Advice To Blondes
Bv VIVIAN BROWN


AP Newsfeatures Beauty Editor
Blondes get blonder in the sum-
mer. And in the summer it looks
good. But come chilly Autumn and
the same blonde tresses having been
exposed to the suns rays, are like
ly to become streaky, brittle and
unmanageable.
A girl who wouldn't think of visit
ing a beach in midday without sun
tan lotion to protect her skin, thinks
nothing Of exposing her luscious
locks to the suns rays.
Blondes who are proud of their
light tresses usually can't be sold
on head covering, no matter how
lovely. So oil treatments are the
only solution. These are simple to
do and are well worth the effort
Here's how:
Before your regular shampoo
brush your hair thoroughly. Part
the hair. Take a small cotton ball
and dip it in baby oil or another
favOrite oil. Section the hair in
inch strips all over the head, ap-
plying baby oil as you go along.
Use a fresh cotton ball as one be-
comes sOiled.
When the entire scalp has been
oiled, spread thumbs and fingers
of both hands and place them firm
ly against the scalp. Use fingertips
to rotate the scalp slowly until it
loses it tight feeling. Move the
hands to a different portion of the
head and continue this massage un-
til the, scalp tingles and grows
warm.
If this treatment is done in the
cool of the evening, you may want
to wiring a towel out of hot water
and wrap it round the oiled hair
for a few minues. If the evening
is hot, you'll probably want to wash
the oil right out along with your
regular sOaping.
Two to three sOapings and three
clear water rinses will leave your
hair good and clean. The juice OF
freshly squeezed lemon may be
added to the rinse water.
Brushing is another important
summer hair-care step. It is par.
ticularly stimulating when done
with two brushes, one in either
hand, with head hanging down, W,
are told. This really stimulates thu
scalp, impartinga healthy glow t.
your tresses, according to the hail
experts.
If frequent swimming pool dip
or salt water sWims are part O
your summer playtime schedule
make a beeline for the summe
shower. Clear water should rims,
away the chlorine used in pool
and remove ocean salt.
Pin-curls put up with COLOGNE
after your shOwer-shampoO will
help dry the hair in a iiffy an,
leave it fragrant. A cooling astrin
gent whisked around the browlin
to remove powder traces is the fl
nal fillip in a summer makeup.

Herriot and Auriol

Luniel Loses Ground
By the Associoted Press

VERSAILLES, France. Dec. o.
The badly split French Parlia-
ment put off until tomorrow its
attempts to elect a new President
of the republic. Edouard Her
riot and Vincent Auriol, two tired
old men who insist they don't
want the job, led the field of
compromise candidates.
Political leaders held a series
of fruitless conferences this
morning in attempt to break a
six-day deadlock. When the
electoral congress met this after
noon to take the 11th ballot
since last Thursday. there had
been no progress in reaching
agreement on a candidate who
could get the necessary majority
vote.
The next session was put of
until 10 am. a am. EST to-
morrow in the hope that during
this afternoon and tonight some
way could be found to avoid
further public embarrassment
over failure to pick a President
Mr.. Herriot and Mr.. Auriol
appeared to be the only likely
figures considered above party
squabbles. Mr.. Auriol winds up
his present seven-year term as
President on January II.
Tnterparty Talks Called.
The interparty conferences
were called by Andre LIE Trouuer
Socialist presiding officer of the
electoral congress.
Intervening last night when.
on the 10th ballot, no candidate
still could poll a majority, Mr..
LIE Troquer declared "prolonga-
tion of the present situation
would endanger the functioning
Of democratic institutions"
Though the French presidency
is largely a ceremonial Office, po-
litical leaders agreed that the
bitter deadlock was posing an
ever-graver danger to French
democracy by undermining the
deep political and class divisions
within the nation. In all pre-
viouS presidential elections no
more than two ballots have been
required.
Laniel Loses Ground.
Premier Joseph Laniel, who
has led the poll throughout most

mate.

Harry S. Truman, in an inter-

saying that personal liberties in
the United States today may be
threatened, but they're not in
i danger"
U. S. Television News today
released the transcript of an in
terview with the former Presi-
dent on a Kansas City, Mo-,
street corner by a rowing tele-
vision reporter, Clete Roberts.
The reporter said Mr.. Truman
was one of those interviewed for
the filmed program, "Street Cor
ner. U. S. A."
The former President was
asked: do you believe that your
personal liberties, as guaranteed
by the Constitution. are threat
ened today?" He was quoted as
answering:
"They may be threatened, but
they're not in danger"
Cites Events in History.
Asked for the basis of his
| thinking on this point. he re-
piled:
"Well. it's happened before.
We go through these periods of
hysteria, have done it time and
again. In the 1790's we had
the Jacobin difficulty and they
passed the alien and sedition
laws. In about four years. they
had to be repealed because they
were actually in controversy
with the Bill Of Rights and the
Constitution of the United
States.
"Then along in the sos (1830S)
we had an anti-MaSonic propo-
sition in which the MaSons were
accused of everything under the
sun. a lot of lodges were closed
and a lot of people were perSe-
cuted on account of they were
members of the Masonic organi-
zation.
"Ten years after that the
'know-nothingS' and their prin-
cipal yen was against the Cath
olic Church. They tarred and
feathered priests, burned down
Catholic churches and did a lot
of things like that.
"The next go-'round was the
Ku Klux after the Civil War and
that was revived in 1922 to 1928
and AL Smith was a victim of
that anti-Catholic. anti Jew,
anti-Negro proposition.
Now we have a Communist
scare. And if you know anybody
that knows Communist, I wish
you'd put him in touch with me,
because I'd like to see what one
looks like. I don't think that the
country is in any danger from
an interior Communist uprising.
Our difficulties are beyond
the Iron Curtain, and it's been
the policy to prevent the people
on the other side of the Iron
Curtain from nl:ttinp the free

the most important thing with
which we are faced. If we can
do that, then We'll have Leace

Post Office Will Tesl
Private Production
OF Postage Stamps
Photoerovure Process
May Replace Engraving;
Plate Printers Concerned
BY Froncis P. Douglas

Part of the production of post
age stamps, now turned out en-
tirely at the Bureau of Engrav-
ing and Printing, may be shifted
to private printing plants.
Postmaster General Summer
field announced today the Post
Office will explore the produc-
ton of stamps by a photogra-
vure method instead of by en-
craving. He said sucn stamps
could be more attractive and
colorful.
The Post Office said the Bu-
1eau would have sample stamp
produced by the photoengraving
process to provide test against
a stamp of similar design pro-
duced by hand engraving. This
sample stamp wouldsbe produced
at a commercial plant.
There was a report that the
Post Office planned production
of photogravure stamps at a
plant at Scranton, Pa. The
plant is one of five which turns
out the tuberculosis Society's
Christmas seals. The Post Offlce
spokesman said he didn't know
about the report.
Private Industry Issue.
Another question was whether
shifting of stamp production
from the bureau here to private
ly owned plants here or else
where was part of. the Eisen-
hover administrations program
of getting the Government out
of competition with private in
dustry. The answer was, mot
necessarily"
The Washington Plate Print
erS' Union, members of which
produce the engraved steel
plates for printing of stamps,
said it is "very much concerned
about the announcement that
this work will be farmed out to
be printed by a commercial
printing process"
The union is Local No. 2 of
the International Plate Printers.
Die Stampers and Engravers
Union. Frank j. Coleman, the
international unions legislative
representative, warned of the
danger of counterfeiting of non-
engraved stamps.
Fears COunterfeiting.
Stamps issued by the United
States Government, if printed
by a commercial process, cannot
be detected from counterfeit
stamps produced by the same
commercial process" he said.
He cited the experience of
other countries where stamps,
not produced from hand-en-
graved plates were counterfeited.
The Post Office said it planned
to offer no lucrative field for
counterfeiters. It plans to start
the new method with inexpen-
Sive stamps-ones. twos and
threeS.
The Post Office cited the
Treasury's announcement recent
ly that bonds would be printed
by the photoengraving methods
rather than from hand engraved
plates. The Plate Printers
Union fears this step and the
shift in the stamp production
method will mean employment
of fewer Of its members.
