Chauffeur Gels Way But Loses His Job London - ll'PD - The five-foot-tall chauffeur glared at his titled millionaire boss and said tersely, "Either you walk home or I do." Sir Robert Mayer, the boss, a 79-year-old philanthropist, scowled back at chauffeur Bob McConnell, opened the door of the gleaming Rolls Royce and walked home.

DimgirDd Seirgmraaims Story Editor's not: This Is the third cf five dispatches in which Ingrid Bergman talks of her life, her re grets and her hopes as she revealed them to a British newsman who was her guest for two weeks in Wales. Today Miss Bergman recalls her own childhood, and the "night mare" that began for her when she left Hollywood and her husband to join Roberto Rossellini and bear his child out of wedlock. By RALPH COOPER Written for UPI "I had a good childhood," Ingrid Bergman said quietly. "Nobody beat me; we were not rich, but we did not starve." She had started by saying that as a child she lived in a world of her own, and I asked about that. "I was very often very lone ly as a child," she said. "My mother died when I was two, my father when I was twelve. , "I went to live with an aunt and a , year later she died in my arms . . . and I rang and rang for help and nobody came. "Perhaps those experiences helped to make me whatever I am today. I don't say you have to suffer to learn to be tolerant . . .,but I am sure that if you do .have to suffer, then it helps you to under stand other people better." , Ingrid adored her father. "He was a painter and a musician and he . had been away from Sweden to study." She waved her arms toward the Welsh hills. "How he would have- loved all this : . . He would have been up hers painting it . . and loving every minute of.it." Lived With Uncle . After her" father and her aunt died, Ingrid went to live with an uncleand his family and uncle, unlike father, had not travelled.- He also viewed young Ingrid, .'at thirteen, as a "grave responsibility." Ingrid chuckled at the thought of .those days, al though when she had to live through them there were many times when she was nearer to tears than laughter. "I sometimes wonder how my father and his brothers and sisters happened at all, because his parents were so very strict. Everything was a sin! "Music, except sacred mu sic, was sinful, so was danc ing . . . And for the girls it OCTOIBEK TOY LAYAWAY SALE! STARTS OCT. 1 Lasts All Month!

INGRID BERGMAN Longed for Theater was sinful to look at another man. I guess it was the same sort of thing you had in Vic torian times. "My uncle had not traveled much and he shared my grandparents' ideas. "I remember him comiftg into my room on one Sunday when I was mending my clothes and tidying up my af fairs, and thundering at me, 'This is sinful ... No work shall be done in this house on a Sunday.' Uncle Relents "When I told him I wanted to go on the stage' you can imagine the reception that idea received. 'The theater,' he declared, 'will not be men tioned in this house.' "My father left a photo graphic business in Stock holm and I could have gone into that . .". but I knew there was only one life for me. I cried and cried, and said I would commit suicide. I plead ed . with him that I was en tertaining people, giving them pleasure .

Beak ley turned over command of the U.S. 7th Fleet to his suc cessor Tuesday with the wish that America's powerful West ern Pacific armada included an old fashioned battleship "I have high regards for the battleship," Beakley told newsmen after he relinquish ed command of the fleet to Vice Adm. . Frederick N. Kivette. "It's nice to have: a 16-inch gun when a 12-inch gun is shooting at you," Beakley said. After the change of com mand ceremony on the wind swept flight deck of this 60,000 -ton aircraft carrier, Kivette - told newsmen, "as long as Communism is in this world we will have trouble." them feel happy or so moved emotionally that it was some thing they would remember all their lives. "In the end the poor man relented. He said, because he could not bear to see me cry, I might try for the state drama scholarship when. I had finished my ordinary studies . . . 'and after that, we will have no more talk of the theater,' he added om inously. "If I had been one of his own children he might have been easier . . . but I wasn't. I was the little orphan for whom he bore a grave re sponsibility and there seemed absolutely no chance at all of my ever doing anything sin ful! Proud of Her "My uncle thought he was on to a good thing with that state scholarship. They only accepted about seven students a year and the competition was terrific. "When I went to him and told him I had passed and please could I talk about the theater now his whole world seemed to .collapse around him. . "And here I am," said In grid with one of her happiest laughs,. "living a 'life of sin' and thoroughly enjoying every minute of it!" "What happened to uncle?" I asked. "Before he died, he saw Holmes Opposes State Gasoline Tax Increases : Salem-TOPD-Gov. Robert D. Holmes has taken a. strong ly in opposition to any increase stand in opposition to any in crease in the state' gasoline tax or vehicular license fees. The governor spoke at a public meeting sponsored by the Salem Labor council. He said he was opposed to any increase above the present levels of either the gasoline tax or vehicular license fee "unless and until it' has been demonstrated that such in creases are absolutely neces sary." Can-Meet Demands - The governor said that Ore gon could meet the demands for an expanded highway pro gramvithout the increase. The increase has been pro posed by the Legislative In terim Committee on High ways. Holmes said it was a mat ter of public knowledge that the federal government "con templates" proposing sharp in creases in taxes on automobile-sales to finance national highway construction pro grams. ' ' Merry-Go-Round Holmes said the commit tee's proposal was - for . taxa tion on the same items for the same . purpose. "It becomes evident that we shall have embarked on a merry - go round of increasing taxes at one level which forces us to increase taxes at another level in order to .secure the contingent benefits for which we earlier submitted to ' in creased taxes at the original level," he said. The governor said this, was neither "sensible nor neces sary ."-He suggested the com mittee examine and identify the actual highway needs be fore proceeding with a taxa tion plan. . me in one of my early Swed ish films and said, I am proud of you!" "I am so glad my father took me to the theater before he died. Because I was able to tell him I wanted to be an actress . . . and he knew and understood. He used to go round telling his friends proudly, 'My Ingrid is going to be an actress.' And that meant so much to me . . . not only then, but many, many times since. "Once I had been to the theater I knew that was the world where I belonged . . . the world of make-believe. "I hated school because I was taller than the others and wakward and shy. And I was lonely always." Helped By One Man A different kind of loneli ness began for Ingrid Berg man when Hollywood, slam med the door in her face. It was a nightmare that eventually drove her ' to de cide: "I will definitely retire and give up the greatest love of my life acting." One man brought, her out of that nightmare and back to world fame . . and a Mo tion Picture Academy Oscar. "The man was Anatole Lit vak," Ingrid told me. Many other people are said to have been responsible, but it was Anatole. "He came to see me one day and said 'I want to make a picture with you.' It was 'Anastasia.' I knew the story already, had read a lot. about it, so he did not even have to show me a script. "Anatole was convinced, and convinced me, that I could make an international come-back. He had complete faith that time healed any wounds, and was willing to stake a fortune on it. I "I told Anatole 'You get the film together, and I'm with you.' He .went to Darryl Zanuck and' the' film ' that brought ; me the . Oscar " was made." ' ..... f. . I asked Ingrid i Bergman why 'her .own. people . should have' joined so viciously" in condemning her when she first went to Italy with Ros sellini. ' ' . t r Could Not Understand "You must, remember, .. I was married to a Swede So they 'did not like it that I should -leave him - for an Italian, whom -they - would find dificult to understand anyway. . i "You must remember - the old fairy, tale . . . about the king who lined all his people up . . . and cut off the 'heads, of all ; the-tall-' ones -so that, nobody should be biggerfthan anyone else?" That was how it was in Sweden. It was hot right to-be- different. J "I found that bitter 'anti' feeling very difficult to - un derstand at the. time, because there is so much that is really great about my second hus band, Roberto- A veryimuch more complex and different person to understand . i . but in so many ways a great man an exciting person to live with. 1 "Those who met us together said 'Ah, now we understand' . . . and I'used to say "thank you very much ... I hope you will tell everybody. el$e!' "I'm "so glad I" left Ameri ca when I did. If it hadn't happened .the way it pid it would . have happened! some other way. It .was like an SOS.
