Elliott Roosevelt
New York. Feb. 18 fill A
Stork club ban on Elliott Roose
velt and songstress Gigl Durston
ended their plans today for a
glamorous engagement party at
the famous night spot next Tues
day. Sherman Billlngsli v. the Stork's
proprietor and autocrat of cafe
society, put the plush rope up
on the late President Roosevelt's
second son and his fourth-wife-to-be
last night.
"They are not welcome," said
Billingsley flatly.
Billlngsley said he barred Un
couple after he had "words" with
them over an engagement an- j
nouncement party he had ar-:
ranged in the club's new private
dining room.
Denial Made
"When 1 sent out announce-!
ments of the party to the press,
they denied that any such party
ever had been arranged," Bil- j
lingsley said. "So naturally I
called the whole thing off and 1
told them not to come back."
One of Bllllngsley's assistants,
Barbara Schick, said her boss
was too modest to admit it, but
he had planned to pay for the
whole spread, from caviar to
..champagne.

New York. Feb. 18 HI-) A real,
live prince is peddling rugs today
around the United States.
Prince Sigvard of Sweden said
he was entirely in favor of mon
archies. As a bread-and-butter
business, however, rugs are less
risky.
"And it's very hard sitting
around waiting for somebody to
die."
Sigvard renounced his thirdin
line rights to the Swedish throne
some 10 years ago when he mar
ried a commoner.
His grandfather is 92-year-old
King Gustaf. His sister is the
queen of Denmark. He's also a
sort of cousin to the British royal
family and its newly married
Marquess of Milford Haven, who
is in the laundry business him
self.
But for business purposes' the
prince is plain Mr. Sigvard Berna-
dotte, a middle-sized, dark-haired

British Premier
Says Labor Will
Win in Election
By Lyle C. Wilson
(United PrMa tff Correspondent)
London, Feb. 18 'l Vice-premier
Herbert Morrison said Fri
day that it was unwise to predict
the outcome of elections but "the
signs are that labor will win
again" in Britain next Thursday,
Morrison set forth the labor
party views at a press conference
as the campaigners prepared to
fire their last big volleys of ora
tory. Winston Churchill will
speak by radio tonight and Prime
minister Clement Attlee tomor
row night.
"In going around the country.
and having the good experience
of previous elections, the impres
sion I get is an atmosphere dis
tinctly favorable to the labor
party, Morrison said.
Morrison Pleased
"As far as one can tell from
going around, and from the neces
sarily limited experiences that na
tional figures give, It looks good,
smells good and sounds good to
me, and our people are in a con
dition of considerable confidence.
"Any politician who says that
an election Is won before it is
won is unwise, and the conserva
ties are making a good deal of
boastful claims. Experience in
dicates that the tory machine does
not know what it is talking about.
"My message to the labor party
is that the atmosphere' is good.
There is confidence and the signs
are that labor will win again.
II labor canvassers don t slack
off before election day with a
reeling of complacency. I feel con
fident that labor will win this
election." .
Information Doubted
Morrison said labor would do
better in traditionally conserva
tive agricultural communities
this time than last. A swing to
the right reported by conserva
tive agents in industrial Lanca
shire, Morrison said, "is not our
information."
Morrison refused toibe drawn
out on the question of Churchill's
proposal that President Truman,
Premier Josef Stalin and the next
British prime minister meet to
settle the cold war.
He said all he. had to say on
that subject last night, Morrison
said. Last night he called Church
ill's proposal "soap box diplom
acy!. ,

Blame for Accidents Placed
On Violation of Basic Rules
Salem, Feb. 18 HP) Drivers
who misunderstand or fail to
obey three basic rules of the road
account for more than half of the
traffic accidents in Oregon, the
safety division of the secretary
of state's offica estimated today.
The division noted that these
rules are about the same across
the country, despite a common
belief that traffic laws vary wide
ly from state to state.
The division listed the three
rules:
The Intersection Rule If two
cars are arriving at an uncon
trolled intersection (no stop signs
or signals) at about the same
time, the car on the right always
has the right-of-way. Two out of
five Oregon accidents occur at in
tersections. The Following Rule If you
run into the rear of another car,
you are always at fault. It doesn't
matter whether the car ahead
suddenly stopped or the driver
failed to signal. The law requires
that you drive far enough behind
to be ready for any emergency.
After failure to yield right-of-way,
following too closely is the
most frequent Oregon traffic vio
lation, the division said.
The Speed Rule Speed must
be adjusted to conditions regard
less of posted or designated speed
limits, which are considered max
imum for ideal conditions. If traf
fic is heavy or the roadway slip-
Man Kills Wife
When Action Filed
Phoenix, Ariz., Feb. 18 UP)
An itinerant lettuce worker shot
and killed his wife, her mother
and himself with a 12-gauge shot
gun shortly after his wife filed
suit for divorce, police said today.
Authorities said John White,
29, apparently went berserk when
his wife, Dorothy, 24, sued him
for divorce yesterday.
White apparently killed his wife
instantly with one blast from
the shotgun, shot his mother-in-law,
Mrs. Florence Morgan, 50,
with the second and committed
suicide with the third.
Mrs. Morgan died in a hospital
shortly after the shooting.
The drug diamino-diphenyl sul
fone is said to provide a cheap,
effective weapon against leprosy.
Nearly all rocks except sand
stone and limestone contain alu
minum compounds.
