Being very anxious to be re-
lieved of the rice that was fast be-
coming a danger to my hitherto
loving disposition, I blushingly
suggested to my husband that we
engage a hotel room before we set
out on any of those expeditions.
my thoughtful, loving husband
cheerfully informed me that he
had already attended to that chore
and suggested that we go to a
nearby restaurant for our dinner
instead. Too modest to tell him of
my predicament, dropped the SUBJ
ject.
with the increasing heat and
the rice that due to my sweating,
was swelling under my corset, my
discomfort increased after dinner
and my anxiety to shed my clothes
became greater.
"In this predicament, I again
timidly suggested to my husband
that we go to our room. With a
peculiar, searching look in his eyes
my darling husband answered that
the evening was young yet, and he
added that we had long night
ahead to enjoy ourselves in our
room.
Realizing that my husband mis-
interpreted my motive for my re-
quest, I blushed furiously and de-
cided not to approach that SUBJ
ject again, no matter how much
1 should suffer from the wedding
rice.
For the next few hours my hus-
band took me hither and yon, on
a round of what would have been
indescribable pleasures had I not
had that swelling rice under my
tight corset.
ITO my great relief and joy,
my young, handsome, and loving
husband finally decided that it was
time for us to enjoy each others
company in the seclusion of our
hotel room.
Calling taxi, he ordered the
driver to take us to one of the
best hotels in the city. On the
journey to the hotel, was sitting
close to my darling husband,
trembling with anticipation over
the joy that was in store for me on
entering that room.
II can assure you that never be-
fore had l been so anxious to have
a bath, and if live to be a humid
red years old, will never again BE
as anxious to retire as I was on
that unforgettable night"

Constantine Brown:
Vishinsky Put End to Truce Hope
Protroced Negotiations Nothing but Communist Trick
To Improve Their Positions on the Korea Front

Andrei Vishinsky's terms for
ending of the war in Korea
on the basis of withdrawal of
United Nations forces to the
38th Parallel within 10 days and
evacuation of foreign troops
within three months appears to
have put an end to hopes for
a cease-f1re.
1t seems all too evident now
that the protracted truce nego-
tiations have been nothing but
a Communist trick to permit
their forces to improve their
positions and also to become
better acquainted with the new
type of artillery. tanks and
other modern weapons Moscow
has been rushing to Manchuria
and North Korea since last
June. Bitter fighting may be ex-
pected during the coming winter
months.
Gen. Matthew Ridgway, the
supreme commander in the Far
East. and Gen. James Van Fleet
have suspected these enemy in
tentions from the very begin
ming. They have faithfully fol-
lowed orders from Washington
by playing fair with the Com
munists and giving them the
benefit of the doubt even when It
was apparent that they were
up to their customary tricks. Our
side has utilized the summer
lull to increase its stock of
weapons and ammunition and
also to give a much-needed rest
to the fighting forces. The Oc-
tober offensive operations were
limited in scope. They were in
tended principally to forestall
a probable Red offensive by oc-
cupying a number of vital de-
fensive strategic positions.
But the lull has helped the
enemy more than it has helped
us. It has allowed him to ill
the CHASTITY gaps inflicted by the
Allies on his troops. Large REIN
forcements have been brought

Lowell MeHett:

Not in many a day have so
many questions been raised by
a newspaper yarn as are raised
by Arthur Krock's story in the
New York Times purporting to
tell what passed between Presi-
dent Truman and Gen. Elsen-
hover during their private lunch
here on Monday. Or to state it
more fairly to all parties con-
cerned, what Mr.. Krock says an
unidentified informant, "a per-
son whom he believes to be
thoroughly reliable and in
formed" told him had passed
between the President and gen.
eral. What passed, according 70
the story. was an offer by the
President to support the gen.
eral as a presidential candidate
next year and an implied re-
lection of the offer by the gen.
eral on the ground of disagree
ment with the administration
on labor and other domestic
policies. The President says
fatty that there is not a word
of truth in the tale. The gen.
erals aides say it is wholly fic-
tional. So, some of the ques-
tions:
/. Did such an exchange take
place?
2. If so, since at first blush
1t suggests a humiliating expert
ence for the President, would he
be the one to reveal it? Or. on
second blush, since it could also
suggest an almost unexampled

Hears Talk
IOn Princess

Hope that Princess Elizabeth
will reign during lifetime OF
world peace. was voiced yesterday
lby the wife of the Minister of
Commercial Affairs of the British
Embassy.
Mrs. Charles Empson. guest
speaker at a luncheon meeting of
the George Washington Univer-
Isity Faculty Club. told members:
1--WE are all hoping King George
will have a long reign so that
Princess Elizabeth will not have
Ito assume the throne while she is
$50 young"
Mrs. Empson pointed out that a
philosophy enabling person to
gain by experience outside the
Ischoolroom as well as inside is es-
Ipecially important to a princess.
Mother Taught Her to Read.
She spoke of Princess Elizabeth
as mot a self-centered child" and
said the youngster welcomed the
advent of Princess Margaret Rose
into her life when she was 4 years
tof age.
Mrs. Empson told members how
the future Queen was taught to
read by her mother before she had
her first formal teacher at the
age of 6 and then added the
teacher found her a child with
great powers Of concentration and
quickness.
When she was very young, the
story goes, the Princess got her
first lesson in regal humility.
"She went to the cinema with
her grandmother. Queen Mary
Mrs. Empson related, land after
is was over when the little girl
saw the crowd that collected to
see her she turned to her grand
mother with glittering eyes and
said: How pleased they will be
| to see met"
THE Queen" said Mrs. Empson
"had her removed Immediately by
a back door and sent her home in
a taxicab."
Mrs. Empson said the young girl
met a cross section of the British
people during. her official girl.
hood activities and recalled that
during World War. II she worked
as motor mechanic with the
ATS.
Usually Has Her Way.
| The King objected, but the
pretty Princess was adamant anc
determined to become a greasy.
fingered mechanic. She became
skilled driver for that branch
of the service.
! Princess Elizabeth, as cabinet
officers learned, usually has he1
own way. With a well-turneo
quip she can take the starch out
OF even the stuffiest Tory or bring
laughter to the lips of Labor
Party leaders, as she did when as
a child she told then Prime
Minister Ramsay Macdonald:

into Korea and repeatedly close
to the Yalu River which still re-
mains a sanctuary which the
American Air Force has not
been allowed to molest. But the
far more important fact is that
during the four months of
peace parleys" the Reds have
received from the U. S. S. r. a
strong air force estimated at be-
tween 1900 and 1900 planes Of
the most advanced type, oper-
ated, according to the American
air intelligence, either by Rus
slams or other "CaucaSians."
Until we accepted the phony
cease fire talks the United Ma
tions had an unquestioned air
supremacy in Korea. In the last
three weeks Red planes have ap-.
peared in such number that our
supremacy is now being chal-
lenged and there is actual dam
ger that it may soon pass to
the enemy.
Gen. Hoyt Vandenberg's ''rou-
tine inspection" trip to Japan
and Korea is said to be con-
nected with this vital problem.
In view of our production slow
ness it is possible that Vanden-
berg will suggest the sending of
larger number of air groups to
the Far East. This will have to
be done, for the time being. at
the expense of our commitments
to increase American air power
in Europe.
The top command in the Far
East is confident that 1t can
stand the brunt of another all
out Red offensive provided that
it is not more effectively con-
ceived than in the past. The
morale of the Allied forces is
high. The fact that large
number of actual combat expert
enced troops are being rotated
and replaced by men who have
not yet been in action is not
considered particularly serious.

More Questions Than Answers
Story of What May or May Not Have Passed Between
President and Gen. Ike Opens Up Every Variety

strengthened or weakened in his
dealings with European govern
ments? Strengthened by new
proof of the Presidents conf
dence in him or weakened by the
fear that. by spurning the al
legged offer. he may have de-
stroyed that confidence?
Z. Are the prospects for the
successful completion of the
generals mission so good that
it is safe to take a chance on
dumping the apple cart, or are
they so grim that nothing can
make them any worse?
8. Would the President risk
upsetting his Democratic or
ganization without knowing the
general was prepared to play
ball with him and give the party
a reasonably sure winner?
8. What would the general
gain by causing to be revived
in this fashion the issue Of
whether he is really a Demo-
crat at heart or a true-blue
Republican?
Those are a few of the ques-
tions. You may think of others.
including this one: Why would
the reliable and presumably
patriotic informant, having
nothing to lose, since nobody
would be likely ever to tell him
anything again. not allow his
own identity to be exposed?
Whoops! That assumes he
wasn't supposed to tell, and
brings us back to where we
started, still full of questions.
