What they come up with is
one of those Freudian hostil-

The relationship, one of mount

out Of the fact that they share

accurate word, since Hudson
assumes exclusive use of the
line to hold amorous chats with

There is no point in going
further into the plot Of PILLOW

Gordon has worked it to the
absolute hilt of candor. He
makes much of the telephone

Funniest of this lot is a neurotic

Secretary Roger Ernst before
the biennial park service con-
ference which ends here to-
night.
Mr.. Seaton's goal was in
dorsed in effect by Winthrop
Rockefeller, chairman Of the
boards of Colonial Williams
burg. The spokesman for the
family that has restored this
Colonial gem to its present
polished beauty warned that
unless authorities plan and act
in a far-sighted fashion, visits
to recreation and historic places
may actually have to ''be ra-
toned" one of these days.
More than 400 Federal park
superintendents and other off,
cials Of NPS and National Capt.
tai Parks are attending the
four-day conference.
Secretary Seaton took his
action now" stand because Of
what he called the alarming
rapidity with which other in
terests are competing for use Of
potential recreation areas and
historical sites.
There is every reason to be-
lieve," he said "that the next
five or 10 years constitute criti-
cal years II we are to add what
we need to our heritage Of
scenic, historic and cultural
treasures for the enjoyment Of
the greater and largely urban

for future recreation use.
At the same time. the Secre-
tary added, the park service
must strive to establish new ma
tional parks, monuments. rec
reation areas and historic sites
along the seashores as well as
inIand-to complete the system
already partly realized by Mis-
sion 66 and previous programs.
wilderness areas already within
the park system must be pre-
served as well, he emphasized.
In addition, Mr.. Seaton said,
stronger efforts must be ex-
erted to encourage and help
States and other Government
subdivisions to expand their
own park and recreation hold
|ings.
Mr.. Seaton further called for
increased measures to give the
best possible training and ca
reer development Of the NPS
field and Office staff. and to
make the most efflcient use Of
these people.
Mr.. Rockefeller asserted that
rationing park visits among the
Nations burgeoning population
is the only alternative to sound
planning and action to preserve
the desired areas.
I'VE are faced with an oppor-
tunaty that has no parallel in
history-the opportunity to in
vest wisely in an unprecedented

is no doubt in my mind that the
use we make Of this gift will
have a profound influence on

EDITOR, JOLTS SOUTH
AFRIcA'S "APARTHEID"

johannesburg CAMP - A re-
port last week said that William
Gordon, managing editor of the
Atlanta Daily World, attended a
dinner party given in honor of D.
S. Ambassador Henry Byroade.
According to the report, Byroade
had preached the South African
governments strict social code
when he invited Gordon to the
party. That particular biased code
politely omits the invitation of
any member of the darker races,
if an official of the South At
rican government is to be present
Gordon was present at the fare
well party at the invitation of
Byroade. The party was given by
the American Embassy to honor
Byroade who has been appointed
envoy to Afghanistan. Other guests
attending the affair included South
African Cabinet member, P. K
Leroux, high ranking government
officials and members of the dip
lomatic corps.
Gordon, currently touring Africa
on funds from both the Ogden
Reid Foundation and the State De-
partment, was once a Neiman Eel
low at Harvard university. The
well-known journalist has Travelled
extensively throughout Africa de-
livering lectures.

The final offering is a Vanguard

COpalians.

NEW FOUND HAPPINESS
A Happy Couple

Happy people are those who
have learned to really like the
things and places that cost very
little money.
It was such a lovely day Mary
and John Doe decided to do some
thing they hadn't found time in
years to do, take walk!
Going along the highway they
stopped to look at a tree that
was so beautiful they wondered
why they had not noticed it be-
fore. They also saw the fields and
going through the park they no.
ticed a group of men and women
having a wonderful time.
Some were rowing, hiking, SWIM
ming or just lounging on the
beach A little farther on they
noticed some small children at
play in the sand. Mary and John
enjoyed watching all of the boys,
girls and little children.
It brought back memories of
their youth when they had brought
their small children out to the
beach. It was a big occasion then.
That was so long ago. With little
money then, they had been happy
and now money was scarce and
they have determined to find hap
piness with the things that cost
little or nothing and so far they
have succeeded.
Walking again they talked of
their first radio. John said, do
you remember our first set, Mary?
1t was a crystal set and I held
one of the ear phones" to my ear
and as soon as I heard a mans
voice I put the other phone" to

literally threw the set away. I
grabbed it and we both stood their
breathless saying, heard the voice
just as plain as I hear yours!
Mary replied, 90 yes, will never
forget the surprise of hearing THE
VOICE. I wonder now what I had
expected because I had been told
we would hear a program. BY the
time we had decided to listen for
more talking we heard them say
that was all"
Later on that evening we sat
huddled side by side, each with
one ear phone pressed to our ear
and listened to a wonderful band.
OF course every time we would
forget and move, there was this
deadly silence and one of us would
have to keep touching the needle"

titudes of these who have been
standing on the front lines of this
struggle provide the final answer

as medical services, employment

Certainly, their attitude should
speak persuasively to Jews who
have learned through the genera
tions to seek the opportunities to
which they are entitled not on
sufferance, nor as a result of
patenalistic tolerance, but as of
God-glVen r1ght. we rejoice in the
fact that members of once-exploit-
ed groups having won their way
to self-respect are properly de-
handing the respect of others.
Bombings and terrorism, and
the acts of isolated extremists
have united and strengthened the
great American majority forces
of law, order and goodwill. The
American ideal and the injunctions
of our faith coalesce.
That all men have a fundament-

pursuit of happiness and to full

that pursuit constitutes both the

try and the goal of our striving.

From that marvel we talked
about the first automobile we had

she did. If she were living today
she would say she knew she was

John and Mary came back to the
present remembering they had to
go do their marketing. This is a
new thing for them but they are
making new friends and they find
the clerks in the stores are so
friendly and so polite. That sur
prises them because they had
thought few poor people had such
