. Henry ‘Morgenthau, Ww wife of the Secretary of the Treasury, enlivens with her wit and keen in=tellect the small dinners at which she entertains a select group. Closer to Mrs. Roosevelt than any other

lunches at ‘the White House or

side with her. Petite and vivacious Mrs. Claude Swanson’s official “at homes” are famous for their generous buffets and attract huge crowds. The wife of the Secretary of the Navy frequently gives large luncheon parties at a private club. She is the favorite of the “cliff-dwellers” or residential society. Mrs. Wallace Has Knack

The attractive and gracious wife of the Agriculture Secretary entertains with her husband at comfortable homey dinners. Mrs. Henry Wallace has the knack of making her guests feel instantly at ease. Her parties are the sort where.one doesn’t sit up straight on the edge of the chair—ever conscious that one’s host is an important official. Young, red-haired Mrs. Harold Ickes, wife of the Secretary of the Interior, looks like the head of a college sorority house. She has the distinction of being not only the

only cone with whom it is known the President has dined this season as a guest. She held her first official “at home” a few days ago. It is to be noped that the mobs of curious and hungry women who descended on her on that occasion did not discourage the newest cabinet hostess. Mrs. Ickes’ handsome spacious house of Headwater Farm in Maryland is ideally suited to entertain on a large e.

Cites Effect of Wage-Hour Law

Women working in industrial and office divisions of Indiana factories have an advantage over women employed in retail establishments and other businesses because of the Federal Wage-Hour law, Miss Mary Anderson, director of the women’s Bureau of the Department of Labor, said last night. Miss Anderson addressed a meeting of members and guests of the Business and Professional Women’s Club at their club house, 1101 N. Delaware St. “Many women in Indiana have benefiited since the law went into effect,” Miss Anderson stated. “Their wages have been raised and their working hours shortened.” About four million women working in the industries throughout the nation are affected by the law. the speaker estimated. Miss Anderson urged women to help make the Wage-Hour law a success by reporting any violations, “Women's organizations have a real responsibility to women employed in industry or other forms of business, she stated. Miss Anderson stressed that a study of the act and vigilance concerning its application are important for a woman's . organization during this time when the both employers and employees have little understanding of the law’s real significance. About 200 women, including many from other cities in the State, attended the lecture. Guests of honor were presidents of leading women’s organizations in Indianapolis. The Baton Club of Shortridge High School furnished the music. Mrs, Nell Merrick Thomas presided.
