When German Chancellor Ludwig Erhard visited in June, Lady Bird laid on a sumptuous state dinner beneath the stars in the Rose Garden and brought in Ballerina Maria Tallchief and the National Symphony Orchestra for entertainment.

Banqueters and scouts had something in common: the Bank of London and Mexico, Mexico's oldest bank.
