NEW YORK, Oct. IL (AP).
Mrs. Ngo Dinh Nhu says
she is the official leader of
more than half the popula-
ton of South Wet Nam
namely, the women.
II am officially the leader,
up to now unchallenged, of
:. the women" she told a
group of students yesterday
at Fordham University.
Mrs. Nhu, whose brother
in-law is President of her
country, has organized a IL
million civilian army of
women welfare workers and
an auxiliary army of women
military officers.
Of the women she leads,
Mrs. Nhu said:
I'VE are the deciding fac
tors of victory. They have
to have us on their side to
win. My own position is very
strong and it is not all be-
cause of my brother-in-law. Z"
Mrs. Nhu, criticizing what
she termed unjust attacks on
the present regime, said her
government had been treated
as if I'VE are the dogs that
must be drowned because we
are mad"
She was accompanied on
her trip on campus by her
daughter, lie Thuy. 10.
Mrs. Nhu. a Roman Cath

she had been misunderstood,
she added, "it'S absolutely

President Kennedy yester-
day accepted the final report
of his Commission on the
Status of Women, and la
beled it "a legacy in a
very real sense" of Mrs. Flea
nor Roosevelt.
The former First Lady
served as chairman of the
commission until her death
last Novem Der. Yesterday
was chosen as the day to
present the report because
october II was her birth
date.
The 86-page report, which
was released yesterday morn
ing, m kes a wide-ranging
survey Of women's position in
the country today, and pro-
poses a long list of improve
ments. 1t was presented to
the Chief Executive in cere-
monies in the White House
East Room.
Il tn k this is an ex-
treme ely vital matter with
which we are dealing" the
President told about $50 par
Elephants in the commissions
work, who were present for
the ceremonies.
There used to be a story
that a civilization could be
judged on how it treated its
elderly people. But I think it
can also be judged on its OPP
portunity for women" Mr..
Kennedy declared.
Lists Main Areas
The President said he
thought concentration should
be focused ION two or three
main areas" in the report,
and singled out the follow
ing:
/. 81 think we have a great
obligation to the mass Of
women who work . so that
they can m aintain them
selves, their homes, their
husbands, their children,
make sure that their children
are protected.
2. I'VE have an obligation
to the skilled, the trained,
the unusual women. I see
thousands of women getting
out of colleges every year
and I wonder what happens
to all these skills. What con-
tribution do they make?
What chance do they have to
make full use Of their pow
ers?
ITO the Greeks" Mr.. Ken
nedy continued, ITO find

NEVER KNOW
WHAT WOMEN
ARE UP TO

Vice President Lyndon B.
johnson, asked at the White
House to comment on the
report Of the Presidents
Commission on the Status
of Women, said it is "just
one more Of the harvests
from the hand and heart of
Eleanor Roosevelt"
Odgen Nash once said
much the same thing as is in
the report, the Vice Presi-
dent suggested, in a poem
which went as follows:
81 rise to salute the feminine
ser,
You neUer knoD Dhdt they're
up to ner,
You neUer can tell If a lady
is going
To rock a cradle or build a
Boeino.

Friendship Grew
The two mems friendship
blossomed after that, helped
along by Mr.. Gamers admir-
alton for a stemwinding
speech the Governor made at
the re-enactment.
Ever since. Mr.. Garner has
wanted to do something for
my good friend Gov. AL
mond," but Mr.. Almond kept
h oldin g him off while the
judgeship matter was pend
ing.
Last night the time was
right. Besides, all the Gov
ernor's friends wanted to do
something, to show how hap
by they were for him." said
Mr.. Garner, who confessed
he was pleased as punch at
the large turnout.
Even some Byrd machine
Virginians were present, Mr..
Garner said, though mot the
most dedicated ones"
No, he did not invite Sena-
tor Byrd to his party. Mr..
Garner said, shaking his
head slowly.
Almond did the right
to now. but I won't keep the
public schools closed. Go
ahead and cruelty me If you
want to.
Almond was right and
Byrd was wrong" the banker
said fatty. Byrd will never
forgive him. That's why Byrd
held up that judgeship. No
man likes to admit he was
wrong"

Magic Of Music variety prozraT
stared and directed b. FRED WsrinE.
All, for the dear remembered
days Of vaudeville and big
budget network radio music
shows. Fred Waring brings it
all back onstage at Constitu-
ton Hall with 16 singers, nine
Of them male, 81 instrument
talists. and q small fortune in
electronic sound equipment
and special lighting.
Musician and master show
man, Waring puts on a kalei-
doScopic program which has
something for everybody when
played straight, and something
for nearly everybody when
played strictly for laughs. He
warns his audience in a cur
tain speech that he and his
troupe believe that music is
entertainment, that it should
be fun, and last night it GER
tainly was.
With all that mass Of sound
equipment, the first act was an
aural mess unconscionable for
q show directed and produced
by radio veteran Waring. Large
chunks Of the choral numbers
were lost, the over-miked piano
drowned out both orchestra
and singers, solo mikes did not
work or worked in pathetic
imbalance. This condition
cleared up after the intermis-
sion, and 1t is a tribute to his
reputation that an audience
which more than half filled
the hall stayed on to see it
accomplished.
The funny stuff was by far
the best of the evening. A folk
song group kidded the pants
off the material as we'll as the
vast horde Of commercial folk
niks who have arisen to profit
by the craze. A jazz group did
the same thing for material
that has remained current
through periods from two-beat
through third stream.

marched down the steps of
the ballroom and up the CEN

The spotlight then CEN

been expected to attend the
gala at the Sheraton-P ark
Hotel, with their wives, and
had been included in two
dinner parties beforehand.
No reason for their abb
sence was given other than
they were detained by bust
ness" but late afternoon
news reports stated the Pres
ident was comforting with his
top military advisers on the
crisis involving Soviet troops
holding two United States
Army conveys at a Berlin
checkpolnt.
When VIP guests were in
troduced at the start of the
ball, it was announced that
Attorney General and Mrs.
Robert Kennedy also could
not be there. But the Presi-
dents brother and his wife
arrived about an hour later
and joined one of two tables
hosted by Undersecretary of

The press of his duties ap-
