Writer Tells
OF Visit to
Russia
BY FRANCES LIDE

May Craig. Washington cor
respondent who recently visit
ed behind the Iron Curtain
during a European tour, en-
tered Russia with the belief
that the basic principle of
communism is the destruction
Of all other forms of govern
ment. And she didn't find any
reason to change her opinion.
But she thinks it would be
good If Americans had more
contact with the Iron Curtain
countrieS-"more Of our people
going there, and more of their
people coming here, although
doubt If they would allow it,.
II hope I can go back, she
said yesterday. tits hard to
hate people when you get to
know them.
A past president Of the
Women's National Press Club,
Mrs. Craig reported on her OBJ
servations before its members
and guests at a luncheon at
Hotel Statler. She made her
recent trip with the so-called
United States Editors Tour"
as a representative of the
Portland (MeD Press Herald.
From what she saw, she
doesn't think Russian industry
can match the industrial po-
tential of the United States.
But maybe they didn't want
us to see it, if it cam, she
commented.
She believes there is a nu-
cleus of potential resistance in
the satellite countries. And
there is a despair that wrings
your heart -. Their only
hope is the United States, and
I don't know what the United
States can do"
In Russia she found mag
niflcent" buildings but noted
the construction was shoddy.
Perhaps they are trying to
make an impression-and do
ing it too quickly"
The great failure in the
Communist countries is in ag-
riculture she said. If Russia
fails in current efforts to open
up new lands. sit may be the
downfall of the whole Soviet
regime"
The great threat to the free
world, she believes, is neutral

With So many gifts to wrap this time of the year, paper. cards, rib- bons, seals and other package dec orations can add up to quite a sum.
 By using little imagination, these costs can be kept at mini mum.
 Ends of wallpaper rolls, whether left over from your own walls or bought as odd stock at your local pant store, are especially pretty for large packages. Even newspa- pers can be used to wrap large packages and the Want-ad section IS more attractive than the other pages.
 {, Small pieces of aluminium foil or shelf paper from the end of the roll are excellent for wrapping smaller packages. Or if you have a young child who fingerpaints, why not wrap gifts in some of his paintings.
 White tissue paper can be made quite appealing by spattering it with red or green ink or water with food coloring added.
 For seals, cut out colored pie lures from magazines, old Christ mas cards or even small bits of wrapping paper and paste them on the package. or you can paste them on a small piece of folded construction paper to make an en closure card.
 Acorns, pine cones or oak leaves painted or shelacked and tied or top of the package will catch the eye of both young and old.

NIARGE stood in the doorway of 4VA her bedroom and looked at the dress in dismay. Obviously 1t was meant for the Junior Class Snow Ball in January and just as obviously it was expensive.
 "Oh, why!" she exclaimed, touching the fabric as if it were something repulsive.
 Whats the matter with them, Marge thought. Dad needs new clothes and things for the house and Mom always looks so poor and worried.
 Wearily she changed her clothes. The house was empty, for her mother was baby sitting to earn 3 little extra to help out.
 Marge went downstairs and looked at the Christmas tree and the gifts displayed under it. She felt embarrassed even though she was alone in the room. Somehow it was alway rather mortifying to show the gifts when friends and relatives called. Her pile of gifts was always so large and lavish and her parents so sparse.
 Just this once she wanted their gifts to be important like hers, not just little odds and ends to be explained away with. we try to make a big Christmas for Marge."

From Where Came Christmas Trees2

Like so many other Christmas customs, the origin of the tree
 tradition is not definitely known.
 One theory holds that the 8th-
 century missionary Boniface per- suaded the Teutons to transfer
 their worship of Odin's sacred oak to an evergreen decorated in honor Sof the Christ child.
 Popular legend has it that the sfirst Christmas tree originated in Egypt where the first trees used were palm trees. Another story ssays that Martin Luther decorated a tree with candles to simulate an evergreen shimmering with star lit snow.
 We do know the Germans did much to popularize the use of Christmas trees, introducing them into both England and America. The German Prince Albert. con- sort of Queen Victoria, started the custom in England when he had a tree for his young daughter. The tradition crossed the Atlantic with Hessian mercenaries during the American Revolution.

 She had to swallow to keep her face pretty and composed, for what they really wanted most of all was a pretty and popular daughter. That was all they would allow her to give.

 I tried to tell them didn't want

 herself as she glanced at the twin

 Her knees were shaky as she wondered what she would say

 open and close, she ran down
 stairs to meet her mother Hi, " she said, quelling her feeling of nervousness.
 Her mother glanced at her anx- iously. Her dark brown eyes dart
 ed around the room, looking to see if Marge had brought the dress
 downstairs. Then the expectant look changed to questioning one.
 Didn't you like the dress2"
 The question was so humble and So blunt, Marge was startled.
 "Yes. it's beautiful, but" II knew you'd like it. Have you had it on yet?" ''No, I haven't" Tt will fit, I'm sure" her moth er's voice dwindled off. The bright ness in her face seemed to fade all at once. Whats the matter?" "It's 50 expensive. I wanted you ] to get a coat for yourself" "Oh, is that all. This old thlng will last quite while. While was

Early Saxons named the curious berried tree parasite used as a Yule-time decoration "Mistletoe". meaning shoot of tree. Early Morales dedicated mistletoe to their goddess of love and started kissing under it as a gesture of friendship and love.
