The power of a woman's
smile
For the first time in his
tory, a President of the
United States opened an ex-
hibit at the National Gallery
of Art.
For the first time in his
tory a work of art received
the honors of a chief of
state.
And for one of the rare
times in recent history, the
President and First Lady at
tended a state dinner at a
foreign embassy when there
was no visiting chief of
state.
All this happened be-
cause Of a member of the
frequently unappreciated
Fourth Estate. All this hap
pened because my colleague,
Edward Folliard, who had
been having a love affair
with La Gioconda for IA
years, asked Andre Malraux
last spring if Mona could
come to Washington.
The idea struck a reSpon-
sive cord in the mind of the
French Minister of Cultural
Affairs, who thereafter made
it a "fait accompli." The
idea undoubtedly received
encouragement from the
Kennedys, who were re-
sponsible for Mr.. Malraux's
visit in the first place.
But after all the excite
ment created by the paint
ing's arrival, after all the
reamS Of advance publicity,
