.Noid Aids In Working On Degree
 Mother Of Four, Manager of Farm
 To Get Diploma

Weston, Mass. June. 4-CUP)- A 36-year-old mother of four, who combined college study with the management of a 10sacre farm, will receive a magma cum laude degree from Radcliffe College tomorrow and she says she owes 1t all to her maid.
 Mrs. Livingston Hall of weston, wife of the vice dean of Harvard Law School, meant to go to col- lege back in 1881, but then she fell in love.
 aAfter marriage, Mrs. Hall had to do the usual community chores. " When war broke out, she became divisional head of the regional Off, flee of Civilian Defense in Boston but decided, after completion of that job, that she needed a better knowledge of world problems to become a more useful citizen"
 In the fall of 1922, she enrolled at Radcliffe College, arranging hel classes on a three-day week Sched- ule. At that time, her youngest child was 3 years old and the old est 10. In l94S, her husband took g special War Department post over seas.
 For the next two years, Mrs. Hal combined her studies with taking care of the children, care of thre' horses, seven cats and various dog' and chickens on their Weston farm
 Now that she's about to realiz' her ong-cherished ambition, Mrs Hall says she knows where most o the credit belongs.
 T was literally put through col ledge by Rose Connolly who work for me-" she explained. She's m! age, and for some reason, though college was good idea-evel though it made great deal mor' work for her."

WYATT GRATEFUL
TO AFL LEADERS

Asheville, N. C.-Deep appreciation
for the vigorous cooperation demon
strated by the AFL in the Veterans
Emergency Housing Program was ex-
pressed by Emergency Housing Ex-
pediter Wilson w. Wyatt in an ad-
dress before the AFL Southern Con-
ference here.
Decrying efforts in some quarters
to label the Veterans Housing Pro-
gram "some sort of nonsense cooked
up in Washington" Mr. Wyatt cited
a letter addressed to President Tru-
man by AFL President William Green
and Harry Bates, chairman of the
AFL Housing Committee, which said
in part:
"Mr. Wyatt's program requests that
we do what seems to be impossible.
The records show that we did what
seemed to be impossible when we were
fighting to win the war. Organized
labor shared unstintingly with others
in the all-out effort to reach and sur
pass what seemed to be unattainable
goals. Please be assured that we will
do what seems to be impossible again
to meet the gravest emergency of
peace"
Expressing confidence that the goal
of starting construction on 100000
houses and apartments can be begun
within the next two years with the
cooperation of the AFL, Mr.. Wyatt
told the meeting Of AFL southern
leaders:
eve are counting on business to
lick the building materials shortage,
aided by intelligent help by labor. We
are counting on you in organized labor
to see to it that enough workers are
trained or recruited and ready to build
the houses as the material becomes
available.
"There are now about CSC, 900 work
ers employed both in off-site activity
in materials production and distribu-
tion and on-site in actual construction
of homes. To meet our goal a peak
of 2,150,000 workers will have to be
on the job"

scarce materials; guarantees to man.
ufacturers of new types of housing
that, if they are unable to sell their
full output the Government will dis
