BREAKFASTS STILL HELD BY COOLIDGE Wallles and Sansages Are Served by Execative Wflshmzton eFb, 17 (UP)—Pres- fdent Coolldge today .continued his famous waffles-and-sausage break- fasta for congressmen, which have been an almost daily feature for weeks, More than 100 members of con- gress now have been guests at such affairs and the rest will attend in turn, While a slight social importance is attached to them, the breakfasts' chief function is to furnish the pres- fdent with first-hand information on national political and legislative de- velopments. Occasionally the guest list is con- fined to & limited group interested in one particular issue, such as the recent “flood control” breakfast. The guests rather than the presi- dent are relied on to supply the con- versational motif, with promptings now and then from Mr. Coolidge. No Politics Political leanings have no part in these executive breakfasts. The guests aer chosen almost indiscrim- inately, sometimes all present being elphabetical neighbors in the con- gressional directory, ‘The guests average about 13, and there never are more than 15, the table accommodations in the private dining room being limited. The menu generally consists of succulent country sausage, waffles with maple syrup, and coffee. Break- fast is served promptly at 8 o'clock, and lasts from 45 minutes to an hour. This permits the president to be at his desk not later than a few minutes after 9 o'clock. Mrs. Coolidge does not attend the breakfasts given for the lawmakers, | even when congresswomen attend, as three did yesterday. Last night the president completed the White House social season single bhanded. Without Mrs. Coolidge at his side he led a procession of army and navy officers down a stairway to the blare of a band, stationed himself in the blue room and shook hands with 2,. 000 guests who filed past in line. Mrs, Coolidge IlL His army and navy reception was the last state function of the winter and the first Mrs. Coolidge has miss- ed since she became “first lady.” Bhe was confined to her upper floor room with the last traces of a cold. Physicians feared the strain of 8o many handshakes would have prov- ed too much for her. To guests who inquired after the| missing hostess' health, Mr. Coolidge replicd with a smile, “She's much better, thank you.” BECOME COMMUNISTS Warsaw, Poland, Feb. 17.—(P— Bchoolboys become communist agi- tators when the government con- ducted an anti-Red raid.
