Dear Mrs. Lowman: I'M

ance of showing their love

changing society that the

financial concerns"
Up to here my reader seems
to approve Of this. but there
is one ny in the ointment.
He continues: However. it
seems to me that there is
one large discrepancy. Man
is supposed to be the only
continual lover. Do we as
sumo then that men do not
expect and long for some
show of natural affection
from their wives-Something
that is spontaneous and quite
independent Of their own
show Of affection?
Most articles seem TO be
written by. women who ex-
press the female attitude
that men should keep UP the
pre-marital show Of affection.
When we do. can't we expect
the same from our wives-an
unexpected kiss. a thank
you.' a handclasp or a worded
glance? Do not ALL of the
human race desire to be
loved?"
Mutual warmth, apprecia-
ton and awareness, are abb
solutely essential to any
happy and satisfactory re-
lationship between a man
and a woman. It does seem
to me that the majority Of
such articles are written to
men. and certainly there are
many men who need to read
them.
However, there are many
fine women who consider
themselves wonderful wives,

fail in the romantic attitude.

Hawaii, famed for hospitality. has
been wondering whether it suffers
lately from too much of a good
thing.
A Honolulu editor wrote us
that gate-crashing teen-agers there
have turned parties into OPEN
house affairs; he asked us to look
into the situation generally.
After making a Nationwide sur
vey, we found that Hawaii was not
alone in suffering from this come
one-come-all" disease.
The returns show that party
crashing, while not approved by
most teen-agers, has become such
q widely established practice that
we seem on the verge of raising
generation of free leaders.

Not everybody does it, but fully

crashed at least one party.

Most Dis0pprove

Despite the number who admit
to having crashed parties from
time to time, most teen-agers are
opposed to the practice and seem
to realize it can lead to trouble.
Especially the older ones.
Among boys in the 13-to-15-year-
old group, 40 per cent regard party
Crashing as harmless fun" % per
cent see it as normal" and 35 per
cent think it can lead to trouble"
Girls in the same age group are
even more lenient. Some 46 per
cent regard party crashing as
harmless fun" even though only
a few of them indulge. About 19
per cent consider it normal and "a
per cent believe it can lead to
trouble.
The fun of party crashing dimin-
ishes considerably as youngsters

16 or over age bracket.
Among the boys at this ripe old

upon crashing as a harmless diver

and a sober minded "a per cent
think it can lead to trouble.
The girls over 16 do not see the

Matter of Courtesy

The disclosure, through State De-
partment channels, that nearly dozen
foreign embassies are planning new
buildings in Washington accentuates the
coming problem posed by such construc-
ton. The Commissioners, properly con-
cerned with orderly coming for the pro-
lection of local property owners, are
seeking some method of bringing
embassy buildings into line with coming
restrictions. But the discouraging fact
is that there is no legal way at present
to compel compliance
The situation has come to public
attention recently as result Of prepa-
rations by the British for construction
of large Office building on Massachu-
sets avenue at Observatory Circle This
is a highly restricted residential area.
The Embassy itself conforms to the
coming pattern, but an office building
violates the regulations There is MOTH
ing the District can do about it, however,
for the Embassy's property technically
is foreign territory. AS an outgrowth
of the British move and of preceding
Canadian and Belgian building opera
tions, the Commissioners asked the State
Department to inquire as to any other
construction projects planned here by
foreign nations. The list that was forth
coming was impressive and disturbing.
Significantly, the negotiations be-
tween the Commissioners and the for
eign diplomats are being carried on
through the State Departments Office
of Courtesies and Privileges. After all,
any agreement on the part of the
embassies to comply with coming or
other city regulations apparently will be
the result of diplomatic courtesy. Our
foreign guests should realize that they
are as much beneficiaries of coming and
other city restrictions as their American
neighbors.

Roy of Hope

Noise-harassed residents of George
town and North Arlington have been
given ray of hope for relief-literally
as we'll as figuratively. The ray will
come from powerful military search
light to be installed at Chain Bridge to
mark the turn-off point for airliners
taking off from National Airport for
points west or north. The plan has only
one shortcoming-it is useful only at
night
The flood of complaints being
received by the aviation industry, the
Civil Aeronautics Administration and
the press concerns low-flying, off-course
aircraft in the daytime as we'll as at
night. Under CAA regulations, airlinerS
taking off in a northerly direction from
Gravelly Point are required to follow
the Potomac River until they reach
Chain Bridge before beginning their
turns. Judging from the number OF
protests filed almost daily by residents
on both sides of the river, many of the
airliners ignore the regulation and roar
their way at low attitudes over heavily
populated neighborhoods.
Obviously, If some pilots are going
to ignore the Chain Bridge guide point
in daylight hours, the effectiveness of
night Signpost will be limited But the
experiment is worth try. At least the
erring pilots will not be able to say they
could not see the designated turmoil
