For all I care the old boy can get stuck in a chimney in Dcs

The one thing I'd like even
Santa Claus can't give. I want

older and from going away.
The girl is half past two, her

PAIL L.
Jenkins Administrator
cf the Estate of Rebecca
. Jenkins,
deceased.
SECOMP MATURE
ment with her parents two or
three times a week. That is my
privilege as godfather.
When first I saw her she was
just a moist, bald-headed ball of
protoplasm that smclled of milk
and made small noises like a
puppy. She stubbornly refused to
make baby talk and disdained
the English language altogether
until she was ready to use com
plete sentences.
One day the phone rang and
as her parents leaped to answer
it she looked up from her play
pen and said gravelv:
"I'll get it. I'll get It."
It was in this way we learned
for sure that Nina was a genius.
Un'.il then we were just going
on blind faith. Now she is a flaxen-haired,
sturdy-legged child
and the big sorrow of her life is
that Jack fell down and broke
his crown while going up the hill
with Jill to fetch a pall of water.
Every Night
Every night she wanls to hear
(his nursery adventure again, and
as soon as Jack falls down she
tells her father:
"You get doctor. ' Make him
well."
I am her standby storyteller.
And all this year as Nina has
grown older I have been growing
younger. And it has been a happy
happy year too good to go on, I
guess.
The other weekend her father
and mother, George and Helen
Camp Palmer, a young newt
paper couple, got an assignment
to go to Italy. They will be gone
for three years. Nina doesn't
know Rome for from Rochester,
but she has been told she is going
to take a trip on a big boat. And
she is so excited that she is be
ginning to lose interest in Jack
and Jill. Whenever she sees a
tug toot by on the East river she
says:
"There's Nina's boat. Tell me
about big boat."
Recently, while her parents
were shopping, I took her on a
farewell visit to the Central Park
Zoo. She said goodbye to the
monkeys, wanted to climb In and
pet the tigers, jeered at the "lazy
seal" that wouldn't go into the
water. But most of all she loved
the pigeons because they, came
and pecked peanuts from her
hand.
Halls A Cab
Then we bought a balloon and
hailed a cab home. On the way
she turned to me with a luminous
smile and said:
"Hal, I sleepy."
nnd she stretched out comfort
ably on the seat, put her feet in
my lap and dozed off. All the
rest of the way I kept thinking.
"Lord, Lord, can't you let it stay
this way for a long time?"
There was so much I had to
tell her all about Cinderella and
the Three Bears and the little
hoy who put his finger In the
dike and saved Holland. But now
somebody In Italy will Ml her
all these fine stories, and pro
bably get them all mixed up in
the telling.
Three days after Chris! mas
she'll be gone, leaving me a God
father in absentia. When I see
her again she'll be almost six
and greet me with a polite "Buon
Giorno" instead of "Hi, Hal!"
How can I believe in Santa
Claus this year?

Way Open For Independent
United States Of Indonesia
BATAVIA, Java , (JP) The way was cleared Wednesday for
the long-awaited formation of a soverlgn United States of Indo
nesia. Independence comes after 300 years of Dutch colonial ruli
over some 77,000,000 Island Inhabitants In the southwest Pacific.
The Dutch-Indonesian Independ
ence agreement, signed six
weeks ago in The Hague, was
ratified by the parliament of the
Independent Indonesian r e p u b
He, largest of the group which
will make up the U.S.I, previous
ly the 15 federal, Dutch-sponsored
Indonesian states and the low
er house of the Netherlands par
liament approved the agreement.
The parliaments of all of the
states also ratified the draft con
stitution. Talks Started In 1942
Negotiations for the granting of
sovereignty to the people of this
group of fabulously rich Islands
began early in 1942. They were
Interrupted by the Japanese In
vasion of the islands. Afler the
war the negotiations, although re
sumed, were marked by bloody
fighting between Dutch troops
and Indonesian republicans be
fore the United Nations stepped
in early this year and demand
ed a truce and peaceful talks.
The big Indonesian republic,
meeting in Its capital at Jog
Jakarta, was the last to ratify,
the agreement. But ratification
was approved overwhelmingly
by a vote of 22S to 62 with 31
members of the moderate 8o.
olallst Party abstaining from
voting.
Those who voted against retl
ficatlion were made up mainly of
lommumsis and splinter icmst
parties.
Soviet Opposed
(Soviet U.M. delegate Semyon
K. Tsarapkin said the new agree
ment only imposed a "new and
more subtle slavery" on the In
donesians. British Delegate Sir
Alexander Cadogan retorted that
the Soviets were annoyed by the
Independence agreement because
It "limits their possibility of mak
ing trouble, raising strife and
causing turmoil in that part of
tne world.
The security council voted
down a Soviet resolution to ..bo
lish the U. M. Indonesian com
mission. Council President Mc
Naughton said it would continue
to function as long as necessary
to advise the Dutch and Indone
sians on transfer of power to the
U.S.I.)
The last two federal states
to ratify were the tin mining
islands of Bangka and Bllllton,
off east Sumatra, whose parlia
ments passed the bill.
Among the islands which will
become part of the new U. S. I.
are the most heavily populated
island of Java. The romantic is
land of Bali, home of graceful
ceremonial dances and beautiful
gold and silver work, also is In
the group. Largest in area is
oll-rlch Borneo. Inclusion of the
Dutch-held part of New Guinea
was postponed for one year under
the agreement despite demands
by the Indonesians that it be
come part of the U.S.I, now. ,
Still on Federation Bails
Although the new U.S.I, will
have full sovereignty, It still is
to be Included on a federated
commonwealth basis linked to
Netherlands by the Dutch crown.
The Netherlands government has
appointed its top economic spec
ialist, Dr. Hans M. Hirschfcld,
to be the first Dutch high com
missioner to the new federation.
The government said Hlrsch.
fold would hold the post for
only a short time because of
other duties.
Authoritative sources In the
Hague also revealed that S. L. J.
Van Waardenburg, who at pre
sent is a delegate of the Nether
lands royal high commissioner in
Balavia, will become high com
missioner of Dutch New Guinea.
The sources said Ihe Dulch will
send a token military force of
1,000 men to Ihe New Guinea
area. While the Dutch are to hold
that area, negotiations with the
Indonesians are called for in the
Hague agreement to establish its
political status with a view to
eventual inclusion In ihe U. S. I.
Formal turnover of sovereign
ty to the U. S. I. Is scheduled
Dec. 27.
