Unflftwuol Photo, President and Mrs. Hoover Will Lead in Entertaining Fidac Congress Members Secretary and Mrs. Stimson and’ Okiérs to Join / in Extending Courtesies to Delegates the Coming Week. BY SALLIE V. H. PICKETT. HE President and Mrs. Hoover and many members of the exec- utive family will be in Washington this week and the Secretary ' of State and Mrs. Stimson and others will be with the Chief Executive and Mrs. Hoover when they entertain—probably at a lawn party—for the delegates to the eleventh annual congress of the Federation Interalliee des Anciens Combattants, Fidac, Thurs- day afternoon. The Secretary of State and Mrs. Stimson, the Secre- tary of War, Mr. Hurley, and others will enter into the almost over- filled program for the visitors. ASHINGTON will fairly glisten with orders and decorations this week. Some of the World War heroes like M. Marcel Heraud of France, honorary president of the Fidac; Baron Roger-Marie d’Avigneau, also of France; Lieut. Gen. Racul Pontus of Belgium, Col. John Brown of Great Britain, Gen. Sir Ian Hamilton of the same country, who served as chief of staff to Lord Kitchener in 1901-2 and is an author of note, and others, wearing the decorations of many countries, will flaunt the medals and decorations achieved on the fields of battle. |A MERICA’'S branch of the Fidac will gather its officers for the congress and they, too, will adorn themselves with the decora- tions which have scarcely ever been seen since they were bestowed. Nor will all the honors of the visit fall to the men, for the Women’s Auxfllnrf of the Fidac is as powerful abroad as it is at home. Many distinguished women—who also have been decorated for heroism— besides Princess Alexandrine Cantacuzene of Rumania, president of :llllen luxi{lnry, will be in the Capital and add great incentive to enter- ment. ADY EDWARD SPENCER CHURCHILL of Great Britain, who is honorary president of the Fidac Auxiliary, is president of the women'’s section of the British Legion. Mme. Jean Goy, youthful and handsome, is the secretary general of the Fidac Auxiliary, and equally notable women come from France, Belgium, Great Britain, Poland, Rumania and Jugoslavia, WHILE the Hot Springs in Virginia, Old Point Comfort and other all-the-year-around resorts will continue to claim many of those who add luster:to society here, others are returning. Tomorrow the Ambassador of Turkey, the Ambassador of Japan and the charge d’affaires of Germany, all of whom enjoyed the beauties of mountain life at their Summer embassies at Blue Ridge Summit, return. The Ambassador of Belgium and his family, who have spent some time at a comfortable place on the South River near Annapolis, Md., will come to the embassy, on Massachusetts avenue. 'HE Minister of Siam, Maj. Gen. Prince Amoradat Kridakara, and his charming family are en route from Lake George, where they spent the Summer, and the Minister of Panama and Mme. Alfaro, who were among the very few diFlomats to go to New England this season, will arrive from Ogonquit Tuesday. With Prince Amoradat Kridakara will come members of his staff and also that clever writer who is in charge of Siamese students, Mr. Murray Sheehan, whose boglfi, ;;Ecdlen." has gone through several editfons, though only recently published. THE Speaker and Mrs. Longworth have made a visit to the North i4 Shore of Massachusetts, takin}; with them their daughter Paulina and giving her her first glimpse of the scenes of some’ of her mother’s happy childhood days. All during Mrs. Longworth’s girlhood she ulpom let a Summer pass without visiting her grandmother, the late Mrs. Lee, and on one occasion, when a motor trip was worth while m‘entlomlr;‘gt, she and a girl friend motored from Newport to or & visit. - - Vice President, Mr. Curtis, who always lends his congenial resence at affairs of state, will spend the Autumn with his brother-in-law and sister, Mr. and Mrs, Edward Everett Gann, at their charming Cleveland Park home, returning to his apartment in the Mayflower before the opening of Congress. ‘AND in the meantime society women are having a quiet little chuckle over the drawing room chatter and annotations on the book on beverages by Roxana B. Doran, wife of Dr. James M. Doran, prohibitionist, The title of this most useful, interesting and unique compilation, which has as its leading contributor Mrs. Herbert Hoover, is “Prohibition Punches.” It is a clever little woman who produces Webster's definition of punch as “a beverage of rum, whisky. | yrg etc., water, lemon juice and sugar.” ' Dorrance, the publishers, she suggests, might have better proposed the title of “Prohibition Beverages,” which suggests simply a liquor for drinking. However, it is the making of the White House fruit punch which is worth the price of the zook, though notable contributors are lm«:t and the (Continued on Page 3, Column 8J, SOCIETY SECTION he Sunday Star.
