Gypsies And Shetlandsky Made Merry Muscovites Mad Eddy Gilmore, for 11 years an AP correspondent in Moscow, is back on "the right side of the Iron Curtain," as he expresses it. In this story, third of a series, Gilmore gives a glimpse into Moscow life as foreigners live it. By EDDY GILMORE PARIS (AP) -- The cold war started, and a frigid wind began 4 blow from Joseph Stalin's Krem- It would be: incorrect to say that Americans in Moscow, even dur- ing the greatest moments of war- time co-operation, were ever how- lingly popular with the Commun- ist government. But compared to what happened later, we led 'a charmed life. I left an official party at 2:20 one morning, arm in arm with a man who now is a marshal in the Soviet army. With other Russians and foreigners from some of the embassies, we journeyed to my apartment. This high military man, once in- side my modest place, sat down - at the piano and played until dawn. It all seemed not very unusual then. * Another time I found myself at a big Russian dinner. More than 60 persons a tone long table. I seemed to be the only foreigner resent. "Eddy Eddyovich," said my host, "I've found something for you." He proudly whipped out a bottle of scotch. A little dark man near me, who looked like a party type, shuddered.

And there were the gypsies. The best Russian parties, I believe, must Have gypsies. Then one morning, after a very fine party, there was an incident. A junior member of the Ameri- can embassy was taking a gypsy girl home in a taxi, I believe. She reported, and in the public press, that she resented his advances. The paper blamed American boor- ishness and a lack of respect for women. The cold wind blew colder. No gypsies at parties. Very few Rus- sians at parties.

He said he and Jerry gave a party for the critics the day be- fore opening, but: '"They came and drank all our booze but didn't re- view our show. All they reviewed was how much money we made."

On Negligence - After 2 Die OTTAWA (CP) -- A cmarge of criminal negligence against the parents of two children who died in a fire June 30 were dismissed Wednesday 'by Magistrate Glenn Strike. He said there was insufficient evidence to justify so serious a charge against Jean Baptiste La- framboise, 41, anc his wife, Flor- ence. He said the parents left their children in the care of their 13- year-old daughter, Francoise, who, he said, was a capable and intelli- gent child. The girl rescued her sister, Diane, 18 months, and her brother, Marcel, 4. The two children who died in the fire were Pauline, 7, and Leo, 8. Parents Freed [Drew Would Enforce, Anti-Dumving Laws By ALAN DONNELLY Canadian Press Staff Writer SHERBROOKE, Que. (CP)--Hon. George Drew. Wednesday night promised the Progressive Conser- vative party would enforce Can- ada's anti-dumping laws to pro- tect the textile industry against "cut-throat" competition. He said if the Progressive Con- servative party was elected Aug. 10, it would enforce the laws to ensure employment to Canada's textile workers. p Mr. Drew spoke to an outdoor audience of 1.700 from a bandshell in Dufresne Park in this* eastern townships textile centre. He said United States textile companies were dumping their surplus production in Canada and that 'neither Canada nor any other country can stand cut-throat com- petition of that kind." He said there is no question of raising tariffs. It was only a ques- tion of enforcing present anti- dumping laws. Figures for the first three months of 'this year showed the amount of U.S. textiles '"'dumped" in Can- ada were increasing to '"'a point where they threaten still more the great textile industry of Canada." At Granby .earlier, Mr. Drew re- peated charges of government "waste and extravagance." Speaking in the afternoon from a hotel balcony to about 300 per- sons gathered in the street below, he referred to a news report tell- ing of conditions at the Canadian air base at Gros Tenquin, France. The report, by Ross Munro of the Southam Newspapers, told of poor condition of runways at the airfield which made it "extremely THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE, Thursday, July 28, 1008 28 difficult" for the RCAF to use the field, Mr. Drew said. This was another example of the waste and inefficiency reported last year in the Currie report on the army works services. | "That is the kind of thing that have to pay." ' The Progressive Conservative leader spoke mainly in French at Granby and four other brief stops on a motor trip from Montreal. He disagreed with the idea that voters were apathetic to the elec- tion campaign. "While they're not doing a lot of aling, they're doing a lot of think- g.'
