Commander of the Bath, and others I —donned for the President’s diplo- ' matic reception, first of the official social events of the winter. Beside him marched the Italian 1 ambassador, Giacomo De Martino, dean of the diplomatic corps (which means he has served the longest). Martino, reaching hardly to the ; lanky Britisher’s shoulder, was the i guest of honor. He strode about with a brisk, military step, shaking hands, smiling at all comers and peering at his fellow diplomats | through glod-rimmed price-nez. Across the floor was Katsuji Dej 'ouchi, tiny of figure, but massive of ! head and beaming of countenance, i the ambassador of the emperor of ! Japan. Debuchi’s carriage was erect, despite the obvious weight of the

, gold braid and medals with which he was encumbered. Down the long halls of the White House to the blue room, mecca of tourists and diplomats, moved the brilliantly clad guests. There President Hoover stood with Mrs. Hoover shaking hands, bowing and smiling as uniform after uniform paused a moment before passing on to the cast. The President's “uniform,” in keeping with the sober tenets of democracy, was simple evening dress. The Americans were not without their dash of color, however. The marine band contingent splashed blue and red and gold in the east room, playing for the diplomats and dowagers to dance.
