Mrs. Palladay revieved the
history of the National Federa
tion of Republican Women's
clubs, saying that it was or
ganized in 1937. The federa
tion now has clubs in every
state but one-Vermont-and
the 40,000 clubs have more
than half a million members.
"Women carry the load in
the continuing struggle for
better government," she said.
Mrs. Palladay said the free
dom of America is "being
usurped'' and she urged her
listeners to study the consti

are granted under this docu

government instead of hats,"

Mrs. Palladay emphasized

with the federation must be
open to any Republican wom
an "regardless of race, creed
or color." She said club mem
bers must learn to distinguish
between discussion and argu
ment. "Republicanism stress
es the dignity of man," she
declared. "If you want the
same kind of life for your
children and grandchildren as
you have had, work in the
Republican party to preserve
this way of life," she added.

By JEANNE LESEM
United Press International
New York -Walter Reade
Jr., may have discovered how
to keep 'em down on the farm
after they've eaten in Paree.
He foresees for American
suburbia chains of fine con
tinental restaurants located in
the most convenient spot possible-shopping
centers.
The motion picture distrib
utor and restaurateur launch
ed his first such dining spot
in a shopping center near the
junction of two busy high
ways in Paramus, N.J., about
35 minutes from the heart of
Manhattan.
The Continental, an ele
gantly decorated restaurant
with three dining rooms and
a barJounge, will rub elbows
with supermarkets and with
branches of big city depart
ment stores. However it bears
no resemblance to the usual
chain eatery, Reade said in an
interview.
Like elegant European res
taurants, it will serve both
lunch and dinner. It also will
be open for late evening sup
pers for theater-goers.
The bill of fare will feature
specialties of many nations.
And not just the more famil
air foreign dishes, such as
veal parmigiano or coq au
vin, although these entrees
will be offered from time to
time. Diners who like to ex
periment may try osso bucco,
a veal stew in wine sauce, or
flaming sword entrees.
Reade said the project was
inspired by traveling Ameri
cans who developed a taste
for many foreign cuisines
during vacation and business
trips abroad. For convenience
he plans to locate. restaurants
to satisfy these tastes in the
centers that are drawing more
and more suburbanites away
from city shopping trips.
Although the chic new din
ing rooms will concentrate on
the dinner trade, they also
will offer moderately priced
lunches for the busy house
wife who wants a restful
break in the middle of her
day's shopping.
Industrial executives whose
companies have joined the
decentralization trek to the
suburbs, will be able to lunch
in style and privacy. At noon,
one of the Continental's three
dining rooms will become a
private key club for men,
with an elaborate buffet
menu.
The decor of all the three
rooms differs, but they can
be made into one large room
by sliding panel dividers.
Closed, the private club is a
study in oak-paneling and
polished wood rafters, with a
modern fireplace and a pano
ramics mural.
The Appian dining room is
done in Italian style, in tones
of Pompeiian red (a deep, rich
red), soft gray -blue, and
creamy white. A brick wall
and two glass walls, statuary
and plants give the effect of
outdoor dining.
The third - and smallest -
room, with French motii, is
the Esplanade, done in shades
of cream, sepia and brown in
styles dating back to the 15th
and 16 centuries.
The man who maintains
there is nothing like a good
slice of rare roast beef will
get it while it's hot and at
peak flavor, directly from a
cart wheeled up to his table,
in the manner of one of Lon
don's famous restaurants. A
fancier version, filet de boeuf ,
with wine sauce, also will be
available.
Served in an elaborate set
ting to match the food, this
experiment in suburban din
ing may sound too rich for
the average family's budget.
Reade insists this is not so.
"Americans no longer want
a diet of hamburger and
French fries in a sea of ket
chup," explained the motion
picture distributor and res
taurateur. "Dining out is an
event, especially for people
who have traveled abroad,
and eaten at some of Europe's
finest restaurants.
"But they don't want to
come to town, so we'll take
luxury restaurants to them."

National PTA President
Mrs. James C. Parker, Grand

Birney and Phoebe Apperson j
Hearst were mc-ved by the
plight of the nation's children
and decided to do something
about it. - ;
The two women Mrs. j
Birney was the wife of an at-1
torney and a mother and Mrs. !
Hearst was widow of Calif- j
ornia Sen. George Hearst :
Called a meeting of "all moth- j
ers" to do something to im
prove the child's lot.
From the first meeting, at
tended by 2,000 men and
women, the PTA has spread
from coast to coast until to
day it has more that 11 mil
lion members in the 49 states,
Hawaii and at military bases
overseas.
