Washington and Spring
met head on yesterday.
Micol Fontana of Rome
previewed her Spring collec-
ton at Julius Garfinckel &
Co. even before the city in
which it was designed has
had a chance to see it.
On the last leg of a round
the world trip, Fontana
stopped over in Washington
and showed the Fontana
Spring 1862 collection.
Only the buyers in New
York have seen the collection
before this. Roman citizens
will have to wait until March
before they get the word
from Fontana.
The Italian couture group
just celebrated its 10th birth
day. But for 200 years a
Fontana has been putting
clothes on the backs of many
a chic Italian woman.
This Spring the more than
100 stores that carry Fon-
tana designs in the United
States, South America, Can
ada. and in various parts of
Europe will see such striking
fashion notes as the lovely
Italian fruit candy colored
prints. fabrics that have
drawnwork on them either in
fagotting or in fringed ef-
fects. and a lovely feminine
willowy silhouette in her
clothes.

Jakarta fascinated her.
Watching the making of batik
prints and learning how the
government keeps the price
well within reason for every
one to afford, was quite an
experience for her.
After a fast translation
from Mrs. Joan FRANCES of
the Fontana New York office,
who was also at the break
fast, it came out that every
one in IndoneSia makes a
batik and sends it to the gov
ernment which in turn then
distributes it, keeping the
price low enough for all to
afford"

son l year to make 212 yards
of batik." Micol mentioned.
Now a wonderful machine
like an iron sets the design

proclaimed batik creation to
be the "pettipoint of prints. !"
She feels the Orient has
much to offer the people in
the fashion world.
The woman who stages
shows around the world said
she "sitted down and saw a
fashion show in Jakarta that
featured the costumes from
various provinces and West

dress utilizing the batiks."

In the latter years of the

This school was one of the

Soon after the turn of the

found him petty. No member

With all the power he
achieved with his great lon
gevity, he never became a
dictator or sought to be one.
He led strongly, but he pre-
ferred persuasion. His vast
knowledge of each members
character and the political
imperatives of each House
district enabled him to tread
surefootedly what to a novice
would be an impenetrable
maze.
Washington sees many
men called great come and
go. Some leave lesser in re-
putation than when they ar
rived. Mr.. Rayburn has gone
on a high tide Of love and
adulation; he would like eS-
pecially the former.
He would like best Of all to
know what is absolutely true:
Other Speakers will for a
long time be measured by his

so acted. He will live long in

ness, the Speaker discussed it
with the bark off.
His reputation grew slowly
on its solid foundation of the
hard, dull tasks that keep a
nation strong. 1t was Frank
lin Roosevelt's decision that
a succession of what might
be called seniority Speakers
should be followed by a really
strong man. Behind the scenes
in the early New Deal days a
contest for majority leader
was arranged and the White
House m arsh aled all its
strength to see that Mr.. Ray
burn won it.
1t was soon seen that the
choice was perfect. Mr.. Ray
burn was likeable; he under
stood the art of politics;
being without a wife and
children, he gave the House
all his time and heart. With
out ever uttering a flattering
word, he got it across that he
loved the institution and its
members, warts and all.
BY the time he became
Speaker. he had the status
and the tools he needed to

Our Relations With the NeutruIs

in their own lands the Com
munist apparatus. which
often works in with oppo-
sition political parties. is
already somewhat dangerous
to the administrations IN
power.
It's a case of national
interest" in each instance.
Mr.. Nehru, who was educated
in Britain and knows the
Anglo-Saxon mind as well as
any statesman in Europe or
Asia, is afraid of the club
that Mr.. Khrushchev holds
over him through Peiping.
Any moment the Red Chinese
can start border trouble and
threaten India. So the In
dian Prime Minister proceeds
cautiously and tries to ap-
pear neutral. He, like Mar
shall Tito, goes along with the
Communists in the U.N., on
the theory that this is the
least expensive way to satisfy
the Kremlin and yet not run
too big a risk of alternating
the United States. But, un-
happily for Mr.. Nehru, the
American people can read
about all his doings. It's the
growth of a critical opinion
inside the United States that
caused Mr.. Nehru to come
here to fix things up. 1t ac-
counts for his many appear
ances on televiSion, his
speeches and interviews that
got wide publicity in America.
It's tough going, to be
sure. for the "neutrals" when
they try to play both ends
against the middle, and it's
tough for the President and
Secretary of State of the
United States. who certainly
cannot afford to break off
with these "neutrals" just be-
cause for the time being
they pursue mistaken pol
icies. 1t is a game that calls
for skilH and patience. 1t is
coincidentally helpful that
steady pressure is applied
through openly expressed
criticisms by the peoples of
free countries like America.
The objective, which is to
keep the "neutrals" from
being forced to become Com
munist satellites - if they
should have nowhere else to
turns being kept constant
ly in mind in London and
Washington. While outward
ly it sometimes looks as if
progress isn't being made,
the truth is that the cold
war" is a long-range opera
ton, and the scoreboard of
victories and defeats at a
given time isn't necessarily a
measure Of the eventual out
come.

Veteran Speaker EnnobIed His Office
And Left 1t Greater Than He Found 1t

The time has come to say
goodbye to Sam Rayburn, a
man who valued his place and
left it greater than he found it.
His successors will have to
find their own ways of max

the House powerful and hon

personal character, Mr.. Ray

full members are very often
much more interesting as
people than the more sought
after members of the Senate.
This was emphatically true
of Mr.. Rayburn. Any reporter
who enjoyed his confidence
knew more than other report

time. He was no sieveA and
had no use for easy popular
ity. He neither leaked nor

What do all these visits by
foreign dignitaries - Prime
Minister Nehru, among
others - really mean? Of
what value is the artificial
friendship" with Marshal
Tito of YugoSlavia, and what
do the lengthy conferences
here with several heads of
state in recent weeks amount
to? What is back Of it all?
These questions are in the
minds of many people in this
country as they wonder
whether the visits of high
officials from abroad and
the platitudinous professions
Of lofty purpose do any good,
and whether the United
States is being played for a
sucker" by the so-called
neutralS or "non-aligned"
countries.
But the truth is that it is
a game with high stakes.
While mistakes have been
made, the United States,
under the leadership Of
Presidents Eisenhower and
Kennedy, has actually pro-
ceeded with self-restraint,
caution and common sense in
handling most of the many
delicate situations involved.
Take, for instance, the
problem of India. President
Kennedy knows as well as
anybody else in the West
that India's delegation to the
United Nations has been aid
ing the maneuvers of the
Soviet Union, and that Krish-
ma Menon, the minister of
defense in Mr.. Nehru's cabi-
net. plays close to the Mos
COW regime-if, indeed, he
isn't a Communist himself,
as has been widely reported.
American public opinion
lately. moreover, has gotten
a bit fed up with Marshal
Tito. who also has been 60
ing along with the Soviet
Union in the U. NJ, though
accepting all the American
money and military planes
he can get. Several mem
bers of Congress have become
aroused over this. The furor
helps to impress the Yugo-
slav dictator-aS it does Mr..
Nehru-with the fact that,
while the Washington admin
istration can speak in the
friendliest terms and promise
help, the money has to come
from the American people
and be voted by the Congress.
So what has happened late
ly is that some recipients of
