The liberals have different
ideas on how far the rule for
closing debate should be changed.
Some would be content with
two-thirds Of those present and

majority to be able to close
debate.
Although the liberals are not
likely to be any more successful
now than they we're four years
ago in persuading the Senate to
adopt all Of it's rules for each
Congress, there are indications
that civil rights legislation will

CARE Gets Food
To Needy Hungary

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. a.
pa spokesman for CARE
announced today the relief or
ganization had gotten 10 tons
of food into Soviet-imperiled
Hungary.
He said the food entered the
country at an undsclosed place
the day before THANKSGIVING
through the efforts Of Robert
H. Meyer, relief official.
A message received here from
Bertran Smucker, a CARE Of
ficial in Germany, said:
IF Americans could see the
great tragedy that is occurring
in Hungary they would not hes
itate to give their support. If
there was ever a time when help
was needed it is now"
The spokesman said CARE
food packages could not be sent
to specific persons in Hungary.

thinks the effort should be made
to bring the issue to the atten-
ton of the country at the start
of the new Congress.
If the opening-day fight fails,
the liberals will continue their
efforts to get a new antifilibus-
Itering rule through the normal
process Of asking the Rules Com
mite to report out an amended
rule.
Face Big Obstacle
But they face an almost In
Isurmountable obstacle in trying
to amend the rules after the ses-
sion gets under way, because
under existing rules not even 81
Senators can close debate on 9

That is why the liberals, since
1858. have tried to establish thu

Although the Democrats will

sible the rules fight could require
him to make a ruling that would
have an important bearing on
his own political future.
/ The last time an effort was
made to have the Senate adopt
new rules. at the start of the
1858 session, the situation was
reversed. The Republicans held
control on the floor, but the late
Democratic Vice President Bark
ley was still presiding. His term
did not expire until Inaugural
ton Day, nearly three weeks
later.
In that occasion Al Repub-
licans, under the leadership of
the late Senator Taft. joined 20
Democrats in voting to table the
move of the liberal Democrats to
establish the precedent that the
Senate, like the House, should
adopt new rules for each Con-
gress.
Their proposal, like the pres
ent one, would have upset the
doctrine that has prevailed for
more than 165 years that. the
Senate is a continuing body, and,
therefore, has its old rules in eff

seen him as newspaperman, au-
thor, Government official, Dip
lomat and confidant of four
Presidents.

sociations, DR.. Eisenhower firmly
believes that partisan politics
should be kept out Of education,

In Europe models aren't as

MODERN MARRIAGE

set her, so never made his
existence known, but died
mourning for her. The poem
was based on a legend among
sailors in Suffolk. but there
are similar legends in Brittany
and among other seafaring
people.
In the United States it seems
to have been hard for legisla-
tors to agree on the proper
course to follow in such an
event. I understand that
seven of the States specifically
provide that the second mar
riage can be declared illegal
and the wife returned to her
first husband; whereas Louisi-
ana gives the second husband
right of way and proposes that
the first marriage shall be
voidable. Pennsylvania and
Tennessee legislatures were
more cautious; they left it up
to the first husband to choose
whether he would take his wife
back. Unless he said he wanted
her, the second husband could
keep her!
In short. the lawmakers
seem to have realized that the
legal aspects of the problem
were not simple and perhaps
not final. There were human
values involved, as well as
laws. What do you think would
be proper law to govern such
cases?

BY ELEM

Questions often come our
way about the wierd Charles
Adams-like poses that models
sometime assume in fashion
photographs.
Their emaciated good looks,
static stances, and dramatic
pastures are what fashion pho
tographers demand Of models
in their quest for that differ
ent picture.
I remember talking to a top
model in New York who pointed
out that since she had "re-
tired to get married" she was
eating again. ''My stomach
was so shrunk it took me five
months to get in condition to
enjoy a good meal" she added.
New York models are the
thinnest in the country. In
Washington models are termed
"utilitarian" because they
double in brass doing Tv, run
way and fashion photography.
They can't be too thin nor too
heavy.
Because the cycle in FASH
ion photography right now is
toward the use of the simplest
light without shadows in order
to best show the merchandise
details, models must be thin
since they photograph heavier
always.
The reason for some of the
out-of- this-world posing is
that the best possible angle
for a specific fashion detail
must be obtained.
Showing Scenery
Those who clamor for real
istic scenes wind up being
known as scenery experts"
Lots of woods, air, sky, and
sometimes you can see that
the model has on a somewhat
attractive dress.
A model may be paid SIS to

A contortionist couldn't do
better than a skilled model
who is able to achieve so many
different looks with the mere
moevment Of her face, hands
and torso above the hips.
For the basic silhouette is
usually settled upon for her
by the art director, the stylist,
and the cameraman. She

will produce the fashion story
