However, Washington is on her

Having sold the famous old
house where pOliticking was as

apartments to make one huge, cir

PerIe's In Whirl
BY JEAN SPRAIN WILSON
AP NeWsieatures Writer

Perle Mesta is a newcomer on
Jackie Kennedy's crowded b a d.
wagon, but she's there neverthe-
less. And she's back in the swing
of things as Washington's Hostess
with the Mostes."
Indeed, the capital crowd is in
a tissy over Mrs. Mesta's so-called
triumphal return and the reported
end to her feud with rival party
giver Gwen CafritZ.
Nothing, not ever Mrs. Mesta's s
insistence that she has never left
Washington and has not been quar-
reling with Mrs. Cafritz, daunts
this in the least.
AS for Jackie, well, the ex-mins-
ter to Luxembourg has as much
right to change her mind about
people as she has to change the
spelling of her name, or her poll
tics.
New Ways
The heiress of the Skirvin hotel
family from Oklahoma was born
Republican and Pearl. But in later
years after her oil rich machinery
manufacturer husband Georg e
Mesta died, the widow decided to
mark a distinct change in her life
by writing her checks in favor of
the Democratic party, and signing
them Perle.
Although Perle stuck to this
spelling, she switched her allegi-
ance to Richard Nixon during the
last Presidential election. During
this heated campaign wide publici-
ty was given to Mrs. Mesta's con-
Germ that a young bouffant-haired
girl who sometimes went bareleg-
ged and enjoyed the Sinatra clan
might take over the White House.
Eyes, / was worried" candidly
admits the extensively dressed ma
tron with iron gray hair and lively

such a tremendous job.
but she's matured. She's grown
up practically overnight" Mrs.
Mesta adds, with a tone of amaze
ment. Being a First Lady is a
great responsibility and l think
she's doing magnificent job. I'm
really very pleased"
Summer White House!

hopeful that the Kennedys might

Trade Bill

Continued from Page D the administration as the heart of the bill.
 This West European area, with it's rapidly rising standard of liv- ing, is envisioned as vast new field for sales of American con- surner goods.
 These are the major provisions of the bill:
 A flveyear extension of the Re- elprocal Trade Law to June 30, lso :, the longest extension in the zo-year-old history of the law
 4 new 50 per cent general tariff cutting authority, making total of 9o per cent that duties could have been slashed since the first law passed under former Secre- tary of State Cordell Hulrs aus pices.
 Power to negotiate for the com plete elimination of duties on items for which the United States and the Common Market account for 80 per cent of world trade.
 A broad new program of ad- justment assistance for industries and workers harmed by imports including weekly allowances for jobless employees which would be much higher than regular unem- ployment compensation.
 The authority to cut tariffs to zero and the adjustment assistance provisions are features of trade legislation never enacted before.
