Mrs. 'Veep7 Finds Life In Capital Tougher Than That Of Secretary Washington, Jan. 23 (U.R) Mrs. Allen W. Barklcy is finding life as 'Mrs. Veep'' far more strenuous than the 8 to 5 work day as a St. Louis secretary. The friendly, vivacious bride of the vice-president has no de sire to become the capital's No. 1 hostess, but she's captured the title of No. 1 guest. Everyone who is "official" and many who aren't wants to meet and fete the newlyweds. as a result, the Barkleys are dated up until the end oi February. Ltni Awaited Mrs. Barklcy has had time for only one trip to Capital hill on the opening day of con gress. She has confided to friends that, much as she enjoys Washington's gay social life, she is looking forward to Lent and an end to the formal social sea son. Then she can spend more days watching her husband pre side over the senate, learn the workings of the legislative sys tem and occasionally lunch with her husband at the capitol. Meantime. Mrs. "Veep has adopted her husband's philoso phy that the American public has a right to Know its govern ment officials. But she refuses to believe that people have a personal Interest in her. She is determined to fade into the background. Grants No Interviews With the vice-president's ap proval, she grants no interviews even though besieged with re quests by practically every re porter on the east coast. Gossip-loving Washington al ready has rumored a "coolness" by Mrs. Truman toward Mrs. Barklcy. Some say Mrs. Truman disapproved of the vice-president's remarriage. Most old hands around the capitol write off the reported "feud'' as idle talk. At any rate, President and Mrs. Truman were among the first to entertain the newlyweds. One Informal dinner for closest friends of the Barkleys was held at the president's Blair house last Luncheon Announced For Mistletoe Club Members of the Mistletoe club.

Another is scheduled for early next month. Houia Hunting The "veep" is house-hunting in fashionable Georgetown, but for the present the Barkley's are comfortably settled in the roomy apartment overlooking Connecticut avenue, where Bark ley has lived for eight years. Mrs. Barkley's daughter, 15-year-old Janie Hadley, has made as easy a transition as her moth er from the St. Louis public schools to a private girls' school on the edge of the city. She rides back and forth with Mimi Clark, daughter of Supreme Court Justice and Mr. Tom C. Clark, who live in the same building. The other daughter, Ann, 17, is in school In New Or leans and will spend vacations with the Barkleys. Mrs. Barkley hopes before too long that she can give some time to charity work or community organizations. She is her own so cial secretary and personally an swered all the hundreds of let ters that came from well-wishers at the time of the wedding. Now, she does let a girl from the vice president's office help out with answers to people she does not personally know. SEA IStAND. Go Reporter, William H.

The first thing you need to do is take an Inventory of your wardrobe to see what you have, then carefully plan what you need. A budget is needed. This will help to pass up that cute little dress" you don't really need. A good wardrobe is built around a single color. This goes for you, your husband and your children. Home sewing takes time and patience, and the decision as to whether or not clothes will be made at home should be in fluenced by the value on time. There can be merit and econ omy in home sewing when it is done on the basis of fitting the garment to be made into the wardrobe. The most important phase in actually doing the home sewing is altering your pattern to fit you as an individual, then learn ing as many processes as pos sible to keep your sewing at home looking "handmade" not "homemade." Satisfactory garments made at home are garments that fit you well and have a place in the wardrobe and in the family clothing budget. D.
