matte toga sometime this fall and
return to nearby Staunton Hill"
for a well-deserved rest and re-
tirement.
Mr.. Bruce has been in the ser

adult life. He was an artillery Cap
tain in World War I and Air Force
Colonel in World War IL But be-
fore the last war was over, Mr..
Bruce was key figure in the top
secret Office Of Strategic Services
From there he moved on to the
State Department where he served
as undersecretary to Dean Acheson
and when the administration chang
ed in 1852 his close friend and init
mate, President Eisenhower saw to
it that David Bruce was his key
man in negotiations with w t
Europe in setting up and organic
ing NATO. and in later trouble
shooting anywhere he was needed
He had been rowing ambassador
to all West Europe and finally Am
bassador to France and to West

that much of the success Of the

In western Europe is due to David
