Her biggest thrill came when Mrs. Roosevelt handed her a niece of the president's own birthday cake. She "saved" It In her coat pocket. She thought Ceanna Durbin was simply divine," but she got a bigger kick out of riding through Washington behind a police motorcycle escort. When Tony Martin asked for her autograph she shrieked: "Oh, Mis ter Martin, how wonderful." The clock was striking 12 and tha band was playing "Make Be lieve" when Anna went to her room In the Mayflower hotel. "I guess a girl never had as much fun as 1 had today," sh said, shucking off her brand new evening sandals. "Just think, President Roosevelt Deanna Dur bin and people asking for my autograph. Anna s visit here was the result of a prank played by .her older brother, Steven. When the presi dent answered a letter Anna had written him, wishing him a happy birthday because It was the same day as hers, Steve got the letter first and added the postscript: "We would like to have you come to the White House and meet the president" Anna was dressed In her Sunday best and sent off to the capital only to leam that the invitation was not genuine.

Mr. Pub lic wouldn't understand this. The governor isn't going to stick his neck out by ordering ine guara out in labor disputes." Allan G. Carson (R-Marion), committee chairman, explained he had sympathy for labor's position, but added "I don't see any reason to pick out labor in these amend ments. I don't recognise classes. To me. there's only one class." Both houses ended the third week of the session today, the house adjourning for the week end shortly before noon and the senate quitting early this after noon. A measure to prohibit optome trists from advertising fixed prices and to tighten qualifications of the profession was passed by the sen ate and sent to the house. House members, seeking to beat the Tuesday afternoon deadline for introduction of bills by indi vidual members, Introduced SI measures today. House rules require that after the 20th day, all bills must have the sanction of the legislation and rules committee unless they are sponsored bv committees. Tomor row is the 20th day of the session, but since the legislature will not be In session tomorrow, the dead line was extended to 2 p. m. Tues day. The senate has no similar rule. A bill designed to protect the Jobs and families of Oregon youths while they are in military service was Introduced In the house today by three house and two senate democrats. Such youths would be entitled to regain Jobs equal to those they had before beginning military service, their families could not be evicted while the youths are serving in the armed forces, per sons In military service would be exempt from penalties or fines for failure to pay taxes, goods bought by them on Installment plan could not be repossessed, and mortgages of such persons could not be fore closed.

The house also passed and sent to the governor a bill to repeal the law requiring tourists to reg ister on entrance into Oregon. The senate military affairs com mittee was in a stormy session over Sen. Rex Ellis' (R-Umatilla) bill to bar from ballot and office any person advocating overthrow of the government-by force. James A. Murphy, Oregon com munist party secretary, termed the measure "class legislation un constitutional." Robert M McGregor, chairman of the Portland emergency council for democratic rights, said his or ganization opposed the bill. American Legion, CIO and AFL representatives supported it, and Sen.

Knox made the assertion In the course of testimony which also included- statements that it was "wild fancy" to talk as Colonel Charles A. Lindbergh has done, of a negotiated peace in Europe and that Germany and Britain alike were "desperately" seeking a mas-ter-of-the-skies type of airplane. . Developments, he said, centered around two things: That the German air force had changed its tactics from indis criminate bombings of London in a. fruitless effort to break the Brit ish people's morale to the "far more effective" bombing of indus trial centers. . That the British yet have been unable to find any successful con voy, method of combating Increas ed German submarine activity. . Knox also declared that there had been a "lull" in German air plane production in the last month or two, during which, he said. American and British plants had produced more planes than the German plants. This was due, he declared, to "desperate" German search for a "new type of ship that will make all of the airplanes In the air now obsolete." The British, too. he described as "desperately seeking" such a new design, adding that this was one reason why American plant pro duction capacity should be in creased rapidly. "Then," he said, "if we find some design that will make every other plane in the world obsolete, we can turn them out by the hun dreds." Iowan Questions Senator Gillette (D-Iowa) ask ed Knox If it weren't true that even a strong navy would have difficulty in overcoming shore batteries. "That's what makes the at tempted invasion of England so dubious," Knox replied. Gillette asked about a speech in which Grand Admiral Raeder of the German navy recently said that Germany planned to become a world navy power. When Gil lette referred to the speech. as "bombastic," Knox said: . "All through this war, we have heard things come out of Germany and we have said they couldn't be done and in 30 or 90 days they a r. Annm" He cited thfl invntinn of Norway and the destruction of the French army as two examples of this. "Whan thev talk blusterineW and boastfully," he said, "I don't believe them but I get my armor ready." Senator Gillette remark a Knox that a cabinet member had informed the committee that Brit ain, due to developments In the Mediterranean and Africa wn. In much better position to resist an invasion than it had been four or five months ago. Both Secretary nf Ctflti.

Professor of history at the Uni versity of Washington and a rec ognized authority on the subject. Dr. Costigan outlined the signifi cance of the social and political development of modern England. Covering the period of the British world domination, he treated the fortunes of the various powers and the well-being of the English peo ple as a whole. Three definite periods were dis cussed by Dr. Costigan: the indus trial revolution, liberal bourgeoisie and imperialistic government. "The world was destroyed by twin revolutions, tha industrial and the agrarian," according to Dr. Costigan. In discussing the liberal party, he said, "They based their power on the doctrine of free trade. However, this policy only leads to competition and the elimination of small business. The historian branded Imperial Ism as ruthless and aggressive, in concluding his summarization. Indo-China, Thailand Armistice Is Agreed TOKYO, Jan. 31.
