ABOARD THE S.S. BRASIL AT
SEA (API It is nice lor every
good girl to learn three things
early in life.
They are: how to play the piano,
how to sit down gracefully without
showing her knees, and how
to swim.
Two of these ladylike accom
plishments are presently impos
sible for our daughter, Tracy Ann.
At the age of five she is all knees,
and she beats a piano as il it
were a drum.
But she has achieved the third
feat. She has learned to swim, and
In our family this now ranks as
the greatest victory at sea since
Trafalgar.
At first I was dubious about
taking Tracy on this maiden voy
age of the new Mooremack liner
Brasil to South America.
"She'll miss nearly three full
weeks of kindergarten," I objected
to my wife. "Getting off to a good
start in kindergarten is highly im
portanl."
"Well," replied Frances, a bit
acidly, "I think with luck she'!
be able to overcome the handicap
by the time she enters college."
We finally made a compromise.
Tracy could come along if she
agreed faithfully each day to keep
up with her kindergarten home
work paper scissoring and water
coloring. You can't afford to fall
behind in these vital subjects. If
you don't learn to cut out paper
dolls in kindergarten, you'll never
learn it at Radcliff.
A modern ship at sea is a won
derful and exciting world to a
child. Because she is merry and
friendly, people like to spoil
Tracy. She quickly became an un
official crew mascot.
One night at dinner she gravely
eonlided to slaff. Capl. Robert H.
Bradsell: "My five best friends
are all captains. There's you, and
Johnny and three others."
Investigation disclosed Johnny
and the olhcr three "captains"
were all bellboys. To Tracy there
was no distinction. She still ranks
people by, the way they smile
rather than by the gold braid they
wear.
From the first day she look to
the children's swimming pool like
a porpoise, and her nose spiouled
a new freckle an hour under the
hot soulhern sun as she struggled
valiantly to swim.
She was absolutely heedless of
the danger of drowning, but the
pool guard said: "The less afraid
they arc of the waler. the quicker
they start swimming."
One ailernoon she simply pushed
away from the pool wall and set
out for the other side, her small
paws flailing the water like those
of a skinned poodle.
She made Ihe other side and
turned a woman (lushed with
the exultation of a major triumph
and immediately swam back.
She swallowed less than half the
contents of the pool on the way.
Watching from an upper deck. 1
didn't know whether to laugh or
cry. It was a landmark moment
for daddy o, too.
The next day she entered a
swimming race for beginners and
won over a 10-year-old opponent.
"That wasn't easy," she said
lalrr, still breathless. "Ten-year-old
girls have awful long arms."
Now every day she insists that
her mother and I enter the water,
too. and take swimming lessons
from hrr. It does no good lor me
to point out I've been swimming
for more than ,10 years and. bad
as I am. probably won t ever get
much hclter.
Must watch me and do like 1
do." says Tracy confidently. "If
you're gotnn to learn to do some
thing, ou nucht as well learn how
to do it really right."

WASHINGTON i.ptThe Bed
Chinese law a good c hance to put
the heat on. and took it.
That seems a reasonable guess
since nobody knows lor sure
why the Communists suddenly
broke their own self-imposed
cease fire in the Formosa Strait
and resumed shelling (Juemoy.
They began Ihe shelling last
August, quit for a week l.i days
ago. extended Ihe cease-lire to
next weekend and suddenly cut
loose again Monday.
Secretary of Stale Dulles and
his associates had decided that
Ihe Iteds. alter olcring their
own ceasefu e for two weeks
would make it permanent Wh.il
the Beds did Monday shattered
any complacency Dulles bad on
this score.
It was Ihe Reds' way of thumb
ing their nose at him.
There's no doubt it was meant
to embarrass him before he could
land on Formosa to talk uilh
Chiang Kai-shek about the fuluir
of Quemoy. The Communists were'
plainly saying they were the ones
who'd call the shots.
also be placed on their sudden
action:
To put pressure on Dulles just
in case he had the idea they had
initiated the cease-fire out of
weakness to make more conces
sions than he might have thought
necessary if he were taking a
permanent cease-fire for granted
now.
It could have been meant to
push him harder into pressuring
Chiang into cutting down National
ist forces on the Quemoy and
Matsu islands, both near the
China coast, and eventually per
haps into abandoning them to the
Communists i' a cease-fire be
comes permanent.
The Communists may have had
American politics in mind as an
added inducement to Dulles to
make concessions to obtain a
cease-fire and prevent the possi
bility of war.
At this moment President Eisen
hower, campaigning for Republi
cans in the November elections
is claiming with pride that his ad
ministration has managed to pre
serve peace.
Any fierce activity around Que
moy between now and election
day would make peace look pre
carious. But if the reasons for the Com
munist shellings of Quemoy, both
original and resumed, are not
clear, neither are Dulles' reasons
for going halfway around the
world to sec Chiang.
There have been guesses on
that, loo: that he wants to assure
Chiang of continued American
support, at least in the defense
of Formosa; that perhaps he
wants to persuade Chiang to cut
down his forces on Quemoy and
maybe later abandon them.
There have been plenly of pres
sures on Dulles and Eisenhower
to work out a solution ior Quemoy
without getting into war with Rod
China and possibly with the Soviet
Union.
Both men had been admant in
their determination not to yield an
inch to the Reds' under threat of
force. They said it was a matter
of principle not to do so.
But they lound they had a lot
less than 1(10 per cent support at
home or among American allies
abroad for their determination to
defend a couple of small islands
which could hardly he claimed as
essential to Ihe defense of For
mosa ilsell.
The Communist cease-fire, even
on a temporary basis, came as a
welcome relief.
The Beds may do themselves
some damage in world opinion by
resuming the shelling. They had
slopped the shooting for humani
larian reasons, they said, to let
the people and troops on Quemoy
get supplies from Formosa.
They put on one condition: that
American warships wouldn't es
cort the supply ships. Monday
they gave as their reason for re
suming the shelling the claim
denied by this country that
American ships again were escort
ing. The Beds lett this up to the
world to believe or not.

NEW YoliK i AIM The ques
tion of who's to blame (or the
high cost of living is being de
bated with more heat today.
Businessmen are bringing up
the ticklish matter of what they
term labor's responsibility for,
and indiflerence to. nidation.
Labor is just as loud in denun
ciation o( business pricing practices.
Part of the urgency of the de-
bale today is the growing belief
that living uists will rise, even
higher some months Irom now as
inllationary psychology spreads
Irom Wall Street to main street
A group of leading industrialists
have placed hclore the Commerce
Department's 80-man Business Ad
visory Council, meeting in Hot
Springs, Va., the charge against
labor.
The council's Labor Policy Com
mittee says that "compulsory
membership yields a monopoly of
the labor market and is the
source of the economic power of
union olficials."
It fears that labor's political
power may lead the next Congress
to follow union officials' "ideolo
gics and proposals which result
in inflation, concentration of pow
er in central gvernment, damage
to progress and withering of free
dom."
Increased wages negotiated this
year are boosting the costs of do
ing business, the industrialists
hold, and making further price
hikes likely.
Another group, studying U. S.
monetary policies at a meeting
of the American assembly at Ar-
den House, also has taken a stab
at placing the blame for the rise
in the cost of living in the last
two years.
ft said that both business and
labor share in the blame, and did
nothing to halt inflation, but
helped instead to spread it through
their complacency.
In their final report the 60 rep

cd that monetary policy alone
couldn't ward off the growing
threat of lurlher inflation.

labor unions, big business, and

Some of the participants thoughl
hey saw increasing evidence that
business and union leaders are at

their basic interest in a sound dollar.
Others could see no such signs

VA pointed out that this would

Social security payments are in

Thus, a veteran entitled to cither
compensation or pension would
waive his pension in order to col

The new law allows the payment

LONDON (AP) The strange
case of the man who is not run
ning for Parliament has been
solved at last. It is now known
that he will cease shaking hands
around the end of November.
This man, who for our purposes
may be called Frank Baker, is
always standing around street cor
ners shaking hands with various
residents of the' suburb. He works
hard at it. and the conclusion was
reached that he must be seeking
lo win friends for political ends,
Sears the janitor was asked to
confirm this.
Hah!" snorted Sears. "The
only thing he's running (or is to
be the richest man in Hampstead.
that s the local street book
maker."
Frank, a tall, red-taccd fellow
in his 5l)s, is a genial sort, hut it
was suggested that this hardly ex
plained .his compulsion to shake
hands. It was noted that he had
even been seen shaking hands
with some people twice within an
hour so.
"You arc a green one, aincha?"
said Sears. "Whenever Frank
shakes hands he puts his hand
back into his pocket with a piece
ol paper and some money in it.
Ihe paper has the name of a
horse written on it. The money is
a bet on the horse."
The American observer re
marked in shocked tones that
such cash betting is against the
law.
"It may be illegal, but it ain't
immoral," snapped Sears. "Have
a flutter on a hqrse now and then
yourself, don't you?"
The reply was uwde that any
such bets are telephoned lo a
bookmaker on a credit basis. Set
tlementsusually in favor of the
bookie arc made weekly by
check through the mails. This is
UK) per cent legal under British
statutes.
"Certainly," said Scars. "But to
open a credit account you have to
give a banking reference. A work
ing type like me can't give a
banking reference because he
hasn't never had nothing in the
hank. But illegal or not. I got just
as much right to hot the horses
as you have. That's where Frank
comes in."
It was recalled that Frank usu
ally shakes hands like mad on the
day of a big race, such as the
Epsom Derby. But on the follow
ing morning he seems to shake
hardly any hands at all.
"On the day of the race," Sears
explained patiently. "He is taking
bets. On the following morning he
is paying olf the winners."
"He stops taking bets when the
flat racing season ends in Novem
ber." said Sears. "Says too many
(avorites win over the jumps dur
ing the winter. So during the win
ter months you never see Frank
haking hands."
