81 said to the Princess-and the
Princess said to me :" Of course.
we would just love to report that
but the truth is-the Princess
Elizabeth did not say a word to me
at the Press and Radio Reception
held last Wednesday afternoon at
the Statler. But, Of course, even
cat can look at a Queen, so we
just looked and looked at both the
culture Queen Of England and her
Onsort, Philip, the Duke of Edin-
burgh.
The royal couple had not been in
the ballroom for more, than fifteen
minutes before all the women, at
least, had fallen in love with 1.-The
fairy princess" as President Tru-
man so graciously named her. Her
shy smile and clear-skinned beauty
and extremely chic clothes and
Philips ease and evident enjoy
ment of the occasion and his con-
slant watch over his famous wife
endeared them to all.
Now we are not going to devote
this whole column to the visitors
the newspapers and airways were
full of them last week, but pictures
and television did not properly
show the youthful color OF the pair
nor do justice to their clothes.
Philip on most occasions during the
46-hour stay in the Capital wore
his uniform at 1t. Commander in
the Royal Navy, respondent with
gold braid. The dress Elizabeth
wore to the press reception did not
photograph well-its check was ac-
tHally vague when seen at close
%nge-a soft green with a shadow
pattern in bronze, an exquisite hat
of bronze mesh, a three-string
pearl necklace and tiny pearl ear
rings.

Piggy Bank Savers
Urged Not to Hoard
Small Coins

Are you holding on to your
pennies nickles, too? Well,
pry open your piggy banks be-
cause the man with the long
white beard wants you to spend
them or get them into the bank
or any other place where he can
get his hands on them.
In short, Uncle Sam is short
OF pennies, nickles and even
dimes and who isn't? None
the-iess, a shortage of small
coins does exist and in some
Eastern States, New York in
particular, they are being ra-
toned to between rs and 80
percent of demand.
And why should the man who
owns the mint be short of small
change? Some Federal Reserve
officials opine that people are
sliding them into their piggy
banks in the forlorn hope that
they will grow into dollars.
AS the piggy bank habit grows,
SO does demand for small coins
for sales taxes, parking meters,
more vending machines and odd
cent price increases.
What to do about it? This
month the old mint out in Den
yer is hard at work producing
nothing but pennies-about 50,-
900 Of them day to ease the
shortage. But $4,000 a day are
not enugh.
All of which causes US to point
out that Uncle Sam should open
up his own piggy bank. Stored
in the vault of the Denver Mint
are $25 million silver dollars and
better than SIS billions in gold.
Chances are that Uncle High
Hat could use his piggy bank
holdings to buy some more cop
per, if any is available, to strike
more pennies, thus leaving one
of the few remaining American
institutions intact.

With bowed heads, but blooming
bravely through the white blanket,

breakfast-all of that on Saturday,
