...with the authority of a man who has not let his own dealings with Russia dim his basic Western sympathies. And he obviously has an admirer in Lyndon Johnson. "When I visited Iran just five years ago," the President noted last week at a White House dinner for his guest, "Iran's land reform program had barely begun. Today, 50% of Iran's rural families farm their own land. Some 7,000 rural cooperatives have been established and 800 extension corpsmen are helping farmers acquire new skills."

George Gershwin was a frequent visitor, wrote most of Porgy and Bess in a guest cottage tucked away on a corner of the grounds. The Mosbachers wintered comfortably in Palm Beach; summers were given oyer to sailing on Long Island Sound, first in the family shell boat, and then, when Bus was nine, in his own boat: a Star.
