'The woman's vote is the pot of gold at the end of the
political rainbow." So said a release which Potpourri re
ceived a few days before election. The writer pointed out
that the candidates who court the women's vote get elected,
because there are almost 2 million more potential female
voters in the nation than male voters. 'This is going to get
worse or better, which ever way one chooses to say be
cause women have the annoying habit of living longer than
men.
We had just about decided that women must have elected
Mark Hatfield, because he is young and looks like a movie
star, until this morning we ran down the list of figures on
states which have mone potential women voters than men
and discovered that Oregon isn't one of them. This state is
one which still has more men of voting age. than women,
17,736. Only 15 states in the union are in this list. -
The anonymous writer pointed out that women have
been voting since 1920, have come a long way but that
1958 still finds men enthroned and wielding the political
scepter. The road to political equality is cluttered with left
over prejudices, outmoded customs and traditions.
An example of this is the idea that women's interests
are, or should be, confined to health, education, morality
and delinquency, and that taxes, foreign affairs, agriculture
and labor problems should be left to the men. A little bitter
ly, she (it must have been a woman writing) said "because
of this male notion, political hush puppies are still being
tossed to women just enough to keep them quiet while they
stuff envelopes and knock on doors to get out the vote."
.
And while we're on the subject of voters and figures,
why is it this country lags so far behind in the percentage
of eligible voters who do go to the polls? Tuesday only
69.2 per cent of the voters in Jackson county cast their
votes.'- In such countries as Australia, New Zealand, " Italy
and many more, the vote runs almost 100 per cent. .
Reporters writing from London said that when Queen
Elizabeth opened the fourth session of the 285th Parliament
in Britain, it was a scene of "dazzling brilliance."
Peter Lyne, Christian Science Monitor reporter, said he was
an old hand at ceremonial functions such as coronations and
royal weddings and accustomed to seeing "diamonds in the
mass," but had never before witnessed such a spectacle.
Why? Because for the first time the ceremony was televised
and the 200 peeresses who attended were estimated to have
worn 50,000 diamonds in tiaras, necklaces, brooches, brace
lets and earrings. After all, weren't millions of people watch
ing? The peeresses are seated separately from, their hus
bands, who also presented a colorful picture with their
scarlet robes, ermine capes and coronets.
Queen Elizabeth, wearing magnificent royal jewels, ad
dressed the assemblage, saying "Peoples in other lands will
ment. Outwardly they will see
state; but in their hearts they will surely respond to the
spirit of hope and purpose which inspires our parliamentary
tradition. In this spirit I pray that the blessing of Almighty
God may rest upon your counsels."
Some believed that good will come from permitting
people around the world to see this ceremony, said to be
little changed from the day of the first Queen Elizabeth. One
foreign observer said this was "a fine strike for Western
democracy-" " ' '
The Manchester Guardian took another tone. As a
spectacle," reported the Guardian, "it was outstanding; as
politics or government, it was irrelevant. The Imperial State
Crown; the Cap of Maintenance, the Sword of State, the
Heralds, the Lord Great Chamberlains and Earl Marshals,
make up a beautiful charade, but if all were swept away
tomorrow it would make not the slightest difference to the
country's government. Not that they need be swept away;
they are harmless relics, harmless, that is, so long as nobody
misfckes them for anything significant.
"The fear of timid publicists beforeUhe broadcast was
that the words put into the Queen's mouth might give ad
vantage to the party in power. The fear after the broadcast
may perhaps be a related but different one; that .too many
people may regard the theatrical trappings of the occasion
as more important than Parliament itself. Abroad, of course,
Britain's reputation as an old curiosity shop will be en
hanced, and our tourist earnings may benefit; at home, any
nno rhn was inclined to take refuge in the myth of an
England great and glorious,
the more."

takes turns developing first
one side of his body, then the
other, reports the Better Vis
ion institute.
The baby will use his right
hand, right foot and right eye
in all his movements. Then he
will switch to. the left side of
his body for a few days or a
week, the Institute said.
It is normal for the eye not
in use to go off at an angle.
But the infant should learn to
use both eyes together by
three months or so, the Insti
tute said. If he doesn't, the
child may be cross-eyed, and
a vision specialist should be
consulted.
