Mrs. Wade H. Atkinson of 1402
N street NV, the widow of one
OF his city's beloved physicians, is
ably carrying on, as a memorial to
him, the Atkinson Mill Farm In
Johnston County, N. Car. There
are seven large tenant holdings, and
Q grist mill over the Little River
that flows through the property.
The present ayreage was original
" a part OF much larger colonial
holdings owned by DR.. Atkinsons
fourth grandfather. DR.. Atkinson
took over the property as it now
stands from various kinsmen with
the idea that farming might be a
pleasant summer time diversion
from the demands of a large Wash
ington practice.
Subsequent to this, DR.. and Mrs.
Atkinson had spent their holidays
primarily in travel, with eight trips
70 Europe as special highlights of
their wide journeyings. She had
never even vaguely imagined herself
living on a farm, much less having
TO be responsible for one.
Twin Goals Established,
With DR.. Atkinson's background
as physician, it was natural that
his landholding interests became
diVfoed. On the one hand was his
desire ito raise the average of
health and living conditions in the
general community; on the other
to prove that the introduction of
scientific methods for producing
bigger and better crops through the
prevention of soil erosion, the fertili-
zation OF the soil and the introduc-
ton OF modern and farm machinery,
were means to this end.
Upon her husbands death nearly
f1ve years ago. his widow found her
self without practical preparation
faced with the entire responsibility
OF upholding her husbands ideals
Tor the Atkinson Mill Farm.
Right away, too, this slender,
brown-eyed, very feminine city
dweler had to make vital farming
decisions. When should the pack
barns of flue cured tobacco be emp
tied so as to bring the best market
prices? How many tons of fertilizer
should she continue to order? Should
she buy three pickup trucks, or
would two suffice? Was it better to
try to buy a new tractor and mill
machinery, or try to get along with
the old? Overnight, farm magazines
and journals and agricultural re-
ports became "the musts" of her cur
rent reading-and they still are.
Tenants Are Happy.
In momentous conference with
all Of her tenants and the miller.
she told them of her willingness ito
put back upon the farm, the ma jor
portion of what it brought in mar

penses, but she could not permit it
to be a liability which did not pay
its way"
Today, she is proud of the superb
cooperation and the achievements

RepubIicansC Confiden,
OF Kentucky Victory
On Labor Law Issue
By Gould Lincoln

Jouett Ross Todd, Republican ma
uonal committeeman for Kentucky,
predicted today that Kentucky At
torney General Eldon S. Dummit,
Republican, will be elected Governor
OF the Blue Grass State by from 80,
ooo to $4,000 on November 4 as the
Climax to a campaign in which the
Taft-Hartley Labor Act has been the
main issue.
Mr.. Dummit is supporting the law,
whicle his Democratic opponent is
Representative Clements. who voted
IN the House against the labor law
and voted to sustain the Presidents
veto.
Kentucky is the first State where
q Statewide political campaign is
squarely based on whether or not
the Taft-Hartley law is a reasonable
labor Encouragement CODE" Mr.. Todd
said.
He said Mr.. Clements had been
Endorsed by the AFL in its conven-
ton in Ashland. September 8,
solely because of his vote against
the Hartley bill The AFL in
Kentucky is now controlled by John
L. Lewis United Mine Workers,
who had one-third of the conven-
ito ndelegates. The AFL inoorse-
ment was quickly followed by CIO
Endorsement
Dummit Active in Campaign.
While Mr. Dummit has oeen
making three speeches a Cay at
tacking Mr.. Clements because of
his vote against the act, Mr.. Glenn
etns so far has ignored the issue.
Mr.. Todd said.
Up to a few weeks ago, Mr.. Todd
continued, Democratic leaders in
the State had considered the cleo
ton in the bag-but that now a
very different situation has devel-
oped
Mr.. Todd also predicted the Re-
publicans would carry Louisville by
from 5000 to 10000 votes. Although
the city has a Democratic Mayor
elected two years ago. the Mayor
won by only 221 votes, and the Re-
publicans elected the entire county
ticket and all IL aldermen of Louis
vile.
Count on Farm Support
Kentucky is rated Democratic
State, with a Democratic registra-
ton Of voters many thousands in
excess of the Republican registra-
ton. Only when, a major issue is
involved are the Republicans likely
to win there and Mr.. Todd believes
the Republicans have their issue now
in the new labor law.
The Republicans are counting on
support from the Kentucky farmers
this year. largely on the Taft-H Hart
ley labor law issue. A strike has
tied up the International Harvester
plant in Louisville for some time,
reducing production of farm ma
chinery at time when the farmers
desperately need new machinery.
The situation at the struck plant
has been further complicated by the
fact that the AFL building trades
members have crossed the CIOI
picket lines into the plant to work
on new construction.

Greek Convention Ends
With Demand for Epirus

The return of Northern Epirus to

a SLOW death at the hands of its
current rulers" was called for yester-
day by DR.. Photius Kyritsis of Wor-
chester. Mass. in a charge" to new
officers of the Papepirotic Fedora
ton.
He spoke at a board meeting that
followed the close of the federation S
fifth annual convention at the Stat
ler. Hotel.
Northern Epirus was part of
Greece until it was taken over by
Albania during World War I. The
question is now before the United
Nations.
Athanasios Kotsis of Detroit was
installed as president of the national
group Other officers inaugurated
were James Statson of Worcester,
Mass, secretary. and Christopher
Godellas of Chicago, treasurer.
Officers of the federation pointed
out that message from Greek Pre-
mier Demetrios Maximos, quoted in
Mr.. Kyritsis' annual report, did not
mention the word plebiscite, as an
earlier story indicated. It's exact
wording was:
1T is my sincere hope that the in
alienable rights of the Northern
Epirus to secure its freedom will
finally meet with general recogni-
ton and that the wishes of its pop
ulation will determine the final So
luton of the question"
