"Far quicker and more effec tive steps are needed," the pri mate of ravaged Hungary said "A man who is drowning needs no messagn." Too Much Voting.

There On The Side (Distributed b King History tells u that the Ital ians taught the French how to use fork. The Parts restaurant where forks were first -used is f ftlll in business. That is the Tour I d'Argent, established- in 1532. '. That is, of course, the rastaur- ant now chiefly famous for its ; pressed duck. Every order of : pressed duck is numbered and the name of the diner recorded. Pierpont Morgan in 1924 ete duck Nu. 147.883. Queen Eliza- beth II, on a visit to Paris was . served duck No. 185,197. My name is not on record books of the Tour d'Argent. I don't care for duck, pressed or otherwise. Liquor The French consume more.al- coholic liquor than people of any other nation of the world. The Italians are. second in that respect. Americans are third folr lowed by British, Germans and Danes. Many Frenchmen make , their own liquor. That is, they are "home moonshiners, " .as many Americans were during prohibition days. Remember the references to "bathtub gin?" Dogs It is extremely refreshing and Interesting to note the way the dogs of Paris enjoy themselves. I may borrow a dog and take him for a walk in the Champs Elysees park, just to note his enjoyment. After that I could . take him to FOuquet's Sidewalk cafe for a little snack. Dogs' are welcome in sidewalk cafes here. They can have a chair oX their own if they want it. Woman's Town That Pari is, as repeatedly slated, a "woman's town" is in dicated by the number of full length mirrors available. No woman in Paris is at any time without n opportunity to check completely on her appearance. At the elegant Hotel -George V many of the halls are lined with fall length mirrors. Every room has three or four full length mirrors. There are also closets eveywhere. I have never seen so many closets in hotel rooms as there are in those of the George Fifth.

At one spot called the "Crazy Horse Saloon," which has an "Old United States West" background, they have strip tease dancers who start their act dressed as cowgirls. Bookshops There are more bookshops in Paris than in any other city in the world. Incidentally, it is in teresting to note that the French have never been among the great admirers of Shakespeare. There never has been a complete trans lation of his works published in Paris. His plays are rarely pre sented here. When they are, they are indifferently produced by minor companies. Please Note All race track wagering in France is by the pari-mutuel system. Off-track wagering is possible at branches of the var ious tracks throughout the coun try. In Paris these branches are usually .at Bistros which feature a sign reading "Pari-Mutuel Ici." The results are received at these branches by ticker. Bookmaking is illegal in France. At the track and the off track branches you can wager the equivalent of 15 cents. Some fun, what? Get It Right What Is the distance from the place De La Concorde to the Arc De Triomphe on the Avenue Champs Elysees? That is fre quently the basis of arguments between Americans, particularly war veterans. Get it right. The distance between those two cele brated points of interest is ex actly one and one quarter miles. Shaving In the interest of those among our clients who have tough beards I check on razor blades wherever I go. So far on this trip I have found nothing un usual along that line. Open House was held Friday evening, Nov. 9. . The table was decorated with a chalk stork which held a dia per and a miniature doll in its beak. After Mrs. Perry opened her gifts she was presented with a cake decorated with a large pink and blue umbrella and tiny bootees, which was served with coffee and tea. Among those present were Mrs. Dick Perry, Mrs. Claud Hutton, Mrs. Don Williams, Mrs. Paul Betz, Mrs. Richard Dolan and Miss Cloetta Small-. Mrs. Guy Cobleigh recently re turned from Idaho Falls, Idaho where she visited her daughter and family, Mr. and Mrs. George Wehmann. She went part way by car and part way by plane. She reports that the Wehmanns have moved into a new home which they recently purchased.

Leslie Ballogh-Brain of the North American Newspaper Al liance said Mindszenty escaped from Parliament house only moments before Soviet troops captured the free Hungarian gov ernment there. Ballogh-Brain was the first American corres pondent to reach Vienna from Budapest since Moscow turned its armed might against the re bels. He said Mindszenty views the future "with a great deal of for boding." iHe indicated he be lieved the Cardinal's life is in sarious danger. Another anti Communist leader captured by the Russians is believed to have been summarily executed on the spot. Fears by Churchmen Similar fears were expressed by churchmen in Vienna. Rus sian troops control the city and Budapest radio has singled out the, cardinal as a chief culprit for the uprisings. But travelers said the cardinal had no immediate plans to seek a safe conduct pass to the West, even if it was granted by the puppet Hungarian government. Mindszenty, who was released from a Communist prison only last Wednesday, Oct. 31, said he had "suffered torture in body and soul" at the hands of the Secret Police. "It is God's miracle that I am here and am as I am." He refused to give details of his arrest and imprisonment. o o .

Fraternities, Sororities Balk At Tax Ruling Corvallis U.R) Fraternities and sororities at Oregon's insti tutions of higher learning were reported today to be protesting a recent ruling of the State Tax Commission which compels them to pay personal property taxes. Until now most of the county assessors have assumed that off campus living groups were ex empt from he tax. But the tax commission said there was noth ing on which the assessors could base such an assumption. The question was raised re cently by the Benton county as sessor's office and a ruling came down from the legal department of the tax commission saying the living groups were not ex empt. Tax Steps Taken In both Benton county, home of Oregon State College, and Lane county, site of the Univer sity of Oregon, steps have been taken to put the properties on the tax rolls. Richard Wegener, Benton county assessor, said the tax bill for the OSC groups was being backdated five years as required by law. The five-year bill for the more than 40 organizations comes to about S15.500. The 1956 taxes total $3551.60. At Eugene Lane County Assessor W. W. Smith said he did not know whether the tax was going to be made retroactive. Living groups at Oregon State feel that as the tax has not been imposed up to now and there has been no change in the law, ew lasK-rorce New V8-powered '57 Chevrolet trucks, heavily loaded, made one of the world's toughest roads look easy!

' Herbert G. My children dis like my parents. Virginia G. I never told them anything against their grandparents. Herbert G. I am the father of two young children. I am very much upset about my children's attitude toward my parents. We take them on visits to their grandparents about once a month. The children hate to go. They always say there is something else they want to do. When they get there, they sulk. They won't kiss my parents no matter how hard I try to make them. They won't eat anything in my parents' home, although my mother tries her best to please them. When my wife's mother comes to visit us, as she does several times a year, the kids fall all over her and kiss her. They hate to see her go. I feel that my wife must teach the kids that they have to love all their grandparents. I realize that my parents are a little old-fashioned and the kids find their ways peculiar, but The purchase price of a new Diesel-powered bus is less than two-thirds of the cost of a mod ern street car. it should not be applied now. They have retained Peter Gun ner, Salem attorney, to advise them. They "flattened" Yukon mountains with the most modern truck V8's of all! Chevrolet dealers Ai:ivvB3f display this famous trademark TTP why should they dislike them so? Virginia G. Visits to Her bert's parents are always torture for all of us because he keeps telling all of us all the way how to act and what to say. On the way home, he tells me and the kids every little thing we did that he believes has hurt his parents. I have told the children that they must love all their grand parents equally, but I can't help it if they like my mother best. I don't tell them to kiss her. They do it naturally. The kids have told me that they don't like to go to their grandparents' home because everything smells and tastes fun ny to them there. They say they can't have, any fun because their grandmother always yells that they'll get hurt or dirty the rug. My husband blames me be cause he thinks I never liked his parents. This is partly true, but I never told the chldren anything against them. The Council: Herbert may be hurt and shocked to be told that the children's attitude is partly a reflection of his own and part ly a reaction to his parents' be havior toward them. It is unusual for children to have a physical aversion toward "peculiar" or "old-fashioned" ways unless they have been taught this by some adult. Most children are excited by and in- Six new Task-Force huskies made the run. And six ultra-modern Chevy engines proved their power and performance with gas mileage ranging up to 18.17 miles per gallon! Two of the en gines were not stopped once, and they hummed along at peak effi ciency the entire 1,520 miles! Chevy's big V8's turned in top performance jobs up and down towering grades and through washouts that sucked wheels into hub-deep mud.
