"As a result the troops are performing better in field. And certainly, the government here in Saigon is bringing that stability we've been seeking for so Showing No Weakness Taylor said he did not think the Communist regime in North Viet Nam had shown any sign or willingness to end its aggression against South Viet Nam as a result of the bombing of Communist territory north of the 17th parallel.

Note their flower-bedecked Tutti-poles. By JOSEPH Central Press LONDON -England has many the strangest is the festival of the revelers demand money from men The morning of Hocktide in the crier sounds the horn from the the bellman goes through town the court house to answer to their The chief revelers, two Tutti-men, their Tutti-poles from the constable's staves topped by a bouquet and "Each of us carries an orange," titled to visit the houses of commoners and demand a coin from men and a kiss from women. "If the kiss is given, an orange is surrendered and is replaced from the sack of the 'Orange who wears cocks' feathers in his hat.

The rest of the oranges we distribute to the children who follow us around." This amusing festival has political roots. During the morning the "Court Leet" elects a new constable and other civic officers. "THE COURT was originally convened to settle disputes between the people and the Duke of Lancaster," the Tutti-man said. "In 1611 we bought all rights and set up a local government- with an elected constable, portreeve and bailiff. It hasn't changed.

of Gaunt (Duke of Lancaster, 1340-1399) gave us a horn which, formerly used in the Hocktide ceremonies, is still preserved but has been replaced by one given in 1633. That's the horn you heard at the opening of the ceremony this morning." A special punch is drunk at the civic lunch. Then visitors and new commoners must undergo the ritual of "shoeing the WHITT Correspondent strange festivals, but among Hocktide Tutti-men-when the and kisses from women. town of Hungerford, the town 1 balcony of the town hall.

Two men pretend to drive nails into the feet of strangers, until the "colt" has had enough and seeures immunity by crying "A punch!" The nail is then presented to the in return for a fee which helps pay for the bowl of punch. "WHY the money and the kisses?" the Tutti-man repeated question.

"In olden days the money collected was a headpenny for every male over the age of 12 in a commoner's house. This money was used by the court. "The demanding of kisses probably originated from the fact that was always held at Hocktide, an old feast at which oil Monday the women' held the men to ransom and on Tuesday the roles were, reversed.

And, don't forget to suspend newspaper and magazine deliveries. A half dozen rolled-up newspapers scattered on the front porch is an open invitation to the burglar. The same goes for mail. Have it held at the post office or delivered to a neighbor. Then there are more elaborate but relatively inexpensive precautions.

Windows should have an out-of-reach safety lock. A simple latch is no deterrent to thief who merely punches a hole in the glass and releases the latch. A table lamp in the living room or possibly just the porch light should be hooked to a device that will turn it on at dusk and off at down. Such devices are inexpensive and install. Arrangements also should made to keep the grass trimmed by a caretaker whose name is supplied to police.

It's not uncommon for a pair of thieves to team up, one pretending to mow the lawn while acting as a lookout for his colleague inside. And, don't make it easier for the seco man by leaving a ladder on the back porch. Police said that in any case, homeowners should have a record of the description and serial number of all appliances, plus any photographs of valuable jewelry. This information comes in handy in the event stolen property is recovered and must be identified. Burglars Go to Work While Many Vacation By CARLO J.

SALZANO United Press International WASHINGION (UPI) The story documented in bulging police files across the country is usually the same. Careless vacationers do everything but send invitations to burglars to ransack their homes while on their holiday. Sample: Mom and Pop make all kinds of plans, pack their bags and kids.in the car, check the stove burners, lock the front door, and take off. When they return suntanned, happy, and tired, the first thing they notice is that back door is wide open or the basement light is on. Nothing quite right.

Inspection reveals the obvious. The house had been broken into. Several thousand dollars worth of clothing and other valuables are gone: But the vacation doesn't have to end that way. There is no doubt that if a burglar. wants to get into a house he can find ways to do it.

But police say that steps can be taken to discourage him and improve the chances of a happy ending to that family junket. All vacation plans should include arrangements to protect your home and its contents. One of the first steps is to notify the police captain in charge of your precinct that you'll be gone at and such a time, and for how long. Also give a house key to a trusted neighbor and his name to the police. Some police departments maintain a list of homes that get regular attention.

Still others have cruisers that do nothing but check houses of vacationing occupants. Jewelry, documents and other left behind should be President (Continued from Page 1) er to full employment by removing an unnecessary drag on consumer and business purchasing power.
