Stanton An article by a BritiBh author, analytical of the mon archy as an institution, has given the Saturday Evening Pout a trreat deal of free advertising. The press of both the United States and Great Britain has devoted much editorial comment to the article. As usual, no two editors seem to agree. Some contend the article to have been in very poor taste. Others defend it as evidence of the ri?ht of free speech among English speaking people, contending that truth fs always in good taste. While the author, Malcolm Muggeridge, former editor of Punch, now a writer armed with needles with which to puncture inflated egos, credited the monarchy with being a cohesive institution, binding together the far-flung British commonwealth, he spoke somewhat disparagingly of the personal appearance of the queen, and proclaimed the mon archy a "soap opera." It is my own opinion that while the article was In bad taste at any time, it was particularly so when published the week of the queen's visit to the United Stales. The people of the United States, for the most part, I believe, find the British queen to be a charming person. The manner in which she was received by the people of 4-U.'

"kissin' cousins," as they say down South, even though there has been a separation of families. No Time For Smearing Muggeridge, took refuge, of course, in objective re porting by quoting unnamed members of royalty in defin ing the queen as "dowdy, frumpish and banal." Itis criticism follows that of an English peer, who had his face properly slapped by a member of the gentry, for carping about the queen's "school girl voice." : Coming as it did on the eve of the queen's visit to the United States, the criticism, even though it might be true, was totally unnecessary and, in my opinion, showed jour nalistic poor taste on the part of the Saturday Evening Post. It is American custom to show our guests every courtesy and hospitality, rather than greet them with insults. h The Mueeeridtre article, and the fact it was published In an American magazine of national circulation, indicates what to me is a deplorable trend. The trend is evident in both art and literature. In England It is exemplified by the "Kitchen Artists." , England has a "group of young and impoverished ar tists, as has been true throughout history. The majority of'these nainters are mediocre, or worse, in ability. They are bitter, cynical, soured on the world, carping in their criticism. They can see little good about lite. I ney paint horror and suffering, dismal and ugly scenes. Their de pressing daubings have earned them the title of "Kitchen Artists." Their works art being widely displayed and ac claimed.

Some of the literature printed in our magazines and even in our newspapers deserves the "Kitchen Artist," title, in my opinion. A look at any average newsstand will re veal plenty of literature of garbage can variety. Although defenders of the Muggeridge article contend there should be no censorship over free expression of opin ion, and that truth must always be recognized, it is my con tention that no excuse of truth justifies the mire and slime of "kitchen" artistry. If you've heard this one you may stop me, but some of this palavering about truth reminds me of the story I read recently concerning the ship's log. The captain, writing up the log of this ship's first day out of port, made the entry that: "The first mate was drunk all day." The first mate protested. He explained that the pas sengers celebrated their departure, that he had to drink with them as a matter of courtesy, that it was a one-time occurrence and should not be entered upon the log. "It's true isn't it?" asked the captain. The first mate was forced to acknowledge the truth of the statement. A few days later the ship ran into a voilent storm dur ing which the captain fell and broke his arm. His accident made it necessary for the first mate to write the log. His entry was: "The captain was sober all day."

What President Eisenhower Is proposing is that we take our friends and allies into the lodge, so we may share our thinking with them and they may share their thinking with us. That is the way scientific prog ress is achieved. We have some pretty able friends and associates. The British first put radar to work. They used it to spot German submarines at night. We took hold of it and developed it farther. But the British thought of it first. (letting out of the field of wea pons, it was an Englishman (or, to be exact, a Scotsman.

Candy Collins was the only other girl who sold more than SO boxes. All the candy order ed by the Job's Daughters was sold.
