i IPnTtpiHirir5 'We Methodists have something to account fof In Chiang Kai-shek" admitted Mrs. Annalee Stewart of Washington, u. c., when sh spoke for the United Nations' chapter here lagt Saturday nicht. Mm Stewart whn ie lriclttr Ktrm. ttry-polite term for a lobbyist in her case-for the Women's iniernauonal League for Peace and Freedom, believes that somewhere along the years since his conversion to Christian ity the Chinese Generalissimo lost his perspective and now oniy to maintain his own power, rfrdleS Of th consequences to the rest of the world. in word "lobbyist" still ha a distasteful sound tp many, in spite of the fact that actually anyone who attempts to change the thinking and possible voting of a legislator is in a sense a lobbyist. In Mts. Stewart's case, she not only has the reputation of being a hard-working and efficient lobbyist, but is a Methodint mining whn i ro-nantnr at Washington, D. C. church with her husband. From the lec ture platform she gives the impression of being a calm, well-informed person' with a deep sense of urgency about cnanging xne winking of the wdrld from war td peace. ; Mrj. Stewart started her speech by warning her audience that many persons might not like what she would say, that she might even shock some, but that she was telling the truth. Mrs. Stewart told about how a delegation of ciuzens representing seven states of the union and bear ing a petition with 10,000 signatures asking for cessation of the nuclear tests was refused admittance to the White House. The delegation was told, she laid, that President Eisenh6wer's calendar was too full to oermit them anv time. Permission was then sought to present the petition to some member of his staff. This also was refused. The dele gation at length handed the petition, with 10,000 names, td the guard at the White House gate. Imagine the emotions of the members of the delegation: she said, when that night on television they saw the Presi- oent pnotographed with representatives of the baseball . manufacturers of America receiving as a gift the millionth baseball-or something of the sort. Following the meeting Potpourri questioned Mrs. Stewart about this further. "The Women's International League of Peace and Freedom has been organized for 43 years," Mrs. Stewart said. "President Eisenhower is the first president of the United States to refuse to see anyone representing our organization." The league, it might be pointed out here, was founded by Jane Addams, distinguished social worker and humani tarian wh received the Nobel Peace prize for her work. Mrs. Stewart said that the peace delegation was event ually received by Congresswoman Edith Green of Oregon. (Mrs. Stewart added that Mrs. Green is considered by many in Washington to be the ablest of the congresswomen now serving in the capital. She further said that regardless of politics and personalities, Senator Wayne Morse of this state has performed a great service for this nation, particu larly in the field of civil liberties.) Mrs. Stewart did repeat something which shocked Potpourri. She reminded her audience that only a few days ago, Madam Chiang Kai-shek had said, in a nation-wide broadcast in this country, that she (Madame Chiang) en couraged the United States to bomb the people of Red China. "The Chinese are her own people," said Mrs. Stewart. "What kind of a woman is she?" Mrs. Stewart, it might be said, displayed a muchtmore humanitarian attitude toward the Generalissimo and his wife. When questioned about the fate of the two should the United States withdraw its support, Mrs. Stewart said they should not be turned over to the People'! Republic officials on the mainland, for they would surely be executed. ' instead, Mrs. Stewart declared that since the Chiang Kai-sheks have a private fortune, and own a large and comfortable home in this country, she believed they should be permitted to spend their declining years here if the turn of events should force them to leave Formosa. Mrs. Stewart's organization believes that eventually the For- mosans should be permitted to vote on whether or not they want Chiang in their country. Formosa, the speaker said, is one of this nation's important bases-one of 950 in 73 countries of the world, according to WlL. Potpourri listened to quite another type of speaker Tuesday night-Emily Kimbrough, well known author and lecturer who if simply a fabulous teller of stories. When examined in the light Of the morning after, La Kimbrough's stories aren't much funnier than others-she just tells them funnier. The - stories which she told from the platform were utterly hilarious, but the ones she told at a party later given by the Dan Hulls were even better. For instance, how she was "wired for sound" when she and her family were on one of Ed Murrow's shows. It was news to most of those who heard her talk in the Hull living room-and had been a surprise to Miss K. at the time of the appearance that the technicians In charge of such television programs arrange wires, a microphone and two batteries under the subject's clothing. The men tactfully explained to MisS Kimbrough what they must do and said she could choose either to do the "wiring" herself, with them giving in structions from around the corner, or give them permission to do the work. The bewildered author asked what was Usual and one :f the men said the only celebrity ever to refuse to let him "wire" her was Marilyn Monroe. Miss Kimbrough said she finally told them to go ahead and her description Of the process had the entire roomful of listeners howling with laughter. "Every technician who went by me for the next few 1 hours stuck his hand down the back of my neck to turn : switches on or off or adjust batteries," she recalled. "When I was on' every move I made and everything I said went MAIL TRIBUNE, Mifori, Oragm, ThuriJiyOetoW t, 19SS V i V ""3 I h i' J If You Want to Look Younger Use Purplish-Red Lighting Throughout the entire United States October is observed as parant-iaaehtr association membership month.

Br PATRICIA McCORMICK United Press International " New York-dTD-If you want to look 10 year younger, be seen only in places where lights give off a purplish-red hue. A man who's been influenc ing human behavior with col or for 21 years said he has documentary proof that the dynamic suggestion really works "And if you doubt it," ad ded Howard Ketcham, "flood your bathroom with purplis red and look in the mirror." The consultant has origi nated color and design plans for every make of car, for fountain pens, caskets, super markets, railroads, the tele phone company and for just about every industry. . Color affects more than ap pearance. It can, said the ex pert, tattle on your psyche. And the 'colors in your envi ronment influence you to a startling degree. See Fear In Grey The popularity of the grey flannel suit along Madison avenue, advertising row, is a. sign to Ketcham that the men who wear it fear the client. He said: "Grey is a mousey color. It doesn't offend. It fades into the background. These men know they can't offend the client or overshadow him." Some years ago, the Black- friars Bridge in London was repainted from black to green. With the color change Ketch am noted, came a 33 per cent rdeuction in the number of suicides there. " When a supermarket want-J ea to do something to perk up sales in luxury foods, a subtle arrow design in red - was worked into the floor cover ing. It pointed at the luxury foods and, said Ketcham, the sub-conscious of shoppers re sponded. ' Sales zoomed.' Yellow Good for Work In an office, Ketcham said, the coldness of pale green walls frequently gives girls the chills. In one office the5 girls shed their jackets and sweaters after the chairs were dressed in orange. The tem perature hadn't changed, but but they felt warmer. Other points made by Ketcham: v -An olive green room is comforting to persons with ulcers. Yellow - w alls -increase brain activity and make a person feel good, wide awake. -Donations increase when charities use pale blue-green envelopes in their mail solici tations. -Red stimulates pulse, brain and appetite. -At dinner parties, the purplish-red that makes a person look ten, years younger also stretches the beverages. "At least," said Ketcham, "most persons relax faster."
