Jordan King
And Teacher
Wed Today
Amman, Jordan U.R) Young
King Hussein gives the throne of
Jordan a schoolteacher queen to
day in an ancient Moslem cere
mony marked by the absence of
the bride both from the wedding
and the king's reception after
wards. Hussein, 22-year-old ruler of
1,400,000 Jordanians, followed
strict Moslem rites in marrying
his 27-year-old cousin, Princess
Dina, but there were many 20th
century touches including a
crooner, Farid El Atrash of
Egypt.
Arab custom kept Princess
Dina from the ceremony that
formally made her queen and
from the reception, but at later
celebrations she planned to join
the king.
The actual wedding was an
all-male function at the Amman
hilltop palace of Zahran, the red
and white marble structure be
longing to Hussein's mother.
According to Moslem law King
Hussein and the bride's father,
Prince Abdel Hamid, were to
sign a contract of marriage
which made Dina the first of
four wives allowed to Hussein
by law. It was indicated that
Hussein, like his father, would
take only one wife.
All Jordan marked the wed
ding day, from the holy places
of Jordanian Jerusalem to the
Arab Legion outposts guarding
the nation's tense borders with
Israel. It was a national holiday
and the state broadcasting sta
tion doubled its hours on the air
to cover all proceedings.
Schools, banks and public in
stitutions closed.
Queen Dina taught English lit
erature and met Hussein in Eng
land when he was studying at
Eton and she at Oxford.
The honeymoon plans were
not made public but court cir
cles said the king may take his
bride to Spain during the summer.

Republican Speaker Reviews
Party Record; Lauds Senator
The accomplishments of the Republican party on the national
level were reviewed by Mrs. Paul Geddes, Roseburg, in a talk be
fore Jackson County Republican Women yesterday 'noon at the
YMCA. Mrs. Geddes is the wife of State Senator Geddes and has
been serving as his secretary during the current session of the
legislature.
Mrs. Geddes prefaced her talk
by praising State Senator Philip
B. Lowry, saying his record as a
freshman senator is outstanding.
"He's well liked and admired, and
when he speaks, the senate lis
tens," she said. Mrs. Geddes also
said she is proud to be a Repub
lican, proud of the party's accom
plishments and that she believes
preservation of "what is known
as the American way of life de
pends upon the Republican par
ty; this country is steadily drift
ing away from individualism to
wards pure socialism."
Stating that "the facts prove
the Republican party has carried
out its campaign promises" Mrs.
Geddes reviewed foreign policy,
the national economy, the labor
picture, agriculture and internal
security.
Mrs. Geddes said the Republi
can bi-partisan foreign policy has
brought about a new feeling of
trust and respect abroad and
compared Yalta and Potsdam
with the London pact, the Vene
zuelan conference, the results in
Korea and other foreign policy
accomplishments of the adminis
tration. The speaker added that
under the Truman administra
tion, the United States delegates
to the United Nations had per
mitted the UN to become a
."sounding board" for the Soviets
while the representatives of the
Eisenhower administration no
longer allowed such tactics.
This country's foreign aid pro
gram is now on a basis of help
ing nations to help themselves,
Mrs. Geddes said, and "we no
longer pour out aid unadvis
edly." Speaking of the national econ
omy, Mrs. Geddes said the whole
tax program had been revised,
that a $7 "billion cut had been
made in the nation's taxes, "the
largest saving in tax history."
She said this had not benefitted
big business only, as the Demo
crats had charged, but that 70
per cent direct relief to individ
uals. "The average American
family saved $100 in taxes last
year as a result of these econo
mies," Mrs. Geddes declared.
The Republican tax program
has encouraged new business,
she added, and therefore in
creased employment. Fourteen
out of 15 federal tax increases
in recent years were made under
the Democrats, she said, while
7 out of 10 tax reductions were
brought about under the Repub
lican administration.
.On the labor picture Mrs.
Geddes said last , year was "the
most peaceful of any recent
year" and that it is the policy of
the Eisenhower administration
to encourage labor and industry
to work together to promote a
healthy labor situation.
Speaking of internal security,
Mrs. Geddes said here the two
parties were in sharp contrast
for our NEW Alice Brooks
Needlecraft Catalog for 1955.
Exciting, enchanting our new
designs aite all that and even
more! Send 25 cents for your
copy of this terrific catalog
NOW! You'll want to order
every wonderful design in it!
and charged that the Truman
administration had "protected"
the communists.. The speaker
said that the present administra
tion had reversed this trend, that
in the process "some have been
hurt" but that this was inevit
able. Reviewing agriculture, Mrs.
Geddes declared that it is the
administration's policy to have
farming practices involved to
the point where "farmers can
get parity out of the market and
not out of your taxes."
She pointed to the end of seg
regation of races as an outstand
ing accomplishment under the
civil rights program and added
that conditions have been "quiet
ly improved"; in the capital, in
veterans' hospitals and in the
armed services.
Mrs. Geddes spoke briefly of
the power issue and said "we do
not have to be ashamed to be on
the side of private power" and
added "we won't have the power
dams we need If we wait on fed
eral money alone to build them.
She added that the Republicans
do not want to do away with
public power, but neither do
they want a monopoly of gov
ernment in this field.
The speaker also said women
are being I'given a break" by
the Republican party and have
had many party appointments.
She closed her talk by saying
that the party was consistently
working for freedom "and the
struggle for freedom is more
serious than we realize."
During the business session,
conducted by Mrs. Stephen G.
Nye the by-laws were changed
to abolish the board of trustees
and to change the tenure of of
fice from, two to one year.
Mrs. Walter Brittan and Mrs.
E. A. Goff were introduced to
newly naturalized citizens of the
county.. About 70 women at
tended. .
