LlSTEhMG TO THE TWO LOVEBIRDS BILL 4ND 000 TILL THE &05 COMES 4L0NS Democrats To Focus Campaign Attention On Vice President San Francisco (U.R) Demo cratic National Chairman Paul oM. Butler, calling Richard M. Nixon "perhaps the least popu lar vice-president we have had Qfor many years," says his party will 'focus our big guns" on the young Californian in the 1956 election. Butler told a press conference here yesterday that President Eisenhower's age "will be an im portant factor" in the coming campaign "especially if Nixon is nominated." Want Nixon Nominated "The Democrats hope Nixon is on the ticket," he said. "And if Mr. Eisenhower doesn't run we'd Qike nothing better than to have Nixon nominated. "I think the American people, If Gen. Eisenhower is a candi date, will be very much con cerned if Nixon is the candidate for vice-president. Nixon is per haps the least popular vice-pres-idnt we have had for many years." Butler came to San Francisco after a two-week tour of Alaska on a Democratic "fence mend ing" mission. He was here to make final ' arrangements for former President Harry Tru man's appearance next month at a party fund raising dinner. The grey-haired Democratic chieftain was asked to comment on a recent statement.by Demo cratic Gov. G. Mennen Williams of Michigan that President Ei senhower will be 66 in October and said.

Butler dodged questions on who would be the Democratic standard bearer next year but said he was confident "any nomi nee will beat Mr. Eisenhower." "The Democrats will win re gardless of who the Republican nominee is or whoever are our nominees," he said. First broadcast of London's Big Ben was made in 1923. As We Live By ELIZABETH HURLOCK. PH.D. People's ideas about mourning have changed a great deal in the past 50 years. (Q) "I have been a widow for five monthi. I am 24 years old and ihe mother of three small children, five and four years, and three months of age. I am still wearing black for mourn ing. My friends have been ask ing me io jo to the movies and do different things with them, but I don't know but what it is too soon for me to be going out. They also tell me I am too yung to be wearing black. Will you please help me with these prob lems?" (A) As the mother of such young children, you should try to hide your grief as much as possible. It is gloomy for a child to be with people who are sad and depressed and who wear only black. I am sure that your hus band would Dr. Herlock want you to wear white, gray, or light colors. He would feel that it was better for the children to see their mother in cheerful clothes. Five months, according to modern standards, is quite long enough to wear black. As for your going out, there again opinions have changed. Of course you would not go to any large parties or to places of for mal entertainment so soon after losing your husband. But there is no reason for you not to go to the movies or visit your friends, or even to attend informal par ties at their homes. You must think of your chil dren more than of yourself. It would help you to be more cheer ful at home if you could arrange to have a relative or friend stay with them occasionally while you went out with friends. Being all alone in a house with young children, and with many memories of the days when you and your husband shared this home, is bound to be depressing. That, in turn, will affect your spirits and make you nervous and tense. Children quickly sense their mother's emotional states and react to them unfavorably. That is why Santa Barbara Challenge To Duel Results in Arrest Santa Barbara, Calif. (U.R) A former German army lieuten ant was charged Saturday with forcing a 55-year-old real estate man to agree to fight a duel be cause he said the businessman "impugned the honor" of a young woman. Arno Spitz, 35, who fought for Germany in World War II until his capture by American troops, was arrested Friday night on the dueling charge at his Van Nuys, Calif., home and brought here for booking Saturday. Forced Promise William A. Allen, 55, a German-born real estate man of Santa Barbara, signed the com plaint against Spitz, a masonry contractor. Allen said Spitz forced him at knife-point on Aug. 14 to write a note in German which said "I promise you to fight a duel with you . . . before Sept. 1." Authorities said Spitz said Allen "impugned the honor" of Annaliese Hubrich, 33, also a German. Spitz, who came to the United States from Berlin, Ger many, seven years ago with his sister and parents, denied that he threatened Allen with a knife. Allen said he had met Miss Hubrich in Paris two years ago and brought her here less than a year ago to marry but they broke their engagement. Wrote "Nasty Letters' "He broke it in January," said Miss Hubrich, an X-ray technic ian working in a Los Angeles hospital. "Then he started writ ing me terrible, nasty letters." Allen said he wrote Miss Hub rich in efforts to get back a ring he had given her, $60 he had loaned her and $90 he claimed she stole from a toilet roll in his home where he had it hidden. Allen, who married another German girliabroad in May, said the first time he ever saw Spitz was on Aug. 14 when he came to his apartment here.
