ton. Before taking the highest Office
in his country's government M. Les
cot was Minister to the United States.
At yesterdays event both the sUn
and Nine. Chauvet were renewing
acquaintances made when their
father was envoy here.
Invitations for the fete for Gen.
Eisenhower were issued in the name
of the Haitian Ambassador and
Nine. Liautaud and they stood with
the honor guest. Nine. Lautand
chose for the occasion a becoming
street-length gown of white crepe.
Nine. Chauvet and her sister in
law, Nine. Lescot, both had on black
sheer costumes.
The Haitians love for red was evil
denced in the clusters of flame
color gladioluses used about the
Embassy. On the long table in
the dining room the piece de re-
sistance was very decorative plat
ter of sturgeon. Lobster and vege-
table salads also were served along
with tea, sandwiches and layer cake
On the wide porch adjacent to the
dining room Gen. Eisenhower's
health was drunk in sparkling cham
pagne
Gen. Eisenhower found many
close friends at the function, for
in addition to the Latin Amer
ican diplomats and State Depart
ment officials and their wives pres
ent, there was a large contingent
of Army and Navy officers and
their ladies in the gathering. In
formality prevailed as the guests
were greeted, with Gen. Eisenhower
calling many of those present by
their first names.
His Britannia Majesty's Ambas-
sador and the Countess of Halifax
arrived in time to witness the pres
entation and remained for some
time after Gen. Eisenhower left to
join Mrs. Eisenhower at their apart
ment at Wardman Park. Later
Gen. and Mrs. Eisenhower went to
Leesburg for few days stay. The
Director General of the Pan Amer
ican Union, DR.. Leo S. Rowe, was
among the first to greet the General
of the Army and attending their
first party since their return from
the San Francisco Conference were
Representative Sol Bloom and Miss
Vera Bloom.
From the Embassy, located at SOFT
Sixteenth street, many of the guests
went on to Woodend, the lovely
estate in Chevy Chase of Capt. and
Mrs. Chester Wells now leased to
Gen. Shang Chen, head of the Chi
nese Military Mission in the United
States. 1t was here that Gen.
Shang was entertaining at a recep-
ton in honor of 1t. Gen. Sun Le-
Jen, commander of the Chinese new
1st Army in the Burma-India the
ater of war.
One thousand invitations were is
sued for this brilliant function COM
plimenting the distinguished Chi
nese officer, and during the hours of
6 to 8 O'Clock hundreds of War and
Navy Department officials, and high
ranking officers of the services ar
rived to pay their respects to the
visitor from the Orient.
Woodend is an ideal place for
al fresco entertaining with the
beautiful grounds surrounding the
attractive house, and Gen. Shang
took advantage of this yesterday.

An embarrassment of riches"
appeared on Washingtons social
calendar yesterday. Topped with
reception at the Haitian Embassy
honoring Gen. Dwight D. Eisen-
hover, Allied supreme commander
in Europe, the day boasted four
other sizable parties. With the set
tings of the events so generally
scattered guests really had to hurry
in order to make the rounds, Old
timers in the social setup will say
five entertainments in one after
noon was nothing at all during
peacetime. They will reminiSce on
the times when all the cabinet
hoSteSSeS held receptions on the same
afternoon and how they attended
every one. Then they will recall
that perhaps later the same day
a dinner party and one of the
fashionable charity balls often was
included on their program. But
transportation then was easy. Lit
tie thought had to be given as to
how to get from one place to the
other. If you did not use your
own car you could always phone
for a taxi-and get one. Gasoline
and tires were things you never
dreamed would be rationed. I re-
member we'll the limousine assigned
70 this department for the cover
ing of the social whirl. Yesterday
friends pooled their cars, many went
to their destination by pickup cabs
or by bus and there we're not few
who went afoot.
The party yesterday for the Ma
tion's hero began at O'Clock, and
fortunately the other festivities
were scheduled for a bit later in
the afternoon. But it wouldn't have
made any difference anyway about
the hour of the function for pop
ular ike" Not any one would pass
up an opportunity to be with him.
So the $50 guests invited to the
affair at the Haitian Embassy in his
honor nearly all were there.
The Haitian government has added
another medal to Gen. Eisenhower's
growing collection of the highest
awards of foreign countries. At the
party the Great Cross of the Haitian
National Order was conferred upon
him. 1t was given to him in ap-
probation of his part in planning
the defense of the coast of Haiti
against German submarines, and
also because of the sincere admira-
ton the Haitians have for a great
man. The President of Haiti, M
Ellie Lescot, sent the decoration to
this country by his son, M. Gerard
Lescot, who made the presentation
to the General of the Army. The
Chief Executives son is Secretary
of Foreign Affairs of his country
and headed the Haitian delegation
at the San Francisco conference.
Mr.. Lescot's brief greetings from
his father to the general were given
in French with Gen. Eisenhower
accepting the citation in English
in the name of the Allied Forces,
including Haiti.
He was accompanied to Washington
by other members of his delegation
and they witnessed the impressive
ceremony at which the high honor
of their republic was bestowed upon
Gen. Eisenhower. In this group were
Undersecretary for Finance M.
Pierre Chauvet, son-in-law of Presi-
dent Lescot, and Minister for Ma
tional Defense M Vely Thebaud.

Water-Bath Canning Outfit
Is Easily Made at Home

To help homemakers can fruits
and tomatoes - the acid foods that
require no steam pressure Gamer
half a million new enameled water
bath Gamers are being manufac-
tured this year. In addition, un-
counted water-bath Gamers will be
home made. These will be lard cans,
metal pals, kettles, wash boilers,
ham boilers; in fact, any kind of
big, clean and deep" vessel that
can be fitted with rack and lid will
do a good canning job.
When buying or assembling a
water-bath Gamer, check "strate-
gic" points. Whether ready-made or
homemade, a water-bath Gamer
should be deep enough for the jars
used. Most quart canning jars are
8 inches tall and pints inches. A
vessel must be at least or 4 inches
taller than the jars to allow for jar
height, plus rack, plus water to
cover jars an inch or two and bubble
up briskly over the jar tops to
sterilize food throughout each jar.
Take note that a water-bath can
ner needs good lid but not tight
lid. The lids job is to hold in some
steam to help heat the jars of food.

'Teeter-Totter' REEVES
Victims of Water Mishaps

With summer here again, the sea-
Sonal increase in drownings is a
certainty. Many of these victims
might be saved if some artificial
respiration method were applied
promptly. The widely known Schae-
fer, or prone pressure, method is ex-
cellent, but has some disadvantages.
Where possible, the "EVE" or tee
ter-totter method gives better re-
suits, according to the coast guard
medical division.
The advantage of the EVE over
the Schaefer and other methods of
resuscitation is that it is especially
suited to cases where artificial res
piration must be maintained for
some time. 1t is also easier on the
victim, less firing to the operator
and requires less skill.
The EVE method makes use of
the weight of the abdominal organs.
1t alternately pushes and pulls the
diaphragm up and down in the man.
ner of piston. The victim is lashed
securely to a stretcher or board and
is rocked over a fulcrum in teeter-
totter fashion.
Artificial respiration has been
made the subject of a special prof.
ect of the coast guard medical divi-
sion. On the basis of these studies,
the EVE method, developed by DR..
F. c. Eve of Hull, England, has
been approved by the U. S. coast
guard, for use in addition to the
Schaefer method.
The Schaefer method of resusci-
tation for obvious reasons remains
the technique of choice under ordi-
nary circumstances. Anyone who
has had first aid instruction knows
how to apply it. 1t requires no ap-
paratus and can be put into opera
ton Immediately. DR.. Grier points
out the EVE method has been tried
informally at coast guard air sta
tons and has been found particular
ly adaptable for use on aircraft
and aviation rescue boats, because
of the movement of the ship or plane

Veterans in College
Earn AboUe Average
Grades, Deans Say

Returned eel" college students
are maintaining scholastic grades
that are as good as or better than
the averages of civilian students, &C
cording to survey of ia universe
ties and colleges by Northwestern
National Life Insurance Co.
"These men are more serious as a
group than are the civilian Students"
is typical of comments received
from deans and other placement Of
ficials covered in the survey.
Veteran full-time students in U. S.
colleges and universities totalled A.
1925 for the spring term (O.W.I. fig
ures), an increase of 40 per cent
over the winter term total veteran
registrations, the survey states.
Columbia university reports SIT
student veterans on its campus for
the spring term; Universities Of
Pennsylvania, Minnesota and Michi-
gan each report approximately 400
former servicemen enrolled as full
time students for the spring quar-
ter, the survey finds. Other univer-
stiles and colleges reporting large
current enrollments of former G.I.s
are: University of Illinois, with 1856
veterans; University of Ohio and
Texas u, with $50 each; College Of
the City of New York and Michigan
States, 300 each; Temple university,
275; Purdue, 261; University Of
Washington, 260; Boston u, 257;
Cornell, Missouri and Utah, approx
mately 200 each; Stanford with ITS;
Marquette, ITS; Alabama, 40; Lou
isiana State with 1875; Bradley Poly
technic, 1875; Kentucky with lis;
Yale, liz; Notre Dame, Tennessee,
Georgia, Oklahoma A. and M. with
approximately 100 veteran students
each.
Some 20 per cent of student-veter-
ans are either already married or
soon expect to be; the problems OF
housing these married students in
small college towns are likely to be
acute, observes the report from Col
gate university.
Principal exceptions to the gener-
ally favorable grade reports were
those veterans without adequate
preservice college preparation, and a
certain proportion of those with long
combat experience. Veterans were
reported as having more difficulty in
engineering and other chronological
courses than in academic and bust
ness subjects. Many have heavy 60
ing for the first term or so, but
bring their averages up after getting
back into the habit of study, the
survey finds.
So far, there has been little call
for refresher courses for returned
alumni veterans. Most of these have
gone to work Immediately in war
industries, the survey finds On the
basis of returns from questionnaires
sent by various universities to alum
nj in service, however, heavy calls
for refresher courses are expected
as more alumni veterans return
and employment demand from war
industries slackens.

and the limited space.
Additional advantage of the EVE
over other methods, DR.. Grier ex-
planned are that any unframed man
can assist after watching only a few
moments. All water in the lungs is
allowed to run out. Wet clothes can
be cut off and warm blankets used
without disturbing the artificial res
piration. The victim is not harmed
by bruising in the application of
pressure. The EVE method is easier
to work long time if needed. Vic
Tins with fractures do not have to
be disturbed. A greater amount of
ventilation reaches the lungs
around 100 &C. more than in other
methods.
Its only disadvantage is that it re-
quires some apparatus, namely
stretcher, or board and fulcrun,
but this disadvantage is more ap-
parent than real. For while this
apparatus is being set up, the
Schaefer method can be applied
temporarily.

The legal profession Is about to
meet the greatest challenge it has
ever faced.
The Moscow declaration, pub
Ished November l, 1913, and signed
by President Roosevelt, Prime Min
lister Churchill and Premier Stain,
declares that chose German officers
and men and members of the Nazi
party" who are responsible for or
who have taken consenting part in
atrocities, evidence of which has
been received from authoritative
quarters in many countries" will be
"tried, judged and punished" accord
ing to the laws of those countries.
This same declaration also de-
clares in its final paragraph that
"major criminals whose offenses
have no particular geographical 10
calization" will be tried and dealt
with by Joint decision of the Gov
ernments of the Allies"
That is where the United States
and the challenge of its legal profess
sion comes in.
The body which will try these "big
shots" is an international military
tribunal, to be designated by an Of
fetal title, probably by the time
these lines are printed, and it is be-
fore this court that member of the
Supreme court of the United States,
Associate Justice Robert H. Jack
son, chosen as American chief of
counsel, will appear as prosecutor.
He will act jointly, it is presumed,
with the counsels of the United King
