Dear Marian:
An Interesting tradition of the Navy
ships that past Mount Vernon on the
Potomac waa noted by Secretary and
Mrs. Douglas McKay Saturday evening
when they were guests of Secretary of
the Navy Robert Andenon and Mra.
Andenon at a dinner party on the "Se
quoia." The Andersons were enter
taining at Potomac dinner cruise in
honor of Mr. and Mn. Antonio J.
Barmades, of Mexico City. He is a
former national senator of Mexico and
now serves as petroleum administrator
for the country. The special observance
that the guests watched from ship tide
waa the 21 -bell salute from the ship as
it passed Mount Vernon, with the men
standing at attention. A recording of
"Taps" and "The Star Spangled Banner"-
completed the ceremony that hon
ored the home and final resting place
of the first President, and the McKays
reported it an impressive moment. The
group of 26 enjoyed a buffet dinner
folowing the brief ceremony.
Prior to the dinner, the McKays had
called at the Cuban Embassy where
Senora de Batista, wife of the Presi
dent of Cuba, was the honoree. The
Embassy with its beautiful white
marble stairway and crystal chandelien
provided an attractive background for
the vivacious First Lady of Cuba. Par
ticularly striking Is the dining room
with its bright red carpet and draperies.
Ambassador and Senora de Concheao
received with their guest in the brown
and gold music room and more than
600 guests called to greet the visitor.
Both the hostess and the honored guest
wore ballerina length dresses of black,
with diamonds glittering a contrast.
Incidentally, the exterior of the Em
bassy is architecturally similar to the
famous Morro Castle in the Havana
Harbor. Yellow, bronze, and white
"mums" were used lavishly and were
especially effective in the blue and
gold drawing room.
Custom or protocol in Washington
calls for the ladle of the cabinet to en
tertain at some type of function In
honor of the President's wife. A lunch
eon at which Mn. Herbert Brownell
was the hostess Friday noon was the
, event chosen by the wife of the At
torney General for her part in the series
of parties that are being held through
the fall and winter months. Mn. McKay
enjoyed folksy conversation with the
First Lady as the group aat about the
