Accused a Courier Mrs.
Mary Jane Keeney (above),
51, of New York, was accused
by the House Un-American
activities committee in Wash
ington of putting herself "in
the category of a courier for
the communist party" while
working for the U. S. govern
ment. The accusation was
. based on a report apparently
written by an FBI agent that
figured in the Judith Cop
Ion trial and which said Mrs.
Keeney returned from Europe
March 9, 1946, and on the
same day was seen passing a
manila envelope to a man
"suspected of being engaged
in Soviet espionage." (AP

'DOS' AND 'DON'TS FOR CHILDREN
Little Orphans on Vacation
Tested on What Kids Like
By LEO TURNER
Mount Vernon, N. Y. U.B The three little orphans, who were
selected as guinea pigs to find out what children like to do on
vacations, are back home again, tired but happy.
- "Well." said Dr. John rens-
Isen, superintendent of the Wart-
burg farm school, when he let
them in at 11 p.m.. "you got
home all in one piece.
The three chlidren, Joan Tro-
esche, 12, Eddie Carlson, 9, and
Helen Schrull, 6, were selected
in an essay and drawings con
test. They were taken on a two
week trip to Washington and
Williamsburg, Va., by Carol
Lane,, travel research director
for the Shell Oil Co., and Eliza
beth Baker.
Neither of the young women
had any experience with chil
dren when they left. They had
plenty of experience by the time
they got back.
"The important thing we
learned about children and va
cations," Miss Lane said, "is that
children like a dawdle at their
meals and when going to bed
and getting up.
"They also have to have room
to wiggle. They can't be ex
pected to act like grownups, and
if they are treated as children
the vacation goes along fine."
The three children couldn't
agree on the most impressive
thing about the vacation.
Twelve-year-old Joan said
"the nation's capital."
Eddie said the FBI.
And blue-eyed Helen couldn't
make her mind up between the
wooley-worm on the steps of the
governor's palace at Williams
burg or the calf she saw be
side the road.
"We took plenty of time to let
them see whatever attracted
their attention," Miss Lane said.
She tabulated her findings as
follows:
Under "do" she wrote: Have
children feel responsible for the
success of the trip by assigning
each one small tasks such as
locking the rear car doors and
setting up cots in the evening;
take along mosquito dope, sun
burn lotion, poison Ivy lotion
and laxative, as well as standard
first aid kit; keep a box of dime-
store toys on the back seat floor
and let a child take out one toy
at a time; make everyone get
out and stretch each time the
car stops; choose overnight cab
ins with play space; carry a
folding cot and sheets If party
makes an odd number; keep a
wet washcloth handy; carry
brown paper grocery bags for
car sickness; keep children on a
simple diet; play games to keep
them from becoming bored while
riding; give them plenty of
sleeping time.
And "don't" jump out of your
seat at strange noises or soap
bubbles coming out of the back
seat while you're driving; let
the children pick wild berries
and other fruits without know
ing what they are; be disappoint
ed when young children get rest
less during conducted tours;
stop the car suddenly and throw
the children out of their seats;
eat heavily during the day's
drive (better eat a big meal at
the end of the day): expect small
fry to sit primly (stack the lug
gage to give them a "wiggle
platform" in the back seat);
don't forget pillows to prop each
cnim up nigh enough to see;
don't encourage candy eating
and don't forget- that children
need extra affection away from
nome.
Black Chief, White Queen
Pose Diplomacy Problem
London, Aug. 1 W Should the black chief of an African
tribe, proud of its pure blood line, be allowed to bring home a
white queen?
The highest responsible offi
cial of the British common
wealth can't figure out an an
swer to this delicate question
in race relations and have asked
for a judicial inquiry.
Commonwealth Minister Phil
ip Noel-Baker and Sir Evelyn
Barin, high commissioner in
Africa, have asked Sir Waller
Harragin, judge of the high court
of Bechuanaland in Africa, to
investigate the situation.
The sticky problem is whether
Seretse (Heart of the Red
Earth) Khama, Oxford-educated
heir to the throne of Bamang
wato, should be allowed to take
his pretty white bride, Ruth
Williams, 24, London clerk,
home to rule as queen over
100,000 black tribesmen.
The special inquiry will bring
together Secretse and his uncle
Tshekedi Khama, who bitterly
opposed mingling of the races
Tshekedi once flogged a while
man with a rhinoceros whip for
taking up with Bamangwato
black women.
The uncle is backed by only
about 50 tribesmen, but they
are of sufficient influence to
have caused London to take note
of the obscure African prob
lem. A huge majority of the tribe
voted to accept Ruth as their
queen.
Adding complications are
race-conscious white residents
of South Africa who object to
the mawiaRe on the reverse of
the grounds offered by Tshekedi.
Pending outcome of the in
quiry, for which no time limit
has been set. Tshekedi rules as
regent over the Christianized,
tcetotalling tribe of 100,000.
