celebration, plus chiefs of
state plus prime ministers plus
the top man of all, President
MISUNDERSTANDING has to

Carved in the marble mantel
in a drawing room at Tudor
Place is a picture Of Father
Time with his scythe broken
in two.
No symbol could better rep
resent this historic Federal
mansion which since 1905 has
dominated the hill off @ and
Thirty-first streets in George
town.
For somehow, Father Time
does seem to have laid aside
his scythe and none of his
usual havoc has disturbed the
tranquility of this Washing
ton landmark.
Little Change
Little has been added or
taken away from the house as
it was conceived by William
Thornton, who also was the
architect of the Capitol.
And since its completion in
1916 it has been occupied by
the same family.
Thomas Peter, the son Of
the first Mayor of Georgetown,
built Tudor Place. His wife
was Martha Parke Gusts, a
granddaughter of Martha
Washington and the land was
bought with the wedding pres
ent given by George and
Martha Washington.
Contrary to public opin-
ion," said Mrs. Armistead Peter
III, who now is one of the
occupants of Tudor Place.

this house. He couldn't have

before it was built. However,

Father Time Deals Gently
With Historic Tudor Place

Lafayette did stay here and q
great ball was given in his
honor. We still have an en-
craving of Lafayette which he
presented to the family at that
time"
Thomas Peter whimsically
named his three daughters
Brittania wellington, Colum-
bia, and America. Daughter
Brittania married Commodore
Beverley Kennon and occupied
Tudor Place for all her 96
years. Their daughter Martha
Kennon married a cousin, DR..
Armistead Peter, and thus the
house kept it's original identi-
fication with the Peter name.
Armistead Peter, jr.. is the
present owner and occupant Of
the house which he shares
with his son and daughter in
law, Mr.. and Mrs. Afmistead
Peter III.
The latter couple has one
daughter, Mrs. D. Worthing-
ton Pearre, Of Baltimore.
Tudor Place Is considered
an architectural gem with its
beautiful proportions. 15-foot

and corniceS.
Temple" Notable
The most notable feature Is
it's central portion, with the
perfectly circular temple" as
it is called by the family. One
half Of the circle. supported
by 20-foot columns, protrudes
from the house. The other
half is concave and an integral
part Of the house.

Step Backwards

CAID former President Harry S. Truman,
y when he chose on June %, 1852, to veto
the harsh McCarran-Walter Act:
a.. the bill, taking all it's provisions
together, would be step backwards :.
the bill would perpetuate injustices of long
standing against many other nations of the
world, hamper the effort we are making to
rally the men of east and west to the cause
of freedom, and intensity the repressive and
inhumane aspects of our immigration pro-
cedure.
''The price is too high, and in good
conscience, cannot agree to pay it,
That was more than 3 years ago.
Perhaps the Kilgore Senate Judiciary
Subcommittee will manage to do something
about this law when it begins its public
hearings on the Act this week.
It's high time someone did.

How he triumphed is told in story

Our first personal contact with Mayor
Mandich was made many years ago.
That would take us back to the early
1905 when bro Mandich was the captain,
center and linebacker of the Tulane Uni
versity grid squad and we were editing the
Zaiednicars dope Bucket" a column
which had an army Of readers.
We saw more than fit in those halcyon
days to name bro. Mandich to one of our
All-Croatian- America football teams and
the Croatian Fraternal Union recognized
the selection by awarding the great Tulane
star beautiful gold medal.
This past Summer we had the plea
sure of renewing acquaintances with the
Mayor when he took deep, personal
interest i'm the Croatian Fraternal Uni
On's 4th National Junior Convention, held
July IA, in Gary, and proclaimed the
week of June 27-July as "Croatian Fra
ternal Union Week" in his city.

may well be proud of Mayor Mandich, a
man who appears destined for future great
ness in Democratic political circles.
The privilege and pleasure of knowing
his has enriched our own life.

AS result of her efforts, by 1858 all
but six States celebrated Thanksgiving Day
on the fourth Thursday of November. 1t
was not until 1941, however, that all Act
of Congress officially named the fourth
Thursday in November as Thanksgiving
Day in the United States.

Frankly, we should be thankful to Dl-
vine Providence every single day of the year
that we live in America
That we aren't aware of and thankful
for our blessings is indeed sad commen-
tary on our acceptance of the American
Way of Life as something we inherited to
take or to leave something to feel SNUG
about while millions of others the world
over live in abject misery.
We take in stride today the miracle of
television, automobiles thought only FOOLS
dream a few years ago, household appli-
ances beyond belief, priceless life saving
medicines and so on, ad infinitum What
a pity What shame
We forget, conveniently, those Amer
lean pioneers of all natiOnalities of de-
cades ago who settled this land, who
built its cities, who fought that genera
tons yet unborn might live here in free
dom, who died ON the field of battle that
the living might be eternally thankful to
God for the privilege of being Americans.
Certainly. those pioneers were thankful
every day that fate brought them to Ame-
rica - thankful in spite of a way of life
that guaranteed them no more than free
dom = thankful in spite of the lack of any
thing amounting to luxury.

1t all paid off.
Last May in the primary,

Mandich received more votes
than the other three COM

He faced Republican En-
cry A. Badanish, a drug
gist, in the election Novem-
Der 9Th and won by 1882
votes, an overwhelming
majority.
Badanish explains his de.
feat in these terms:
"Mandich had too much OF
Everything. He is personally
popular, and he has one OF
the strongest organization
live ever heard of"
What about the precedent
that Gary would not elect >

as township trustee, forged a

That they agree that Soviet satellites

that score the parade outside the Soviet
