Newspaper Page Texttax Bill Procedure Explained fo Group Of Trailer Owners Edward C. Kelly, Medford at torney who has been retained by the Organized Trailer Home Owners of Jackson and Jose phine counties, spoke to a meet ing of the group at the Valley Center Trailer court here last week end. He discussed the proposed tax reduction bill supported by the trailer owners, explaining the procedures it would have to go through before it could come before the legislature. He sug gested that members write to their state representatives, urg ing them to do what they can to persuade the rules committee to approve consideration and intro duction of the bill. New Membert Raymond Neves, Roseburg, secretary-treasurer of the state organization, attended the meet ing, and several new members joined. A large attendance was reported. Two local unions in Medford have offered help regarding the tax bill, which would equalize assessments of trailers, it was re ported, and several others have asked for reports of the meeting and copies of the proposed bill. r Next meeting will be April 2 at the same place, 3410 North Pacific Highway, Medford. Betty Hutfon Weds In Las Vegas Rites Las Vegas U.R) Actress Betty Hutton and Alan Living ston, a recording company ex ecutive, left for Hollywood to day after getting married in a ( quiet ceremony last night. - The marriage was made pos sible when Livingston flew to Acapulco, Mexico and obtained a Mexican "quickie divorce" from his wife, Elaine.

Russian Embcssv Exoresses interest 4 m B fn Entering Girl in Miss World Contest Wednesday. Maxell 9, 1939 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE FITS London (U.PJ Major Neville Willing knocked on the door of the Soviet Embassy recently to talk about bathing beauties. "They' couldn't have been nicer to me, dear fellow," he said, fluttering his hands in ex citement. "They a s'k ed me what I wanted. I told them I was hand ling the Miss World beauty con test and I wanted to invite Rus sia to send a girl to represent them this year." Now Major Neville Willing is what is crudely termed a press agent. And the Russian diplo matic mission on a quiet street off Hyde Park is not exactly the most benign climate for any westerner. There are usually long waits and the caller tires of noting that the portraits of Malenkov have been replaced by those of the more durable Lenin. Not so with Major Neville Willing. ' When he arrived there was a whispered conference. It was de cided that beauty contests came under the heading, "culture," and the greying, sprightly major was ushered into the office of the cultural attache. "Charming fellow," Willing recalled. "Really most pleasant. I told him what I wanted. He listened intently. Then he said: "Of course, in Russia we have the most beautiful girls in the world." The attache's tone, said the major, did not admit of dispute. Did the major really think i Russia would enter an interna tional beauty contest? Willing gleefully rubbed his hands. "They asked me how long their girl would be needed if she came," he said. "How often she would have to wear a bath ing suit and how and by whom the judging would be conducted, "That sounds like they'll par ticipate, doesn't it? They must have some one whiz-o in mind. Yes, someone absolutely smash ing." The major closed his eyes as though already seeing Miss Col lective Farm of 1955 step out before the judges in her bath ing suit. A red bathing suit, of course. WRONG HOTEL Omaha, Neb. U.R) Charles E. Lyon, 44, of Brook, Neb., was fined $15 and costs for drunken ness when he tried to register at a "hotel" in the early hours of the morning. Lyon discovered the "hotel" was the central po lice headquarters.

Romulo, who was president of the U.N. general assembly in 1950, said the UN charter was signed in 1945, two months be fore the first atom bomb was dropped on Hiroshima. "Since then we have lived a thousand years," he said. He said the charter gives the UN power to mediate, concili ate and negotiate but that with the atom bomb there will not be time for such things. "We must now have a political revo lution to equal the atomic revo lution," he said. Eisenhower Meets Republican Women Washington - U,R) Presi dent Eisenhower didn't let a slight cold keep him from con ferring with a group of Republi can women leaders at a break fast today. The President left the White House and attended the break fast meeting at the Sulgrave club, but otherwise he intended to take things easy today. He planned to keep an appoint ment with President Henry G. Ritter IH of the National Asso ciation of Manufacturers, but cancelled his scheduled morn ing news conference. White House Press Secretary James C. Hagerty said Mr. Eisen hower curtailed his activities "as a protective measure" because his physician, Dr. Howard Mc Snyder, detected "slight symp toms of a cold." On The Side ' By E. V. DURLING (Distributed by King Features Syndicate, Inc.) , As the woman sees the man. As the man beholds the woman. Curiously they note each other, As each other only can. Never can the man divest her Of that wondrous charm of sex. Ever must she dreaming of him That same mystic charm annex. Proctor. A safety razor blade made to last forever. That was what the seven Kampfe brothers of Man hattan claimed for their blade which they manufactured around sixty-five years ago. I heard of a New Yorker who used a Kampfe blade for over fifty years. Also of a New Eng lander who used a similar blade sixty-one years. Unfortunately, the Kampfe blades are no longer manufactured. Those Songs Harry von Tilzer, who wrote "My Old New Hampshire Home," was from Michigan. Irving Berlin, composer of "I Want to Go Back to Michigan," was born in New York City. Egbert van Alstyne, writer of "Back, Back to Baltimore," was from Chicago. Stephen Foster, composer of "My Old Kentucky Home," was from Pennsylvania. However, Jim Blake and Char lie Lawler, who wrote 'The "Sidewalks of New York," were both natives of New York City. Also Jim and Charlie had ac tually danced on ' the sidewalks of New York when they were kids. In the neighborhood of East Eighteenth Street, to be exact. Sidelights It was none other than Jus tice McCardie who observed, "By binding himself in matri mony, a man receives little or no benefits from the law. He in curs responsibilities so vast that no man could contemplate them without the rosy-tinted spec tacles of love" . . . Added to the list of delayed blessed events should be that of a San Fran ciscan, who says at the age of 44 she gave birth to her first and only child. So They Say TAURUS (April 21-May 20) Women like to be taken to quaint little restaurants where the lights are low, the food su perb and the martinis very strong. The Taurian girls like to be swept off their feet. Women of that sign should always be kissed on the first date. In dis cussing marriage, a man should say, "You're going to marry me," never, "Will you marry me?" or, so say the stargazers. Asking Queries from clients. Q. Has any critic ever had his face slapped by an irate actress? A. Hanen Swaffer, London critic, had his face vigorously slapped by Lilian Foster, an American actress. Lilian was annoyed be cause Swaffer said she had "an affected baby voice." Lydia Thompson, star of a burlesque troupe known as "The British Blondes" horsewhipped a Chi cago critic because he cast re flections on her character.
