PARASITIC Paris season
approaches its sacred month:
June!
Actually 1t has already be-
gun In the last 10 days of
May when everything started
at once. Celebrities are Drop
ping into town, the Paris
Fair opened and with it sew
eral other exhibits, and So
cial life is getting so intense
that even an idle person has
difficulties keeping up with
1t. The most fascinating of
the big stars in town is Bette
Davis, who came straight
from Cannes to assist the
Paris opening of What Ever
Happened to Baby Jane?"
Asked by a reporter If she
is still looking for a multi
millionaire husband over
sixty, she answered gaily:
"Oh no, there is only one
man over sixty in the
world, I love: General de
Gaulle."
Also from Cannes came
Gregory Peck, chased by the
young Parisians, in spite of
their new teenage idols. He
will soon be going down south
near the Spanish border to
shoot Behold a Pale Horse"
with Anthony Quinn.
From the States came
Sammy Davis jr. (of the Sim
atra-Lawford clam to star
in a big show at the Olym-
pia Music Hall. His perform
ance really began at the Orly
airport where he was dancing
and jumping just to please
the guys at the baggage
counter. And the photog-
rapherS, Of course!
Thirty-four countries are
participating this year at the
annual Paris Fair, running
from May 22nd to June 3.
While the commercial Sec
ton covers about 100 acres
OF the Paris suburbs, the
same organization opened
three exhibits right on the
Champs Elysees. One was NO

as fine arts.

Still the Old Pepper

In case ANYBODY has had other ideas,
1t should be noted that former President
Harry S. Truman has lost none of his
old peppery touch. He continues (unfor-
tunately. we think to needle his imme-
date successor in the White House. His
latest complaint against him, contained
In a letter to the editor of the Seattle
Post-1ntelligencer, is that General Ell
senhower mot Navy man, obviously
should have done better by the USS
Missouri, on whose decks General Mac
Arthur accepted the unconditional sur
render of the japanese.
Mr.. T, 1t seems, feels that this his
toric ship should not remain where Ike
sent ito the Bremerton Navy Yard in
the great State of Washington. The best
place for so great vessel, in Mr.. rs
judgment, would be Brooklyn, Norfolk
or San Francisco Perhaps so, but 1t
occurs to us that give 'em-hell Harry
ought to mellow a little (hasn't he?)
and smoke peace pipe with Ike. AS
for the Missouri It's place in history is
already firmly established; 1t needs no
special mooring place.

For Sale: BIoodhounds

From now until 10 am tomorrow,
the District Dog Pound will enjoy a
popularity usually reserved for upper
class kennels and dog shows. The
attraction at this halfway-house for
forsaken CANNES is squad" of blood
hounds, until recently detailed TO de-
tective duty at Lorton Reformatory.
Once the bane OF fugitive criminals,
the lop-eared, Sad-faced creatures have
met their match in the confusing scents
OF the sprawling city. Thus they have
been rather unceremoniously retired
and, in fact, are in the process OF being
sold TO the highest bidders.
Many dog lovers feel this is a
shabby reward for long years OF service
by such as Ann and Tony (the eldest at
nearly years. their slightly younger
buddies, Reds and Dixie (512 years..
George, closer TO years, and those
three unnamed youngsters celebrating
Jneir second birthdays one day after
the sale.
Most OF ALL there is concern whether
the animals will get the kind OF homes
and treatment they deserve. Some
citizens have expressed anxiety as 10
whether they might be purchased for
medical experiments. Many have APP
pealed TO the Commissioners, who are

law, they must dispose of the dogs by

write their offers on cards and place
them in boxes corresponding with each
Of the dogs. Tomorrow the boxes will be
opened and the high bidders announced.
There is no oral bidding, no way in
advance to determine the character of
the prospective owners.
So in way, 1t all becomes lottery,
and when a dog is led away, there is
no certainty to what kind of home. Or
to what kind of fate. 1t is a shame
these devoted public servants cannot
be guaranteed happy retirement. Is
there an 11th-hour solutionP In the
absence of one, every dog lover of ade-
quate means at least can make his
influence felt at sale time.

With great reluctance, no doubt,
an unidentified researcher apparently
has torn himself away from his hi-fi

revealing evidence. The burden OF II

suspected while their own sets were
probably in the shop for repairs) that
their neighbors we're completely phono-
graph-happy. II the figures may be
believed, the average hi-fi fan spun his
platters 547la hours last year, which
narrows down TO an hour and a half
a day. When one considers, in extern
sion Of this report, all the radio and Tv
decibels shifting the ear, It's a wonder
we all aren't spinning at 33l5 rpm.

Rules Victory

The much-touted fight" over the
size Of the House Rules Committee
turned out to be pretty much like the
recent Set-to between Sonny Liston and
Floyd Patterson. The administration
forces coaSted to an easy 235-to-196
victory-and apparently without the
arm-twiSting which characterized the
five-vote margin by which 1t won the
same battle two years ago.
Obviously, there was some wheeling
and dealing For example, all 10 men,
bers Of the Georgia delegation voted
with the administration yesterday. In
1851 only two went along And 1t will
be interesting to see whether Georgia's
Representative Landrum gets the seat
ne wants on the Ways and Means
Committee.
Whatever deals were made, however,
the fact remains that a majority of
the Southern Democrats stayed with
the administration, as did % Republi-
cans-Six more than in 1861.
Does this foreShadow smooth sailing
for the administrations legislative pro-
gram? We doubt 1t very much. In all
probability the President will find the
going Just as tough in this Congress
as IN the last. But at least the enlarge
ment Of the committee knocks down
one potential alibi for legislative failure.
Mr.. Kennedy had said that return
to a 12-member Rules Committee, as
opposed to IS, would mean the emas-
culation Of his program. We have never
believed there was much basis for this
contention. The House can get a vote
on any measure whenever a majority
wishes, regardless of what the Rules
Committee does or doesn't do. PreSum-
ably however, 1t will be somewhat easier
now to bring controversial measures to
the floor for action. If they should be
called up and then defeated, some new
excuse will have to be found. It will
not be possible to pin the blame on
Judge Smith and his "reactionary"
allies on the Rules Committee.

shocks of blast-off and re-
entry into the earth's at
moSphere.
The apparatus consists of
a narrow, rectangular steel
framework fitted with verti-
cal round rails between which
a sliding carriage shoots rap
idly upward, triggered by a
gas-driven piston. Mice, mon
keys and various objects have
been hurled upward to vari-
GUS distances within the
framework to find out what
happens to a body under vio-
lent propulsion and Just as
violent stopping.
The apparatus has been
given thorough tests with
animals. Both white mice
and squirrels have been test
ed. None. TO date. has been
permanently injured.
The tremendous shocks
created by a nuclear explo-
sion will be simulated In a
new Air Force laboratory now
nearing completion in New
Mexico.
Scheduled for early testing
Will be a shock isolation
system for an underground
ballistic missile site launch
control center. A full scale
launch control center weigh
ing more than rs tons will
be suspended in the labora-
tory for the shock tests.
Special Protection
Since a control center con-
tainS personnel and delicate
electronic equipment II must
be protected from the shocks
generated by a nuclear de-
tonation. The shock isolation
system provides this protec-
ton much as shock absorb
ers do for an automobile on
a bunny road.
But while a bumpy road
produces shock from Just one
direction, the shock from a
nuclear explosion comes from
several This makes Il neces-
sary completely 10 Isolate the
center because the surround
Ing ground may be displaced
up, down or sideways as much
as 3 feet by the shock
wave. The new facility is the
first OF It's kind In which
shocks OF this magnitude
from more than one direction
can be produced simultane-
ously.
