On The Side
By E. V. Durlinq
(Diitributed by King Futures Syndicate, Inc.)
To love mnd to remember; that is good.
To love and to forcet: that Is not wen,
To lapse from love to hatred that is
Hell
And death and torment, rightly
understood.
Christina Rosietti
Who gives the better service?
Waiters or waitresses? The
claim has been made that wait
resses are superior as to service.
To this a California restaurant
man of long experience takes
strong exception. He favors the
waiters. He adds that on a recent
visit to New York the best serv
ice he received was from a wait
er at Lindy's on Broadway and
the worst from a waitress in the
coffee shop of a world famous
hotel.
Says Ho
"The statement that there
were only five royal families of
Ireland is erroneous," writes a
New Yorker named Carroll.
"There were 36 royal families
of Ireland, seven kings and 29
princes. Eight of these were
O'Carrolls ruling over more ter
ritory than any other family in
Ireland except the O'Kellys. The
two kings of Ireland omitted
from the list by those stating
there were only five, were both
from Tipperary, MacCarthy and
O'Callaghan."
Passing By
Ann Codee. Extremely clever
comedienne. Teamed in vaude
ville for many years with her
husband, Frank Orth. They ap
peared in vaudeville theaters all
over the world. Were capable of
playing their act in five lan
guages! Ann and Frank recently
celebrated their 45th wedding
anniversary. They were married
in the Little Church Around the
Corner, Manhattan. Incidentally,
that church is said to have a
higher percentage of successful
marriages than any other in this
country.
Asides
San Francisco subscriber signs
her name "Elynore." Now I have
readers named Elynore, Elynor,
Elinor, Eleanor, Elinore and
Elinoyre . . . Are you a poker
enthusiast? How great is your
: knowledge of the game? Have
you ever realized that when you
' hold a pair and keep it with the
hope of getting four of a kind
that the odds against your so
doing are 359 to 1?
Over There
A statuesque Italian female
is a distinct rarity. Average
height of women of that coun
try is five feet one inch. In
.this connection it is interesting
to note that platform shoes orig
inated in Italy. An Italian worn-
an can legally marry at the age
; of 15. A man has to be 18. How
. ever, the average Italian man
, doesn't marry until he is about
! 28. And the average Italian wom
an does not become a bride until
25. Reason for that is that in
Italy marriage is usually for
keeps. Divorce is practically
non-existent in that country.
Asking
Queries from clients. O. You
say Sam Coslow wrote the song
titled, "Cocktails for Two." My
husband says he met a man
named Arthur Johnston who said
he wrote that song. How about
this. A. Sam Coslow and Arthur
Johnston collaborated in writ
ing "Cocktails for Two." Both
are very clever fellows. Inci
dentally, Johnston also wrote
"Pennies From Heaven" and
'Just One More Chance." both
outstanding Bing Crosby hits.
Baseball Cradle
More maior leaeue ballDlavers
have been born in San Francisco
than in any other citv in the
country. At one time the infield
of the Cincinnati Reds was en
tirely mode un of fellows born
in San Francisco. That infield
was: Fonseca lb: Bohne 2b:
Caveny ss; Pinelli 3b.
Puzzling Smile
What was the inspiration and
meaning of Mona Lisa's enig
matic smile in the Leonardo da
Vinci painting? That question
has been discussed for centuries
with no general agreement as to
the answer. The most depressing
view of the matter is that taken
by an Irish art critic who
claimed the puzzling Mona Lisa
smile was the result of Da Vinci's
model having a badly fitting
pair of false teeth.

Britain May Delay
Atomic Device Test
Onslow, West Australia (U.R)
Weathermen tracked a coastal
storm today to determine wheth
er British scientists will have to
delay testing the most powerful
atomic device they have produc
ed. Huddled over charts aboard
the flagship of the Royal Navy's
atomic task force off the Monte
bello islands, they were concern
ed about a low pressure area
off West Australia.
The test is planned for tomor
row morning. Official state
ments have said it would be
"small and unspectacular." But
evidence indicated the blast
would be far more powerful
than the 1952 test at Montebel
lo. .
The oil fields of North Dakota,
only four years old, have already
contributed more than 13,000,000
barrels of oil.

and tropical South America has

Criticisms of Eden Multiply;
He's No Sir Winston Churchill
r
By CHARLES M. McCANN
United Press Correspondent
Prime Minister Anthony Eden
is under heavy attack again, and
demands for his resignation may
SrSSSx-sai be expected to
intensity, xnis
time it is the
"frogman inci
dent" which
the House of
Com mons in
London debat
ed Monday
night.
Eden has
Charles Mccann been attacked
on all sorts of issues, however,
since he took Churchill's place
on April 6, 1955.
Domestic issues, British com
monwealth issues, foreign is
sues, have succeeded each other.
Influential Conservatives have
joined the Labor Party opposi
tion in blaming Eden for every
thing which goes wrong or
threatens to go wrong.
The chief complaint against
him in his own party as well as
in the Labor Party, is that his
leadership is weak. He lacks
Churchill's masterly grip, his
critics say.
That can hardly be disputed.
But where is another Churchill
to be found, in Britain or any
other country?
Eden Takes Blame
Take the frogman incident.
Eden did not know that frogman
Lionel Crabb was going to snoop
around the hull of the Russian
cruiser Ordzhonikidze in Ports
mouth Harbor during the visit
of Soviet Premier Nikolai A.
Bulganin and Communist leader
Nikita S. Khrushchev.
In fact, Eden probably had
heard only vaguely, if at all,
that such a man as frogman
Crabb existed.
But Eden takes the blame for
the snooping, for refusing to
tell the full story of it to the
House of Commons and especi
ally, for telling Russia more
than he did Commons when he
replied to a Soviet protest.
One reason for it all is that
Eden inherited from Churchill
a plague of troublesome prob
lems, in which a drift toward
inflation is one of the biggest.
Another is that Eden lacks
Churchill's warm, dominant per
sonality. Undoubtedly, when
Churchill was prime minister,
more people hated him than
hate Eden now. But not so many
like Eden very much.
Then, there is the British po
litical system itself. When any
thing goes wrong in Washing
ton, say, Secretary of State John
Foster Dulles, Secretary of De
fense Charles K Wilson or Sec
retary of Agriculture Ezra Taft
Benson may take the blame, or
be given it.
More Lumps Coming
In Britain, the prime minister
takes the rap. Eden is taking it
now over the frogman incident.
That was an Admiralty or Secret
Service matter. He will take it
more and more in coming weeks
over the Cyprus crisis, or over
the budget in which Chancellor
of Exchequer Harold Macmillan
provided for a government bond
lottery to encourage savings.
Construction Watcher
Killed as Rail Breaks
Chicago U.R) A "sidewalk
superintendent" plunged 150
feet to his death yesterday when
the rail on which he was lean
ing collapsed.
Hubert L. Hinton, 45, was
watching construction of a new
filtration plant when the rail
gave way and he fell into an excavation.
Thornton Cites
Pelton Action
Salem (U.R Attorney Gen
eral Robert Y. Thornton said to
day that criminal proceedings by
the Jefferson couuty district at
torney would be the appropriate
action if allegations that Port
land General Electric Company
was building Pelton dam should
prove true.
Thornton's opinion came in
answer to Gov. Elmo Smith's
question as to what legal action
could be taken.
The attorney general said that
PGE would be in violation of
Oregon water law in construct
ing the Deschutes river dam
without a state license.
"In view of the fact that the
legislative assembly expressly
made certain acts of persons in
the appropriation of water a
crime, I directed the district at
torney of Jefferson county to
make an investigation on certain
alleged facts that if such facts be
found true to institute the neces
s a r y criminal proceedings,"
Thornton told the governor.
London (U.R) Britain today
appointed Sir John MacPherson
to the post of permanent coloni
al under - secretary, succeeding
Sir Thomas Lloyd who is retir
ing from public service.

MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE FIVE
Eden is the chief of govern
ment, not like President Eisen
hower the chief of state. Queen
Elizabeth is chief of state. And
under the British system she
can do no wrong. That is not
because Britons regard their
sovereign as sacrosanct. It is
because the sovereign is kept
above and strictly out of
politics. He or she acts by advice
of the prime minister.
So Eden, partly because he
is not another Churchill, is tak
ing his lumps. But he is actually
a man of strong character, and
a fighter.
He also has a majority of 59
over the combined opposition
in the 630-seat House of Com- expected to continue, and he
mons. v - may be expected to continue as
The attacks on Eden may be prime minister.
