Gloria Svanson Decides on Visit To
Monaco That She Too Wants Principality
3y GLORIA SWANSON
Written for United Piesi
Monte Carlo U.R Before
taking leave of Monaco, which
is really a darling little paradise,
I have decided I want a prin
cipality too.
Not counting the Vatican there
are only four miniature inde
pendent states in Europe, two of
which are principalities like
Monaco.
The principalities of Liechten
stein is ruled by a youngish
prince. While both are monarchs,
Prince Rainier of Monaco does
lend an ear to France while
Prince Franz Joseph II of Liech
tenstein lends his to Switzerland.
After the Vatican Monaco is
smallest in size, between one
and two square miles. Grace has
It now so that's out. Following
la area ia San Marino, lying in
the north of Italy, run by an
elected captain regent. It is
about 38 times larger than
Monaco though having about
half the population.
Get Out the Vote
Recently this little indepen
ent state brought home from
other parts of the world some
of its citizens so they could vote
against encroaching Communism
not my cup of tea.
Fourth in area of the inde
pendent states is Liechtenstein,
between Austria and Switzer
land. It is more than 80 times as
large as Monaco. It, too, is a
haven for businesses wishing to
escape taxes.
William Tell was one of Liech
tenstein's subjects in the early
17th century. The land of the
principality was purchased for
400,000 gulden. In those days
that could have meant peanuts or
millions of dollars to us.
Prince Franz Joseph II, who
rules the larger of the two prin
cipalities, is married to an Aus
trian princess, darn it. Now of
course there is no way of vying
with the Princess Grace unless
one goes in for a mere inde
pendent state without title and,
goodness gracious, that would be
no fun.
Eagle's Nest
Last of the independent states
is Andorra, the largest in size
with the smallest population. It
is situated on top of the Pyrenees
between France and Spain. This
sort of eagle's nest, I understand,
is the most picturesque of the lot
because of the savage landscape
and the fact it has retained its
ancient costumes and songs no
jazz. It is ruled jointly by the
bishops of Urgel and the French
government so this shatters my
hopes.
You can see, looking over the
field as I have, that our Grace
picked the one with the most
trimmings, titles, stamps, and
coins.
The onlv thins left to do now
is buy an island, get myself a
carpenter, a lithograph machine
and a metal mold. Who says I
can't have a throne, stamps and
coins?
Pacific Islanders Complain
Of Higher Cost for Brides
Suva, Fiji (U.R) New Gui
nea and New Hebrides complain
ed Saturday that the cost of
brides on their South Pacific Is
lands Is skyrocketing beyond
reason.
Delegates complained to the
six-nation South Pacific confer
ence here that the richest peo
ple in their communities are
parents who have the most
daughters.
M. Kalsautu, chief of the Me
le tribe on Efate island in the
New Hebrides group, said if the
SOUP AC commission did not do
something he would impose a
boycott of marriages on his tribe
to force the price down.
Pidgin French
Kalsautu, 64-year-old grand
father of 11 children, used pid
gin French and skinny-fingered
gestures to emphasize his point
when someone asked if his ban
would be effective.
"By golly right she be effec
tive," he said. "I chief of Mele
tribe -and when I say something
going be, she going be."
He said the price of a bride
has jumped from $25 before the
war to $200 now.
"A man now have to work six
months and get money from rel
atives before he can afford
bride," he said.
Worse Problem
Boe Kapena, cf Papua, said
the situation was worse in New
Guinea where a swain has to pay
the bride s parents $250 before
the engagement and $1500 be
fore the wedding and pay for
the bridal feast to boot.
The 37-year-old Boe said it on
ly cost him a total of $250 to get
married 15 years ago.
The serious-minded New Gui
nea delegate said he realized the
commission was facing serious
problems, but he pleaded for
them to consider the marriage
situation too.
He said the money he would
get when his three daughters
married would just about pay
for getting his son married.
Wafer Being Released
From Grand Coulee
Ephrata, Wash. (U.R) The
Bureau of Reclamation is releas
ing water over Grand Coulee
Dam at a rate which exceeds the
inflow into Lake Roosevelt in
an effort to lower the reservoir
to provide storage for a heavy
spring runoff, Power Supervisor
A. F. Darland said Saturday.
He said the bureau will main
tain this difference until the lake
is lowered to a level of 1,250
feet. The lake is dropping at the
rate of two feet per day.
Darland said spillway gates
will carry most of the runoff in
the lake lowering operation
until an elevation of 1,260 feet
has been reached. Then the
water will have to be carried by
outlet tubes and turbines.

When you buy poultry feeds, it is poor
economy to let the price tag be your
only guide. It's the eggs per bag that
count.
Many Albers-fed flocks produce a.
dozen eggs with only 4. 1 lbs. of feed
That's 60 dozen more eggs per ton of
. feed on Albers EGG MAKER 16 than
on a ration taking 5.5 lbs. Feed to
produce a dozen eggs.
Dear Customers and Friends:
We are now doing business in our new store. We
hope to give our customers quicker and better service than
in the past. We want to thank our customers for their co
operation and patience while we were so torn up and dur
ing the time we were moving . . . Also, we want to thank
all those fine people who came to our two-day opening.
We will continue to carry a full line of Albers Quality
Feeds, as well as garden tools, plants, seeds, fertilizers, in
secticides, chicks, and power tools. If we do not happen to
stock what you are looking for, tell us, and we will do our
best to get it for you.

Medford Feed and Seed.
Family
Council
Mrs. B. J. He was unfaithful
to me.
"b. J. I could not control my
self. '
Mrs. B. J. After five years of
happy marriage which brought
us two children, my husband
went to Mexico for two months
to work on a job and got in
volved with a girl. Now he has
a venereal disease and wants me
to forgive and forget. During the
time he was away, he sent me
two postcards and no letters. He
did not even send a present for
the children.
If I were able to support my
children, I would want to go
away and forget him. Unfortun
ately, I need his help financially,
but I do not want to live with
him again. He says he has learned
his lesson, but I feel that a man
who can do this once will do it
again and again.
B.J. I told my wife the
whole truth because I wanted to
be honest with her and thought
she would try to understand. I
became involved with a girl in
Mexico because I could not con
trol my physical feelings. I know
other men who have purchased
their satisfactions and kept that
a secret from their wives, but
I could not bring myself to go
to a call girl nor to deceive my
wife.
I know I should not have given
way to my feelings, but I also
know now I cannot trust myself
to live alone, and I will never
again agree to travel alone.
I did not write letters to my
wife while I was away because
I could not tell her" the truth and
I was unable to write a lying
letter or to evade the subject. I
had it on my conscience, and I
had to have it out. I wish my wife
could understand that I never
want to deceive her or be un
faithful to her. I am not fickle,
and I would not as much as
glance at another woman if I
had not been living away from
home so long.
The Council: We cannot agree
with B. J. if he thinks it was rea
sonable for him to take up with
another woman because he was
away from home. At the same
time, we cannot agree with Mrs.
B. J. that he will do the same
thing "again and again."
He recognizes his weakness
and proposes to stay away from
temptation. We think his wife
should value his apparent hon
esty and let It weigh in his favor.
Mrs. B. J. is understandably
shocked and disgusted at learn
ing that her husband has been
unfaithful and has contracted a
venereal disease, but she should
realize her husband is no Don
Juan and that he, too, has been
deeply hurt by his experience.
Her sense of loathing at the men
tion of venereal disease is diffi
cult to overcome, but her hus
band seems genuinely contrite
and greatly need of her loy
alty and support.
Once she can bring herself to
overcome her sense of revulsion
she will realize that many wom
en (and men) have many worse
acts of faithlessness and disloy
alty to weigh. This husband, at
least, does not commit the of
fense of glorifying his sex appe
tite by speaking of it In roman
tic terminology. He does not con
fuse his errant feelings with
love, and that is something in his
favor.
Once the situation is under
stood, it should be relegated to
a forgiven and forgotten past.

FBI Asked To Enter
Galindez Case
New York (U.R) James
G. Stahlman, president of the
Inter-American Press associa
tion, urged President Eisenhow
er today to order an FBI inves
tigation into the disappearance
of Prof. Jesus Galindez of Co
lumbia university.
Galindez, columnist for
Spanish language newspapers,
has been missing since March
12. He was an outspoken critic
of Generalissimo Rafael Tru
jillo, Dominican Republic strong
man.
Stahlman, publisher of the
Nashville (Tenn.) Banner, wrote
Mr. Eisenhower in compliance
with a resolution adopted at the
IAPA's recent board of directors
meeting in Bermuda. The board
described Galindez' disappear
ance as an act of "internation
al terrorism incompatible with
civilized relations between na
tions, and their national sover
eignty." Stahlman wrote that the un
solved esse is damaging the
prestige of the United States,
especially in Latin America. He
said that the belief was wide
spread that Galindez, who was
last seen entering a New York
subway, ''has become the victim
of intrigue on the part of agents
of a foreign government which
has violated the sovereignty of
the United States."
In 25 of the 34 states which
