Tipping Abroad Is Hit-or-Miss Worry
Unless You Know Some Rules

So keen Is the interest o1
Americans in doing the right
thing in tipping Europeans that
practically every book of guild
ance for modern "innocents
abroad" devotes from a para
graph to a page to the subject.
Like etiquette, the niceties OF
Showering down are not fixed by
such a mathematical formula q
pluS-2-equalS-4. AS in etiquette,
too, some travellers have a par
ticular gift or training in doing
the right thing. Others are i'll at
ease, are all thumbs in a mo-
ment that could be a gracious
gesture and come out of tipping
incident with the feeling that nc
one is satisfied, not even them
selves.
AS people do best what they
like to do, or have no objections
to doing, one of the first prin-
ciples of tipping abroad is a SYM
pathetic understanding of the
reasons for it. Another requisite
is a working familiarity with the
currency and it's value. With
that basis. practical experience
with a few broad rules can take
some mental hazards out of tip
ping.
But so broad are the rules and
so diverse are the circumstances
that whenever groups of travel
ing Americans get together
away from their native shores
the question of what to tip fol-
services invariably comes up. The
problem rises particularly or

variables of person, place anc

If tipping has become al
obligation (Which no travele.
would deny), it is due to the fac
that the ability of the waiter
and other tippees to make end
meet depends on the generoSit.
of the patrons they serve. The.
have no take-home pay, as w
know it in America, and an un

in the mental adjustment to ;
string of tips. And they Cal
run into quite an amount if on

Tipping is a tightrope. Over

for those who come after you.
On the other hand, under

often results in bad service" )"
Practically all qualified advice
on tipping takes note of the fact
that most European hotels have
evolved a custom of adding be-
tween 10 and 20 per cent Of
the bill, to be distributed among
the employees as a substitute for
individual tips. But that doesn't
end the problem of what to tip
and when. Special services-de-

As Hunting Starts
Commissioner Reminds Sportsmen OF
200 Firearms Accidental Deaths
AS Hunting Starts

With hunters preparing for
opening Of the general season.
this week. and likely to be in
wood and fields in record num-
bers, DR.. Mack / Sllanholtz. State
Health Commissioner. issued a
warning today to these sports
men
In the United States about Is
million hunters take to the woods
each fall. Most of them return
safely. but each year many are
killed by their own or their
companions guns. Almost every
hunting death could be prevented
if few health and safety precau-
tons were taken" Dr. Shanholtz
said
Each year, firearm accidents
take about 1900 lives. This death
toll reaches its peak during the
hunting season. Nearly 80 per cent
Of tirearm fatalities are among
males. teen-age boys freqenetly
being The victims.
Chief Causes
Activities most responsible for
hunting accidents are: walking
INTO line of fire: the discharge Of
guns when hunters carrying load
ed weapons tripped or stumbl-
ed OF handled them carelessly
while climbing over or under a
Tense: loading and unloading Wea-
pOnS. and being mistaken for

the guns of their own companions
Than by the weapons of other
hunting parties.
Treat your gun with respect.
Dr.. Shanholtz advised. Make GER

carefully place your gun on the
ground at the other side. then
climb over" he continued
Pick Partners
According to DR.. Shanholtz,
much of your safety will depend
on your hunting partner, SO it is
important to choose a partner
who is careful about his hunting
habits.
Some of the things you do at
home before starting on hunt
ting trip have great deal to do
with your safety. If you are 40
years of age. or older, it's wise
to have physical examination by
your family doctor before start
ing on hunting trip. Find out
how much exertion you can take
because hunting requirest a lot of
physical activity. If you are not
accustomed to it. the strain may
be harmful. Heart trouble some
times strikes older men when
many hours tramping through the
woods DIR. Shanholtz concluded

Compensation Payments Are Allowed
Retroactively For Korean Veterans

Veterans Administration eX-
planned to Korean veterans that
compensation payments for SER
vice-connected disabilities may be
allowed retoactively to one Of
three different dates.
The dates are determined by
three different sets OF circum-
stances, one Of which is the time
the application for compensation
is filed
VA listed the three dates as
follows.
If the veteran files his applica-
ton within a year from the date
of separation from active service
and VA finds that his service
connected disability was severe
enough at separation to be
compensate, compensation pay
ments may be made retroactive
to the day following the date Of
separation.
II the veteran files his applica-
ticn within a year from the date
Of separation, but his disability
was not severe enough at separa-
ton to be compensate. compen-
sation payments may be made
retroactive only to teh date the
evidence shows the disability be-
came severe enough to rate com
pensation.
If the veteran files his applica-
ton later than one year after
separation, compensation pay
mentS may be made retroactive
TO the date Of filing
VA said this does not indicate
there is time limit for filing
The agency said veterans may
apply for disability compensation
at any time during their lives.
Compensation may be paid
monthly to veterans who have
disabilities WHICH are judged to
have been incurred in or agra
waited by service in the armed
forces either during peacetime
or wartime service. The peace
time is 80 per cent of the war
time rate unless the disability re-
suited from extra hazardous
service, in which case the war
time rate may apply.

Ayes. 1t may be possible for

10 soldier passengers and two
crew members to their deaths
just below the crest Of a tim

The 81 burned bodies were
found yesterday in small area
around the wreckage of the
Regina Airlines DC-3. The
plane had plunged into tall
timber about Is miles northeast
of Centralia only Is or 80 miles
short of its destination at Nc
Chord Air Force Base.
It struck near the 2,700-foot
level. at an angle that led some
airmen to believe that it crashed
with its nose downward. 1t had
not reported any trouble.
The trees had Sheared off the
wings. All that was intact was
the tail fin and a rear portion of
the fuselage.
The 10 soldiers were flying

The plane was chartered by the
Army from the Miami (Fla.) air
firm. Its last radio report had

India Legislators Hit
Remarks by Dulles
In Speech 10 Legion
BY the Associated Press

NEW DELHI, India, Sept. s.
United States Secretary of State
Dulles reference to India in his
American Legion speech brought
a generally critical reaction
from Indian parliamentary cir
cles today.
Mr.. Dulles said it was India S
privilege not to join the United
Nations forces fighting in Ko-
rea, but that privilege had to
be paid for. "One price," he said,
was profound distrust on the
part of the Republic of Korea.
:. Their attitude cannot pru-
IDENTIFY be ignored. Our action
Opposing Indian participation
in the political conference) in
volved no reflection upon India. ."
Members of Prime Minister
Nehru's Congress Party, who re-
fused to be named, said Mr..
Dulles post mortem examina-
ton could better have been
avoided" India never had vol
unteered for the political con-
ference, they asserted, and I'VE
do not want to be told why Amer
lea organized opposition.
Seen as Insult on Injury.
They termed Mr.. Dulles state
ment about the price India had
to pay adding insult to injury. !"
They described Mrs. Franklin
D. Roosevelt's condemnation of
the American vote in the U. N.
as "the voice of real America"
The Congress Party sources
argued Mr.. Dulles speech was
more to "pacify estranged opin-
ion within the United States
itself, and in the United Kingdom
and the other democracies that
voted for India and also alb
stained from voting, rather than
being intended for Indian con-
sumption"
Frank Anthony, leader in
Parliament of the Anglo Indian
and domiciled European commu-
nifty, said: American policy is
showing increasing signs of lack
of craftsmanship. If America
pursues her present policy any
longer she will find herself iso-
lated, not only from India, but
from all the Western democra-
cieS, with the dubious compensa-
ton of Syngman Rhee as sole
ally"
Same Old Tale Again."
Acharya J. B. Kripalani, leader
OF the Praja Socialist Party, said
''It is the same old tale again.
His wife, Mrs. Sucheta Kripa-
lani, former leader of the party
in Parliament, said India should
refuse to put Mrs. Vijaya LAX
shmi Pandit up as candidate
for the presidency of the U. N.
General Assembly. The United
States has announced it's support
of Mrs. Pandit.
The rightwing Hindu Maha-
sabha Party leader in Parlia-
ment, N. c. Chatterjee, predicted
that without India the political
conference would become an
other Panmunjom.
