The
Rambler
Fails to Meet
Angel of Deuth
By GEORGE KENNEDY


Now is the time that mush-
rooms and puffballs appear
in the morning on the lawn.
They are delicious. The
Rambler gets out barefoot in
the dew and picks a quart
or two. This in spite of his
cheating: He eats quite a
few raw-like a kid picking
berries.
That's the way to examine
their full and individual
flavor.
Home from work in the
evening, he Sautees them
with butter and bit of onion.
Then he has to eat them all
by himself.
You will get sick, you will
die before morning." Mrs.
r. exclaims.
Her concern is unSatisfac-
tory. The Rambler eats his
mushrooms and puffballs.
Then he lays him dowH to
sleep.
And prays the Lord his soul
tDtH keep,
II he should die before he
tDdke
But he awakes in the
morning. If he has any
troubles, they are not from
mushrooms.
This lack Of faith, this
ridiculous fear on his fam
ily'S part, has bothered him
a little.
So when he noticed that
the annual mushroom walk
would take place in Rock
Greek Park on the last Sun
day in September, he joined

Wise Use of Leisure
Is Urged by Speaker

A wise use of leisure time
may play an important part
in determining the Nations
future, Chairman Laurance S.
Rockefeller Of the Outdoor
Recreation Resources Review
Commission said yesterday.
Addressing the opening ses-
sion of the National Recrea-
ton Congress in the Shoreham
Hotel, New York Gov. Nelson
Rockefeller's brother said rec
reation in the outdoors can
help foster the national
strength.
He declared that, if the new
leisure gained by labor-man-
agement progress. advanced
technology and accumulated
capital is wasteful and frivo-
lous, America will be the

THIS" he said" is a
cousin of the death angel,
amanita casearia, or Caesars
mushroom. 1t was such a
favorite with the emperorS
that 1t was a crime to eat 1t.
It was to be brought to Cae-
Sar. One of the emperors
died while feasting on it. 1t
is thought his empress mixed
a few of the other type OF
amanitaS, the death angels,
in the dish. They look very
much alike"
A boy brought him another
mushroom.
This" he said" is one Of
the Lactarii. Probably lac
terius delicious. You see you
can squeeze a milk out of 1T.
None are poisonous, but some
leave a bitter taste in the
mouth"
He squeezed a few drops of
the milk on his tongue,
closed his eyes and his mouth
while he had the flavor
under consideration, then
he made a face, turned
around and spat it out.
Nibbling them raw, the
Rambler sampled several
mushrooms and puffballs
which Mr.. Stevenson said
were edible. Some had un-
usual flavor and left a bitter
taste.
Mr.. Stevenson said that
mushrooms-he never used
the term toadstools-that
crop out on your lawn are
edible with a very few ex-
ceptions. Look for the pink
gillS.
The most deadly muSh-
rooms, like amanita phal-
loides, grow in the woods.
We did not encounter 1t.
I hope we passed it by.

said these virtues had served

HE ARRIVED a little late.
About 40 persons, men and
women about equal, with a
few children and an infant
in arms, were standing about
the lecturer just outside the
Trail Center on Beach drive
near Military road.
This has been a rather
good year." he was saying,
Il have only been routed
out Of bed a couple of times.
Ordinarily when a person
has taken poison, one way
or another, the physician
knows the poison and is able
to prescribe a specific anti
dote.
But there are more than
1000 species Of the muSh-
room. Some Of them are
poisonous. I always ask how
long ago it was that the vic
tim ate mushrooms. The
answer is usually Eight or
nine hours
MY answer then is that
II the mushroom was the
angel OF death, or amanita
phalloides, there is nothing
to do. Might save a person
after one or two hours by
the usual methods of elimi-
mating poisons. But after
eight or nine hours there Is
nothing to do but to await
death.
"Amanita phalloides grows
all over this continent. II
we are lucky we will come
upon it in our walk through
the woods"
We crossed the bridge to
the bride path across Rock
Creek and started to walk
downstream.

youngsters, brought speci-

Playing Into Khrushchev's Hands

read his comments to the
Communist press that a
Democratic President would
be better for the Russians in
1861 than q Republican.
One also doesn't like to see
efforts made in Congress to-
day to publicize military in
formation about our missiles
or about our system of hand
ling U-2 flights at the very
time that Nikita Khrushchev
is engaged in a crusade of in
suits against the President
of the United states. No gov
ernmental censorship of the
press need ever be imposed,
but self-reStraint can be i'm
posed by conscience, and a
feeling Of patriotism can be
engendered. so that all con-
cerned would forgo opportu-
mites to publicize things that
for military reasons should
remain secret.
There will be plenty of
chances between now and
election day in November for
Democratic Party speakers to
rake the administration over
the Goals for various things.
national and International.
But there is a wrong time
and a right time for such
criticism. When Nikita Khru-
shchev and the Moscow radio
were blaring forth their in
suits was certainly the wrong
time, and that's the point
this writer has endeavored to
make,
When a final decision has
been made. however, or a
negotiation has been COM
pleted. there is plenty of op-
portunity for criticism of the
results. This writer criticized
some Of the provisions of the
agreements made at the Yalta
conference when formally
submitted to Congress. He
criticized also the Korean
armistice agreement, not only
when President Truman ap-
proved its main provisions.
but when President EiSen-
hover, feeling bound by what
his predecessor had agreed
to, also approved the pact.
Discussion is always
healthy. The critics. however,
who give aid and comfort to
the enemy in a crisis do so
unwittingly and not deliber-
ately. It is the Judgment they
display, rather than their
loyalty. which is open to
question and subject to con-
demnation.

DAVID LAWRENCE

There is a good deal Of dis
cussion going on these days,
inside and outside Congress,
as to the propriety Of some
of the criticisms recently di-
rected toward President
Eisenhower with respect to
the collapse of the Summit
conference and the U-2 Incl
dent.
Republican leaders in the
Senate are saying it is mis-
take for Democratic presi-
dental candidates to be at
tacking President Eisenhower
while he is abroad engaged
in very important missions.
One hears, too, from de-
tenders of the Democratic
TRADES a cry that anyone who
questions the timing of the
criticism uttered by Demo-
cratic spokesmen is there
fore against all criticism
or in favor Of censorship of
the press by the Government.
One hears also the conven-
lent argument that two
wrongs really do make a right.
after all, and that certainly
those who are advocating
nonpartisanship today were
doubtless against any such
unity when Democratic Presi-
dents were in office.
This correspondent has
criticized and defended Presi-
dents from both parties.
Thus, for instance, the Re-
publicans in the United
States Senate on one occa-
sion signed a round-robin,
announcing to the world
that President Wilson would
not have the support of the
Senate for entry of the
United States into the League
of Nations. When this hap
pened at the time of the big
Summit conference in Paris
in 1919, after the end of
World War I, this writer
criticized severely the Repub-
lican action as undermining
the Presidents power to ne
gotiate in behalf of the
United States.
Similarly, in october, 1899.
just after World War II
broke out, this correspondent
again criticized the Republi-
cans for the partisanship
manifested against a Demo-
cratic President, Franklin D.
Roosevelt, and wrote as fol-
lows:

the vista of a winning Ken
nedy campaign which would
then mate the pair as Presi-

Leader, Mr.. johnson.
There are politicians as
well who find this hard to
imagine. 1t is the real basis
of Senator Johnson's strength
and not the less real for
being Intangible.
Senator Kennedy either
feels he is far enough ahead
Of Senator johnson not to
worry about it or possibly
that it is a sleeping dog he
should let lie. But his aides
have made it plain that Mr..
Nixon is not to be allowed
to pre-empt the role of the
candidate who can handle
the Russians.
The Senator is only four
years younger than the Vice
President but gives an i'm
preston of much greater
youth, which is in part physi-
cal, in part a matter of tenn
perament.
For some time Senator
Kennedy felt that one of his
tasks was to out-do Adlai
Stevenson as a preferred
national spokesman in foreign
policy. He now says he is
convinced Mr.. Stevenson
said too much, too soon,
about the U-2 disaster and is
the less formidable as a
result.

DORIS FLEESON

The Nixon versus Kennedy
campaign for the Presidency
is under way. Though neither
has yet been nominated, both
confidently expect to be and
are aiming their fire at each
other.
The Massachusetts Demo-
crat made the first move
with a long, carefully wrought
speech designed to prove
that he had a foreign policy
and that conversational abil-
ity was not enough. His OBJ
ject was to mar the image Of
Mr.. Nixon, the tough talker
who first drops Nikita Khru-
shchev's name and then
drops a blockbuster on it.
According to the polls on
which Senator Kennedy re-
lies. it is a popular image
and he is setting out to de-
molish it. The press had
been duly notified and
friendly Senators rallied
round with leading questions.
But the Vice President had
been forewarned and came
up with some campaign
strategy Of his own. While
the Senator he has widely
proclaimed as his Democratic
rival was talking, the Vice
President absented himself
from his duties as presiding
