in Town Topics in the New
Yorker. He's also the man
who once stayed in a hotel
room here he didn't like, so
with f1endish delight he deco
rated it Just before leaving.
The decoration was a tiny

up one wall, across the ceiling
and down the other side of the

How much American humor
Ambassador Tong picked UP
from Mr.. Troy I wouldn't
know, but the Chinese diplo-
mat heard Hugh describe the
penalty a New Hampshire viii
lage once inflicted on the
general storekeeper, a pleasant
fellow who couldn't resist q
little shortchanging. In
stead of making up the differ
ence by shoplifting, said Hugh,
we shop-stuffed his store.
Everybody who came in to buy
something, surreptitiously left
a bigger package. THE store
keeper didn't know where all
the stuff was coming from, but
eventually his store was so
crowded he could hardly get
in it," =. What happened?
"Oh. he had to quit work
because of slight nervous
breakdown" smiled Hugh. !.
The Ambassador listened in
tently, smiled and said good
by. Collector or no, I have .
feeling he's still mulling over
that one.
With the Washington debut
season now upon us, it occurs
to this writer that other cities
handle 1t so much better than
we do.
For instance, the bane Of all
doting parents of bowling buds
is the escort situation. What
frets the fond older fry is not
seeing that the young thing has
a good time at her own party:
it's seeing that she gets squirrel
to all the other doings. Men
being the spoiled dears they
are, they frequently think
they've done fine and noble
things for womankind just to
get themselves TO a festivity.
But down in Houston, Tex,
they've worked out this prob
lem to a queens taste. A
group of post-debutantes
formed what they call Invita-
ton Service that not only mails
invitations, but also sends each
debutante a list of all the
parties. plus the name of the
boy who will escort her to each.
That's service, all right!
What's more, II the girl
doesn't want to be collected
by the lad selected. she can
refuse him and get another.
Pretty posh for the females.
:. But men get their innings
in Houston. It's the elite msie
Allegro Club that determines
who the debutantes viii be in
the first place. The girls who
are invited to their swish
soiree In November are In.

 q can't imagine why anybody would want to do a thing like that" Mrs. Bartley said. She add ed that there had been no threats nor any incident like it.
 Rayburn said today the cross burning was "either a boyish prank or done by somebody who lives outside my district"
 "No people who live in my dis trict would do a thing like that" Rayburn said at his news confer ence just ahead of the days ses- sion of the House of Representa- tives.
 Rayburn has avoided taking public stand in the controversy over racial segregation.

Strikes Results Will Be Appearing
 For Some Time
By SAM DAWSON

NEW YORK, R-The costs of the just ended steel strike are likely to keep poppin' to the sur face for some time to come.
 The rising price of steel and the new wage scale pattern will plant some time bombs with de- layed effects on the economy.
 Businessmen will notice them first in increased operation costs. Consumers may see them later in higher prices-if competition permits manufacturers to pass along all or part of the higher costs.
 One educated guess. for exam pie, is the expected steel price will add $40 to $so to the cost of making a 1857 model car.
 These hidden effects, coming to light little by little, won't be noted at first in the furry to re- open the steel mills and catch up on thrilled orders, and in the ex- pected rush of steel customers to place orders to refill their de- pleted pipelines.
 If this develops, as many antici- pate, it is likely to give the econ- omy an apparent glow of health for the rest of the year. But some of the glow will be inflationary in nature-and the health question able.
 The costs will be there, either way.

Size of Lots for Homes

in the expensive residential area
along Owens road.
Mr.. Romano said lots along
Owens road will be 10000 square
feet in size. those behind Owens
road will be 5000 square feet in
size with a 5000 square feet
average, and the remainder of
the tract will have lots of a
minimum of $500 square feet
with an average Of $500 square
feet.
Citizens Requests Needed
The concession is in line with
requests from the Forest Heights
Council and the Barnaby Manor
Citizens Association. A council
spokesman told the board, 1T is
our feeling that permitting lot
sizes as small as $500 square feet
creates too high population
density to be desirable in the
long rum"
The Hillcrest View Building
Corp. won approval Of its
plans for construction Of 81
homes in the Spauldings district
after developers agreed to i'm
crease lot frontage to a mini
mum of IS feet. Lots in the
area will average $500 square
feet.

Carson, was told to revise his
plans for construction Of l4O
homes on a 45-acre tract in Lam

Senator Fenwick said the anti

Only one step in the Gray

A constitutional convention,

That action left the way clear
for adoption of legislative meas
ures specifically authorizing pay

But the Governor has never
called the General Assembly to-
gether to adopt rush legislation.
The State has been sitting tight,
until the mounting NAACP suits
