HOLLYWOOD, Aug. 20 (AP)
Two promising young Holly
wood players, presumed by I'M
romantic agents, today called
off their wedding set for Satur-
day.
Andra Martin, one Of the
most beautiful young actresses
to come along since Elizabeth
Taylor. had planned a church
wedding in her home town,
Rockford, Ill. The bridegroom
was to be Ty Hardin, handsome
television cowpoke.
The plan was secret when a
reporter confronted them about
It. Both denied 1t at first, but
later admitted the rumor was
true.

we told our agents about it we
were advised against it at this

Our Vote and Theirs

During our 1856 presidential cam
paign, on invitation from the State De-
partment, the Kremlin sent three Soviet
citizens over here to attend few Of our
political rallies and study how we choose
between opposing candidates for ONCE,
high and low. Presumably, as a result
Of what they saw and heard, these OBJ
servers went back home behind the Iron
Curtain with an awareneSs that our
electioneering System-despite the fact
that it is sometimes noisy, and even be-
wildering in certain respects-is really
a system under which Americans have
both the liberty and the power to decide
whether they want one or another Of
our parties to govern.
And now the Kremlin, for its own
part, is reciprocating. It has invited the
State Department to send to the Soviet
Union three-man observing team to
look at next months parliamentary"
elections in the USSR. The team will be
made up Of magazine editor, a history
professor and political scientist. I'm
doubtedly these men will find the expe-
rience altogether interesting, but what
they will see, what they will learn, can
be predicted in advance of their trip:
They will return here with nothing more
sensational to report than the all-too-
familiar fact that the people over there
have no freedom of choice, but only the
right" to indorSe the single-party Com
munist ticket This makes everything
very simple. It does so by doing away
with the inconvenience Of having to
decide between rivals of differing views,
and 1t also eliminates the annoyance
Of having to run the country with the
consent Of the governed.
Since this is obvious, and since the
State Department is not quite sure that
1t has the money to finance their trip,
1t may be argued that the three chosen
American observers ought to stay home
instead Of travelling thousands of miles
to the USSR merely to confirm what
everybody knows already. But such an
argument may actually be shortsighted.
After all, If we can promote continuous
exchange Of election-studying visitors
between our two countries, the people
Of the Soviet Union may in time be able
to persuade the Kremlin that they
should have at least as much freedom
of choice as we have. Anyhow, 1t does
no harm to dream.
