1924 by a Czech newspaperman
and, until recent years, only the
language of the old country was
spoken and the colony remained
untouched by the New World.

added. A lot of women in
Florida said it was nice to
know someone who was stay

Il think most women under

women who have been active
in politics themselves have
tried to get me back in. They
tell me how much they've given
up for it. But I tell them.
Look. this is your life; you
chose to get into it. I'm just

Mrs. Kefauver said she ex-
poets the Senator home by

COME HOME ESTES
Glad Primaries
Over, Says Money

She explained this was a
reference to their four chill
dren Linda. IA, David, 10,
Diane. 8, and Gail. S. None of
the children are enthusiastic
about their daddy campaign
ing for the presidency. and "all
of them are four years older
now, and need at least one of
us home with them, to help
with the homework and things
like that-not that / always
can do it. David's arithmetic
is beyond me now"
Teen-aged Linda is the most
vehemently opposed.
The only thing that con-
soleS Linda is that she doesn't
think he has a chance" Mrs.
Kefauver added.
The younger children don't
mind the political limelight as
much as they do the physical
absence of their parents, their
mother explained.
Politics is just a normal
way of life for them. They've
grown up in this environment.
They go to school with the
Nixon children" she said.
But they don't like the pic
lures and stories in the pa
pers. They read every word,
disapprovingly. and say, There
you go mother, making things
up again"
Nancy Cool Too
Nancy Kefauver didn't say it
in so many words. but it was
apparent that she has about as
little enthusiasm as her chill
dren for the presidential prize
her husband is stalking so de-
termlnedly. Choosing her words
carefully, she put it this way:
i am Just perfectly happy
to stay just intact, the way
we are. I love my new house.
and my painting classes. The
children Just want to live a
normal life. like other kids.
But, naturally. you have a lot
OF sympathy and understand
ing for what Estes is trying
to do.
Il know I was mousy in the
beginning" she said APOLOGIZE
cally. referring to her refusal
to be interviewed earlier.
But we had planned it that
way. I decided the way to
stay out Of things was to stay
out. ! never did intend to
campaign the last time. 1t
was one of those things that
sort of crept up on me.
I'm not interested in poll
tics. one bit - though do
enjoy people. and of course
I'm interested in Estes career.

Senator Estes Kefauver's day
Of disaster in California found
his wife. Nancy. and their four
children going about their
normal pursuits here in Wash
ington yesterday.
I'm SO delighted all these
primaries are over" says Mrs.
Kefauver. They're just ex-
distinguishing. l talked to
Estes last night. l said: Come
on home some time He said,
I'm kind of tired. Mommie."
"Of course. / don't think
California means much" she
added. If we win. it will just
give us more heart for Chicago.
But we'll go on anyhow. even
If he loses there"
Mrs. Kefauver spent most
of the day at her art studio,
as she does each Tuesday and
each Saturday morning (and
sometimes Thursday as welD =,
instructing several students in
oil painting.
In between admonitions to
her students C"Don't you think
you should use a little more

That's a lovely chinline') j.,
she chatted about the CAM
paign. 1t was the first inter-
view she has given since her
husband entered the presi-
Dental race.
Resolve Succeeded
The Senator's pretty red
headed wife, whom many re-
garded as his greatest CAM
paign asset in 1852, feels she
has been quite successful in
her resolve, reached last fall,
to sit out the campaign this
time.
Il spent three days in
Florida and three in Califor-
mia. But the rest of the time
I've stayed at home with the
children" she said.
Though, if Estes wins the
nomination, I guess l would
go along when he campaigns.
I haven't given it much
thought. yet.
I'll be in Chicago, of
course. 1 thought I'd take the
three girls with me. and leave
them at some nearby lake.
David is going to camp in
Tennessee for the summer.
People Are Wondering
Il know a lot of people are
wondering what is going on
with the Kefauvers. with my
staying out Of things this
time" she acknowledged. "Es-
ties and I talked it all out in
advance. l said if you want
to do this again, all right. but
you'll have to do it alone.
It's four to one"

Permits for the examination of
ruins, the excavation of archeo-
logical sites, and the gathering of
objects of antiquity are obtained
from the secretary of the Interior,
who apparently has delegated this
authority to the National Park
Service.
Such permits are given primari-
ly to state and federal museums,
colleges and universities. The Uni
versity of Alaska holds such a
permit.
Objects found on such sites as
Sledge Island are the property of
the government and are turned
over to accredited museums and
universities for public displays.
Anyone appropriating objects of
antiquity or injuring the sites is
subject to fine of $500 or i'm
prisonment of UP to 80 days.

Radioactive Rain Falls
On Victoria. &c.

VICTORIA, BIC. R-"Hpt rain
fell efss Victoria during the week
end, the Pacific Naval Laboratory
said last night.
The radioactive rain was re-
ported BY DR.. William English.
head of the Marine Physics Group
at .he laboratory.
1.-TWO gallons of the rain water
would have given a radioactive
count somewhat less than luni-
nous wristwatch," he said.
THE counting rate was several
times the ordinary background,
but it was not dangerous at ALL"
DR.. English believes the cause
of radioactivity in the rain was
the hydrogen bomb explosion over
Bikini % days ago.
