IYear-0Id Girl Dies
After Cleaning Fluid

Margaret CIarissa Eley. who

yesterday in Sibley Hospital as the
result OF an upset bottle OF clean
ing fluid which splattered IN her
face last Saturday
The l3-month-old victim was

Mr.. Eley is mechanic al Boiling

Mrs. Eley told police she had
been using a bottle OF carbon tet-
rachloride TO remove a spot from
a dress. She said the upcorked
bottle was setting near the edge
of a kitchen table.
The baby had been crawling
around the house most OF the
afternoon. Mrs. Eley said. She
crawled between me and the table
and the next thing I knew she
was clutching the bottle and pull
ing II toward her with both
hands"
Mrs. Eley said she grabbed the
bottle with one hand and her
daughter with the other. The con-
tents Of the bottle splattered in the
baby's face. Mrs Eley stated. add
| ing that Il think her mouth was
open-but I didn't believe she
swallowed any of the fluid

despite the maneuvers Of the Brit

Lisbon, where Don Juan lives. He
wants to sit on the throne of his
ancestors, but not yet.
Franco Not Opposed.
Gen. Franco himself is not op-
posed to restoration of the mon
archy, provided that he himself
holds the power behind the
throne. This Don Juan will not
permit. The pretender has enough
supporters to make a spectacular
coup If he wished, but he does
not. Conditions in Spain are eco
nomically bad. Not only has this
years drought absorbed the coun-
try's last reserves but all the in
dustrial equipment is worn out and
must be continuously repaired to
permit even a modest level Of
production.
The value of the currency is
shrinking rapidly and there is
nothing in the offing to encourage
optimism except the determination
of the Spanish people to carry on
despite the present handicaps. If
that determination is thwarted by
political maneuvers and agitations
which at this time exist only in
nucleus-the situation might be-
come tragic. Don Juan does not
want the throne under such con-
ditions. He would rather see Gen.

The President urged his Secur-
ity Administrator to take plenty OF
time to familiarize himself with
the situation, especially in Britain.
This means that Mr.. Ewing will
probably not return until mid
January.

This Changing World
Spanish Throne in Reach of Don Juan;
Coup Unlikely Under Economic Plight

Franco struggle along and pull
his own chestnuts out OF the f1re.
Once this crisis has been over
come-and Don Juan hopes Amer
lcan aid will be forthcoming soon
enough to rehabilitate SPANS
economy-then he will be free to
take over. It is for this reason
that his followers have been urg-
ing London and Paris to moder-
ate their attitude toward Spain
and also that the same adherents
are pleading with their American
friends to urge the United States
Government to start helping this
country economically and imam
cially. The worse the situation
becomes the smaller are the
chances for the restoration Of the
monarchy and the greater the
chances that Gen. Franco will
remain indefinitely Spain's die
tator.
Exchange of Letters.
Gen. Franco and Don Juan did
not meet during the formers re-
cent visit to the Portuguese cap
ital. It was never intended that
they should, according to foreign
ers in Madrid who are in a position
to know what goes on behind the
scenes in this kingless kingdom.
But while he was the guest
of honor of the Portuguese gov
ernment Gen. Franco did receive
a letter from Don Juan. congratu-
lating him for his wisdom in
going to Portugal to cement the
old friendship Of the two Iberian
states and wishing him the best
of luck in the difficult task he
still has ahead Of him in Spain.
Ell Caudillo replied. thanking
Don Juan for his friendly senti-
ments and assuring him that he
will continue to devote his ener-
gies and his life to the welfare
of the fatherland.
+ This exchange of letters, which
was not broadcast throughout
Spain, is known to the royalist
leaders and their present associates
the Socialists-and dampened
whatever hope they had Of seeing
Don Juan back in Madrid In the
near future. They say now that
only war or q drastic improvement
in economic conditions In Spain
could put the uncrowned king
back on his throne.

Better Shots Than I Am.
But what did I bring in?
Well, let's see.
One lost temper. one disguised
bird dog, and the worlds record
for shooting the tops of small
trees and big bushes.
There isn't 80 much as one
feather in my coat, and unless
the other men who are out here
with me shooting over Dixie Skin
ner's acres are better shots than
I am we are going to sit down to q
game dinner Of pork and beans
and peanut butter sandwiches.
Well, there's this consolation-a
peanut butter sandwich Is easy
to clean, and no one will be able
to argue as to whether the beans
are rare or not.
Each year I swear on stack
of bird dogs that won't ever go
hunting again. and each year l
break this vow. I am going to
alter my vow q trifle this year. and
pledge that in the future I will
confine my hunting to the main
wing Of some well-endowed muse
UNI OF natural history. such as
the one In New York. There the
birds and beasts are stuffed and
mounted. and inclosed I'M glass
cages, and offer a fellow a decent
shot.
Unfair to Hunter.
Birds in their natural state are
not fair to the hunter. Instead OF
flying slowly. in a straight line.
and out in the open. they shove
their accelerators to the floor
board, dipsy and doodle in a most
disconcerting manner, and duck
behind trees and bushes which
hide them from view.
Ihave a theory that part OF this
unseemly behavior on the part OF
game birds is the fault Of hunts
men. It has long been the custom
to begin hunting birds early IN the
morning when birds. like men. are
usually at their best. It is Just
latter daybreak that the feathered
ones are at their friskiest. They
]have had a good nights sleep. are
as chipper as can be. and strictly
on the alert.
| I believe that birds should be
hunted in the early afternoon,
after they have put away q few
martins and q heavy lunch. and
are browsing over their desks after
the manner Of radio and adver-
tising executives.
