parties were given to round out the

q little early yet to attract many
visitors to the Capital, a few have
come to take in the sights and en-
Joy the hospitality of their official
home town.

of Ohio was hostess at an especial
ly nice small party Friday evening
when she entertained In honor of

Sonora de Ivanissevich Is Given Farewell Party;
Col Reveredo Now Peruvian Foreign Minister

The Danish Ambassador and
Nine. de Kaufman are preparing
to move into their new residence at
1889 Woodland drive which the
Danish government purchased in
the autumn. The house formerly was
the home OF Mr.. and Mrs. Hugh r.
Wilson and since its purchase the
Ambassador and Mime. de Kauff-
mann have had many changes made
In the interior, especially in the
kitchen. The house, now occupied
by the Ambassador and his Ameri-
can-born wife was built by the first
Austrian republic for its legation
under the guidance of its only min
lister, DIR. Edgar Prochnik and Mrs.
Proohnik. They move in in 1880
and left it in 1888 after Hitler in
vaded their country and ordered the
NaI flag raised over the portal at
2343 Massachusetts, avenue.

Mrs. Taft Feted
|BvMrs. s.Heiberg

Mrs. ALI Heiberg gave a party
yesterday for Mrs. Robert A. Taft
and called 1t "hen housewarm-
ing.-or. asked one of her guests,
did she mean "henhouse warming?"
It was one and the same thing
yesterday afternoon. said the
hostess, as she greeted the hun
dred or more women who filled her
new. home near the Capitol.
Federal House, on the corner OF
First and c streets Sc, was built
in 1909 and occupied for a while
by John Eaton, Secretary Of War
during Andrew Jackson's admin
istration. A white brick building
with black shutters, 1t has had q
fascinating history. Mrs. Heiberg
has done 1t over very attractively
and has made the small dining room
and kitchen into one large dining
room and turned the adjoining two
car garage into kitchen. 1t Is
so close to the Capitol, the inim-
table Mrs. Heiberg says, that she
only has to open her window to
do her lobbying.
The guest wanted to see every
thing In the house-from the fine
old beams and original nails in the
basement to the lovely little outdoor
terrace on the second floor which
the new owner has just replanted.
Yesterdays 5 o'clock gathering
was practically a feminine Repub-
lican rally. The wives Of all RE
publican Senators were invited, as
were women who are active In the
League of Republican Women here
and the heads Of various Repub-
lican committees in nearby Virginia
and Maryland districts.
AS compliment to Mrs. Taft,
Representative Frances P. Bolton
Of Ohio and the wives Of other Rep
resentatives from Ohio were also
on this list. Mrs. John Hemphill OF
South Carolina and Miss Bertha
Joseph were invited to be contrast
ing Democrats, and two leading
Capital officials, Judge Fay Bentley
of the Juvenile Court and Capt.
Rhoda Milliken, were also included.

Gayety Marks
RedLand Races

Gayety climaxed the thrilling
point to point races Of the Redland
Hunt yesterday. For when horse
lovers from the Capital, Maryland
and Virginia got together to talk
about the exciting event, over deli
cious food and drinks, highly
enjoyable affair was in progress.
Had an applause meter been in
use, the instrument definitely would
have registered "tops in hospitality"
Brighton Hall, that popular meet
ing place for so many Montgomery
County functions, was selected for
this gala after-the-races affair.
Mr.. Thomas T. Mott, Redland's
M. F. H., acted as host for the
hunt. Receiving much attention
were the landowners who have given
the use of their property for the BIZ
weekly meets of the hunt. In fact,
the fete was arranged as a thank
you for these particular guests.
Generally assisting in seeing that
the guests had good time were Mr..
Joseph. Richards, jr., secretary of
the hunt, and the two honorary
whips, Mrs. Frank j. McSherry and
Mr.. Thomas T. Mott, jr. An orchid
to Mrs. James T. Lowe, who man
aged the refreshment and decora-
ton end of the function for her
husband, who was chairman of the
Entertainment Committee.
Mrs. Lowe was ably assisted by
Mrs. McSherry, Mrs. Richards, Mrs.
Thomas T. Mott, jr.; Mrs. Anthony
Auth, Mrs. Marian Curran, jr.; Mrs
Fletcher, Mrs. william Gary
and Mrs. Edward H. Cashell. Among
others were Mrs. William Bowling,
whose husband was secretary of yes
terday's Race Committee; Mrs. JOS
eph Burrows, Mrs. William Wilson,
Miss Betty Wilson, Mrs. Albert Ker-
shaw, Mrs. Nancy Hanna, Miss Judy
Johnson and Mrs. Donald Sancy.
Mr.. William r. Carl did more
than his share to make the affair
the great success it was.
Many out-of-town guests were at
the festivity after the races at the
farm of Mr.. and Mrs. Oscar Martin.
A very popular one was Miss Betty
Werber, who came down from New
York especially for the occasion. Miss
Werber has taken part in many of
the winter meets of the Redlanders.
Mr.. Edward Johnson, with Mrs.
johnson was here from Long Island
and the former was in charge of the
scales at the races. Mr.. John Nee

New Westinghouse Issue
EnIivens Bond Market
By the Associoted Press

NEW YORK, July 17.-An $8O.-
100000 offering was the liveliest bit
OF news in the bond market this
week.
The new WESTINGHOUSE Electric
Corp, issue represented the largest
public offering of an Industrial bond
issue since the marketing Of $780,
100000 Socony-Vacuum debentures
in June, 1916.
The 25-year 265 per cent deben-
lures were priced at 101 per cent
and accrued interest, and were over
subscribed quickly. The market itself
showed few signs Of life.
At the closing session, declines OF
a point or more were common. The
easing was spread over all groups
A selling wave in stocks and wage
and probable price increases in the
steel industry contributed to the
decline.
Railroads had expected announce
ment by the Interstate Commerce
Commission of its decision on their
application for a freight rate in
crease. At the weekend they still
were waiting the finding.
Demand was light throughout the
week and the volume hung around
the $3,500,000 mark on most days.

Support for Wa|kout
Expected in Ford Vote
~ me Assoeiossd Press

DETROIT, July 1.-THE 49,
900 Ford Motor Co. production work.
ers across the Nation are finishing
strike vote this week end.
Union spokesmen predicted they
would favor the walkout by q large
majority. -.
The 100-man Ford Council of the
CIO United Auto Workers already
has supported a strike after weeks
of deadlock over wages. and other
contract issues. and the UAW- CLOS
International Executive Board will
be asked Monday to give its as
sent.
Approval by both the rank and
file and the board would set the
stage for a shutdown at Ford's 46
plants. No strike date has been set
but the UAW-C1O has threatened
Q strike in the near future unless
q settlement Is reached.
The gate was not entirely closed
against a last-minute compromise,
such as averted a walkout a few
hours before the 1947 deadline. Both
sides said they are willing to resume
negotiations but neither wanted to
make the first move.
Ford offered to add 13 cents to the
current average production wage of
about $1.52 an hour. It also prom.
ised other contract improvements.
The UAW-CIO wanted q 14-cent in
crease plus social security grants
that would bring the total to about
81 cents.

Production Cuts Planned
By Cotton Textile Mills
~ The Assoeio,ed pysss

NEW YORK, July 1.-THE cotton
textile market this week was dull
while some mills, completing their
second week of extended annual
vacations, began gearing operations
for a lower volume of business.
Many mills, observers said, have
eliminated third shifts, Saturday
work; and overtime operations,
Print cloth prices held nrm, but
there was a general lack of buyer
interest. Merchants said the market
still was trying to stabilize itself
after many weeks of retreating
prices.
Some in the trade expect prices
on twills to ease, rejecting the
switch Of q considerable number of
looms from sheetings to twills
earlier in the season. Demand for
Osnaburgs was slow.
Further evidence that the indus
try is anxious for business was seen
In the fact that an Army call for
2,500,00O khaki shirts was heavily
oVersubscribed. Manufacturers Of
fered 9,356,000 units.
The wool goods market was quiet
while the trade waited for the OPEN
ings of spring 1949 lines. Makers of
high quality women's suits reported
considerable price resistance at re-
tail.

National Newspaperboy Day

National Newspaper Week is b eng observed
throughout the nation this year for the ninth straight
In 1889 the Newspaper Association Managers, In
corporated held its annual meeting in Chicago and
laid plans for the first program. 1t proved popular
almost at and number of other organizations
have cooperated in years since then
The original purpose of the plan was to Co
ordinate effort in to organized attacks and
criticisms aimed at weakening the prestige and IN
fluence of newspapers" The program has emphas-
lied year after year the place OF tree press IN
free community
No place on earth, except in the United States,
will one find newspapers with free voice as they
have today in the United States.
There have been, and undoubtedly will continue
as years 60 by to be efforts to gag the of this
country During the last world the newspapers of
the United States imposed voluntary censorship in
cooperation with the government as security meas
ure but by and large newspapers print the news as
they find it.
A development in the annual observance of Nat
onal Newspaper Week has been National Newspaper
boy Day. On this day the place of the boy who sells
and delivers the paper is stressed. On this day the
newspaper pauses to remember the newsboy
Being relatively young as daily newspaper, The
Herald, has not many carrier boys at present How
there 80 odd boys who delivering the
Herald to the homes in Roanoke Rapids
They, in recent days, in fact only yesterday
walked through cold drilling rain to their
customers reflects on the Herald. The Herald is
therefore, vitality interested in the neWsboys and is
striving to indoctrnate them in good business prac
Many of the nations great men have risen from
the ranks of the newspaperboy to place of promin
in nation.
Among this group Albert B. (Happy) Chan
dler, baseballs high commissioner, William 0. Doug
