CENTS LEFT OVER:
'Grand Tour' of Europe
Can Be Done for $1,314
By MARY RUTTER
KANSAS CITY, Mo. - (/P) -
Thinking about a trip abroad and
wondering if you can afford it?
You can do the "grand tour"
now at a cost of about $29.00 a
day if you are careful.
I HAVE just returned from a
44-day trip through England,
Scotland, France, Switzerland and
Italy. It cost me $1,314.18.
In return, I got a. swell sun-
tan, some priceless photos, a lib-
eral education and enough mem-
ories to last me well through the
rocking chair era.
I had just 29 cents in my purse
after I paid off the taxi at home.
The rest of my bank account had
been disbursed as follows:
$338.00-round trip tourist-class
rboat fare.
$703.96-Hotels, meals, trains,
sightseeing trips, entertainments.
$102.72-Tips.
$134.00-Gifts and souvenirs.
'52-20' Campaign
An open meeting to plan a cam-
paign for the extension of the
52-20 program for veterans, will
be held under.the auspices ofthe
Young Progressives at 7:30. tonight
at the League.
$17.50-Traveller's and baggage
insurance. *
I HAD A week in London, three
days in Edinburgh, nine days in
Earis, two days on the Riviera,
three days in Rome, and side trips
to such places as the French cha-
teaus of Versailles and Fontaine-
Bleu, the Trossachs of Scotland,
Shakespeare's home at Stratford-
on-Avon, and the lovely English
lake country.
Be sure to stick some choco-
late in your suitcase if you like
sweets. It is scarce in England
and expensive on the continent.
The French National tourist of-
fice's latest estimate of hotel rates
ranges from $2.00 to $10.00 for
single with bath. Mine in Paris
cost from $2.50 to $3.50. Like a
hot of tourists in France, I us-
ually found that the elusive "room
with bath" had already been tak-
en, and that my bath was "down
the hall." My hotel room in Lon-
don was $3.10 per day and it was
nice.
Entertainment costs in Europe
are a happy surprise. I saw the old
Vic repertory company, London's
finest, with Sir Laurence Olivier
and Vivian Leigh, for about $3.20
in one of the best seats in the
house.

LOS ANGELES. - OP - Serve
yourself gas stations are facing
some mighty stubborn opposition,
but their low prices are boosting
sales volume.
In just two years the stations
where youtdo all your own work
in gassing-up have mushroomed in
Southern California and extended
to a number of other states.
SINCE GEORGE R. URICH op-
ened the first "gaseteria" in East
Los Angeles, operators have fol-
lowed the lead to the extent that
southern California now has near-
ly 100 self-service stations, and
trade sources estimate there are
that many more throughout the
country.
Opposition to the cut-rate
movement comes mostly from
established filling station oper-
ators. The new-type station has

been banned or restricted in 11
states and a number of munici-
palities by law.
Directors of the American Pe-
troleum Institute, an industry or-
ganization, several months ago
adopted a resolution disapproving
of the new stations "as a menace
to the petroleum industry's proud
safety record."
* * *
SPOKESMEN for some of the
major petroleum companies say
they have taken no stand in the
matter themselves on a national
basis. They prefer to wait and see
the trend more clearly before com-
ing out with a public position
either for or against.
Los Angeles itself and nine
other California cities have out-
lawed the new look in gas and

oil marketing; but in Los An-
geles County the movement is
thriving and doing great busi-
ness.
"I'd never go back to the old
way of operating," says Urich,
who now has eight stations and
plans 10. "Last month my serve-
urself stations pumped 1,500,000
gallons.
