By SUE MeNAMAHA

WASHINGTON. Sept 30.-—(/P»—
Washington is preparing lor th*
; longest and most brilliant social
season in years.
Several even): contribute to tha
unusually early openly, cl the sea
i son and its lengthening into late
April. President Hoover s electing
• to &uy in the capital ail summer
kept many important per- onage
here who ordinarily would have
, gone abroad.
The extra session of congress
brought many congressmen and
i their wives here lar earlier than
usual The visit of It anus y Mac
Donald. prime minister of England,
and his daughter Iahbei, early in I
October will start the social season
off in earnest.
From then on it will be a round
of tanners, teas, receptions and
balls. Easter, the time when so
ciety sheds its bright garb end
goes into eclipse, comes very late—
April 20.
And not since jolly William How
ard Taft was president has a season
of such lavish entertaining at the
White House been anticipated sij
this coming lint winter under tot
Hoover regime
Whd; the champagne punch of
Taft days cannot return. Washing
ton is wondering if the Coolidge
syartan diet of tee water for state
receptions will not be supplanted al
least by fruit punch
The Hoovers have done more en
tertaining in six months say vet
eran social leaders, than the Cool
idge. did in seven years If frost
ed cakes ana fruit punch are not an
accompaniment to high heels and
tail coats this coming winter, ths
wiseacres will miss their guess
The President and Urs. Hoove
have scarcely eaten a luncheon or
dinner without guests since March
4. They have gene in strong for
group entertaining These pan
have ranged from catenet officials
and other high dignitaries to mors*
paper men and officers of the Girl
'Scouts They have taken 'large par
ties with them on their week-end
trips to the president's fishing
camp.
Meanwhile, for tliose no more in
terested in official entertainment
than in capttnl festivities in gen
eral. a vista of spaagted nights
stretches ahead, glamorous with
snarl uniforms, titles and intsrest
ing personalities from over the
globe.
Many of Washington s brilliant
affairs are held at the home of
Prince Albert de Utgne. the 'ambas
sador from Belgium and his wtf».
They are among the roost popular
of the diplomatic families. The.r
daughter. Princess Bimbeth. al
ready has been presented to so
ciety.
Miss Caroline Rcebling is among I
the most prominent debutantes who1
are eagerly preparing for the first
debutante tea October 19
This will be given by Mrs. Helen
Ray Hagner and will be followed by I
a second November 9 given by Mrs. i
Wiliam Laird Dunlop. The tear!
will be at their height * around I
Thanksgiving and debutante balls
will punctuate Christmas weak with i
sparkling variety.
Something unusual, too. this year
for the more mature women is the j
bel Masque, the first big masquer*
ade Hallowe'en party capital eoctety I
has had in years.
An outstanding event of the Rea
son is the annua) midshipmen s and
cadets' ball Christmas night,

Alcohol Success as
Rapid Anaesthetic
HAVANA. Bept 30. —Tha
use of ethyl alcohol as an anaesthe
tic ir. surgical operations, recently
I demonstrated before the Medical
I Society of France, pawed equally,

t here.

' Francisco Ortiz, trie ethyl alcohol
) anaesthesia Is declared to hold ad-1
j vantages over chloroform and ether,

Australia Would Cut
*U. S. Trade Balance
SYDNEY, Sept SO.-/JV- With
IKS figure® showing a trade bal
ance in favor of the United States
of armed fiat,609.600, Australia is
trying to find means for Importing
less from America.
Several weeks before his cabinet
came a political cropper over the
law to repeal federal industrial ar
bitration. Stanley M Bruce, prim*
minister, warned the country that a
flood of cheap articles aright be
expected to result from the manu
facturing acceleration In the Unit
ed State;:
He appealed especially for Austra
lian auto manufacture, saying that
if the heme industrialists would un
dertake to make parts, and gradual
ly work up to the production of
complete cars, the government would
stop the Importation of cars contain
ing parts that could be obtained
here
A goodly portion of Australia s Im
ports consists of American auto
mobiles. Now plans are being made
for home production and one Mel
bourne company has announced the
early appearance of a car cheaper
than, but as good as. any American
car offered In Australia.
