social scheme of things here, these
changes in government across the sea
bring new people into our social
ranks.

diplomatic corps was Alfred SEE, min
lister from China who has been in his
own country for some time now.

would be made a high official over

is bringing him back, much to the de-
light of us here. He is now enjoying
short vacation with his family at
their home in China and they will all
sail for Washington early next
month.
Political changes in Argentina took
DIR. Tomas LeBreton, ambassador
from Argentine. home to serve in the
cabinet. He and his wife were so or
namental as we'll as liieable. we hated
to part with them. Now it's said that
Argentina is going to send an am
