And Mrs. Dulles

Diplomatic doings under the
new Republican administra-
ton had a uble-barreled
sendoh yesterday. In the after
noon, the chiefs Of foreign
missions and their wives were
received for the first time by
President and Mrs. Eisenhower
and according to secondhand
reports-the Ambassadors own
they were charmed by the
small White House affair.
Last evening, the diplomatic
chiefs gathered at the Philip
pine Embassy for the white tie
reception in honor of the Sec
retary Of State and Mrs. John
Foster Dulles, and speaking
from flrst-hand observations 1t
was a gay. delightful soiree
infused with the effervescent
spirit of the man who gave it.
Philippine Ambassador and
Mrs. Carlos Romulo were the
first on embassy row to en-
tertain for the new head of
State because of an incident in
Paris back in 1948. Gen.
Romulo. who probably knows
Secretary Dulles better than
any other envoy, was in Paris
at the time along with the
Dulleses, and he and his wife
planned a dinner in the lat
ter's honor to take place two
days after election in the Ritz
Hotel. The dinner was sched-
uled before election and there
were some who thought it was
to honor the new Secretary
of State under Tom Dewey as
it was freely predicted that
Dulles would be Dewey's Sec
retary Of State.
The dinner was held, Of
course, despite the election of
Truman. When the time for
toasts came, Mr.. Dulles stood
up and broke the ice by say
ing, Ladies and gentlemen, it
would seem that Mrs. Dulles
and I are here under false
pretenses. The company ap-
plauded, and it was immedi-
ately agreed that if and when
Mr.. Dulles became Secretary
of State, Gen. Romulo would
give the first dinner in his
honor.
Carlos Romulo, general,
statesman. author and Asia's
most articulate spokesman, is,
by the way, the subject of a
brand-new biography by Cor
nelia Spencer. Entitled ROM
ulo, Voice Of Freedom" it tells
the story Of his devotion to
independence and to America.
Mrs. Lord, RockefeIIers Guests
