He lunched with Prime Minister King, dined with U. S. Minister William Phillips. At a state dinner given by the Government, he bespoke "rivalry without bitterness" and proceeded to a reception given by Governor-General and Viscountess Willingdon. Returning home after four days, he brought a thorough going invitation to President Coolidge to visit Canada...
