IN he EREO1OCGN1 AMI M1Ao.
COOLIDGE will be hosts to-
night at the second of the
state receptions at the White House,
the judiciary, headed by the Chief
Justice of the Supreme Court, be-
ing the honor guests.
The arrangements which proved
80 successful at the diplomatic re-
ception will be followed this eve
ming, the special guests being re-
cefved at 9 o'clock and the others
being invited for $50. The Attor-
ney General and Mrs. Stone being
the members of the Cabinet most
closely affiliated with the judiciary,
will receive with the President and
Mrs. Coolidge. They will, of course,
be previously greeted with the other
members of the Cabinet circle in the
private apartments of the. Chief
Executive and his wife, following
them downstairs in the stately little
procession which is additionally a
feature of White House receptions.
1mprOmptu White House
Parties Come As BombsheIl.
Impromptu parties at the White
House, although probably the most
interesting given there, have way
Of bursting like bombshell into
the orderly routine Of society. Take,
for example, the Presidents turkey
dinner" last night, at which the
Lauzanne treaty was discussed with
Richard Washburn Child, sometime
American ambassador to Italy, who
had been watching out for our in
terests at the conference, to give
expression to his views.
An invitation to the White House
being a command, several of the
Senators hidden had to withdraw
from dinner parties; and at least
one dinner party-the one which
Alexander p. Moore, our Ambassador
TO Spain was to have given, was
broken up entirely. He and Mr..
Child were the only non-Senatorial
guests at the dinner.
Senator Claude Swanson, OF Vir-
ginia, was however, given the I'M
usual privilege of pleading
previous engagement" since he
was scheduled to be the bright par
ticular star at the Virginia Society'S
dinner and many prominent Vir-
ginians had come to Washington es-
pecially- to be present.
The invitations, received but a
few days before hand, to Mrs. Cool
idge's very delightful musicale last
Friday, also made necessary a very
general change Of society's plans,
for Friday is the day always sacred
to diplomatic at homes, and the
wives of many foreign ENJOYS had
announced that they would receive
that afternoon. The newspapers
solved that problem, however, for
next day the society columns car
Tied one notice after another to the
effect that days at home had been
cancelled because of Mrs. Coolidge's
party.
Former President of Paraguay
Now His Country's Minister Here
In the imposing group of new
foreign ENJOYS expected at Wash
ington in the next few weeks there
will be no more distinguished per-
sonage than the minister of Para
quay, Doctor Eusebio Ayala, who
has already reached town, accom-
panied by Nine. Ayala and their
small son, Roger.
Since 1920 the legation of Para
quay has been in charge OF the
consul general of Paraguay in
New York, William Wallace White,
but in resuming relations with this
country on a more ambitious basis,
the little South American republic
has selected as its envoy a man
who has but recently retired from
the presidency. Doctor Alaya is,
moreover, diplomat Of experience
and was at one time minister of
foreign affairs of Paraguay. he is
not unknown in Washington, hav-
ing represented his country here
at occasional Latin-American con-
Gerences.
The new envoy is Minister of
Paraguay to Mexico as well as to
the United States, so presumably
his time will be divided between
Washington and Mexico City. He
will, however, leave a hostage for
his swift return to this country, as
he and Nine. Ayala are placing their
son in school in Washington.
Doctor and Nine. Ayala have
taken an apartment at Wardman
Park Hotel. The new ENJOYS wife,
who is of French extraction, speaks
French and Spanish, of course.
with fluency and is learning Eng
lish. Doctor Ayala, however, is
as much at home in English as
in his own tongue and in French.
the language Of diplomacy. He is,
indeed, a remarkable linquist, with
five or six languages at his COM
mand.
William Wallace White, VINO is
Paraguay's consul general in New
York, is an American, a successful
and distinguished lawyer; and he
has been an occas ional visitor in
Washington or business for the
government he represents. Indeed,
he was eventually admitted 20 the
governing board of the Pan.Ameri
can Union as Paraguay's represen-
tative. a special dispensation being
granted in his favor.
