Every spring about the time the atinual horde of tourists starts to descend on Washington, D. C, congressmen begin to deplore and draft bills and newspaper reporters take typewriter in hand and even bus drivers and guards sound off about the habits, deportment and attire of the tourists. The tourist sympathizer is Mrs. Eugene Peterson, who was Ailcen Latham before her marriage and usually called just "A" by her relatives and friends. Mrs. Peterson and her son. Allan, are spending several days in Medford while Mr. Peterson, now chief of the new recreation branch of the Bureau of Land Management, is in Alaska. Potpourri spent a pleasant hour with A and her son talking about Washington and one of the topics was the plight of the tourists. Last summer we re-printcd in this column some material from the Washington Post in which tourists were taken to task for their poor manners and poor taste in clothing while visiting the White House, national shrines and cathedrals. Mrs. Peterson admits that sometimes visitors to the capital do look a little down-al-heels and some of them wear strange attire. In fact, it is the and "kookie" hats by tourists the halls of congress that ducing bills banning shorts. But A has a reasonable defense of the tourists, particularly when they are a mother and father and their children trying to see buildings and monuments and art objects which they believe are a part of their heritage. "It's hard to travel with children and keep everyone "" argues. "Washington's climate Is terrible hot and humid, 'ne "'alllc 15 8 gnasuy mess H l ,. Ihul .in Wuh " "l Families arrive in Washington of time, maybe they don't have on clothes and most of the time they ve driven long distances. They don't know their way about, they have to stand in line to get into such places as the White House, and to take the elevator up in the Washington monument, there's no place to park and it's often fiendishly hot. "I feel sorry for the tourists, especially the families." Mrs. Peterson, a former Girl Scout executive who loves the outdoors, had Just spent a few days at a Lake of the Woods cabin and repeated what practically all Oregonians keep saying for beauty and climate this region is hard to surpass. She even believes that has more Insects and bugs than southern Oregon and said even sunbathing in one's back yard is practically impossible because of the chiggcrs. Because she is interested in government and politics, A says she spends a lot of time attending sessions of Congress and various hearings open to the public. She finds this more interesting than most of the social life which is considered obligatory for those in government work. She finds life in the nation's capital facinating in many ways, but isn't likely I to forget about the joys of small-city and country living in the Far West. Everything Western isn't ing to admit this. The Soviet of approval on corn flakes to cat more of Ihcm according New York Times. Recently Mr. K. made a his people in which he urged and lo include more fried potatoes and corn lakes. He pointed out that Americans and Englishmen "are masters at preparing corn in the form of flakes and that many of them breakfast on corn flakes and milk." He also urged people to eat more canned and fresh corn and peas it seems thai traditionally these products are fed to hogs and cattle by the Russian farmers. Earlier this year the Soviet Union raised prices on meat, eggs and butler by 2ft to 30 per cent in an effort lo stimulate the output of animal products and because this brought about "scare buying" word is being passed about through party channels that further price increases are not con templated. The article also said that the sale of vokda has been eased, and that it is available now in most public eating places, at stadiums and places of amusement rather than in only the belter restaurants as was formerly the rase.
