much cause to regret it."

Pot Correct Cleaning With Full Endorsement ItnUt on Sen-ice Mwter
By HARMAN W. NIC HOIA
rnitttl I'ithh Stuff Correspondent
WASHINGTON (UP Presi
dent KLsenhower, more'ii the pity,
isn't wearing any kind of hat these
days except occasionally u golf
cap to shade hut eyes when he's
taking the sun on tlie hospital ter
race in Denver.
But when uur leader was up and
around, he was a mighty spruce
dresser topside, and the boost he
gave to the Horn burg rates him
second spot on a new list of the
"best-hatted men in the world."
The best-halted selections have
been made annually for the past
decade or so by Harry Kolnick of
Garland, Tex., who has a mer
cenary interest in these matters
because he is a maker and ped
dler of male headgear.
The Duke Ih Beat
Leading the list for 1955 is the
Duke of Edinburgh, royalty's lead
er in men's fashions.
According to friend Harry, the
Duke is not as strongly a pro
Homburg man as Mr. Eisenhow
er. But neither is he anti-Hom-burg.
He wears them when the
occasion demands. He also wears
numbers with the snap on the
brim and on formal occasions,
naturally, goes for the silk toppers
that look like sawed-off stove
pipes.
Harry says the Duke's choice of
headgear "reflects his royal posi
tion combined with a debonair
quality which makes him the best
hatted man anywhere."
Mr. Eisenhower is in second
place because Mhis keen style
sense reflects an appreciation of
me right headgear, for the rignt
ocasion. He wears his hats with
dignity and authority."
Mr. Harry Truman, who led the
poll a couple or three times while
he was in the White House,
dropped to sixth place. But he
still 'has a keen sense ot show
manshlp, which is reflected In his
head covering."
Millionaire sportsman Alfred j
Gwynn Vanderbllt is in third)
place, a "natty dresser who has
a fabulous hat wardrobe."
John Wayne' TuMe
Sen. Herbert II- Lehman, the
Democrat from New York, is
fourth because of his "conserva
tive taste," and movie star John
Wayne, who goes for a robust
taste in masculine headgear and
who was first last year, is No. 5.
Tlie hotel tycoon, Conrad Hilton,
who owns almost as many bon
nets as he does beds, is seventh.
Golfer Ben Hogan comes next be
cause of his "sportsman's sense
of color and design."
Frank Sinatra, the male thiush,
comes up ninth because he has a
"perfect hat sense," and Adlai
Stevenson, who once got his pic
ture taken with a hole in his shoe,
places tenth for sartorial excel
lence at the head level. ,
Among the honorable mentions
are Bing Crosby, Red Skelton,
Noel Coward, Joe Louis, William
A. Wellman, Marlon Brando, John
Rlngling North, trumpeter Harry
James, Michael Wilding, and Gene
Kelly.
I reckon it Is understandable
that no wretch from the working
press ever seems to get Into this
category. Any newspaper man who
owns more than one hat Is look'.d
upon with a sneer In his own .so
ciety. And that one is apt to be
mighty battered.
GOOD REASONS
GREENSBORO, N.C. (UP)
John Franklin Summers, a 110-
pound man, who is being sued for
non-support, told a court he had
good reasons for leaving home.
Summers said that while he was
cleaning house, his 170 - pound
spouse and her 22-year-old son by
a former marriage, took $26 from
his wallet, beat him; tore his
shirt, and trampled eggs and gar
bage all over his two best suits
CLAIMANTS
England, France and Spain all
claimed possession of Nebraska at
various times during the early his
tory of the united States.
Cut in Farmer
Share Forecast
WASHINGTON (U) The
Agriculture Department predicted
today tliat increased marketing
charges will cut the farmer's
share uf tlie consumer's food dol
lar to 40 cents in 1900.
Tlie farmer's share of the house
wife's food dollar in 1955 is esti
mated tentatively at 41 cents, two
cents less than in 1954.
The department in its publica
tion, "The Marketing and Trans
poitalion Situation," said chai-ges
for processing and distributing
farm products in 1956 are expected
to average near the level of the
third quarter of 1955 when they
reached a new high three per
cent above a year earlier. Prices
received by farmers for food prod
nets in the third quarter this year
were seven per cent less than in
the same period of 1954.
Peeause of the increase In mar
keting charges, less than half of
-his decline was passed on to con
sumers, the department said. Re
tail prices of farm food products
were down an average of one per
cent.
Meanwhile. Sen. Paul H. Doug
las (D-Ill) said Senate Democrats
will introduce legislation next year
for direct subsidy payments to
formers to bolster skidding farm
prices.
He said the bill probably will
take the form of an "income sup
port" plan to 'allow market prices
to be relatively free and then, so
far as the small farmers are con
cerned, make up the difference by
direct subsidy."

Israeli Drive Attackers Back
TEL AVIV, Israel- (UP) '
Egyptian troops tried to attack an
Lsraeti position under cover of a
heavy artillery barrage before
dawn today but were driven back,
an Israeli army spokesman said.
Maj. Dan Gov, the official spokes
man, said tlie Egyptian infantiy
platoon charged toward an ad
vanced Israeli position on the out
skirts of Kissufim from Egyptian
positions bordering on the armis
tice line.
He reported no casualties.
Gov said Egyptian Vampire jets
stabbed into Israel Monday after
noon and that two of the jets were
seen circling over Nitzana and the
Patish settlement in the demil
itarized zone area. He said four
planes flew over the area Sunday.
The spokesman said an Egypt inn
military force penetrated Israeli
tertitoi-y in the Niriin sector Mon
day and opened machine gun fire
on Israeli positions from an Egypt
ian post. He said an Israeli force
put the Egyptians to flight without
suffering casualties.
A foreign office spokesman jaid
Israel had complained to the Is
raeli - Egyptian Mixed Armistice
Commission about theNirim attacks.
"CANDIX" FISH
The oolachan, a species of fish
allied to the smelt, found on the
north Pacific coast, is so fat and
oily it can be used as a candle
or lamp by merely drawing a
wick through it and lighting.
