Among them have been the Israell Navy or parts thereof; Lady Pibulsonggram, wife of the Prime Minister of ThalJand and a Senator in that country herself, and the Begum Shaista Suhrawardy Ikramullah, wife of the Foreign Secretary of Pakistan, The ambassador from Thailand and Princess Wan Waithayakon entertained in honor of Lady-Senator Pibulsonggram at an early evening reception at their Embassy. Lady Pibulsonggram wore the Thailand national dress, a sheath and bodice, and listened to innumerable cracks about “Anna and the King of Siam,” “The King and 1,” etc. This is building up to be as onerous for the Thailanders as ‘Call Me Madam” was for Perle Mesta,
