While the author would
not have chosen that phrase
she had made her point. In
her book she describes the
various kinds of baths and
showers which can be taken
for rest, health, and special
glamour as we'll as for clean
liness. Her special advice as
regards bathing for beauty,
is to soak In a tub Of warm
water, scrub briskly with a
brush and be lavish with the
soap.
Paralee Nichols comments
on the Importance Of clean
clothing are equally firm. To

According to DR.. Theodore
G. Krauss Of the Meyer Me-
mortal Hospital In Buffalo,
N. Y, the average woman is
more apt to take q couple Of
showers a day than she is to
take one relaxing bath q day.
He strongly urges women to
return to the habit of tub
bathing because Of its value
In easing tensions and re-
laxing.
I noticed that Paralee
Nichols agrees in her book,
How to Achieve Inner
Beauty and Outer Charm"
publisher, Hearthside Press,
New York City. While she
considers inner beauty vital
not only to a rich happy life,
but also to physical lowell
ness, she does not neglect the
less spiritual aspects Of at
tractiveness.
Since beauty is also highly
dependent on good grooming,
Miss Nichols stresses the i'm
portance of bathing to phys
ical loveliness. She mentions
that while teaching charm to
Brownie Scouts she tried to
encourage their thoughts
about cleanliness by asking
them how to prepare for a
party. When the girls listed
only dresses, shoes, and jew
elry she asked, But what
happens II you have all these
things and forget to take a
bath?". One youngster an

mates listed as escapes were criminals,
committed to the hospital either under
the Durham rule or some other provision
for dealing with criminals.
If st. EliZabeths needs more staff
to supervise criminal inmates properly
as its officials claim-more staff should
be provided. The Rollins case and the
high percentage of other criminal escap-
eeS, however, constitute an absolutely
outrageous situation.
st. ElizabethS Of course is essentially
a hospital-and good one. But as the

they are no longer menaces to society,
where is the protection for the public?

In a letter on this page, Attorney
Harry ]. Ahern accuses The Star of
unfairly criticizing st. Elizabeths Hos
pital for not exercising greater restraint
over Eugene William Rollins, who walked
away from the hospital grounds and is
now charged with numbering Arlington
automobile salesman Leon Tatelman.
Mr.. Ahern calls upon us to apologize"
to officials Of the hospital.
After reviewing his letter, the cir
cumstances Of the case, and the news
stories which have followed, we see
nothing whatever to apologize for.
The history Of the Rollins case re-
cited in Mr.. Ahern's letter was well
known to us. Its details were printed
fully In The Star last Sunday. The de-
tails which concerned us revolved around
his recommitment to the hospital on
June 10, 1862, under the Durham rule,
after his acquittal Of robbery charge
on grounds of insanity. Was this man,
known as a police fighter and hater,"

Hospital authorities are quoted as saying
that Rollins had responded to treatment
after his second commitment-but not
sufficiently for him to be discharged.
Yet the fact is that Rollins, with
nothing to restrain him, did stroll away
from the hospital on March l3, only a
few days after he had received ground
privileges. At the last count, moreover, a

hemisphere free Of furthaR
Soviet contamination.
The Dominican Republic
appears ready and willing to
take care Of this situation by
invading Haiti-but the Do
minican Republic is being re-
strained, again In difference
to the holy doctrine Of mon
intervention"
The Time and the Place
The logic Of all these cir
cumstances points inevitably
to one conclusion. This Is the
time and this is the place for
the United States to repudi-
ate, courageously and openly,
an outdated concept which
forbids Intervention" by the
anti-Communist forces In
the West, but condones md
even supports Intervention"
by the Soviet Union, working
through local Communists.
The United States cannot
tolerate another armed Com
munist regime In this hemi-
sphere, even II this should
mean direct military action
by us. The hemisphere is al
ready in chronic danger-and
the Kennedy administration
in domestic difficulties-be-
cause of the presence in Cuba
Of a Soviet base. Another such
base in this hemisphere would
be Observation-Disclosures
for the safety of this hemi-
sphere and unthinkable for
the administration If 1t ex-
poets to continue to lead this
country after 1864.
In peril, too, is the OAS.
For it, the clock is striking
midnight. Continued inaction
will forever brand the OAS as
a paper tiger, for sure, a
paper tiger to which no ad-
ministration could dare con-
tinue to intrust an ultimate
responsibility for this hemi-
sphere, which actually be-
longs to the United States
and which cannot forever be
avoided by the United States.
In the North Atlantic Al
lance we do not leave the

ton in Berlin to any debat-
ing society. Why should we
leave the defense Of the most
basic of all positions, the very

debating society which is the

made to order for Commu-
mist infiltration?

Most suburban officials, and most
residents, recognize that their areas are
tied culturally and economically to the
District Of Columbia. A vital, exciting
central city nouriSheS the suburbs just
as the human heart nouriShes the hu-
man body. This relationship is a part
Of the dynamicS Of every growing metro
region. Every once In a while, however,
there is an inclination in the suburbs to
see only the competitive side of this
picture, and to suggest, in these terms,
that what is good for Washington, D. c.,
must surely be bad for its peripheral
areas.
Such suggestions were voiced by
several witnesses at the recent public
hearings on the proposed general plan
to guide future growth in Montgomery
County. The Montgomery Citizens
Planning Association, in an analysis Of
the testimony, was sufficiently per-
turbed on this point, in a report to the
Maryland National Capital Park and
Planning Commission, to comment:
We hope you will take a very hard
headed look at the relation between Mont
gomery County and the District OF Colum-
bia-upper as well as lower county. Whatever
the history Of the county might have been
had the Seat Of Government remained in
Philadelphia or New York, we have been living
for some time with the fact that the Seat
Of Government is in Washington. No good
will come OF any approach to planning for the
development Of the county that does not
recognize that we are part OF the Washington
Metropolitan Region. that the District OF
Columbia is the center OF that region. and
that that center is the source OF income and
many Of the cultural attributes OF Montgom-
cry County.
This is warning that the area
Planning Commission, which is now In
the process Of re-evaluating It's general
plan, should heed. Suburban communi-
ties have technical right to make their
own decisions on transportation and
land-use controls, on the types OF devel-
opment which they elect to encourage
or discourage. But they should do so
within a framework Of general regional
agreement. To neglect or ignore the
problems Of the central city would be as
senseless for the whole area and, in the
long run, as self-defeating, as stabbing
oneself In the heart.

The Doctor StuYs

Despite all the rumorS about his
imminent overthrow and his plans to
flee to Europe, President Francois Du-
Waller Of Haiti is still very much alive
and kicking in Port-au-Prince. Indeed,
although his position is tenuous at best,
he has called rare "preSs conference"
to inform the world that he has no in
tention whatever Of relinquishing his
deSpotic rule.
Thus, in a euphemiStic style that
he may have acquired during his stu
dent days at the University of Michigan,
he has declared that II wish to assure
our friends in the Western Hemisphere
that Haiti will continue under my ad-
miniStration as peaceful nonaggreSSive
nation with its own development" What
friends? The fact is, of course, that DR..
Duvalier-whoSe government" is per-
Sonal dictatorship of the most noxious
kind-haS precious few supporters in
any Of the Americas. On the contrary,
If poll were taken, the results undoubt-
edly would show hemisphere public
opinion overwhelmingly in favor of his
downfall
Yet, though an end to the Duvalier
tyranny is eminently desirable, the Hal
tian people themselves 600 per cent of
them illiterate) seem generally indif-
ferent to the situation. Actually, in
their more than $50 years of "inde-
pendence," the best government they
have had-the only one offering sta
bility and a measure of prosperity
has been that of the 19-year United
States Marine occupation, which ended
in 1884. Latin America, however, would
not tolerate the restoration Of that
type of rule, relatively good though it
was. So II Dr. Duvalier falls one Of
these days, as he well may, who will
take over?
When 1t comes to answering this
question, everybody is vague. But there
are two possibilities: ~ Responsible
leaders of the Haitian army might be
able to establish an incorrupt, benevo-
lent dictatorship. Or (2) the Organiza-
ton of American States might move in
with an international regime chartered
to lead the country out of chaos toward
hteracy, economic stability and effec-
tive Self-rule. But let's not kid ourselves.
This may be only sweet dream in the
nightmare of Haiti's realities.

No Silent Sprinq'?

When the final word Is heard on
the pesticide controversy, there will be
good reason to remember: (1) Miss
Rachel Carson, who built fire under
the country and (2) the Presidents
Science Advisory Committee, whose re-
port, it now seems safe to presume, has
Lit a fire under the Government.
The report is just out, but already
President Kennedy has ordered Gov
ernment agencies to change their
thinking and methods on the testing,
research, regulation and control Of
chemical pesticides. II carried out, the
new order of business will be: First,
the protection of human, animal and
bird life; second, the destruction Of
insects.
Miss Carson, 1t will be recalled,
awakened the Nation with her Silent
Spring." the story Of birds and fish
dying with the insects, and the implicit
peril to mankind-a story, by the way,
that The Star was pleased to Serialize.
Now the committee, giving Miss Carson
full credit for arousing the public, has
convincingly backed her up.
First, it has all but demanded that
Government agencies must stop the
wholesale spraying of large sections for
insect eradication, when a more con-
servative and less dangerous control
method could be used. It has cenSured
the Department Of Agriculture and the
Food and Drug Administration for
placing more emphasis on a chemicals
effectiveness than its safety. 1t has
recommended wide range of studies
to gradually do away with persistent
peSticideS," or those which remain toxic
for years after spraying. There will be
continuous studies of the effects Of
pesticides on the air, water, soil, man,
wildlife and fish.
Perhaps most gratifying to Miss
Carson will be research In a direction
she has espoused-"non-chefnical con-
troll methods such as the use of at
tractants and the prevention of repro
duction."
On the basis Of customary progress,
1t must be said that Miss Carson is
setting some kind of record for results.
One congressional hearing is in progress,
others are scheduled on the Presidents
proposals to toughen up the manufac-
turing and marketing laws. 1t may be,
thanks to Miss Carson, that there will
be no Silent Spring." after all.
