There are great many armed rob-
berries in the District. A study of the
news indicates many of them are liquor
stores, pawnShopS and places of bust
ness where large amounts of money
are accessible. If these businesses had
guns and owners capable of shooting
them, the crooks would think twice.
At present citizen cannot carry a gun
in the District without a police quiz.
Ownership or possession of gun should
not be crime-it's what you do with
it that matters.

permitted to purchase guns to be kept
in their shops, but may not carry them

President as q Prop
The presidency is probably the
worlds toughest job. Hard decisions
confront the incumbent daily. Vast
responsibilities press him constantly,
So let's direct some public resentment
against those promoters, publicity rack
eteers and ax-grinders who demand the
right to use our President as publicity
girnmick and break in upon his time to
pose him with the apple queen, the
prune princess, the essay contest win
ner, Miss Typical Teacher Of 1853, the
champion hog raiser or rodeo rider, etc.
President Eisenhower is a warm
hearted, kindly and patient person. He
would never want to be churlish, GER
tainly never "high hat" Admittedly,
holders of public Office have to surren-
der some Of their privacy and cater to
their supporters, the voters.
But in a time when communism and
Korea and a hundred other terrible
problems burden our President, think
that common-sense Americans would
heartily applaud firm mo" by Gen.
Eisenhower to any and all of the boost
ers and public relations counsellorS"
who would steal his time and wear
down his nerves to promote their organ
ization, or movement, or campaign to
eat more avocados, or what have you.
Maybe Mr.. Nixon, good guy and
highly photogenic, would agree to be
the goat. But the best solution, think,
would be to make general rule, with
no exceptions, that says in effect, 1.-THE
presidency shall not be used as pub
licity gimmick. If you want to adver-
tise, pay the press or the radio or the

tential demand for space was
overwhelmingly above what ships
and planes could hope to carry;
at least, it was shaping up that
way.
Now, as the old-time movies
used to say, comes the dawn. AS
in other years, many space can
cellations have come in; dupli-
cate and triplicate reservations
have been weeded out. But it
would seem that everybody is
surprised that coronation sail
ings would suffer a drop that
leaves berths empty. 1t turns
out that ship space for the coro-
nation is available not only in
the top classes but also in the
early-se1lout tourist class.
Try Again Tomorrow
All this is by way Of saying
that those Americans genuinely
interested in seeing the public
part of the coronation show. and

places an hour or so away, need

trations. Try again-tomorrow
if possible.
And others who have had their
dream of Europe in 1853 dashed
by apparent insurmountable odds
against getting space in the peak
season might also get results by
applying again. Those who allow
themselves some flexibility in
dates and price will have the
best chances.
AS to coronation sailings, those
who at this late date resolve to
go might have saved themselves
some money. Travel agencies here
are being informed that seats in
stands along the procession route
are available now at slightly
under $50. Sales have previously
averaged about $100. And some
Washington travellers - whose
names will never be known un-
less they tell the story on them
selves-have put out $500 for a
single seat.

tires checked and the all
important question Of where to
spend those precious two weeks
is debated.
Quite a chunk of the Nations
vacationers will spend at least
a part of it touring the beautiful
Shenandoah Valley of Virginia.
A broad, emerald green valley in
the Blue Ridge and Allegheny
Mountains, paralleling scenic
Skyline drive, it has been de-
veloped with vision and feeling
by it's inhabitants as one of
Americas foremost recreational
areas.
Splendid Attractions
Perhaps one of the loveliest
sights anywhere is historic Win

of the valley, during apple blos-
som time. In April the area sur
rounding this friendly city is
adrift with the pink blossoms of
6 million commercial apple trees,

MIAMI BEACH, Fla. The
strengthening spring season
at Miami Beach is more pro-
nounced than ever this year as
winter vacationers, reluctant to
leave the mild climate and
pleasant outdoors, are prolong-
ing their stays in the sun.
Reduced hotel and apartment
rates, now nearing the summer
lows that start May l. add an
economic incentive that many
are taking advantage of. It is
Miami Beach's boast that few
places in the world can even
come close to matching the lux
urious accommodations at late
spring and summer prices.
Miles of smooth, sandy beaches
some within the grounds OF
ocean-front hotels, others re-
served in municipal parks, invite
daily relaxation beneath the
palms. Cabana colonies, with
their atmosphere of informal
comfort, lure visitors for day.
long lounging.
Vacationers who like to fish
find this season one of the best
of the whole year. Tarpon are
here now on their annual spring
migration, and night the favor

going after them.
Favorites such as the sailfish
marlin, bonefish, permit, snook
and channel bass remain in Mi
ami Beach waters the year
round. as do some trapon. Scores
of deep-Sea- cabin cruisers are
available for charter into the
Gulf Stream, while smaller craft
usually are used for bay fishing.
Some sport, chiefly with pan fish,
is to be had from bridges and
causeways.
Hundreds of hotels, apartment
buildings, restaurants and shops
provide a wide selection for the
visitor. Many vacationers drive
their own automobiles here while
others rent cars after arrival.

Spring Offers
Superb Views
OF New York
Lofty OverIooks
Provides Vistos

ALBANY, N. Y.-Spring is an
unusually good season for the
New York tourist who likes his
landscape views high, wide and
handsome.
Balmy weather brings out the
urge to take to the open road
and, although the weather is mild
and sunny in early April, the
blooming season is not yet suf-
ficiently advanced to provide the
motorist in these latitudes with
much in the way of bloom or
greenery.
Yet there are, at this time,
many interesting goals for the
winter-weary motorist. For this
is an excellent season to visit
the States high places for views
which delight the eye with hori-
Zon-filling spaciousneSs. Many a
panorama which is now spread
out in it's full magnif1cence will
be lost from view a few weeks
hence, when new foliage con-
ceals it.
New York has a multitude Of
such lofty outlooks and the scenes
they overlook are as varied as
the interests of the behalder.
Hiking Brings Views
Many of the States finest
views are reserved for the visitor
who is willing to approach them
on foot. but there are plenty
more available to the April mo-
toriSt. Such a tourist might be-
gin his travels with a trip up the
Hudson River Valley.
On the new addition of the
Taconic parkway, south Of
Lafayetteville, is an overlook
which looks out over the Ia
comics. If the motorist takes the
west bank of the river, Route 9W
will bring him to Bear Noun.

All things point to a phenom-

For just the two months Of
January and February, 1858,
park travel increased rs per cent
over the same months in 1851.
Probably the increase for the
entire year will not be quite so
great, since the unusually mild
winter encouraged off-season
travel; but it will, perhaps by
