Much Traveled Writer
Now Living In Capitol
By JANE EADS
WASHINGTON (API ? The un
predictable Caresse Crosby, who
has polished off the memoirs of her
exciting and unorthodox existence
here and abroad, came back to!
Washington for an "autograph.
party" and to announce her next
bid for the headlines.
In her book, "The Passionate
Years," the chic, shapely and soci- j
ally prominent New York-born
Caresse describes herself as one
"who always said yes to anything
that would bring joy and excite
ment." This pleasant acquiesence
led her through a kaleidoscopic
journey during the hectic '20s and
'30s. Most of that time she lived
among the literati and the news
makers on the continent.
In the past few years Mrs. Cros
by has turned to more sober pur
suits. In 1950 she returned from a
sojourn abroad to register as a lob
byist on Capitol Hill, seeking co
operation from Congress and the
"women of America" to do some
thing "realistic about peace and!
progress in 1950." This project |
didn't get very far. Then Caresse
said yes to another idea.
She went back to Europe, where
she became a founder of the Wo
men's World Center of Non-Gov
ernmental Organizations. Current
ly the Center is proposing a world
exchange of women's home handi
craft objects.
Out of the Women's organization
has grown a plan for "world citi
zens'* to meet this May on the
slopes of Mount Parnasus at Del
phi, Greece, where Mrs. Crosby
finished her book and suggests that
the cornerstone of a free world
order be laid and a "Common
wealth of World Citizens" be built.
Mrs. Crosby was first married to
'Richard Rogers Peabody of Boston
and Peabody. Mass. They had two
children. Mrs. Crosby was divorced
in 1922 and in Paris married Harry
Crosby, a poet and a Bohemian "in
the best sense of the word," she
says?and together they "roamed
the continent and Africa in search
of all things elusive," They set up
the Black Sun Press in Paris and
brought out first editions of the
works of James Joyce, Marcel
Proust, D. H. Lawrence, Kay Boyle,
Hart Crane and their own poetry.
Crosby died in 1930. but Caresse
remained abroad until 1937. when
she came back to "settle" briefly
on a plantation near Bowling
Green. Va.. where she entertained
such notables as Salvador Dali, the
painter, and Henry Miller, the writ
er. In 1941, "as a war effort," she
opened the Crosby Gallery of Mod
ern Art here for new young and
stranded artists she had known in
Europe.
The belief is common that it is
possible to make an image of a
person and by destroying the im
age, to destroy the person.

One Of Those Guys
PITTSBURGH (APi?The wife of
an attorney tells how she escaped
receiving a traffic ticket by telling
the truth about her husband.
"If 1 know these attorneys, he'll
have this fixed up. so don't worry
about it," said the policeman who
stopped her speeding car.
"That's where you're wrong." she
said. "If I get a ticket, he won't
try to fix it. I'll have to pay it out
of my own money."
The woman said the cop stopped
writing and declared:
"Oh, he's one of those guys, eh.'
Well, if he won't take care of it,
I will," and he tore up the ticket.
