Cry of "Precedent" Heard When Reception Is
Announced Instead of Annual
Diplomatic Breakfast

the direct representatives of foreign
governments and foreign ministers to
extend the fluctuations to the President,
who will be absent, through his natu-
raj emisssry, the Secretary Of State.
/ Woodley is charming place in which
to entertain, and while it will be neces-
sary to return to the former custom of
curtailing the invitation list to the
members of the diplomatic corps and a
very few others, all of an official ma
ture, the event will only gain in charm
and comfort. The late Philander Knox,
when Secretary Of State, found that
even his handsome house on K street
was not adequate to holding the diplo-
matte breakfast there. removed the
entertainment to the Pan-American
Building and since then, the breakfasts
have been held there instead Of in the
home.
Washington is fast growing Capital
with the list of exes and lame ducks
growing apace. To these men who
have Occupied places Of honor, 1t was
nice to invite them to the diplomatic
breakfast, especially those who had
served in the United States diplomatic
corps and consular service and other
recognized places. But when they grow
in number at the rate of more than
half hundred year one may well see
without criticism that there is 70 place
large enough, not even the White House,
for the number.
On first thought it may seem a little
unkind to curtail these events, but since
the hospitality of the city is unbounded
one will find constant occasion for
the members OF society to meet. The
former Ambassador Houghton is build
ing to Washington one Of its most de-
