under IA, children must sit on
grownups' laps in order to be ad-
mitted. As courtesy to Repre-
sentative Crosser, who was in o.
wheel chair, Representative William
A. Rowan of Illinois held 9-year-old
Nancy, while Representative Mat
thew M. Neely of West Virginia held
her older sister. Both children
wore identical apricot-color frocks.
Their father is a lieutenant in the
Coast Guard on duty in the Phil
ippines.
Mrs. Eisenhower, wife of the
famous general, whose smile is as
infectious as her husbands, came
in for her share of attention, too,
yesterday. She wore modist black
frock and small black hat trimmed
with white flowers and yelling.
Representative Helen Gahagan
Douglas of Los Angeles, wearing her
chestnut hair in the pompadour
fashion which she favors and an
aqua-color frock with a rose color
shoulder strap bag, shared her seat
with her tow-haired, 11-year-old
son, Peter Gahagan Douglas. The
latter wore a white summer suit
and seemed to take in every detail
of the session.
Representative Emily Taft Douglas
of Chicago, wearing a black dress
with an all-over white leaf pattern,
held her small daughter, Jean, on
her lap. The latter wore school,
girl costume consisting of a dark
skirt and white blouse.
Representative John D. Dingell's
small daughter, julie Jane. who is
9, experienced one of the thrills of
her life, when Gen. Eisenhower
shook her hand as he passed her
seat on the center aisle. She wore
a light green dress and her long
golden hair was braided in pig
tails"
The ladies of the congressional
group, many of whom favor black
for office wear during the winter,
yesterday wore pretty pastel-color
summer frocks. Several pinned
little punches of garden flowers to
their costumes and one of these was
Representative Margaret Chase
Smith of Maine. A tiny little gold
urn filled with water kept fresh the
deep pink roses on her bright green
eyelet-trimmed frock, and Repre-
sentative Edith Nourse Rogers, who
had on white and black checked
suit, also had roses pinned to her
lapel. Though unadorned by flowers
OF any kind, Representative Frances
P. Bottoms lime-green linen dress
provided a note of color on her side
of the House, and former Repre-
sentative Virginia Jencks wore a
pink dressmaker frock, over on the
other side.
In the galleries there were few if
any vacant seats. I saw Mrs Henry
A. Wallace in the throng and noted
that she wore black and white
print frock and a white Baku hat
bound in black ribbon. Mrs. Robert
Woods Bliss also chose black and
white print which she trimmed at
the neck line with two white
garden roses. With it she wore
small black cloche, a multiple strand
of pearls and elbow-length white
gloves.
Senhora de Bianchi, wife of the
Portuguese Ambassador, and Sonora
de Mora, wife of the Chilean Am
bassador, were early arrivals and
sat together in the diplomatic gal
lery. The former wore print frock
IN shades of navy blue, gray and
rose, with modish navy hat
trimmed with large bow across the
front. Very sheer navy gloves COM
pleted her ensemble. Sonora de

WASHINGTON, May 16 (ANP)
The war department was not pre-
pared to say which units in Europe
are going to be deployed to the
fighting in the far east, nor was it
ready to say anything of the order
in which any of them might be
brought home. The department did
disclose, however, the identity of
the great bulk of Negro units that
are now in that theater.
Perhaps the largest outfit of Ne
gro soldiers is the 92nd Infantry di-

Sat. Frank Edwards
Home From India

Sgt. Frank Edwards is home in
Durant after serving in India for
two years. He received his discharge
at Camp Shelby and reached Durant
last week. He served with the 721st
Ry. Opr. Bn.
Frank has told some very inter-
esting things which happened while
he was in India. His outfit adopted
a little Indian boy who was under
nourished and scantily clad. They
bought him clothes and fed him and
looked after him. All the boys were
quite fond of him. When the time
came for Franks outfit to come
home the little fellow was heart
broken and the American soldiers
were not too happy to leave their
friend. AS a parting gesture of at
lection for him the G.. rs made up
ST, 100000 and placed the boy in a
Mission School. The money will be
enough to care for and educate the
child for many years.
