Then, suddenly, unforeseen circum-
stances caused her to change from
specialization in music, to art and
design. and after graduating from
the Cincinnati Art Academy, she
taught those subjects for a period
Of years.
Isadora Duncan's Brother
Taught Her to Weave.
Throughout an active career as
teacher and supervisor of art in
several States, Mrs. Swiggett con-
tinued to attend schools and uni
versities She studied jewelry and
pottery making at Columbia Uni
verSity and later, crossing the con-
tinent, learned weaving from Ray
mond Duncan. brother of Isadora
Duncan, the dancer. who was in
structor in handicrafts in the schools
of Seattle, Wash.
"He was an extremely interesting
man." said Mrs Swiggett, land
understood the old art of weaving
as practiced in many of the Eu-
ropean countries" He was par
ticularly proud Of his knowledge of
Viking weaving, Mrs. Swiggett
added, explaining that the ancient
Norwegian pattern carried out the
same design on both sides of the
material
Mrs. Swiggett treasures an old
chest, family heirloom, in which
she keeps many fine examples of
her handwork, including woven gar
ments and yard goods, colorful batik
scarves, and skillfully hammered
silver chains, bracelets and jeweled
rings.
Established Pottery Studio
While in Minneapolis.
She has always believed strongly
in encouraging the development of
handcrafts and few years ago,
while teaching in Minneapolis, Mimi,
established pottery studio to
which artists brought their work for
exhibit and sale.
"At one time, we had over 500
pieces of pottery made by local
artists" she said. She added her
belief that such studios could be
successfully established in other
places.
A few years ago Mrs. Swiggett
married and came to Washington
where she has made her home at
701 Nicholson avenue NV. 1t was
then she turned to writing as recrea-
ton, for not only was she lonely as
a stranger in new community, but
she also had the care of an invalid

Enjoys Lecturing on Art
Before Women's Groups.

Although she does little painting
these days. Mrs. Swiggett enjoys
talking about art and design before
women's clubs. She has arranged
an interesting lecture on design,
illustrated with original charts. Both
her art talks and recitation of her
poems have been in popular demand
by local women's groups.
In addition to her connection with
the District federation, she is
member of Chapter B. P E. o.
Sisterhood. and of the Columbia

relative. Her many poems are the
result Of her recourse to the muse
for occupation and entertainment.
There is nothing like writing to
keep the mind busy she said. Il
prefer writing sonnets and essays to
long poems When do I write?
Whenever the thought comes to me,
sometimes in the middle of the
night. I jot it down Immediately,
as I always keep notebook near
for that purpose 1t is always best
to write down ideas as they come

FILA DOWN-PAYMENT
NOW FIVE PERCENT

Greensboro. Dec. 2.-lndustrlal
expansion in North Carolina during
the last few months and that PLAN
ned for the immediate future has in
creased the market for new homes III
the state to greater than eveT pro-
portions according to Aubrey G. Nc
Cabe, State director for the Federal
Housing Administration. Increased
employment and the resulting larger
payrolls have made hundreds Of ad-
ditional North Carolina families
home conscious. Families who never
before could do more than dream
of acquiring their own home, he
asserted.
Until recently, the minimum
down payment under the FILA Bet
ter. Housing Program was III per-
cent OF the total appraised value OF
house and lot. Under the FILA low
cost home program. however. the
down payment in some instances may
be as little as five percent where the
FILA insured mortgage does not eN-
coed S25000."

Defense Program, Credited
With Improving Business

College Station, Raleigh, Dec. q
The national defense program which
has set the wheels Of industry turn
ing at a rapidly accelerated rate is
responsible in the main for better
business and demand conditions IN
this country. Julian Mann, econom-
ist in extension studies at n. {. State
College. said today.
Quoting late reports from the y.
S. Bureau of Agricultural Economics,
Mann said that while demand con-
ditions have improved here IN the
United States, exports have shown
further declines as the European war
RACES on.
Economists expect the general up
ward trend in prices for farm stulis
to keep up, but they do not see any
signs of marked rise in the price OF
farm products such as was expert
enced in the first World War.
During November, Mann contmu-

from the effects of defense spending.
Manufacturers have about settled
on their budgets for the coming
twelve months. One publication has

advertising which is 4 fairly good
Barometer a. to intentions. It finds
that titty-SiX percent Of those con-

Advertisers plan to increase their

Sales budgets. it is found. will also
be Up in 1871. Only four percent will
cut budgets, while thirty-three per-

ed. farmers received about the same
prices they did in October. such as
higher prices for butter and eggs ard
lower prices for corn and hogs.
However. the demand for farm
products in this country is better as
business picks up and workers have
more money 10 spend for food and
ether farm products.
Present conditions would indicate
that further improvement for several
months after the first OF January is
much les likely. The economists eX-
plain this by pointing out that the
output in some important industries
Is now to oc!ose TO capacity to allow
for the full seasonal gains usual in
these months.
Generally speaking, experts be-
lieve that exports will show further
declines because Of the dWindling

tries ana the tightening blockade
