Shop for a new home when
the weather is badl One reason
IS that home developments draw
few people on cold, snowy, or
rainy days. Those who do go out
can spend more time looking
through the model home and
talking with the builder. They
also get a better check on in
sulation, heating efficiency, and
roofing under these severe
weather conditions. Besides that,
a home bought in winter can
be ready for delivery in late
Spring, the best time to move.
Looking for an unusual gift
to give next time you go to n
baby shower? Give the prospec-
tive mother your own dinner
gift certificate. Here's how it
works: when the mother and
baby come home from the hos
pital, take the family a hot din
ner ready to eat, and leave. That
first night home is hectic no
matter how well organized the
household.

Surprisingly, water is the most
widely used ingredient in all cos
metics. Water is often thought
of as too drying for the COM
plexion. That's true Of hard
water, but not Of soft water, ac-
cording to The Lindsay Com
pany, manufacturer of the au-
tomato home water softener.
The softness and purity of wa
ter in soap, creams, or shampoos
will largely determine their eff
fectiveness on your skin and
hair. Many creams as a result
use soft water rather than oils.
That is why they're called
moisture creams"

Laos Coalition
BY EARL III. VOSS
Star Staff Writer

Thailand'S Premier Sarit
Thanarat has thrown his sup
port behind the United States
effort to establish a neutral,
independent Laos under a coali-
ton government, American Of
ticials reported today.
Previously the Thai strong
man had been regarded as the
strongest foe of admitting left
lists into the cabinet of Laos.
In a three -cornered confer
ence on the Thailand border
with Laos, Marshal Sarit re-
portedly told his nephew, Laos
Strongman Gen. Phoumi NoSa-
van. it is unrealiStic to expect
the present government can
retain control of both the de-
fense and interior ministries.
The third man at the meet
ing repeatedly was Averell Har-
riman, Assistant Secretary of
State for the Far East.
So far, there has been no
indiction Gen. Phoumi intends
to modify his demands for the
defense and interior ministries
to be held by the rightist fac
ton in the proposed left-cen-
ter-right coalition cabinet.
His refusal to bulge has
prevented n eutraliSt Prince
Souvanna Phouma from form
ing the coalition regime.
Mr.. Hartman was reported
from Southeast Asia to have
expressed hope that Gen.
Phoumi eventually would
change his position, but there
has been no indication his
uncle, the strongman in Thai
land, had told him it was un-
realistic to hold out for the in
terror and defense portfolios.
Informed sources here are
annoyed that Gen. Phoumi has
refused to explore possibilities
for sharing the No. and No. z
jobs in the defense and inte-
rior ministries so that a system
of checks would prevent a
runaway" by whatever fac
tion captured the important
top jobs.
Gen. Phoumi once insisted
he would not deal with Prince
Souvanna Phouma, Premier
designate, but recently has in
vited his rival to talks on the
occasion of a visit by former
French President Vincent Au-
riol.
( Thai Marshal Sarit did not
60 into details of how a Laotian
cabinet might be organized.
Premier Sarit's foreign minis
ter, Thanat Khoman, recently
visited Washington and OBJ
tanned written assurances
from Secretary of State Rusk
that the United States would
react Immediately if Thailand
were attacked by Communist
forces. The Thai move to per-
suade Gen. Phoumi to accept
the coalition government may
have a connection with the
success of the Thai foreign
minister's visit here.
American officials acknowl-
edge that even with a coalition
in Laos the difficulty of pre-
serving neutrality would be
enormous.
