STAR, WASHINGTON, D. 9 C., APRIL 10, 1921—PART Congress Will Bring Many 'INew Faces Here Tomorrow Mrs. Harding to Meet Newcomers Over a Cup of Tea in the East Room at the White House. Not in several generations will so many new faces be seen in the legis- halls as the convening of Con- brings tomorrow. They are not as numerous in the Senate—eleven in total—und of these, Scnators Me- Kinley of Illinois, Weller of Mary- 1and, Cameron of Arizona, Caraway of Arkansas and aWtson of Georgia have served in Congress before. But the House offers a complex problem, and Mrs. Harding is evidently making her plans early to become acquainted with the scores of women who have come to Washington for the first time and must be appalled by the magni- tude of the task before them. All| | during this month and next, until weather is mild enough for al sco fetes, a small company, select- ed from cards left, will be invited waekly to have a cup of tea and a short chat with the first lady, in the cheerful. homelike red roon Unlike many other mistresses of the White House. Mrs. Harding is not wasting an ounce of energy on in- ]mrmr decorations or changes, but is accepting the mansion just as it is| and bending her efforts toward knowing the women with whom she must come into such intimate rela- tions for the next four years. She has already added perceptibly to the large circle she knew when her hus- band was in the Senate, and in one short month. has received at least 2 fourth part of officialdom, a task hitherto spread over an_entire se: son.
