Arrangements for the afternoon were | the same as for each of the other gar- den parties at Woodley, Mr. Charles L. ke, master of ceremonies of the State Department, making the pres- entations, and there were gay umbrellas over little tables about which the visi- tors sat and chatted, gay markees from which refreshments were served and everywhere a cordial relation among guests, Not only were the officials invited, but they were asked to bring their fami- lies, resulting in bevies of charmning girls in gay garden party frocks. As- sisting gen were Mr. Willlam R. Castle, jr., Undersecretary of State, and Mrs. Castle; Assistant Secretary and Mrs. J. Wilbur Carr, Assistant Secre- tary and Mrs. Francis White, Dr. Keith Merrill, Mr. Herbert Hengstler and his mother, Mrs. Hengstler; Mr. Stanley Hornbeck, chief of the Far Eastern af- fairs; Mr. and Mrs. Richard Southgate, | Cliff Mr. and Mrs. Walter Schoellkopf, re- cently returned to Washin, tached to the department; Mrs. B.
