The children's table could have
small bowls of Santa-faced lolli-
pops, candy canes, balloons to keep
their interest alive. The eldest
child in the household could be
appointed host or hostess at the
table, a good way to teach them
the ways of gracious entertaining.
A gay grab bag filed with tiny
inexpensive gifts that will keep
the youngsters busy for while
can start the party off right-all
the children might disappear with
coloring books, things ITO build or

It's good plan, and sometimes
it works. A small record player in
the children's area can hold their
attention for brief period.
If you have a large circle of
friends, this party can be dupli-
Gated throughout the holidays.
Once you have invested in big
cleaning chore, fresh flowers, new
clothes, perhaps, why not entertain
all your friends at a series of par
ties, and relax for a long time. It's
one way to pay off a lot of debts

The easiest way 10 nave run
during the holidays and see your
friends too. is to invite them and
their children. Maybe the house
will take a beating, but that's to
be expected.
The open house idea for holi-
days, popular generations ago, is
a wonderful and inexpensive way
to entertain. You can serve simple
fare, exhibit your choice silver,
decorative china and glassware.
One family uses the two-tabie
buffet technique, one table for the
small fry, one for adults. If you'd
like TO experiment with it, keep
everything on the tables pretty
much the same. The cloths could
be bright green or red felt or linen.
The punch bowls could be the
same. Hand GRATED punch bowls
look traditional, even though con-
temporary Children could have a
punch of fruit juice or a creamy
milk shake. Parents can take their
traditional eggnog with cognac,
and the children will not be the
wiser. "
The menu on that day should be
simple - small sandwiches, cakes,
cheese, crackers. After all it's the
get-together that counts, and If

DC. Jobs Decline
Noted in January

There were 10000 fewer Jobs
in the District in January than
in December.
But in reporting this yester-
day, Fred z. Hetzel, director OF
the United States Employment
Service for the District, said the
decline was expected because
of the ending of temporary
holiday employment. Most OF
these jobs were in retail trade
and the Post Office Depart
ment.
Employment totaled 666, 100
compared with 1856, 100 in De-
cember. Retail trade and the
Post Office accounted for 10, 10O
of the 10000 loss.
During the same period in
1858 the decline was 26,400,
while in 1857 the estimate was
23,100.

BinghamtOn Lawyer

| Another senior counselor is
George L. Human, q Bingham
ton lawyer from an old New
York political family. A schol-
arly, courtly soul, he is much
admired by the rest of the staff
for his serenity. He, too, is not
on the State payroll. He was
brought in specifically to help
the Governor make the top 40
or SO appointments for State
Jobs.
Mr.. Human combed the
State for talent. His findings
were, inevitably, endlessly dis
cuSsed by the Governor and his
staff. The resulting appoint
ments included a sprinkling Of
Democrat holdovers and a few
new Democrats.
For political advice, the Gov
ernor turns to L. Judson Nor
house, a deft professional poll
tician who looks and talks like
an amateur.
A 44-year-old Ticonderoga
lawyer, long-headed and long
jawed, "Jud" Morhouse more
than lives up to his college
nickname of Breezy" He calls
fellow politicians kid"
Errand Boy
Up until last year, Mr.. Nor
house was rather slightingiy
known as "Dewey's errand
boy" But last spring he laid
his head on the political block
and survived, so everyone is
looking at him with new
respect.
In defiance Of tradition, un-
written law and every other
prohibition known to common
sense and practical politics, Mr..
Morhouse abandoned the dis
passionate attitude required of
State chairmen and went
around the State telling the
county chairman on the not-so-
quiet that he had found him a
wonderful guy in the person of
Nelson Rockefeller.
There was no end of upset
about this at the time. But Mr..
Rockefeller won by a $4,000
plus margin in a Democratic
year and not only vindicated
Mr.. Morhouse's judgment but
rendered further argument
somewhat academic.
Today he is top dog in New
York COP. circles, and the
Governor invites him to every
one Of the innumerable meet
ings being held in the Capitol.
Mr.. MorhouSe is sensible of the
honor but says he will have
to skip a few if he is to keep
the organization together.
The Governor also consults
regularly with Malcolm Wilson,
the sober-faced, fair-haired,
cautious Lieutenant Governor.
Morhouse engineered the al
lance between Rockefeller and
Wilson, who at A, has 20 years
of legislative experience in the
New York assembly.

Draft the Program

As counsel he must draft the
Governors legislative program
One Of the reasons the Gov
ernor particularly treasures
Mr.. Perkins is that he shares
his knowledge of and enthu-
SiaSm for the health, education
and welfare measures which
the Governor hopes to intro
duce to New York.
The secretary to the Gov
ernor is william ]. Roman, q
black haired, serious-faced
man of As who brings a knowl-
edge of theoretical and prac-
teal politics to his work.
He was formerly dean of the
School of Public Administra-
ton of New York University
He was staff director of the
Constitutional Revision Com
mission which first brought
Rockefeller into the political
picture of the Empire State,
He is currently burdened with
sitting OUT the Governors
callers and organizing a study
of the executive functions.
The newest member Of the
Rockefeller stafs is Richard
Annper, formerly a legislative
correspondent in Albany for
the New York Times.
| Mr. Amper IS years old,
gray-haired, tense and. de-
termined. He is the Governors
press secretary and is rated
efficient. and dedicated.
A committee Of New York
State editors visited the Gov
ernor with complaints about
Mr.. Amper, but the New York
States Legislative Correspond
ent's Association disassociated
themselves from the criticism.

Itous sessions that led up 10 the
painful and politically unpopu-
lar decision TO increase New
York's personal income taxes
by $3.50 million. 1t was he
who first ventured the opinion
that there was no other way,
With that expression virtually
went the guarantee Of the nee
essary votes to carry on the
distasteful business since Mr..
Mahoney rules the Senate with
q firmness that Lyndon john
son might envy.
OF the seven men with whom
the Governor constantly con-
fers the closest Is undoubtedly
Francis A. Jameson, a gnomish
public relations wizard who as
q reporter won the 1888 Pulitzer
Prize for his stories Of the
Lindbergh kidnapping.
He is not on the State pay
roll, but an employe of the
Rockefeller family. A slender
man with brushed-back white
hair, he comes TO Albany sew
eral days q week and surveys
the political scene through
heavy lidded eyes over an
eternal curl Of cigarette smoke.
He alone of the Rockefeller
staff has no college degree. He
started to work at the age of
II. began advising the Gov
ernor in 1910. when the latter
began his Latin American prof.
ects. He knows the Governor
well enough to argue with him.
"See what frankie thinks" is
a phrase often on Rockefeller's
lips.

turned out wen. Mr., Wilson, .
Catholic. Is conservative where
Mr.. Rockefeller Is liberal. But
ever since Mr.. Wilson chap
eroned Mr.. Rockefeller around
the State on q set-acquainted
tour last May. they have gotten
along beautifully together. Mr.,
Wilson has an encyclopedia
memory, and whenever the
Governor wants to know what
the legislature did. he comes
front and center with the name
Of the bill and the vote.
The Governors counsel is
Roswell B. Perkins, who was
favorably known in Washington
as assistant to Oveta Culp
Hobby, when she was Secretary
Of Health. Education and Wei
fare. He is 81 years Old, six
feet. i've inches tall and a men,
tai giant. He was graduated
from Harvard at 10, cum laude
Three years later he got his
degree cum laude from Har-
ward Law school. In 1885,. he
served as an assistant counsel
on the Senate Crime Investi-
eating Committee.
After his Washington expert
ence, during which he met Gov,
Rockefeller, he returned In
1857 to New York for private
law practice which included, as
so many New York firms do,
work for the Rockefeller in
terests. When MIR. Rockefeller
was considering entering the
New York gubernatoriaI race,
he asked Mr.. Perkins to make
some studies of State problems.
Almost before he knew it, Mr.
Perkins was involved In the
campaign as co-ordinator and
Speech-writer.
