welcomed her to this long
awaiting National Capital.
Eliza. in the person of Diane
Todd, will linger here all sum-
mer, until September 8. She will
be the talk of the town as she
has been in an orbit of charm
that has reached from Mel
bourne to Moscow.
The subject Of all this con-
yersation will be the secret of
ELIAS uniqueness. If it were
not tactless to say so, this could
very well lie in the circumstance
that she is a girl who never
had a mother; only a father,
named Bernard Shaw. It is this
that may explain the invincible
freshness of Miss Doolittle; that
she is the offspring of an author
who retained an upstart heart
and mind into his own eos.
4
In the course of being trans
muted into the heroine of the
most delightful and cherishable
Of all musicals. Eliza inevitably
has had collection of talented
escorts. Among these, the
specials are Alan Jay Lerner
who wrote the book and lyrics
of her so believable fairy tale:
Frederick Loewe, who composed
the dazzling music; and Moss
Hart who directed both with
such elegance.
, And, of course, Herman Levin
who produced MY Fair Lady"
with such grace and taste and
fantastic profits.
! Let it be added quickly here
that none of these is a type
to let Eliza down. She still
ends up nightly as exquisitely
groomed and fierly triumphant
as ever, defiantly impervious to
any notion that her fame rests
upon the fact that she was
once Rex HarriSon's girl. Or
Julie Andrews character.
, Eliza. you see, climbed to a |
level well above the best of |
even the most uncommonly
talented humanity. That's the
sort to which Miss Todd be-
longs. and Michael Evans who
is heir to Mr.. Harrison, Hugh |
DempSter who is the current
Col Pickering, Charles Victor
who plays Alfred P. Doolittle,
and ever so many others.
Another "abovenesS" of MY
Fair Lady" is climates, includ-
ing the political one of Russia
from which the National the
ater's company has just re-
turned after an eight-week
tour.
1t is lovely to look at, de-
.lightful to hear, plays with
spirit, and permits only the
,wayward eye Of the congenial
,churl to mark a few travel
spots on the scenery.
Virtually all languages north
OF Afrikaans have been ex-
hausted in praise of My Fair
Lady" This is clearly the due
of a musical that has lasted
through four standing room
years in so many places and
survived a communications Sys-
tenn that has made it's every
word, note and infection, mat
ters Of universal knowledge.
Put this down, for want of a
better reason, to the fact of
Shaw's perversity; his inversion
Of the Cinderella (actually
Galatea) legend to make it
necessary for her to convert a
handsome, heartless egocentric
into the potential Prince Charm
ing who is perceptible only to
the IL vision of a gutterSnipe.
1t is this that inspires the
creators and performers of my
Fair Lady" and hypnotizes au-
diences with the conviction that
there is a Duchess under the
CRIME and tattered dress of a
Covent Garden flower girl.

The odds are mounting that

If you are among the self

businessmen, doctors, lawyers,

legislation will remove a glar-

In briefest summary, here's
the story, up-to-date.
Within a few weeks the Sen

Romney ExpIoins Sale
OfHis AMC Stock

He can pass the option If 1t
goes down.
Mr.. Romney said he was
given the opportunity to buy
$4,000 shares at 1886 per
share over five years. He said
he borrowed money and bought
20,500 shares.
The stock jumped to $50 per
share last month when Mr..
Romney sold. From the pro-
ceeds, he said, he paid back
the 100000 borrowed to make
the original purchase. paid his
capital gains tax and gave a

This left $430,000.

vidual can accumulate wealth"
Mr.. Romney explained. You
certainly can't do it these days
on salary alone"
Federal regulations forbid a
corporation officer from buying
and selling his company stock
within six months. Mr.. Rom
ney said that by July, when the
regulations are met, he intends
to buy the remaining 14,500
shares he is entitled to at the
1886 level. He also has chances
to exercise future options at a
higher price per share.
AS to AMOS future, Mr..
Romney said retail sales of
1860 Ramblers total 136.109,
compared with l02,556 this time
last year. Sales for the first 10
days this month were up 1874
per cent over 1859, he added.

DETROIT, Feb. II (AP).-
President George Romney, who
sold 10000 shares of stock in
his American Motors Corp. last
month for 100000 gross profit,
says he will sell no more this
year and intends to increase his
holdings.
Mr.. Romney told a news con-
ference yesterday he had sold
the stock to make money and
pay debts. He also said he in
tends to increase his holdings
above the $4,000 shares he had
at the first of the year.
Mr.. Romney emphasized the
sale in no way reflected a lack
of confidence in AMC.
"On the contrary" he said,
"the future of the company is
brighter today than at any
previous point in its history
and l VIII buy more stock as
soon as it is legally possible. !"
Some brokers said news of
the sale contributed to a de-
cline of AMC stock on the New
York Stock Exchange. The
stock has fallen $9.45 a share
in two days.
Mr.. Romney detailed the
finances involved in his trans
action. He said he came to
American Motors, maker of
Ramblers. in the early 1950s
and was given a bonus Of stock
options.
These options, common among
executives of big corporations,
give the holder right to pur-
chase company stock in the
future at a fraction less than
today'S price. The executive
makes money if the stock rises.

Florida and Senator Morton,
Republican of Kentucky. The
only new angle is that the
Smathers bill would become ef-
fective in 1861, a bit later than
the House bills effective date.
A careful survey indicates
that II the bill reached the
Senate floor today, it would
pass by a comfortable margin.
If it goes through, the self
employed individual who wants
to set up a pension plan will get
a tax break similar to that
which an estimated 10 million
employees under corporate pen
sion plans now enjoy.
If it goes through. a major
and Congratulated discrimina-
ton against the self-employed
will be wiped out.
If it goes through, financial
institutions of various types will
Immediately create retirement
funds and accounts for the
Self-employed. Many major
financial institutions are set
to go now.
Legislation to give equal
rights" to the self employed in
setting UP retirement plans is
inevitable. With the Admins
tration forecasting a fat budget
surplus and with the effective
date for the legislation put of
to 1861, the chances are the
brightest yet that the remain
ing opposition will crumble and
the bill will become law this
year.
