faml To Initials Growing In Nation * ’I t • f ' * , By DICK.VEST United Breta Jattq>Hti>aial WASHINGTON- (UPI) — There ha* been some talk this year of creating a new government department to (to for the city dweller what the Agriculture Department does for the farmer. A* a city dweller myself, I view tills proposal with some misgivings. I am not certain that I want to have done tor me what has been done for the farmer. Most of the problems in a city spring from surplus population. If the government tried to handle that the way it has handled surplus farm production, it could lead to some rather involved situations. For instance, I wouldn’t mind being paid for not producing any more children, the way farmers are paid for not producing crops. But on the other hand. I wouldn't be especially keen about

plowing under the ones I’ve already tot Suggest Naaae Some of those who proposed setting up the new agency suggested that it be called the “Department of Urban and Municipal Problems.’’ Then they abruptly withdrew their suggestion. i They did so after someone obs served that the abbreviation for ■ Department of Urban and Municipal Problems would be • “DUMP.” As you can see, the sponsors ■ of the proposal were not in step with this age of the organization man. Had they been in step, they would have known that they were doing things backwards. Nowadays, it is considered bad form to give first consideration to a name. What you do now is start out with an abbreviation. Then you think up a name that will fit it. The “initials first” trend started, as best I can tell, about 15 years ago with the formation of a post-war relief program. Someone apparently decided that “CARE” would be a fine abbrevi-

- ation for the organization. So, after a great deal of brain straining, they managed to come iup with a name to match - the abbreviation, “Cooperative for - American Remittances to Europe” 1 was the result. ‘ Initials Stay Later the name was changed to - “Cooperative for American Relief r Everywhere,” which broadened - the scope of the program while » preserving the original initials. Since the advent of CARE, all s sorts of initialized groups have > come into being. None, I suspect, i was named until after it had been r abbreviated. : We have a medical relief ship project called “HOPE” (Health I Opportunity for People Every- > where), which is not to be coni fused with “COPE” (Committee . on Political Education). : Good Samaritan physicians go overseas for “MEDICO” (Medical ■ International Cooperation Organii zation) and the National Council : of Churches Sponsors “CROP” (Christian Rural Overseas Pro- : gram).

: Daily Question To Girls Over Age 25 By GAT PAULET , UPI Weinen’B Editor [ , NEWYORK (UPI) — Any girl j who is still single after her age , has skidded past 35 faces daily the question, “Why don’t you get [ married?” t And any girl in this category long since has come up with at ’ least one quick answer. Some females I know have conjured , several replies ranging from a , practical “I’m waiting for a millionaire” to the cagey “Nobody’s ever asked me,” ar “I don’t want ’ to be tied down.” This column is grateful for a > 1 was confined to national organizations until last October when it 1 reached the regional level. That ’ was when some people in Atlanta • formed an anti-integration group named “GUTS” (Georgians Un- ; willing to Surrender).

thorough look into the "wny aon t < yoii” or “why didn’t you” to 1 Annie Lee Singletary, in her “Something for the Girls” appear- ; ing in the Winston Salem (N.C.) Journal and Sentinel. As Annie Lee, a southern belle ' of immense charm and good looks sees it, a girl always can answer, “I just didn’t want to spoil a beautiful friendship.” Or, she can say, “I didn’t want to lose my amateur standing.” But Miss Singletary points out that these answers will only delay, not stop the inquisitor. She tells of'one girl friend who I replies, “I’m polygamous by nature. Those who know what I - mean seem to think it’s a good : answer; those who don’t know the ■ meaning just decide that maybe I’m afflicted with something that ■ shouldn’t be mentioned in mixed company.” Another bachelor girl of Annie : Lee’s acquaintance just looks into ; the eye of the woman who’s aski ing and replies, “I never HAD i to!” Miss Singletary’s column tells what she one day plans to spring

on we luiiiaiu utcuu whu w flaunt her married prosperity. “I’m going to say, Tour husband asked me—first.” “How.” says Annie Lee, “was I to know that he’d one day be aWe to afford a mink stole?" Maybe you are working on some pat answer*, to the “Why don’t you get married?” query. If so, let us hear—you may have a comeback no one else thought of. It should be shared. Come to think of it, why is it single MEN never have to answer such questions! Paint on Flowerpots Paint seems to have away of blistering and peeling off red clay flowerpots, as any housewife knows. To remedy this be sure the pot is absolutely clean and free of moisture. Then paint the INSIDE with aluminum paint, and let dry hard. Finish the OUTSIDE with a high grade of enamel and let harden throughly before filling the pot with soil. Patent Leather Orange juice make* an excellent polish for patent leather.
