have forgotten what one is,
except that his small brother
collects Lincoln head pennies.
Don't suggest a quiet eve

there. He probably does want
to see a movie.

he'd rather do all the talking
anyway.

you think he secretly likes it.

AP NeHsfeatures Mriter

A woman is supposed to
Jump at two things: A mouse
and a marriage proposal.
The wit who thought that
one up obviously was male,
reStive in a wife-dominated
environment and given to
jokes he didn't repeat at
home.
But it's representative of
masculine thinking on women
and their nesting compulsion.
Another example is their un-
cooperative attitude toward
that perfectly sensible inSti-
tuition, leap year.
Leap year, as everyone
knows. is comprised Of 366
days in which a girl has a
sort Of unofficial sanction for
keeping on with what she's
been doing the previous three
years-husband-hunting.
The trouble is, in the
charming custom of girl chas-
ing boy. nothing is said about
the necessity for the chasee
to stand still. Sure she can
ask. but he doesn't have to
say yes.
Does that mean, then, that
leap year 1860 is going to be
no help at all to the girl
who's fit to be tied up in
nuptial knots?
Start Today
Not if she starts right to-
day - appropriately Valen-
tines Day - to reappraise
standard strategy in the bat
tie OF the sexes. And with
only l01a months left in the
year, and with women out
numbering men in increasing
percentages, there's not a
moment to waste.
Most marital campaigns
are lost because spinsters, be-
Ing ladies, play according to
the rules.
These rules, laid down over
the years, stem from the
basic fallacy that a woman's
three weapons are Irritation,
f1attery and food. They may
have been once. But the fell
lows had them reconnoitered
so long ago that the male de-
tense in the altar sector to-
day is practically impreg-
nable.
The only hope for victory
lies in keeping your mission
top secret and plotting a
sneaky, subversive plan of re-
verse tactics.
For example:
Don't try to win his heart
through his stomach. He's so
accustomed to food the way

What happens is that Candle
light is reStaurant-t h e a t er
which has a casual attitude
toward starting time and is
commercially licensed to act
length intermissions. The result
is a production of Born Yes
terday" that is like reading a
three-part piece in, say, the
Virginia Quarterly.
This is pleasant enough, no
doubt, for people looking for a
place to spend the night. Not,
however, for those who prefer
to see Miss Cass in Carson
Kanin's comedy to sitting
through two long intermissions
devoted to bar and coffee Serv-
ice.
A Ben -Hur"- length Born

Mr.. Kanin ever had in mind.

to note that the actors did

In justice to Miss Cass. it
must be said that she is a fine
Billy Dawn, that Frank Cam
PAMELA is a worthy Harry
Brock, and that this is a gen.
orally sound summer production
that Candlelight has put to-
gether.
Moreover, against the OPEN
ing session of the Democratic
convention. Miss Cass drew
pretty close to a capacity au-
dience last night; one whose
members did not look as if they
were hopelessly allergic to
Democrats.
Billie Dawn, the heroine Of
Born Yesterday" and Miss
Cass are palpably styled for
each other. The former, If
you haven't heard, is the
travelling companion of a junk
tycoon, Harry Brock, who
comes to Washington to buy
some legislation that will per-
init him to organize an inter-
national junk cartel.
AS this suggests, Harry has
rather a crude concept of the
subtleties of Government oper-
alton, but this is actually
merely secondary in the scale
Of his Illustrations here.
His really fatal flaw, and the
principal point of Kanin's far
cical narrative, is that he de-
cides to put a polish on Billie
that will give her at least a
minimal social standing here,
To this end, he hires a staff
man Of the New Republic to
act as Billie'S tutor. What does
this egghead do but educate
the girl to the truth that Harry
is a crook, that honesty is a
nice policy for a girl, and that
it would be more honorable of
her to marry him than to go
on being Harry'S mistress?

Tribute to a Leader

In very real sense, the entire COM
munity joins the Washington Hebrew
Congregation this evening in celebrat-
ing the 25th anniversary of service by
its spiritual leader, Rabbi Norman Ger
Stenfeld. Few men in the history of our
city have stepped down from the pulpit
to translate pleas for inIerfaith Coop
Grafton so effectively into constructive
programs of community welfare.
Under his leadership, the Washing
ton Hebrew Congregation has become
one of the leading Jewish Reform tenn
pies in the world. The physical mani
festations of this progress, Furthermore
the growth in members and the beau
tiful religious center where they wor-
ship-are only part of the story. Beyond
the role of preacher, DR.. Gerstenfeld has
used his eloquent voice to advance
worthy national and local enterprises
too numerous to mention. The tribute
this evening, however, is not valedic-
ton. 1t merely marks milestone. It
is good that we can look forward to
many more years of the fine leadership
which has enriched the Nations Capital
for the last quarter of century.

Ike Has Little Choice

1t seems to us that the President
must agree to meet with Mr. Khrushchev
II the General Assembly adopts the rec
ommendation from the neutrals for a
two-man summit" meeting.
A host of reasons, some of them
good, can be put forward in opposition.
In all probability, nothing constructive
would emerge from such a get-together.
How could it, given Mr.. KhrushchevS
arrogant and contemptuous attitude?
1t would involve some embarrassment
for the President, who has insisted on
certain conditions" as a preliminary to
any meeting. 1t might be something of
propaganda or prestige victory for
Mr.. KhruShchev. And it could have un-
predictable effects on our own political
campaign.
But considerations of this kind have
to be balanced against the consequences
OF an American refusal to heed such an
appeal from the General Assembly. The
proposal has been made by five inf1uen-
tial 'neutrals Prime Minister Nehru,
Marshal Tito, IndoneSia's President Su-
karno, UAR President NaSser and Presi-
dent Nkrumah of Ghana. With this
sponsorship, its appeal to the General
Assembly will be powerful indeed, and
its overwhelming Endorsement is almost
certainty.
In these circumstances, the United
States, in our opinion, simply cannot
scuttle the proposal or refuse to heed
the call when it comes, To do so surely
would have disastrous consequences for
us in those areas of the world where
Mr.. Khrushchev, with considerable sue
cess, has been posing as the true cham
pion Of peace. He would be formidably
armed indeed If he could say that the
President of the United States, needless
of an appeal from the General Assem-
bly,, had refused even to meet with him.
So Mr.. Eisenhower, we think, will
have to swallow the pill. If there is to
be refusal, let it come from Mr.. Khru-
shchev. And if the meeting is held,
only to founder on the obstacle of So
Wet intransigeance, let the onus for
that also fall on the man from the
Kremlin who goes about preaching peace
while subverting every honest effort to
achieve it.

Nixon on Housinq

In his speech on housing and urban
problems, Vice President Nixon has
moved several steps beyond the gen.
eralities of the Republican platform,
with a statement of goals considerably
broader than either he or Mr.. Eisen-
hover has suggested before.
Goals, Of course, are one thing. The
specifics Of how they will be accom-
pliShed is another, and this is the miss
ing ingredient in the speeches of both
candidates on this subject which up to
now has led more to head-scratching
than to any understanding of exactly
what 1t is that the candidates are
committing themselves to do.
The Democrats have called major
conference of urban leaders in Pitts
burgh for october 10, from which pre-
sumably will come number of specific
proposals for Senator Kennedy to back.
They will emphasize, undoubtedly,
substantial Stepup in programs of direct
Federal aid, probably including some
new form of subsidy for lower-income
private housing. In laying out his own
course, Mr.. Nixon could not have chosen
more divergent path. The purpose of
the national housing and urban policy,
in his view, should be to minimize"
Federal subsidies, and to use other
means to stimulate the effectiveness of
local governments and private enterprise
in solving the problems of metropol-
itan growth, transportation, downtown
decay and decent housing for everyone.
On the touchy question of Federal
urban renewal grants, the Vice President
was something less than clear. Outright
grants should be made in some cases,
he said, and local areas should have
greater freedom in their use. But "new
criteria" should be set to determine the
aid, and he suggested that some projects
can pay for themselves through the
imposition of new taxes. Other Federal
assistance, he added, might take such
forms as liberalized credit and greater
f1exibility in the interest rates on gov
ernment-inSured loans. For the most
part, however, the Nixon approach was
that the major Federal contribution is
to set the guide lines for unified"
program at all levels of government,
with the details to be worked out later
by strengthened housing admins

Less Rides-More Profit

The D. C. Transit Systems own es-
Inmates constitute such an indictment
Of its latest fare-raiSe request that it
hardly seems possible the company
really hopes to get it.
With the proposed increase In the
price of tokens, company profits would
rise to an all-time highland the num-
Der of transit trips would drop Sc mil
lion year, almost per cent of the
total D. C.. Transit business. What kind
of public utility policy is thisP
An estimated 12-million passenger
trips already have been lost as a result
of the fare raise granted last March.
This presumably will be a continuing
loss, an addition to the Sc million new
ones. We have no idea, translating the
trips into actual passengers, how many
more automobiles this would crowd onto
city streets, or how much downtown
business might be lost simply because
trips were not made. In any event, the
number would be worth worrying about.
For the transportation policy of the
Washington area today, embryonic as
it is, is aimed entirely in the direction
of increasing transit-riding, not dis
couraging it.
With the requested fare raise, fur
thermore, D. c. Transit's net operating
income would substantially exceed the
Al per cent of gross operating revenues
which the Public Utilities Commission
only six months ago ruled was a "rea-
sonable" yield. This is not to say some
relief is not due the company. Labor
costs-the direct result of an ultra
liberal labor contract the company
signed last year--undoubtedly are up.
And if the company estimates are right,
its return next year under present con-
ditions would amount to only 90 per
cent
Obviously, however, none of these
figures should be taken at face value,
and that is why the P. U. C. wisely re-
cessed its hearings until October IS. BY
then, commission experts should have
an analysis of all the figures, not only
those representing the company's posi-
ton but those relating to alternate pos
Sibilities of dealing with the fiscal prob
lem. And whatever it is, the eventual
solution should not work to discourage
tranSit-riding-an effect so obviously in
vited by the initial presentation Of the
company.
