new in Washington:
Irish Bliteh. the lady Dem
ocratic law
maker from
Georgia, is
miffed about
the portable

ing to try out
at the party's
Chicago con
vention. She
Uarman Mcbols calls them
"peekers next to wire tappers
the worst invasion of a woman's
privacy!"
Mrs. Blilch points out the
little cameras give off no warn
ing signal like the big ones do.
"You don't know when you
are going to be shot," she says.
"What if a garter string is hang
ing or you're busy reddening
your lips? You're tapped. I'll bet
this new gimmick won't last long
enough to worry the Republicans
in San Francisco."
The newspaper on Capitol
Hill, "Roll Call," plays no fa
vorites. On page one is a story written
by Sen. William F. Knowland,
Republican floor leader of the
Senate. Opposite is an item sign
ed by Sen. Lyndon Johnson, the
Democratic leader. -
The headline on the Knowland
story says "Dems Thwarted Ike's
Domestic Program." Johnson's
essay is headed "Solid Achieve
ment Marked 84th Congress."
Mrs. Alex Martin called the
other day to report that she has
been having trouble getting mus
tache wax. She uses the stuff to
slick up her eye brows and
blinkers. She asked her drug
gist how about the shortage? He
told her straight. Mothers are
buying the wax, he said, to
spruce up the "butch and "flat
top" haircuts of their ions.
The Officers Club at the mili
tary headquarters for "Operation
Alert" had a little entertainment
arranged for the brass and the
press.
The brass wasn't much inter
ested and most of them evap
orated for the week end. While
the wheels were away, the stay
behinds played and w.o r k e d
There was dancing and fine
food and levity.
The reporters, committed to a
word budget, let out the word
that some cogs were missing. It
prompted one wag to remark:
"The brass must read the pa
pers. I got word from my paper
that all of them are on their
way back."

Margaret Moran, food editor
of the United Mine Workers
Journal, is forever fascinating.
Discussing picnics, she advises:
"Be sure you bring enough
food . . . best way to estimate
how much to bring is to calculate
more than you think anybody
can eat and then multiply by
two."
George Viverette of the Amer
ican Automobile Association
emergency road service was out
on a job the other day when an
irate old-timer stopped him.
"Here I was stalled," said the
old man. "I telephoned when I
went for my car."
