S8OCIETY. Legations of Canada And Greece Are Scenes Of Festive Receptions Envoy and His Wife Honor M. and Mme. Theophanides; Brig. and Mrs. Letson Feted Massachusetts avenue was unusually popular yesterdsy afternoon between the hours of 5 and 7 o'clock, for the Canadian Legation in the 1700 block and the Greek Legation on Sheridan circle were the scenes of receptions, each envoy honoring one of his countrymen, Greek Minister and His Wife Receive Guests at Legation, The Greek Minister, M. Cimon P. Diamantopoulos, received the guests yesterday afternoon with Mme. Diamantopoulos, although the cards were issued only in her name. Standing with them were the Greek Minister of Merchant Marine, M. Stavro Theophanides and Mme. Theo- phanides for whom the party was planned. The several hundred guests included heads of missions representing the 26 nations who are Allies in the present war, with Federal officials of the Government of this country. ‘The spacious rooms of the very attractive Legation, familiar to old Washington residents when it was the home of Mrs. Hennen Jennings, SO e —— were gay with quantities of early spring blossoms and on the tea table were blue delphinjum and larkspur with white carnations and roses, carrying out the national colors of Greece. Mme. Diamantopoulos was as- eisted by the wives of members of the Legation staff, strangely enough, each wearing black, with long skirts, but each having a distinction in the trimming. The hostess herself was in black, her gown of jersey being relieved by the bright little clips at the neckline. Her guest of honor, Mme. Theophanides also chose black; its severity relieved by gold ornaments. Mme. Depasta, wife of the Min- Sster Counselor of the Legation; Mme. Philon, wife of the First Sec- retary, and Mme. Koundouriotis, wife of the Chancellor, alternated at the tea table through the afternoon, Former Envoy to Moscow And Wife Among Guests. ‘The former Greek Minister at Moscow, M. Christo Diamantopou- los, who formerly was counselor of the legation here, with Mme. Dia- mantopoulos, were among those in the large company. Mme. Diaman- topoulos, who assisted during the reception hours, was a bright figure among the other assistants, wearing & frock of periwinkle blue. M. and Mme. Diamantopoulos, who have been at the Shoreham for several weeks, will leave shortly for London, where he has been appoint- ed Greek Minister to the govern- ments of the Netherlands and Yugoslavia. Mr. Spyro Skouras, who is head of the Greek War Relief in this country, and who has arranged per- formances to add to the Relief Fund, was among the several hundred guests and held an impromptu re- ception of his own wherever he stopped to chat. Canadian Fete Honors Brig. and Mrs. Letson. ‘The reception at the Canadian Legation which the Minister and Mrs. McCarthy gave for the retir- ing Military Attache and Mrs. H. F. G. Letson, was smaller, the hosts having asked between 200 and 250 guests to bid them farewell. Brig.

The office of military attache was first established by Air Com- modore W. R. Kenny, who came here to open the office of air attache and military attache, which posts he held for many months until the ar- rival of Brig. Letson. Air Commodore Kenny recently retired as Air At- tache and with Mrs. Kenny went to’| Florida where it was hoped his health would improve. Brig. and Mrs. Letson received with the hosts, standing at the door of the wide drawing room across the front of the Legation building on Massachusetts avenue. Mrs. Mc- Carthy was dressed in black trimmed with silver, & very becom- ing costume to her soft white hair, and Mrs. Letson also wore black, the blue collar relieving the som- berness of the black. Many American Officers Are Among Guests. Brig. and Mrs. Letson expect to leave Washington next week and will give up their apartment at 1661 Crescent place, which has been taken by Gen. Maurice Pope, Royal Canadian Army, and Mrs. . ‘The newcomers probably will ar- rive before Brig. and Mrs. Letson leave, but it is not decided whether Gen. Pope will be the new Military Attache of the Legation or whether that office will become the Cana- dian Military Mission.

The Federal agencies managed to get all this talent merely by notify- ing the Victory Committee, with- out benefit of an Arts Council mid- dleman. Needs No Talent. At the War Department it was said that no talent was needed. If the War Department does put on its own show it will use such talent as Chiang Kai-shek, it was said. When the recruiting division needed help in putting across its message the Army radio branch used its own radio agency contact men to get the message on popular programs. ‘Wayne King gave a narration, Bing Crosby a dramatization and “One Man’s Family” devoted & whole show to it. “We know the agencies that con- trol talent,” the War Department explained. “The man who writes a show knows who he wants on it. It couldn't be done through a cen- tralized agency.” When the big commercial broad- casters want to put on a show from one of the camps, they wire the Army’s radio branch and get a re- turn wire. Another agency, it was felt at the Army, would merely slow the machinery. The Navy leaves all writing and | producing of radio programs to the | individual radio sponsors. The Navy merely makes the material available, gives advice to script writers, and occasionally suggests that a pro- gram might be able to use a flavor- ing of Navy material. More often, | radio producers make the first move. They want Navy material on their shows. They don't have to be asked. The radio shows put on by the Navy itself use amateur talent gleaned from its own bases. Neither the Army nor the Navy eould think of any immediate use for artists. Both the Red Cross and the ‘Treasury Department’s defense sav- ings staff get names for personal appearances from the Hollywood Victory Committee. The Red Cross has representatives on the West Coast who clear with the committee. For its radio program, “For Amer- ica We Sing,” the defense savings | staffl leaves arrangements to the | Blue Network, which contributes the program. “I can't see where such & group as the Arts Council would be of much value to us,” said a Treasury official. The Red Cross has Irving Ber- lin’s “Angels of Mercy” as an ex- ample of what it has been given without the Arts Council. The Red Cross was mentioned by Mr. Douglas as one of the potential beneficiaries of the Arts Council. At Red Cross headquarters, however, an official said simply, “We make our own ar- rangements with Hollywood.” Wrongs Are Hosts The Minister-Counselor of the Canadian Legation and Mrs. Hume ‘Wrong will be hosts at the cocktail also that Pontianak, capital of Dutch ‘West Borneo, had been “completely occupied.” The Japanese previously had taken the little ofl-producing island of Tarakan, off the Borneo east coast; the East Borneo port of Balik Papan; the Menado region of Northern Celebes ,and the Ken- dari region of Southern Celebes. Japs Raid Seerabaja. The third air attack on Soerabaja, the Indies No. 1 naval base whose importance to the United Nations has been multiplied by the siege of Singapore, was reported by the com- munique, but it said the only dam- age was to the cookhouse. Full details of the raid had not been received and it was not known whether the attack was on the heavy scale of its predecessors or at what cost in enemy warplanes 1t had been made. Besides the attack on that po- tential invasion point on the island of Java, the communique reported Japanese raids also on Palembang, on the island of Sumatra; on the is- land of Bali which flanks Java to the east, and on *I rsed ob- Jectives,” but said all met with little success. ‘The “large enemy transport ship” Was sunk off the west coast of Borneo February 6 by two bombs, of which one hit directly and the other grazed the hull and exploded in the water, the bulletin said. “In a Netherlands Indies harbor,” it added, “a ship of the Royal Netherlands Navy and a merchant | ship were bombed by Japanese air- craft. Not one of the 55 bombs that were dropped hit its target. A Netherlands destroyer was attacked in Netherlands Indies territorial waters by seven hostile aircraft which, however, did not manage to score any successes.” Concerning the enemy claim to have put the Dutch fleet almost totally out of action a supplement to the regular communique said: “In connection with Japanese re- ports to the effect that the Nether- land Indies fleet has been totally de- stroyed by an enemy air attack, the commander of the navy states that the fleet is absolutely intact at sea and ready for action.” The naval report said further re- ports from the Dutch attack on Jap- anese ships near Amboina were be- ing awaited. Japs Report U. S. Ship ‘Damaged Beyond Repair’ TOKIO (From Japanese Broad- casts), Feb. T (#).—The Japanese Imperial Headquarters today claimed that the United States light cruiser of the Marblehead type and the Netherlands Indies cruiser of the Java class were damaged “be- yond repair” in the Japanese naval airplane attack on the United Na- tions fleet in the Java Sea Wednes- day. The Japanese previously reported that the two cruisers were merely damaged. ‘The communique also said it had been ascertained that the Nether- lands Indies light cruiser Tromp, 3,350 tons, also was heavily dam- aged in the same battle.

Ii)osevelt Praises Chinese War Effort In Message on Loan Note to Chiang Kai-shek Follows Swift Action Extending Half Billion Describing the resolute defense of the Chinese people as an inspiration to all the United Nations, President Roosevelt today informed General- issimo Chiany Kai-shek of the unanimous action of Congress in providing a $500,000,000 loan to the Chinese government. In a message, the President also paid particular tribute to the Chi- nese people for their willingness in applying the “scorched earth” policy to prevent the predatory armies of Japan from reaping any benefits during the early years of their con- quest of Chinese territory. The American loan, Mr. Roosevelt told the Chinese generalissimo, now the supreme commander of all the forces of the United Nations in the China war theater, will contribute substantially toward meeting the economic and financial burdens of his people. Source of Satisfaction. “It is a source of great gratifica- tion to me,” the President said, “and to the Government and people of the United States that the proposal which I made to the Congress that there be authorized for the purpose of rendering financial aid to China in the sum of $500,000,000 was passed unanimously by both the Senate and the House of Representatives and has now become law. “The unusual speed and unanim- ity with which this measure was acted upon by the Congress and the enthusiastic support which it received throughout the United States testify to the wholehearted respect and admiration which the Government and people of this country have for China. They tes- tify also to our earnest desire and determination to be concretely help- ful to our partners in the great battle for freedom. “The gallant resistance of the Chinese armies against the ruth- less invaders of your country has called forth the highest praise from the American and all other free- dom-loving peoples. The tenacity of the Chinese people, both armed and unarmed, in the face of tre- mendous odds in carrying on for almost five years a resolute defense against an enemy far superior in equipment is an inspiration to fight- ing men and all the peoples of the other United Nations. The great sacrifices of the Chinese people in destroying the fruits of their toil so that they could not be used by the predatory armies of Japan exemplify in high degree the spirit of sacrifice which is necessary on the part of all to gain the victory toward which we are confidently striving. Holds Loan of Wide Benefit. “It is my hope and belief that use which will be made of the funds now authorized by the Congress of the United States will contribute substantilly toward facilitating the efforts of the Chinese government and people to meet the economic and financial burdens which have been thrust upon them by an armed invasion and toward solution of problems of production and procure- ment, which are essential for the success of their armed resistance to what are now our common enemies. “I send my personal greetings and best wishes. I extend to you across land and sea the hand of comrade- ship for the common good, the com- mon goal, the common victory that shall be ours.” Civic Group Approves Arlington School Report The study made of the public schools of Arlington County by a committee of educators, headed by Dr. James H.

Set Up Salvage Unit A permanent Salvage Committee ‘was appointed last night at a meet- ing of the Chillum Heights Citizens’ Association following a talk by Albert J. Obert, chairman of the Speaker’s Bureau of the Junior Board of Commerce. Mr. Obert described the advantages and neces- sities for salvage in the war effort. The assoclation voted to use the money brought in by salvage sales to defray the cost of their local civillan defense organization. The Fort Stevens Post of the American Legion met with the asso- ciation and a joint membership campaign was decided upon. The association opposed increase in express bus fares and the removal of several bus stops in the Chiljum section. Sale of three tokens for 25 cents was indorsed. The meeting was held at the East- ern Star Home and was presided over by M. F. Finan, president.

The navy is continuing to do a lot of work around the island and Malayan shores under difficult circumstances.” 1,000 Troops Rescued. ‘The navy underscored his declara- tion with an announcement that more than 1,000 Imperial troops cut off from their main force by the Japanese march down the west coast of Malaya had been rescued by Brit- ish ships, The rescue work was undertaken over a space of several nights under extremely dangerous conditions. British boats sailed up Malacca Strait under the noses of the Jap- anese, took aboard the soldiers, and returned. Many soldiers hid on the main- land for several days while waiting for the fleet of sampans and fishing boats to take them to larger ships offshore. “The last launch to reach Singa- pore was so packed the men couldn't see anything but the mast,” said one naval officer who took part in the operation. Plea to Civilians. Gen. Percival called on all civil- fans to give their best to the de- fense efforts. He declared it would be necessary to thin the ranks of military defenders to keep essential services operating unless civilians stepped forward to man them. The commander said many women were being sent away because they would be better elsewhere. However, he declared that a number of women were remaining in Singapore, “doing valuable work.” Some island areas have been cleared of civilians, he said, to eliminate the possibility of fifth column activity in forward areas and for the good of the civilians Weddings of Interest To Washington Society Miss Dorothy Johnston Becomes Bride of Ensign E.
