we work through our elected Of
ficials. It also means that when
elected officials fail in their du-
ties they should be turned out.
It also means that these same
officials must keep a finger on
the public pulse and react to ma
jority sentiment.
POSSIBLE
It is still possible for Kenne-
wick to find its way through the
labyrinth of confused trails and
seemingly insurmountabie OBJ
stacles. But it will take a lot OF
work and a lot of money. The
latter is a tough one. In fact
there are practically no prob
lens facing the city today that
money wouldn't answer. And we
can't always expect the state,
federal government or some 9TH
er Uncle BIN to pick up the
check.
POLLYANNA
am constantly being accused
of being a Pollyanna. Perhaps
that charge is justified. But I'm
willing to bet that if that lutte
fictional character were living IN
Kennewick today, she would ex-
press a faith in elected officials
and the people who elected them.

guests were drinking. Some Of
them were drinking q cocktail

for this occasion. It's q zippy
concoction of vermouth and
chartreuse.
Rita was demure, trying to lose
herself in the crowd. But over
and over again she answered the
same questions.
Yes, she is very happy.
Yes, there will be Moslem re-
ligious marriage service, probably
in Paris in few days.
Yes, she will return to make
more motion pictures in Holly
wood, but probably not before the
end of the year.
The honeymoon? All. that's

Later the Prince and Rita went
at the behest of photographers to
the edge of the chateau's SWIM
ming pool.
II know what you want all
right, a passionate love scene, !"
said Ally, but I'm afraid I'm not
a competent actor. The acting
talent is on the other side Of the
family"
He managed, however, to give
an authentic portrayal of a man
in love.
The Aga Khan, beaming and
leaning on cane, watched the
proceedings intently and man
aged to give many reassuring
little smiles to Rita.
Eight violinists strolled about
the pool playing musical hits from
Rita's pictures. An orchestra,
hidden behind some potted plants,
also played.
The whole scene was profuse
with flowers. One floral display
was so huge it had to be delivered
in a truck.
Courtship Lasted Year.
The wedding follows a courtship
of almost year.
The couple first met at q party
on the French Riviera last sum-
mer. From then on 1t was an
idyl covering half the world.
They visited Spain-Rita Is Of
Spanish and Irish descent-the
United States. Mexico and Cuba.
Rita caused a furor when she
refused to make a picture ready
for shooting In Hollywood and in
stead packed up and sailed with
Ally to spend Christmas in Ireland.
From Ireland they went to
London-then on to Switzerland
for the winter sports.

Truman Wants 10 Keep
Congress Until Most
OF Program Is Passed

President Truman wants Con-
sress to stay in session until the
major part OF his fair deal" leg
islation has been put through
and he still believes the $4.000.-
600 900 tax boost asked in Janu-
ary Is the only feasible way Of
balancing the budget.
The President re-emphasized
his attitude at a news conference
late yesterday, saying pointedly
that the program to which he Is.
committed doesn't mean that
Congress will adjourn July 81. the
statutory date fixed by the con-
gressional reorganization law.
Rayburn Promises Full Program,
Some members have talked
about such a quitting date. but
In commenting on the Presidents
stand, House Speaker Rayburn
said:
Before Congress adjourns it is
going to enact a very full and con-
structive program. There has been
no agreement among leaders Of
Congress and the White House for
the exclusion of any legislation"
After the Democratic congress
sional leaders had held their week
ly conference with Mr.. Truman
last Tuesday, newsmen got the
impression from Senate Majority
Leader Lucas that only three
major measures-reciprocal trade.
the Atlantic pact and labor
remain on the Senate's must"
list for this session. Specifically,
he said he didn't see how the Pres
ident's health program could be
taken UP.
But both Senator Lucas and the
President said yesterday that in
some quarters, at least. the Sen
ator's remarks had been miscon-
strued.
Labor Bill May Come Up Next.
Senator Lucas said that what
he had told reporters was that
Congress wants to quit July 81.
but that If the work is not fin
ished, it would have to stay in
session. Reporters had understood
him to put August as the absolute
terminal date.
In his new interview, Senator
Lucas said the bill calling for re-
peal of the Hartley Labor
Act may be the next big measure
considered by the Senate.
Previously. extension of the
Reciprocal Trade Act had been
first on the list, with ratification
of the North Atlantic defense pact
second and the labor bill third.
But the Senator said the Foreign
Relations Committee is not ready
for pact ratification and the Illness
Of Senator George. Democrat, of
Georgia, who heads the commit
tee handling the trade measure,
may force labor into the top spot.
Other measures on the. Truman
program. in addition to the tax
boost and compulsory health in
surance. include civil. rights. social
security expansion and farm leg
islation. sH
While repeating that he still
wants the tax increase as a means
Of keeping the Governments in

Truman also said the Treasury is
considering q plan by Representa-
tive Mills, Democrat. Of Arkansas,
to do the same thing by speeding
