then 43. to think about getting
married. The lady said yes.
The next IA years were good
ones. He worked the thin
volcanic soil Of his own farm
and that of his landlord with
such skill that. in 1913, he was
finally able to pay off the bank
overdraft which had ridden his
shoulders for a quarter of a
century.
His London-born wife took to
country living like a cat to
cream. His native hands, most
ly Kikuyus. seemed happy and
content. And well they might
be. although all Kenya wages
are ridiculously low by Ameri-
can standards, the Coltarts
like most farmers, provide free
room and board, schools, and
medical care for their hired
men and their families.
Then came Mau Mau. Iso-
lated homesteads were attacked
by the terrorists. The whole
region was wire-taut and there
was no way to harvest the
crops. Mr.. Coltart's Kikuyu La
borers were implicated ana TAX
en- away to detention camps
He continued to feed and house
the deafness families. The
bars went up on "Cantie Has
windows and you didn't take q
bath without having a revolver
in the soap dish.
Trust Has Gone I
Now Mau Mau is only a re-
membered nightmare, but the
trust between white man and
black has been ruptured, per-
haps irreparably.
But Mr.. Coltart is a farmer
not a politician. He's UP with
the sun every day and out max
ing his rounds of the farm in q
beat-up automobile. Then ne
sits down at his roll-top desk,
reads the days mail, and goes
over the farm accounts. The
rest Of the day is spent in SUI
pervising his African foremen.
Hugh Coltart has few IL
lusions about what the future
holds for him and white men
like him in Kenya. He knows
that African nationalism is
surging unchecked and uncon-
trolled over this green land he
helped to build. In a way, he's
lucky: he has no son to pass the
farm on to.
But "Cantie Ha," after AZ
years Of hard work and heart
break. after crop price busts
near-bankruptcy, and locusts. is
as much a part of him as his
hands or his feet. It's all he
has.
And Mr.. Coltart, although he
knows that history has the
white colonist in Africa by the
throat. means to hang on until
the end. You have the feeling
that most of his African farm
hands would want Il. that way
After a few days ina sattlers
home, you come to the con-
clusicn that a great deal OF
nonsense about colonists has
been written by people who
have never been in a colony.
Tomorrow; Kenyo's future hinges on
three-roee Teamwork.

False Pretense:
This. I would suggest. puts
her ahead of Mr.. Amory, who Is
pretending to review a book.
People who do not admire her,
on the other hand" says Mr..
Amory in a slick, sly way. "feel
that such a decision on her part
was not necessarily the wisest
one"
When he gets to the book

Cleveland Arnory writes:
Ironically enough, the review
er's position, faced with a book
like this, is perhaps the most
satisfactory one. For the re-
viewer is, after all, paid to read
books and receives them free.
And this book. which is less a
book than an advertisement, is,
from his point of view, priced
about right"
He stabs the lady with rubber
words. and one senses that he
is having a heck of a good time
fancying himself as a studied
wit. Consciously or uncon-
sciously, he is trying to impress
the reader with what he has to

the book itself. s

words, for the opposite of what

THIS. I maintain, is not only
a blow below the belt but almost
below Miss Maxwell's chubby
little knees. OF Mr.. Amory, I
know nothing beyond his
obvious talent. His weight and
reach must be more than Miss
Maxwell's. At any rate, his
reach.
The man can shred her book.
This is the license of those
willing to spend many hours
reading a book and other hours
writing a review in return for
a few soggy coconuts. But when

that there are a few shells left

that. From now on, whenever
Miss Maxwell appears on the

HOUSTON. Tex. May 8 (R.-
An Atomic Energy Commission

that two and possibly four en-

said "the situation is under con-

might receive secondary exposure

Gut Finger Storts Man
On Way to Prosperity

says Mr.. Fuzak. I'VE figure on
going to about IS in the near
future"
Mr.. Fuzak calls his idea a
"form-cut fingertip dressing"
Basically, the sticky plastic
bandage is cut in the form of q
capital H" with the gauze patch
extending along the cross-bar,
Extending In either direction
from the cross-bar are short
tabs,
To apply the dressing. the user
simply wraps the uprights Of the
H" around the finger from OPP
posite sides. with the cross-bar
running UP over the tip Of the
finger. This leaves the tabs stick
ing out each way from the
|fingertip. and these are pulled
down the sides Of the finger to
complete the seal.
Mr.. Fuzak himself thought I'D
the basic H" shape Of the band
age. Bernard Boles. now his gen.

tab idea. Jointly. they hold a

roly poly labor leader may
have Incorporated" more
than 100000 of union funds
from 1916 through 1852. At one
point the Arkansas Senator re-
ferred to Beck's use of union
funds as 'thefts."
According to the testimony
brought out by the committee,
Beck repaid $4,000 to the union
starting in 1854. The investiga-
tors said the repayments were
made after the tax investigation
got under way.
Suspended by AFL-CIO
After Beck invoked the Fifth
Amendment before the commit
tee, the AFL-CIO Executive
Council suspended him as a
vice president of the federation.
1t set May 20 for a hearing on
charges that Beck had brought
organized labor into disrepute
by his refusal to explain his use
of union funds.
The council also ordered its
Ethical Practices Committee to
look into whether the 1.5-million-
member Transfers Union is sub
stantially under the domination
Of corrupt" influences.
The committee has set Monday
for a hearing on these charges
and this is another date on Beck's
calendar. He has announced that
the Transfers Executive Board
will attend that hearing.
