WITH THIS STATE
MENT, President Eisenhower
perhaps brings to a close a
custom that dates way back
in our history-the custom of
giving regularly scheduled
social functions for the peo-
pie who move In Washing
tons official circles.
In so doing he has given
recognition of the fact that
the era of unhurried and un-
harassed, non-global living
has long since passed. In
short, White House social
tradition is at last catching
up with this shrHnken world
in which all nations are
neighbors and all chiefs of
state are close enough to
drop in on each other.
Protocol demands that such
foreign visitors be enter
tanned by our own chief Of
state at a state dinner.

Since ranking United States
officials are naturally in
cluded in these parties, 1t has
seemed increasingly super
fluous for the President to
turn around and give state
dinners for these same OFF,
Gals.
That the big social change
at 1900 Pennsylvania avenue
has occurred entirely within
the Eisenhower years is APP
parent fromythe schedule he
inherited.
When Mr.. Eisenhower be-
came President it was the
custom in normal peacetime
years to give IL regularly
scheduled social functions.
And that is the number he
gave in the l953-54 season.
His first year he and Mrs.
Eisenhower were hosts at six
dinners and five receptions.
The dinners were in honor
of the Vice President, the
Chief Justice. the Speaker.
the Cabinet, and foreign
ambassadors - the latter
group requiring two parties
to include them all.
The white tie receptions
that began at 8 o'clock hon.
ored the diplomatic corps,
the judiciary. the military
the Congress and Govern
ment departments.
For the l954-55 season the
President reduced the num-
Der of functions to 10 by
combining the military
and governmental recep-
tons. The following year all
social functions were elimi-
mated because of his heart
attack.
The 1861 season was
curtailed to three dinners
and three receptions pre-
sumably because it was an
election year and entertain
ing was put off until after
the Inauguration.
IN THE FALL OF 1857 the
White House announced the
diplomatic dinners would be
eliminated entirely and the
diplomatic reception would
be coupled with The military.
But the move was so I'M
popular with the foreign
chiefs of mission, who felt
that they should have din
ner at least once a year
with the man to whom they
were accredited and whom
many saw at no other time,
the dinners were reinstated.
But all receptions were
eliminated. However, the ad-
dition of a science-military
dinner brought the number
of functions to six annually.
Last season when this latter
dinner was not continued, the
number was further reduced
to five dinners. During those
two seasons, though. some 200
additional guests were &C
commodated at the musicale
that was presented after every
dinner.
NOW THE KNELL ON
WASHING TONS White
House season has been
sounded, at least for the
duration of the Eisenhower
administration. One can't
help thinking that no future
President is apt to reinState it.
What with kings, queens
and presidents sweeping into

ton at the rate of about one

and foreign ministers hot
footing 1t here every few days,
the social demands and cour-
tesy meetings involving the
American Chief Executive are
reaching fabulous proportions.
1t has long been noted that
due to the fact that the
American president combines
the duties Of both chief Of
state and head of government,
he is under greater pressure
than most Of his foreign
peers.
On him fall both the social
and business obligations that
are divided between chief of
state and prime minister in
England, France, Italy, Bel
GUM, and dozens of other
countries.
A LOOK AT MIR. Essen
HOWER'S forthcomin
schedule explains, no doubt,
why he has made this de-
cision at this time. In adj
dition to the visits of Toure
and Segni, there is pending
a visit by President Mateo of
Mexico, who was host to Mr..
Eisenhower last February,
plus the Presidents trip to
Bonn. Paris and London the
end of this month, plus his
reception here for Soviet
Premier Khrushchev the
middle Of September, plus
his own trip to Moscow later
this fall. And somewhere
in September he hopes to
receive Netherlands heir to
the throne, Princess Beatrix.
1t is obvious that there is
little or no time available for
the regular social calendar
that cuStomarily extended
from November to February.
Moreover the sudden plan
ming of these trips empha-
sizes how necessary it is to
keep the Presidents schedule
as fluid as possible. The old
fashioned fixed schedule for
formal occasions always an
nounced with a furry each
fall may never reappear.
