Jackie Kennedy
Gives Advice
To Other Wives
Seattle- 0JPD -"Travel light
and be prepared for any
thing." Pretty, dark-haired Mrs.
John E. (Jackie) Kennedy,
wife of Massachusetts Demo
cratic senator, offered this ad
vice Friday to wives of other
"undecided" potential presi
dential candiates. -
The Kennedys arrived in
Seattle to begin a three-day,
hand-shaking tour of Wash
ington State. The senator was
the featured speaker at a $25
plate Jackson-Jefferson Day
dinner Saturday.
Not Official
I Although Kennedy isn't of
ficially a candidate for any
thing, many Democrats con
sider him a good possibility
for the 1960 presidential nom
ination. - : '
What Mrs. Kennedy thinks,
nobody knows. ,
During the senator's press
conference, she sat by bis
side, hands folded in her lap.
She seldom smiled or looked
tip as he answered questions.
' Meets Press
Later, she met the press on
her own, in a dimly lighted
hotel lobby. The senator
didn't go to his wife's conference-it
wasn't as large as his,
anyway.
"Better than a double bill,"
'one veteran party member
'said.-
While commenting only,
."you ask him," in regard 4o
'questions about Kennedy's
; presidential aspirations, Mrs.
Kennedy was enthusiastic
I about the joys of being a poli
tician's wife.
; "The best life in the world,"
;she said. "You get to be with,
your husband more than in
" any other kind of work." The
: Kennedys' daughter, Caro
;line, is with grandparents.
'Lots of Cousins
"I've gone with him on
every trip. Besides his parents
to baby-sit, he has so many
-cousins," she added grate
fully. "The biggest chore a poli
tician's wife has, is common
.to all wives-see that your hus
;band takes care of himself,"
she said.
. While Mrs. Kennedy didn't
sa$ it, she neatly demonstrat
ed the absolute "must" for the
"politician's wife - don't talk
politics. ' )

He said the back-zipper
proved itself this spring when

figured it as a natural best

Designer Evelyn Simpson
told him the back zipper had
been ruled out, so that the
big collar need not be split.
Zipper Brings Sales
"That's what's wrong," said
the manufacturer. "Split the
collar and put a zipper up the
back." He said he sold 100,

From his visits to the

Says Cassini
New York OJPD Designer
Oleg Cassini has posed a seri
ous question: What is being
done to encourage, train and

industry is the fourth largest
in the United States, it is not
"facing up to its responsibili
ties of supplying fresh blood,"
Cassini said in a newsletter.
A sleepwear firm has
designed a new waistband
that eliminates uncomfortable
bunching about the ddle."
The band is self-adjusting, and
smooth fitting, and is used in

High - fashion" c olon and
styles, formerly taboo in chil
dren's shoes, have turned up
in small-fry styles, says manu
facturer Herbert Posner. The
"stiletto toe" influence has
led to tapered toes for young
sters. A new swivel strap
makes shoes look and fit like
Mother's strapless pumps. For
boys, the "Continental look
has inspired tapered toes and
slim shoes, Posner added.
Little girl's shoes have taken
to high-fashion colors, and
boys' shoes to black. The colle
giate influence has given the
pre-school set such shoes as
white buck, grey buck and
Loden green buck with crepe
rubber soles.
