his new duties at the foreigO
office there.
Also sailing on Saturday, but
OIL the Paris, is the second secre-
tary of the French Embassy, M.
Armand Berard. M. Berard is
also bound for Rome and there
he will take over the position of
second secretary of his coun'
try's embassy.

tary of the French Embassy and
Nine. Lucet entertained at a
gala but informal buffet supper
in honor of these two depart
