before the Appropriations Commit tee
 The deans of all the Congress- ional delegations were invited to Sheppard's party at the Congress ional Hotel, where he served a buf- fet luncheon of ham and roast beef, with plenty of liquor to wash 1t down
 Sheppard admitted this was the first time ir his 2 years on Capitol Hill that he had ever sponsored such gala affair, but he sharply denied that it was financed by the power lobby
 T always pay my own bills.' he protested Why, I don't even have charge account"
 He explained that. a chairman of the California delegation, he simply wanted to entertain the heads of Congressional delegations from other states.
 The power companies" he snap per, had nothing to do with that party"
 Sheppards integrity has never been challenged by these who know him. Yet, no matter who paid for the party or what purpose may have been intended. it had the ef- feet on many Congressmen of high pressuring. All those attending the luncheon contacted by this col umn felt that the party had some connection with the power question.

POWER LOBBY NEARLY WINS

An interesting, private party was thrown by Congressman Harry Sheppard of California the other day. following which he and the private power lobby came within three votes of short-circuiting the administrations public-powsr pro- grem.
 The legislation that Sheppard and the lobby tried so hard to de- feat provides for transmission lines as an outlet for public power in West Without these arteries, the heart of the Roosevelt-Ickes power program would be killed. Truman had made continuation of this pro- gram his No campaign promise to the West last summer; and had blasted the Republicans and other friends of Pacific Gas and Electric who tried to ban government trans mission lines to distribute power.
 Yet the man who led the fight against the transmission lines was a Western Democrat-Sheppard of San Bernardino, California What is even more strange, this same Sheppard also threw lavish party for influential Congressman from each state-the week end before the power issue was scheduled to come

cHuRCHILL,S BRANDY

When Winston Churchill visited Washington during the war some one always saw to 1t that he was not without his famous brandy vintage l848
 Since the war, however, Labor Government has taken over the British Embassy, and is much less concerned about the niceties of drink or food; while the present occupant of the White House IS a connoisseul not of brandy but of bourbon.
 On his latest trip, therefore, Churchill found himself without his favorite brand of Napoleonic bran dy For a time things looked ser ious. A search of the British Elm rassy wine cellar revealed that not a drop of the Churchill brand was on hand.
 Finally the search extended to and their individual cellars, and Au- brey Morgan, a British diplomatic members of the British Embassy secretary, came up with one bottle of 1911 brandy which he cheerful ly donated to Britain's famed war leader. Churchill drank it after he returned from President Tru- mans dinner.
 Note-Churchiil had the Duke of Windsor to thank for the brandy The Duke left it behind follow ing his last visit in Washington.

HOLLYWOOD, Dec. 3.-Mme.
Maria Ouspenskaya, 73-year-old
character actress, died today at
the Motion Picture Country Home
from burns suffered while smok-
ing in bed at her apartment early
Thursday.
Nine. Ouspenskaya was 48
years old before she ever played
a role in English, She quickly
advanced to become a distinguish
ed character actress in both
Broadway stage and Hollywood
screen roles.
She was the mad countess of
Greta Garbo's Conquest" Charles
Boyers grandmother in Love
Affair" and the Maharani in The
Rains Came"

worth" in. 1886, when she re-

earlier on the stage.
Trained in Moscow.
A graduate of the. Stanislavsky
school of the Moscow Art Theater.
she first appeared in an English
speaking part at the Greenwich
Village Theater in New York in
1924. She played the role of
Paris Pigeons in The Saint
However. she had played on
Broadway previously in a Russian
role when she appeared in "Tsar
Fyodor Ivanovitch" with the Mos
COW Art Theater Company here

With the Moscow group. Nine.
Ouspenskaya became noted for
her performances in "The Three
Sisters" THE Cherry Orchard" !"

classics.
Nine. Ouspenskaya always was
worried about the way she spoke
English, and once enrolled in two
courses in English phonetics at
the same time at Columbia Uni
versity in an effort to achieve a
perfect Shakespearean accent.
Reprimanded Director.
She was a determined charac-
ter. A movie director once at
tempted to "shoot around her so
she could sleep late.
Don't push me around" she
reprimanded him when she ap-
peared on the set at 4:30 am.
I'm an old timer and I like to be
my own boss"
During the war Nine. Ouspen-
skaya did much canteen work for
the Armed Services and was proud
OF the fact that she had been
made an honorary member of
the crew of the U. S. s, Battle
ship New York. She also did much
work in assisting the blind in
clinics.
Recently she operated a dra-
matte school on Sunset boulevard.
I'VE called her madame" said
one. without kRpFing whether
it's an ofiicial lltlke the Brit
ish dame. But 10 one would dare
call her Maria. and her last name
was too long for daily USE"
Madame said true actor would
be equally at home in any medium
movies, the stage. television,
even the circus-that actors who
feel they can reach audiences in
but on medium suffer from a
feeling of inferiority. 81
1.-THE technique Of actin G
changes constantly" she declared.
what was good in 1918 could
have been bad Is years later.
What was marvellous even tn 1888
Emay not be acceptable now. p,
:But acting principles never
change. Good acting Is what it
always has been and always will
be-the re-creating of a reality"
