Sometimes a woman will
sacrifice her individuality, her
personal happiness and that
Of her family, on the altar Of
domesticity. While a well-run
and attractive home and good
meals are of the greatest i'm
portance and are conducive
to the peace of the inner man,
the perfectioniSt housekeeper
may overdo her efforts in
these areas.
Because of her preoccupa-
ton with every detail Of
housekeeping, she may find
herself so tired that she neg
lects more important values.
It seems to me that it is
better to have less shine on
the floor and more laughter
In the air. and less elaborate
meals and more companion
ship.
The woman who is house
keeper, wife and mother, has
o tremendous job. If she is to
succeed in creating a gay,
relaxed and happy atmos-
phere, as well as an attractive
home. she will need the help
of household organization.
This does away with so many
small leaks in energy. Today
let me give you a few sugges-
tions.
Last-Ininute .dashes to the
grocery or the supermarket
take loads of energy. Some
women like to make out
menus for two or three days
at a time so that one shop
ping trip takes care of more
than one day. However, even
If you prefer marketing daily,
a master list of essential, gen.
eral supplies is a boon. Don't
wait until you are out of cof-
fee or flour or some other
supply, but place these on the
master list when you begin
to g-t low.
Some women find a bulle-
tin board in the kitchen most
helpful. On this they list the
items which are needed or
soon will be used. They also
use this board as a place to

and Prime Minister had agreed
that the Soviet idea of tri-
partite representation for So
Wet, Western and neutral ma
tions combined with the veto
power was a firm and strong
feature of Soviet diplomacy.
It was expected to be applied
to any international dealings
in which the Kremlin partici-
pates.
1t is the same theory Premier
Khrushchev first advanced at
the United Nations last Sep
tember when he proposed re-
placing Secretary General Dag
Hammarskjold with a three
man directorate.
The President and Prime
Minister still maintained hope,
however, that the Soviet Union
would relent on the test-ban
issue. They expressed deter
mination to keep on trying for
agreement and fixed no time
limit on the Geneva negotia-
tionS.
The two statesmen spent
Evening star., 1961-04-07

more time on the test-ban issue
and the painful consequences
OF failure in negotiations, do
nestle and worldwide, than
on any other problem they dis
.cussed during their cruise.
U. S. Test Decision Due
If the Geneva talks do fail,
President Kennedy would be
faced with a decision on
whether to order a resumption
OF nuclear testing by the
United States. Tests have been
under suspension for 21a years.
The possibility that Russia
may have cooled off on the
nuclear test ban issue was con-
sidered by the two leaders.
They noted that the SWarsaw
Pact powers communique men
toned the Soviet-bloc goal of
complete and general disarm-
ament" but made no mention
of tests.
Mr.. Kennedy and Mr.. Mac
milan also discussed the So

Wet use Of continued French
testing of nuclear weapons as
a propaganda issue. The Rus
slams could be preparing to
blame the United States and
Britain for causing failure of
the test ban negotiations by
using France as a screen to
continue their own nuclear ex-
periments.
The Kennedy Macmillan
talks were recessed today while
the British leader flies to Bos-
ton to speak tonight at the
Massachusetts Institute of
Technology.
Tomorrow he viii make a
farewell call at the White
House at l am, after which
the President and Prime Min
lister are expected to issue a
statement on their talks.

bright told reporters later the
Prime Minister had been ques-
toned about almost all major
foreign policy problems except
Red China, where there are
differences between the United
States and Great Britain.
The British leader defended
moves to bring pro-Communist
Pathet Lao leaders into coali-
ton Laos government as the
best alternative in a difficult
situation.
Mr.. Macmillan stressed the
necessity for a more modern
method Of handling balance of
payment problems and co-ordi-
mating the use of resources and
efforts in the Atlantic COM
munity.
The nations in the community
are now doing four times as
much business as 20 years ago
with only twice as much credit,
he told the Senators, and the
aim is to develop mechanisms
for enlarging credit facilities
to encourage further trade ex-
pansion.
Reserve System Analogy
The Prime Minister used the
analogy of the Federal Reserve
System in this country, which
pooled resources and rescued
individual banks from COM
plete dependence on their own
resources alone. Now something
comparable to the Federal Re-
serve System is needed in in
ternational finance, he said.
Coordination of central
bank activities has been one
method discussed by Mr.. Ken
nedy and the Prime Minister
in their talks here.
On the nuclear test prob
lem, Mr.. Macmillan judged that
Premier Khrushchev, while
conscious of nuclear-war dan
gers, has serious misgivings
about opening up his tradi-
tionally closed society to the
necessary inspection.
This is an extremely serious
decision for any Soviet leader
to face, the Prime Minister is
reported to have said, and Mr..
KhruShchev is reluctant to
make it.

The Honey FitZ is named for
the Presidents Irish immigrant
grandfather, a convivial man
who on a boating party would
surely have sung his favorite
song, Sweet Adeline." There
was no singing aboard his
nameSake its first time out.
The principal guest was British
Prime Minister Harold Mac
milan, and the cabin cruiser
was just a floating office.
No Fun, Either
Whereas the ordinary citizen
setting out for an afternoon on
the river looks forward to a
little fun, apparently none was
expected and none was had as
the Honey Fitz set sail in the
late afternoon sunlight on the
Potomac.
The Presidents idea in TAX
ing the Prime Minister was
simply a change of scene. He is
a seafaring man himself and
the Prime Minister represents a
nation which has ever been at
home on the water.
The President and the Prime
Minister drove alone in a White
House car to the Washington
Marina. They boarded the boat
accompanied by umerous
high-level aides equally bent
on business.
They set sail at $40.
Small Armada
The Honey Fitz was the lead
boat in a small armada con-
sisting of four press boats,
and a PIT boat with the num-
ber 109, the same as the Presi-
dents famed wartime boat,
called the Guardian.
There was no levity on board,
as far as everyone can tell. The
entire passenger list except for
the crew and a few press aides,
went below to the dining saloon
and got down to business.
The subjects were the same
as on land: Berlin, Laos,
Southeast Asia, disarmament,
nuclear test-ban.
The Prime Minister and the
President drank tea, according
to White House Press Secretary
Pierre Salinger.
The 14-mile trip to Mount
Vernon took about an hour
and 20 minutes, during which
apparently nobody enjoyed the
signs of early spring or other
points of interest along the
banks.
The arrival at Mount Ver-
non brought the participants a

of fresh air. The party went

Arlington's white teachers are

The executive secretary Of the
Virginia Education Association,
Robert F. Williams, has stated
that there is a strong likeIi-
hood that the Arlington Edu-
cation Association will be ex-

cation if it admits Negroes.
The Arlington group
amended its constitution five
years ago to make colored in
structors eligible for member
ship.
However, Richard Neal, ex-
ecutive secretary of the AEA
which represents some 1,100
teachers, said that none sought
entry. primarily because they
did not want to embarrass Ar
lington during the height of the
Statewide integration contro-
VerSy.
Earlier this month, white
teachers advocating admission
Of Negroes proposed the poll.
They have expressed the
hope that rather than act
against Arlington, the State
association will follow the same

the State regarding school de-
segregation.
