TT IS inevitable that Americans should
l. like Queen Juliana Of The Neither
lands. She likes us and in some ways
is like us.
The people Of the United States, in
or out Of an election year, point with
pride to their own reputed sense Of hu-
NOR, distaste for stuffy formality, devo-
ton to democracy and mixture Of home
spun. hard work and common sense.
That almost echoes what has been
said SO often OF Queen Juliana. In any
event, such familiarity strengthens
friendship between guest and host.
The Juliana Louise Emma Marie VIII
helmina, bestowed at birth April 80,
1909, did not overwhelm her. A royal
history which has not recorded q king
since 1890 or male heir since 1884
proved that woman's place in Holland
could be on the throne as well as in the
home.
Regal as she can be on occasion, she
won renown for putting people at ease
even before she abolished the curtSey
and removed lackeys who once stood be-
hind palace dining room chairs. She
long ago served notice that the world
was not to think of her as a princess or
queen hidden deep behind castle walls.
When she went to Canada in 1910 she
had this to say of her children:
You will see them among you quite
often, for we do not like to lock our
selves up. It is just not in our nature.
Above all things the children smile quite
easily Please give them your smile and
they will be happy"
Queen since her mother abdicated in
1948, she regards her responsibilities and
duties with fitting seriousness. But she
has given ample evidence that she does
not take herself too seriously. So far
as special treatment is concerned, she
once remarked that she "is nobody spe-
cial." She nevertheless is unusual in
her special talents and attainments. AS
a girl she learned five languages. took
violin lessons, studied at the University
of Leiden, and showed special aptitude
in such diverse fields as literature, in
ternational law, ethnology and history.
and became proficient in several sports.

Our ChiId-Cure Problem

am inclosing my check for $40 which
would like you to turn over to Miss
Winifred Thompson Of the Industrial
Home annex I think it would be an
excellent idea If The Star would raise q
fund to assist Miss Thompson in the
work she is doing and which was de-
scribed in The Sunday Star of March %.
I have written letter to my Congress-
man, Representative Beall, requesting
that he endeavor to do something to
obtain approval of an appropriation for
the Laurel project.
If you do raise fund for this purpose
and wish to list my contribution. please
credit it to "R. G."
r. G.
Editors note: The Star is not raising
q fund to assist the children'S institutions
because it believes improvement Of these
institutions is a governmental respon-
Sibility. Those who want to nelp the
children should follow r. G.'s example
in writing to his representative in
Congress. They should also make 1t
known to members Of the Senate and
House Appropriations Committees that
they would like to see an item of $50, 900
for furthering plans for the Children's
Center at Laurel, Md, included in the
pending District budget. Senator Lister
Hill of Alabama is chairman Of the
Senate Appropriations subcommittee in
charge of the District budget and Rep
reSentative Joe B. Bates Of Kentucky
is chairman Of the House Appropriations
subcommittee. r. G.'S check-with his
permission-was spent by The Star to
buy outdoor play equipment for small
children at the Industrial Home School
annex.)
Francis Xavier, wearied with an ex-
hauSting days work, withdrew to his
tent and gave directions to his attendant
that he must not be disturbed. A few
moments later. however, he appeared
and said: "But il child comes call me-"
In the splendid stand taken by The
Star on the unjust treatment meted out
to the helpless wards Of our city and
in the inspiring letters that have en-
larged on this base betrayal of plain
duty and responsibility, wonder if
we have not heard the call of a child
that rests heavily on our conscienceS?
The Star has revealed situation that
must arouse indignation in the heart
of every lover Of children and that
should mean all Of us. Children and
the dependent ones who face the SUM-
set of life should be the first consid-
Grafton Of a State. Others lying be-
tween can more or less fend for them
selves. One of the chief objects Of
Government is the care Of its citizens.
What worthier cause than those who
are to be the States future citizens?
How true it is:
"Who gives a child treat
Makes joy-bells in heaven ring.
But he who gives child home
Builds palaces in kingdom come"
A child has knocked at the door OF
our hearts. It might have been your
child or mine. No matter. We know
it is Gods child, and it should be
the object of our love as it is Of His,
because "Of such is the kingdom Of

Senator Taft Does Better

The primaries in Wisconsin and Nebraska
have improved Senator Taft's position in the
fight for the Republican presidential nomination
His Wisconsin showing can hardly be called
impressive. He had the vigorous support of the
Republican State organization and he cam
paigned intensively. Still, although winning "a
Of the 80 delegates, he was able to poll only
little better than AZ per cent of the popular
vote. Governor Warren, who ran second and
Harold Stassen-both of whom were identified
by their hackers as sympathetic to General
EiSenhower-had combined majority of So
per cent
The net effect is to inject new life into the
sagging Taft candidacy. Had he been beaten
by either of his Wisconsin opponents, Senator
Taft would have been through. Now he has a
valid ground for staying in the race-as he has
stated he intends to do
In Nebraska it looks as though Senator Taft
may do better than in Wisconsin, With little
less than half the vote counted, he was running
well ahead of General Eisenhower in a see
saw contest based on write-in votes. Mr.. Stassen,
the only national figure whose name appeared
on the Republican ballot, was trailing in third
place. This is the first time that Senator Taft
has run ahead Of General Eisenhower in direct
test Of popularity, and if he holds his lead it
will be victory Of some Importance.
Senator Kefauver is the other beneficiary
of these primaries. His victory in Wisconsin
was overwhelming. And in Nebraska he was
running comfortably ahead of Senator Kerr, who
had the backing OF the Democratic organization.
There has been a disinclination among Demo-
cratic politicians to take the Kefauver candidacy
very seriously. But he is far out in front at this
time, and~unless primaries really are eyewash
1t is going to be hard to push him aside when
the Democratic convention meets

Visitors From The Netherlands

Queen Juliana and her husband, Prince
Bernhard, are no strangers in Washington They
have been here on other occasions, and many
local residents regard them as "old friends It
happens also that they represent people whose
association with this part Of North America
traces back to the settlement of Jamestown in
1907. The Dutch have been good neighbors of
the United States since the founding of our
Nation. Again and again, in diplomacy and
war, as well as in industry and commerce,
Hollanders and Americans have been allies. The
purpose of Juliana's present visit to our Capital
Is to strengthen the ties which currently bind
us to her country and other North Atlantic
nations.
Twelfth of the Orange-Nassau line to occupy
the throne of the Netherlands the Queen speaks
for the tradition Of orderly and liberal govern
ment established by her ancestor, William the
Silent, in 1879. Now AZ years of age, she has
worn the crown only since 1948, but she was
her mothers deputy long prior to that date, in
fact if not in name. Her training for her royal
duties began in infancy, and she had the guild
ance not only of Queen Wilhelmina but likewise
that of excellent professional teachers at The
Hague and Leyden. Among her talents is a
noteworthy penchant for languages. She uses
German, Spanish and French as well as English
with ease Her reading covers the world field.
She has comprehensive grounding in history
and economics.
But Julianas power comes from the heart
rather more particularly than from the head
She is a friendly person. When she lived in
Canada during World War II, she sent her
daughters to regular school and stipulated
that they should be treated like the other chill
dren. Her husband shares her democratic,
liberal attitude. Both are welcome to Washing
ton. Their visit is official, but it also is an
opportunity for a new meeting of what the
Dutch would call in their own tongue "oude
Vrienden."

At the university she insisted on being
treated like other students. That ex-
perience, in addition to the memory Of
, earlier years as an only child with gov
ernesses, may have caused her to send
her own daugl tiers to school with other
children. The girls went to progress

royal chroniclers disclose. none Of the

Lippe- e-BieSterfeld was announced in Sep
tember, 1886, a few months after they
met at the Olympic winter games in
Germany. The engagement came, as q
complete surprise to the people Of Hol-
land.
The wedding on January z, 1887, was
delight for almost every one except
Hitler. Prince Bernhard, q German
whose father had run-in with Kaiser
Wilhelm. refused to allow the wedding
to be turned into a Nazi feast by the
playing of the Horst Vessel" song. Any
doubts that his adopted country may
have had about Prince Bernhard-whoSe
correct title now is The Prince of The
Netherlands-were dispelled by his serv-
ice to Holland during World War II.
Four daughters were born to the royal
couple, Princess Beatrix in January,
1898; Princess Irene in August. 1889;
Princess Margriet in January, 1943, and
Princess Marijke in February. 1947.
In country where democratic forms
of government are older than the mon
archy, Queen Juliana does not exercise
the power of strong "kingship." Yet
in that constitutional system much de-
pends on the personality of the ruling
monarch. And. by all reports. Queen
Juliana has distinct personality.
Queen Juliana has shelved many Of
the old trappings of monarchy but has
preserved the motto of the House of
Orange-Nassau to which she belongs.
That motto is II Shall Maintain"
She has indicated she intends to
maintain more than a monarchy. She
has literally made herself part Of the
everyday life Of her people to greater
extent than would have been possible
in kingdoms Of bygone days, or than
is possible even today in some other
countries.
AS one of the few queens wearing q
crown in her own right anywhere in
the uneasy world she maintains guid-
ing purpose to bring up our children
to be free people with spiritual foun-
dation, q strong sense of responsibility
for their fellows. with respect for all that
lives and grows, and for the innermost
convictions Of Others"
