Virginian Now Envoy
To Paris Finds Task
Tough and Confining
Ru the Assncioied Press

PARIS, July 23-It takes more
than striped pants and gift for
F-cnch small talk to make an
AMBASSADOR to Paris. but one Viz
gnia gentleman farmer has found
that they help.
David Kirkpatrick Este Bruce.
one-time member of the Virginia
Legislature, is evidence that its
no job for a cookie-pusher. either.
He wears the striped pants only
when he has to, and that is only
for a small part of his seven-day
week. He has to do lot of fast
talking in both French and Eng
lish, and some of it is pretty big
talk. at that.
Il don't want to make it seem
like the toughest Job in the
world" the new ambassador con-
f1des. But it doesn't leave much
time for hunting, fishing, the fam
lily or serious music
Loves to Hunt, Fish.
Tall. slim and nearly white
haired at 81. Bruce confesses to
passion for hunting and fishing,
with small hope of satisfying it..
An ambassador to key coun,
try like France is expected to
flood official channels with de-
tailed reports on the economic and
political situation in his bailiwick.
He must take up all kinds of
questions pending between the
two governments, and argue them
to the conclusion desired by
Washington. And he has a big
share in any international goings-
on in the country where he is
assigned.
When the Secretary of the
Treasury was here" Mr.. Bruce
explains, Il had to sit in on most
of his conferences with French
officials. And I wasn't in this job
more than a few weeks when we
had Secretary Acheson here for
the Big Four Foreign Ministers
conference"
Some of the tension is gone,
now that these two crises are
past. but Mr.. Bruce's Gays are
still full. Mr.. Bruce sees visit
ors informally in his big paneled
Office and tries-unsuccessfu
to limit them to 20 minutes.
He leaves his coat draped over
q chair. as a concession to the
heat. But his carefully knotted
tie and neat collar are as tight
as they would be in January.
Two Receptions a Week.
Twice week he gives a re-
ception for 300 to 400 guests at
the Embassy residence, and on
most evenings there are smaller
cocktail parties.
There is no day off Sundays.
Mr.. Bruce usually has a corner
stone to lay or a monument to
dedicate. and most often has to
travel some distance from Paris
for the occasion.

In the past 10 years he has seen
