Exclusively Yours,
The Delegates Lounge at Lake Success
Is Foscinotinq Crossroads for World
By Betty Beole-

Neil, Iceland's Minister Thors,
and so forth.
Conspicuous by their absence
from this friendly. central spot
were members of the Soviet and
satellite delegations. AS soon as
O mittee meetings are ad-
journed, pink-faced, white-haired
Vishinsky marches out of the
room. turns left and proceeds
determinedly down the corridor
without a word to anyone and
with his bodyguards in hot pur-
suit. At the end of the corridor
his car is waiting with the motor
already running and he is whisked
off to>New York. The rest of the
Reds hurry to the Glen Cove estate
where they all hover together for
fear of being indoctrinated with
democracy.
While the General Assembly
is in session delegates from the
United States and other big al
lied countries keep up a terrific
pace-worse even than the official
one in Washington. The Amer
leans start the day off at 9 with
an hours meeting at our head
quarters in New York. Then they
dash out to Lake Success which
takes As minutes, in time for the
convening of committees at 10:45
They recess from l to 3 for liaison
and lunch and are back in COM
| mittee meetings from 8 till s
Then they go back to the lounge
for more comments before retir-
ing to their Offices to read and
answer State Department tele-
grams. They finally take off fol-
New York by 7, get into the Big
City by 7:45 and are usually due
at dinner by 8. Top delegates are
wined and dined by other delegates
almost every night in the week;
lesser ones three or four times a
week. About so per cent Of all
dinners are stag affairs where more
business is discussed. d.
But they seem to thrive on
being up to their eyes in U. N.-wise,
It's an absorbing game Of political
chess.
When the new building in New
York City is completed, they will
all save time on the transportation
Narrow and practically all glass
between floors. If the delegates
can see through each other as
easily as they can see through
that building, they can save lot
of conversational time too.
Evening star., 1949-11-16

Washington hotel lobbies are
notoriously interesting because
nationally known persons are apt
to walk through at any hour OF
the day, but for sheer fascination
the Delegates Lounge at Lake
SUCCESS beats them all. 1t is not
just gathering place for big
officials; it is the crossroads OF
nations.
Decorated in comfortable mod
ern, pleasantly lighted. and CEN
tered by an ever active U-shaped
bar, it has four wide entrances
through which at any moment
might walk a foreign looking,
unusually-garbed native Of Italian
Somaliland or the familiar Amer
ican figure Of Mrs. Franklin D.
Roosevelt. But what makes it
better than a stage show for the
visitor, is not so much the i'm
portance of its people as the world
business they are all so intent
upon accomplishing.
And apparently considerable
part of United, Nations business is
accomplished in the lounge over'a
drink. So essential is this part
that every big delegation main
tains staff of liaison men for
the purpose Of expressing their
own views and sounding out the
other fellows. It may not be
such a hot commentary on, the
ways of the world, but they say
that on election day last week
when all New York bars were
closed until Z in the evening,
everybody shut up like clans and
business in the lounge reached a
new low!
Circulating in this cosmopolitan
meeting place between l and 2
o'clock on Monday. saw the
United States handsome Hayden
Raynor who is Principal Area Ad-
visor for Europe: Bill Sale. Capital
bachelor and his assistant, and
Ted Maffitt. a permanent member
of the United States Mission to
the U.N. All three are liaison men
and could have been celebrating
on Warren Austin's speech or
Vishinsky's TRADE. Blu Sale. in

job at the State Departments
Italian Desk before long. to join

ment.
Jack Cabot is another one OF
Raynor's assistants at the U.N.
Both he and Lewis Clark were
stationed in China until the Com
munists moved in, are now on
duty at the General Assembly
pending new assignments. I saw
them in the delegates dining

Evening star., 1949-11-16

Often a wife viii ask: rs 1t
bad taste to mention to friends
when inviting them to a party
for my husband. that 1t Is his
birthday? My reason for explain
ing is to keep the secret from
John; also to induce some Of them
to make an effort to come. And
yet, I don't want any to feel
obliged by this to bring presents"
AS a rule, some of his friends
know about the birthday anyway
and will bring presents. In this
case others who didn't know are
made to feel very uncomfortable
if they have nothing. You might
write, Surprise birthday party for
John," and add at the bottom. "No
gifts. please" At least this would
avoid any feeling Of obligation on
the part of those who do not
bring presents.
