JOHNSON'S APPOINTMENT OF WOMEN GETS VOTES
€VERY LADY NAMED AIDS THE PRESIDENTIAL IMAGE
By HENRY CATHCART
Central Press Washington Writer TCTASHIXGTOX—^President Johnson has succeeded In winning W countless potential votes through his emphasis on appointing women to federal government executive positions. There’s no way of telling now, but it could prove out in November that he attracted thousands of women’s votes for each lady he has placed
is a government job.
Just the other day he killed two political birds with one stone. He not only appointed a woman to assist Sargent Shriver in his anti-poverty work, but the woman was one of the best-known Negro
educators in the United States.
No sooner had he worked this coup than he used a good-natured needle on his Republican opponents by jokingly referring to Sen. Margaret Chase Smith’s now moribund campaign to win the GOP presidential nomination. Without mentioning Mrs. Smith’s name, Johnson told a group in Washington to promote equal pay: “If it will not be taken as an interference in the effort of a certain party
to decide upon a certain nominee this year, I place
I will say that I believe that there are women today with the capacity to be president.” Apparently Johnson is out to demonstrate that the Democratic Party is the only politi-
cal organization that is really doing something about elevating
■•'"the status of the ladies.
in this matter as recently as last month (May) when delegates to the 35th annual convention in New York reaffirmed — by a unanimous vote — its previous endorsement of the
rose.”
The hearing had seven witnesses who favored the rose. A total of 14 witnesses appeared before the subcommittee for the five candidates under consideration for the honors.

meant her.
One of the organizations that
testified, the Florist Telegraph Delivery Association, did not report in favor of any of the contenders, but presented the results of its National Flower Election, conducted late in 1959. Truman Fossum, director of marketing research for FTD, stated that of 1,055,629 persons polled, the rose was in first
with 386,841 votes. It
polled more than twice the votes of its nearest competitor,
the carnation.

• POLICE DOGS FOR CAPITOL COPS?—The use of dogs by police forces in many cities has become a matter of bitter controversy, primarily because they have been turned against racial demonstrators in some parts of the South. However, as any cop who has a dog as an escort will tell you, they’re comforting things to have around on a dark night in a tough district. However, their controversial nature makes it somewhat surprising that Congress’ own police probably will be authorized to make use of the dogs. There has been an increasing number of muggings and attacks on the grounds of the Capitol at night, making it an uncomfortable place for legislators and their staffs
who find it necessary to work late often.
You can be certain of one thing, however. The dogs will be few in number, handled by experienced officers, and there’ll be a lot of indoctrination on conditions under which any dog should be unleashed on a criminal suspect. After all, no one wants to be responsible for having the wrong man bitten in the dark—
particularly a senator or congressman! i # * * *
1 ^ COINS IN A D. C. FOUNTAIN—There’s something about a fountain that attracts coin-throwers. That one in Rome that peems to have stimulated the whole idea is doing well, even t though it didn’t get a cent from the makers of the hit movie i built around the theme that if you throw a coin in and make a
: wish to return, you’ll,get your wish.
Dulles International Airport, serving Washington, D. C., is a long way out in the country from the national capital. Why anyone should wish to return there is a tough question to answer Nevertheless, Dulles has a fountain, and the foun-
tain has been attracting coins like mad. So far, nearly $4,000 has been scooped out of
the fountain, and, inasmuch as it is federal government property, what to do with the money
has been quite a problem.
We’re happy to report that after much thought a solution has been reached. The money wall he donated to a worthy charity In keeping with the kind of people who have thrown all that money away in the first place. It will be turned over to the noa- ■ profit organization that aids needy travelers 1

Sen. Keating, long a proponent of the rose, said in a statement to the subcommittee, “Now is the time in our history w-hen all men and women should put down the arms of floral battle, unite behind the obvious winner, reconcile petty differences and bestow upon the
rose its rightful honor.”
The rally for the rose in Washington was topped off with a presentation at the Capitol to Senators and Congressman who favor the rose for the national flower. Showing that the United States is a land of roses — and that support crosses party lines — [ Senators Maurine Neuberger (D-Ore.) and Kenneth Keating (R-N. Y.) and Rep. Lindley Beckworth (D-Tex.), received a giant map of the United States made entirely of red,
white and blue roses.

Vermouth Sold INDIANAPOLIS UPI — Eighty-eight bottles of French vermouth were auctioned off by Uncle Sam Wednesday at $1.80 for the 30-ounce size and 75 cents for the 16-ounce. It was sale day at the U.S. Bureau of Customs, where assistant collector of customs Eugene Okon got rid of a batch of confiscated and unclaimed items that had collected in the offices over a period of several
months.
The sale netted $1,200, at least 10 per cent of it from the bargain vermouth.
No wonder some people spend 50 weeks getting ready for a vacation. Since these 14 wonderful days will be spent on their own time, this period from the job must be carefully planned down to the last detail. Regardless of advance planning, however, there are always last minute preparations to make as the hour of liberation approaches. It Is a simple matter to tell the post office, the milk man and the paper boy to hold their fire until you return, but concern for the survival of your living and growing stock is an acute pre-vacation worry. A possible solution to this emergency is to make a list of 10 people who in your opinion may have enough neighborly kindness to care for your dog, cat or canary and who will see to it that neither your goldfish or potted geranium dies of thirst in your absence. Starting with a list of 10, the law of averages assures you
that at least one of these persons will be so swept off his feet by your request that he will be unable to think up a plausible excuse for not being your vacation baby sitter. With this detail out of the way, consider next the money situation. Figure the maximum amount you will need to get there and back and then add 50 per cent to cover expenses which may descend unannounced when you are hundreds of miles from home. Just before you force the lid ; shut on your suitcase, hustle down to Central Nationl Bank and exchange your folding j money for Travelers Checks. This safe way of toting your vacation dollars wall do much to insure you of a worry-free trip and will reduce the risk of your being stranded in the middle of ' nowhere destitute of funds.

For an unusual, and unusually good, dessert, with taste and eva appeal, serve Queen’s Chipped Cheese Watermelon, developed in the test kitchens of the Wise Potato Chip Company by Ann Williams-Heller, director of Consumer Services, in honor of Carolyn King, national 'watermelon queen, shown above at Cypress Gardens just prior to starting on a National Tour. Here’s the recipe: Cut off a thin piece from the bottom of a small (10 to 15-pound) watermelon so it won’t roll. Now, cut a somewhat more generous piece off the top, lengthwise. De-seed and retain this top piece. With a large spoon, scoop out enough of the top layer of watermelon meat to make a shallow depression. In large bowl, blend one eight-ounce package softened cream cheese with contents of one six-ounce bag of potato chips, finely crusheu, and one-half cup sour cream blended with 14 teaspoon sweet (Hungarian) paprika or white pepper. Place mixture into watermelon; replace cut-off piece. Chill before serving. Slice and serve with chip-cheese mixture. Serves lour to six. (WGDA).
