As no ambulance was available, he accepted the offer of an undertaker friend to drive him to the hospital in a hearse. The hearse stopped for a traffic light, alongside a roadster occupied by two ladies. Their curiosity aroused, the ladies peeked through the side window of the hearse. Marquis, motionless on a stretcher, closed one eye in a broad wink. Hysterical, the ladies aped off, without waiting for the light to change.

Are the people still impatient of foreign aid, despite the fact that Mr. Eisenhower considers it essential, has requested $3.9 billion, and may seek more, as a survey committee has recommended? Is the Kennedy bill for the regulation of labor and management considered strong enough? What new civil rights laws are needed, if any? Democrats, especially, have been doing much soul searching on civil rights, for that issue threatens to divide the party.

They are also conscious of the fact that their victory at the polls last Fall stemmed from a protest against conditions, and gave them no guarantee of winning the White House next year. Among Northern members of the party there is growing restive-ness at the conservative leadership of Sen. Lyndon Johnson.

The Soviet Union has lived for years with these things, and the Soviet Union could go on living with them.

East Berlin is primarily a working class district and the standard of life has always been notably more drab than in West Berlin, which has always had a large middle class crisis centers upon the fact that the reunification of the two Germany's is now recognized as impossible within the foreseeable future. This is the hub from which, like the spokes on a wheel, radiate all the current German problems, including the future of Berlin. An understanding of this momentous historical fact is essential to the formation of a workable The 86th Congress reconvenes today efter the Easter recess with its main tasks ahead. The lawmakers already have taken certain significant action: they have admitted Hawaii to the Union, made filibusters a little easier to stop, and extended the draft for four years and the Emergency Unemployment Insurance program by three months. But the major issues of the session remain to be decided.

On how they are determined will depend much of this Congress' record, for little is likely to be initiated in 1960, a presidential year. That record may well exert a great influence 19 months from now when the voters will consider the accomplishments of a Democratic Congress and a Republican administration in the White House. Mr. Eisenhower already has presented an issue. He is determined to hold the line for his $77 billion budget (whose balance is already questioned) against "wildcat spenders," and thus resist inflation and higher taxes.

Several Democrats have charged that the President seeks economy at the expense of needed defense appropriations, the expansion of the national economy, and relief of unemployment, which persists despite business recovery. The decisions Congress will make will be determined largely by what members found at home in the 11-day Easter recess. For they used the time not merely to tighten up their political organizations by filling gaps; they also listened to what old hands had to say about what the people are thinking. Here are some of the questions to which the lawmakers have sought answers: How favorably has the public been Impressed by the President's economy Allied policy. as skillful in maintaining party unity, No More Long, Drawn-Out Duels Until last November, when and many rich people.
