Sonora de Baraibar reached Wash
tngton only day or two ago from
Spain and found the party all ar
ranged for her by Senor Baraibar
who issued invitations 10 days ago.
The party in the Aztec garden
was delightfully."- informal for so
large a company. The guests num-
bered nearly a thousand including
leading officials of the several
branches of the Federal Govern
ment and heads of diplomatic mis-
sions. Those attending the lunch
con had witnessed the laying Of the
corner stone at which the Director
General gave the welcoming address
and other speakers were the Bra
lillian Ambassador, Senior Mauricio
Nabuco, and the United States Am
bassador to the Council of the OAS,
Mr.. Paul c. Daniels. The Brazilian
Ambassador followed in the foot
steps of his father. the late Senior
Joaquin Nabuco, who was the first
Ambassador from Brazil to Wash
ington, and was a speaker at the
laying of the corner stone OF the
present Pan American Union Build
ing. The chairman of the Council
of OAS. Senor Juan Bautista de
Lavelle, Peruvian Ambassador to the
Council, offlciated at the laying of
the corner stone. Musician Albert
Schoepper conducted detail of the
United States Marine Band, which
furnished the musical part of the
program.
The Director General and Sonora
de Lleras did not have formal re-
ceiving line but were near the gate
as the guests arrived. Luncheon was
served from a long buffet table on
the esplanade and at each side of
the garden small tables were erected
for bars. Toasts to the organization
and its continued development and
expansion were offered by the guests
as they slipped champagne.
Senor and Sonora de Baraibar
also dispensed with formal receiv-
ing line for their party and the viva
cious hostess wore black costume,
the sunplaited skirt made street
length. The frock is one in her new
wardrobe which she brought from
Spain. She constantly was ques-
toned about her attractive daugh-
ters, the Senoritas Baraibar who
went home with her in the spring.
They are in Madrid visiting their
hrother-in-law and sister, Senor
Manuel Ruiz and Sonora de Ruiz
who spent some time at the embassy
here year or more ago.
The supper was served in the din
ing room and the menu included
whole salmon, baked ham and pip
ing-hot tiny croquettes one of the
specialties of Spain. All were pre-
pared in the embassy kitchen which
is presided over by the Italian cook
who has served the Baraibars for %
years. Senor Baraibar was stationed
at Naples when they were married
and Sonora de Baraibar went there
as bride. There they secured the
culinary artist who has come with
them to the United States.
The several hundred guests were
chosen from official, diplomatic and
resident society of the Capital
