. ' Dear Marian: l
It has been a busy week again, but
Interesting and it has been fun.
Another Embassy tour attracted some
of us Oregonians last Saturday and with
Mrs. William B. Chandlee of Hillsboro,
my guest, we visited the English1 and
Japanese Embassies and stood in line
for more than an hour to enter the state
ly Georgian residence of the Arthur
Gardiners, where Mrs. Elsenhower and
Mrs. Nixon alternated in receiving the
guests. The President's . wife had left
before we reached the line, but Mrs.
Nixon was gracious In greeting the
hordes. In the line at that time, too, was
Mrs. William O. Dourlaa. whom Salem
Alpha Phis recall as Mildred Riddle, of
, La Grande. Once before I visited the
Japanese Embassy on a similar tour and
mentioned to you Its beautiful paintings
and art treasures, including magnificent
hand-embroidered screens. I wanted to
go again for one picture more than
anything else. It is "Pine Trees on the
Beach" by Taikan Yokohama, possibly
the most famous of all Japanese paint
ers. I can't do it Justice in description
as it must be seen to be appreciated.
While we didn't have time to cover the
other four embassies, the tour of the
British and Japanese and a visit to the
famous Mosque now under construction
as an Islamic Center were sufficiently
satisfying for the time available. The
Mosque is dazzling white with light
blue inlay over the entrance. The Brit
ish embassy, one of the most magnificent
in architecture and apointmente, was
built in 1930. Royal portraits of kings
and queens In their coronation robes are
on the walls of the staircases; beautiful
black and white flooring Is a specialty
of the architect, Sir Edwin Lnytens;
- lovely gardens and trees and shrubs
are on three levels surrounding the resi
dence; antique British china and fine
paintings grace the dining room and
- drawing room; and most r.agnlficent of
all, the ballroom with large mitrors In
a gunmetal tone, three fabulous old
crystal chandeliers, beautiful furniture
with soft peach and pale green damask
upholstery all combine to make i
room that Is impressive but somehow
not overpowering as some ceremonial
rooms might be. A special feature' in
one room was a huge band-tooled, color
ful leather screen depleting the battle
with the Spanish Armada.
Oregonians were many this last week
8EVERAL members of the P.E.O.
Sisterhood chapters in Salem will
be in Klamath Falls during the 1
mid-week to attend the annual state con
vention of the organization, June 1-4.
. Mrs. Robert L. Elfstrom from Chapter
G here goes as state recording secretary,
- Local delegates include: Mrs. R. L.
Porter, Chapter CB; Mrs. Harold Jory,
Chapter BC; Mrs. Glen Brledwell, Chap
ter AB; Mrs. Harry B. Johnson, Chapter
G; Mrs. William C. Perry, Chapter CQ;
Mr. Ervin L. Peterson, Chapter BQ. ,
Visiting briefly In Salem this week
were Mr. and Mrs. Vic MacKenzie. Sa
lem friends will be Interested to learn
the MacKenzies will be In Oregon for
the summer, having an apartment in
Portland.
. BY ALENE (PEG) PHILLIPS
which, of course, adds to the pleasure
. of working In Interior. . Ivan Laird and
Fred W. Adams, Oregon' legislators from
Coos and Curry counties, and C. W.
Brooks, of Sixes, were members of one
group who visited the Secretary.
Mr. and Mrs. Lars Peterson, of Coquille,
were in on their way to Copenhagen to
visit relatives and to make a pilgrimage
to his brother's grave in the Meuse
Argonne section. It Seemed natural to
see them coming into the office as we
saw them rather frequently at the State
Capitol since Mr. Peterson as a county
commissioner had considerable busi
ness with state departments. Attorney
General Robert Y. Thornton brought
greetings from Salem. He mentioned
that during the time he served as As-
i slstant Solicitor in the Interior Depart-'
mcnt he had never been in the Secre-
. tary's private office but on this trip he
was given the "deluxe tour." Among
other visitors were: Senator Joha C. F.
Merrlfleld, of Portland; Representative
Joe Dyer, Astoria; Jap Elliott, former
i superintendent of Warm Springs reser
vation but now with Army Engineer,
Portland; Mr. and Mr. Lowell Kern,
Portland, well known as former Salem
residents; Miss Jessica Longston, editor
of the St. Helens newspaper; James Mc
Donald, British consul in Portland, en
route to the Coronation with Mrs. Mc
Donald and their three children; Mr. and
Mrs. Virgil Ballentyne, the Utter a Sec
retary of State's office employe, visit
ing their son-in-law and daughter, Mr.
and Mrs. Sim Holman, who are here
during his Navy assignment; W. A.
Bnrdlck, Gold Beach, former member of
the State Board of Pharmacy; Berkeley
A. Davis, vice president of the Rogers
Canning company at Milton and Pen
dleton: W. L. J. Davles and George
A. D. Kerr, both vice presidents of the
U. S. National of Portland, enjoying
a visit with Secretary McKay.
With all that list for a single week
you can understand why it doesn't seem
so far across the continent Of course,
. in addition we saw the familiar faces
of at least a dozen public and private
power officials from Oregon, here rela
: tlve to contracts and for conferences
scheduled for them. The General Fed
eration of Women's clubs this week
will bring more Oregonians to Wash
ington. Don't you think it is time you
