seaside resort getting rested before
they sail. probably the middle of
August.
Croweu Back with Flying Data.
Another recently returned official
traveller Is Benedict Croweli, Assist
ant Secretary Of War, who has been
In France and England for the last
two or three months with a commits
sion that was holding conferences
with similar commissions in Paris and
London as to the whole future of
aeronautics, not only in war but in
commerce.
MIR. Crowell has come back even
more enthusiastic than he went away
as to the possibilities and the abso-
lutte necessity Of developing airplanes
to the utmost.
Mrs. Crowell, who slipped away
from Washington with the children
soon after her husbands departure,
came back for few days to meet and
welcome him. They are up at Little
Bears Head for the summer, and as
she had left the two youngsters there
she did not feel that she could stay
away long. So she started back on
Thursday. taking Mr.. Crowel with
her for the week end.
Mrs. Baker and her children win 60
on Thursday to Lake Chautau lua,
where they will visit Miss Hannah
James Patterson of the Woman's Com
mittee of National Defence, who was
recently the Bakers house guest here.
Secretary Baker will probably manage
to go along for the week end, though
he doesn't seem to think he can stay.
Mrs. Baker expects to stay there with
the children through August. and she
is hoping that Mr.. Baker will be able
to Join them for part of the time.
His not having time" she says
with conviction. "is purely psycholo-
gical. He thinks he can't get away,
and so-he can't get away. that's ALL"
And she accepts the situation with
wifely philosophy. perhaps realizing
that when he has been alone for a
week or two he will find he has more
time than he thought he had.
During the last week Washington
has had its first glimpse In ever 80
long of "the other Mrs. Baker," Mrs.
Raymond Baker, formerly Mrs. Alfred
Gwynne Vanderbilt, who married the
Director Of the Mint about year ago.
Raymond Baker got back Monday
from a rather long drawn out official
trip, which took him out to the asst
He first went to Lenox. passing the
week end with his wife and her twu
boys at HOLLYWOOD, as she calls her
farm there. In the middle of the week
she came down to Washington and
stayed for a few days at a local hotel
with Mr.. Baker. Mrs. Baker is looking
well. She was quite Ill in the spring
and went to HOLLYWOOD direct from q
New York hospital.
The Burwen Cutters have eliminated
themselves temporarily. Mr.. Cutler
motored up to Philadelphia about a
week ago and sailed for Europe last
Tuesday as a special representative of
the Secretary of Commerce. He
passed the intervening week end with
Mrs. Cutler and the Morgan Listers
at Spring Lake. Mrs. Cutler expects
to remain there until her husband re-
turns. probably in a couple OF months
when they will return to their apart
ment at Wardman Park Inn.
AS for the diplomatic set, II really
seems to be playing a sort of Marching
to Jerusalem game, or something o
the sort where every one gets up an(
changes places. The Jusserands arr

stay right there long enough to gel
their breath. But the italian Ambas

came a week later are already of.

Peru's Representative Leaves.
One of the queerest situations tina

Ambassador. DR.. Tudela. Three or fou
years ago Peru first reduced her lega

ganization. and then withdrew It alto
gether. saying that she was dea
broke, or whatever is the diplomat
equivalent, and could not afford diplo
matte representation here. The Min
