service party scene over the
weekend.
On Saturday night both
the Chief of Naval Operations

son and the Vice Chief of

turn at a charming recep-
ton given by the Besson

mother. Mrs. Frank S. Bes-
son, jr., as a welcome to her
new home in Army DiStaff

Air Force Brig. Gen and Mrs.
Milton B. Adams. Gen. and
Mrs. Besson have been here
four years and the latter two
couples have been stationed
here a year and a year-and-
a-half respectively, so the
occasion marked one of the
rare times when the family
could be together.
Many Of the guests at the
party were friends whom the
senior Mrs. Besson had
known during the years when
her husband, the late Col.
Besson, was stationed here
as an Army Engineer officer.
Other guests included old
friends of Mrs. Besson who
are already residents at Army

When they spoke of Ed
wardian elegance, it was not
a term reserved only for
women Of that period. it in
cluded elegant males.
Oscar Dodek is a man Of
today who would like to see
men return, not to the cloth
ing styles of another era, but
to the fastidiousness, indi-
viduality and good taste that
characterized mems clothes
Of that period.
Just back from Cannes and
Nice, Mr.. Dodek Of D. ].
Kaufman. was present at the
first showing of American
mems fashions shown abroad.
The Petrocelli styles, many
with a European inspiration
made in America, were shown
in conjunction with the
Cannes Film Festival. Mr..
Dodek was invited on THE
Flight to Fashion Festival"
along with other retailers
throughout the country
whose stores were cited for
their fashion achievement.
Interested spectators at the
fabulous midnight cham
payne buffet showing in
cluded Sophia Loren, Lau-
renee Harvey, Natalie Wood,
Mel FeTer, Danny Saval.
Warren Beatty and Kath-
crime Hepburn, just to name
a few Of the celebrities.
Mr.. Dodek participated In
a mems fashion seminar held
at the Carlton Hotel in
Cannes. He found this to be
a wonderful exchange Of
fashion ideas for all the
countries involved.
You know many of our
m ensw ear manufacturers
work very closely with mills
in Italy, France, and Switzer-
land" he told us. II do not
believe the only language Of
communication has to be dip
lomatic or social. The Ian
guage of business is one that
allows people to share a COM
mon meeting ground. too"
Men abroad are not self
conscious about talking FASH
ion he discovered. He was
stopped four times in Cannes
and asked about a black
and bronze sweater he was
wearing. Mr.. Dodek was de-
lighted to tell all who asked,
it was an Italian import
sweater he sold in Washing
ton. D. c.
Mr.. Dodek said during the
seminar it was brought out
that there is no question that
American menSwear Is the
be st-tailored ready-to-wear
in the world. There is much
more Of an adherence to the
normal figure, he believes,
and this is what European
men are now anxious to wear.
It's paradoxical, says he,
that many of our menswear
fashion ideas originate abroad
and then are Americanized.
This is the American influ-
ence we are returning to
them. Unkinking foreign
Rookie new ideas and making
them palatable to the Amer
lean male, is a talent our
menswear industry is devel-
oping more and more.

fashion showing at Cannes,
the audience he said

hair. 1t consisted of a sleeve
less coat worn over a vest
jacket for a distinguished
business or dress-up suit. It
was a vest-jacket alone when
entertaining at home. The
audience actually "cheered,"
this Mr.. Dodek remembered.
The one-button suit was
another style hit they enjoyed
over there.

lighted with the way the

the centennial of the Emanci.

THE most glaring form Of
discrimination in the United
States today is that against
Negroes, declared Assistant
Secretary Of Welfare James M
Quigley. Speaking at an all
day institute of the District
chapter of the American Fed
Grafton Of Government En-
ployes, Mr.. Quigley cited these
figures:
In 1860 the average non
white family income was SIS
per cent of the average white
family income compared to 81
per cent in 1852.
The average non-white in
dividual income had declined
from 50 per cent in 1852 to 81
per cent in 1860 of the average
white individual income.
The Negro unemployment
rate, according to a recent
study, was "a per cent while the
overall rate was only 7 per cent
Other Points
Mr.. Quigley said that al
though the Negro is unquestion-
ably earning more now than Re
was in 1852, his relative posi-
ton has deteriorated.
Other speakers at the Gov
ernment employees union lnsti-
tute at the Presidential Arms
spoke of other types of dis
elimination.

Federal workers as we'll as the
state of their morale.
AS part of a general ques-
tionnaire being mailed to 10000
voters in Mr.. Broyhills dis
trict, Federal employees are be-
ing asked: How would you
rate the morale of employees in
your agency?" The employees
are asked to check one of three
boXes-goo medium, poor. A
blank is provided for the name
of the agency concerned. The
employe, however, does not have
to sign his name or otherwise
identify himself on the ques-
tionnaire.
Another portion states that
it is Mr.. Broyhill's intention
Ito work strenuously for a per-
centage pay raise for Federal
and postal employees" Then it
asks if this should "be accom-
panied by a similar effort for
a thorough revision of the basic
Federal employe pay schedules. "
Another question asks (Which
of these proposed changes in
the Federal retirement system
do you think deserves the
highest priority for considera-
ton by Congress-" and then
asks employees to check one of
four alternatives: Full annuity
after 30 years of service re-
gardlesS of age, full annuity
after Is years service regard
less OF age, reduction from go
| to SIS of the minimum age
limit for early retirement with
out lowering annuity per-
centage factors, and increaS-
ing annual percentage factors
for computation of retirement
annuitieS.
The final employe question
is also a check-one-of -four al
ternativeS inquiry. 1t says that
aside from the retirement
system and a pay raise, which
of the following Federal en-
ploye legislative proposals dc
you think deserves the most
immediate consideration by

listed are increased promotiona

debris that buried Ranrahirca
and its neighboring villages and

So the doctors and nurses

Health Minister uard @

Of the scene, gave the estimate
of $500 to $500 dead and said,
The tragedy has been total"
So far. he said, authorities
have found only two survivors
from the 500 inhabitants of
the hamlet of Saccha, 10 from
Yanama's 100, none from Hua-
raScucho'S 300.
In Ranrahirca, where the
mayor earlier reported so sur
vivors from a population of not
quite 500. the health minister
said, THE tragedy is COM
plete."
These and other settlements
were in the path scooped by
the avalanche which thundered
nine miles down the canyons
of Mt. HuaScaran.
So far only 100 bodies have
7 been recovered. The minister
said he doubted if more than
100 or $50 more would be
found.
More than 20 years ago when
a similar avalanche struck

bodies were recovered though
the dead were estimated at
