Acting Premier Gaston Eyskens, meanwhile, began con sultations with party leaders to form a short-term coalition cab inet with the liberals dedicated to the king's return. Eyskens resigned Saturday when five of the eight liberal party ministers in his cabinet refused to approve the king's re turn on the basis of his 57 per cent majority In the recent pleibiscite. Security First, Economy Second Johnson Claims Washington, Mar. 21 (U.R) Secretary of Defense Louis Johnson said today he is deter mined to press his drive to trim all the "fat" off the military budget despite criticisms from congress or military leaders.

Imports Flood Market Meanwhile, huee imnorts of middle eastern and Caribbean oil flood Atlantic seaboard mar kets, driving down prices. The interior department's bi tuminous coal advisory council contends that increased imports since last 1948 have caused "sig nificant damage" to the nation's fuel economy.

Television Not The Duchess of Windsor, in refusing offers to appear on tele vision programs, said: "I look terrible on television. It makes me look like a Maryland horse." Why the Duchess said "A Mary land horse" baffles me. Are Maryland horses particularly un attractive? Would the Duchess consider it a more favorable sit uation if she looked like a Ken tucky horse? Seems to me the Maryland horses have been in sulted by the Duchess and the horse breeders of that 1 1 a t e should protest. On Th Bua In London a man offered a bus conductor a twenty-pound note to pay for a shilling fare. Wonder what the United States record is for offering a large bill for a bus fare? A driver on a Madison avenue bus told me he kept twenty dollars in nickels handy to use as a cure for people of fering large bills for fare. One day a man offered this driver a ten-dollar bill for a seven-cent fare and received his change in nickels! Asking Queries from clients. Q. What is the real name of the boxer, Joey Maxim? A.
