There suddenly seems to be
an appalling number Of
prominent ambassadors leav-
ing Washington.
Soon to 90 or already in the
process Of going are: the
Swedish Ambassador and
Nine. Bohemian. who will end
IL years here July /; the
Austrian Ambassador and
Mrs. 0ruber, who are de-
parting within one week: the
Australian Ambassador and
Lady Spender. who have been

sador and Nine. Zaroubin--
hts successor has just been
named: and. Of course, the
Norwegian Ambassador and
Nine. Morgenstierne. who
will no longer reside in the

will stay In Washington.

German Ambassador and
Mrs. Krekeler are also ex-
pected to pull up stakes soon.
He has not yet been ap-
pointed 10 q new post. but

matte role with charm. taste
