SUGGESTIONS FOR THE CARLTON DINNER MARCH 28
President Truman and Mrs. Truman would precede the
President of the French Republic and Madame Auriol
to the Carlton Hotel by a few minutes.
The President and Mrs. Truman would enter by the
private door on K Street into the dining room.
The President and Madnme Auriol would then arrive
by this same entrance.
The two Presidents and their wives would remain in
the dining room while the guests are being lined
up by the White House Aides in the reception room.
At a given moment the doors to the dining room would
be opened and the President of the Frenihh Republic
and Madame Auriol and The President of the United States
and Mrs. Truman will be announced.
The President and Mrs. Truman and the President and
Madame Auriol would advance lined up as follows:
President Truman
President Auriol
Mrs. Truman
TIONAL ORDS S AND
Madame Auriol
SERVICE"
The assembled guests would then be presented.
Due to the language problem perhaps the French Am-
bassador and Madame Bonnet should escort the Presi-
dent and Madame Auriol to the Hotel, remaining with
them in the dining room. If this suggestion is
carried out, however, the Bonnet's should not be in
the receiving line.
