Copitel Capers ~~ Mayflower Hotel | Official Rendezvous Of ‘Fast Buck™ Set

Luncheon at This Establishment Costs Enough to Warrant Big Expense Account By ELISE MORROW WASHINGTON, Sept. 10—It is hard to escape the feeling that this is just about the best time in the history of American civilization to study the record of the county courthouse politician. This record, as a matter of fact, is neither important nor |

worthy of condemnation or praise when it is confined to the county courthouse. However, it has become a national issue, Lawrence Wood Robert Jr., a wealthy contractor who once was secretary of the Democratic National Committee (1936-1040), | * summed up the situation this week | with devastating, if unconscious, ac- |

| curacy. As he walked along the corridor | which separates the Mayflower |

Lounge, rendezvous of the feather. | hatted and feather-headed set, from the Mayflower's Presidential dining | room, rendezvous among others, of | the Washington fast-buck set, Mr, || Robert said: “Shall we eat with the. five percenters in the main dining room, or the Chanel Number Fivers in the Lounge?” It is not the fault of the Mayflower Hotel that it happens to be the most fashionable hostelry in Washington. | It is true, however, that a luncheon at this establishment, or a dinner, Will certainly cost enough 16- warrant the most preposterous expense account; particularly if it is tied up with sufficiently important people. Buch romancings could become matters of senatorial interest.

Not sc long ago, an elegant, over-wealthy, overly-snohbish family invited friends to a party. There was, because of recent events, much discussion of the social future which this woman might accomplish. She was more than equal to the problem, “I will take care of that” ~— : she said. “I will issue invita. tions which will Tover the whole situation. They will say, ‘Mr. and Mrs. S8o-and-8o are invited . + «» for the usual reasons . . .' and they will be certain to be all dressed up and on time for the Life photographers.”

Ideal Qualifications

To quote a recent Washing- * ton column, here are the ideal qualifigations for a young Royalist: “She speaks several ) , including English, of course, and she speaks that flawlessly. She learned English diction when a young girl from the same English teacher Princess Elizabeth and Princess Margaret Rose had. Always studying something new, she has even gone in for flying lessons. On top of all that, the _- polished Teresa has worked "every other day in a New York hospital doing the unpleasant and thankless tasks that fall to the lot of a nurse's ald.” Betsy Goodloe Porter, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Paul A. Porter (he was formerly head of OPA) is on the verge of coming out, and the official event ' will occur on Dec. 26, at the Suigrave Club. On the same Mrs, Tom Connally, wife of the ..dats, Miss Judith Waldrop, Senator from Texas, in a quandaughter of Mr, “and "MrE "gary. Bhe is not sure whethér Frank 'C. Waldrop, will join she should now release for pub-

“The trouble. with Daddy on Sunday,” she sald, “is that that's his Martini-drinking day.” Senator's Wives Cheerful Unable to reform the Senate of the United States, which seems determined to meet indefinitely, Senators’ wives have adopted a policy of cheerful inevitability. Mrs. Guy M. Gillette, wife of the Senator from lowa, has devoted two days each week to assisting the Red Cross with its blood bank. In her spare time; .she has crocheted afghans and, as a matter fact, has completed three of them this summer. Mrs. James P. Kem, wife of the Senator from Missouri, has decided for some odd reason to steer her daughter Evelyn, better known as “Kiki” into a journalistic career. Miss Gene Douglas, daughter of Senator and Mrs. Paul 8. Douglas of Illinois begins a new school term in Washington, as does Miss Partricia Capehart, daughter of Senator and Mrs. Homer Capehart of Indiana, | who bas just toured New York state and Canada.
