she and Adlai had been married
five years.
Married in Chicago.
She and the Governor had been
married on December l, 1928, at
the Fourth Presbyterian Church
in Chicago.
Although newspaper stories de-
scribe the affair as "a social
event." she said the wedding really
was very small"
It was with her approval that
Adlai accepted a job as special
counsel with the Agricultural Ad-
justment Administration in Wash
ington.
She emphasized that this was
not her first exposure to politics,
although it was her initial expert
ence in government.
Politics is in everything" she
says.
BY 1888. the Stevensons had two
children-Adlai III and Borden
SO they chose to live in an old
house in the Georgetown section
of Washington.
Begin to Question.
"The life was very pleasant.
she recalls. "And it was interest
ing. I met all the people in the
AAA. and also Henry Wallace,
then Secretary of Agriculture.
II began to question their ideas"
Life was informal in George
town." Mrs. Stevenson continued.
I liked it because it was a simple
life. I've never had any DISLIKE
for Washington"
"The children were very young.
We had little garden and lived
informally"
During her first stay in WASH
ington, she wrote several articles
on life in the Capital, including
one on Sunday in Georgetown. {"
1t was published in a newspaper.
Although she was unimpressed
by the social life in the Capital.

she took a lively interest in poll
tics. which always had part ir
conversation at the Stevenson
home.
Return to Chicago.
Their stay in Washington was
relatively brief. They returned to
Chicago late in 1884 and began
looking for a place in the country
where the children could have
more freedom.
They chose a 70-acre site west
of fashionable Lake Forest. near
Libertyville. to build a home.
I'VE started going out there
on week ends and liked it so well
we decided to live there" she
explained.
They invested $4,000 in a small

When her husband returned to
Washington in 1941. Mrs. Steven

She also had urged him to make
this move-so he became special

Navy.

By Joy McMuIIen

CHICAGO. Aug. 20 (CDN -
Adlai Stevenson's former wife has
been pictured by people who don't
know her as wealthy. spoiled-and
bored.
It isn't true, but judge for your
self.
1--WE had a good time in every
place I lived" She says.
I'm happy if it's just a nice

This applied to her life on their
70-acre farm near Libertyville as

Springfield.
Mrs. Stevenson "shot the works

Guided From the Top.
The Communist Party has full
and unquestioned control over the
Forthcoming congress, whose dele
gates were named in regional
party congresses of the country's
16 consecutive republics. For sew
eral years there have been local,
regional and state Communist
Party conferences. all leading up
to todays event.
The congress. guided from the
top. elects the Central Committee,
which at present is supposed to
have 10 members. It is also sup
posed to meet several times a year,
but it doesn't.
In theory, the Central Com
'mittee is supposed to be the top
authority in the party, and thus
the government. It has taken its
directives from the Politburo. Now
lit will take them from the new
Presidium, and there will be no
Organizations Bureau. The party
secretariat also is appointed by
the Central Committee. along with
editors of chief party newspapers
and various department heads
having to do with planning
propaganda and the like.
Bureau Controls Government.
The Politburo is now headed by
Stain, who is also chairman of
the Council of Ministers. Mem
bers of the Politburu are ieuuty
prime ministers. and thus the bu-
reau has kept close control of all
the government.
Other members of the present
Politburo. besides Stain, are Mol
Iotov, Malenkov, Beria, L. M.
Kaganovich. K. E. Voroshilov, A.
I. Mikoyan, A. A. Andreyev, N. A.
Bulganin, A. N. Kosygin and N. M.
.Shvernik.
The Communist Party has be-
tween six and seven million men,
bers. according to the latest fig
ures. A candidate for party men,
bership is thoroughly screened be-
fore being accepted.
Malenkov has headed the Or
ganizations Bureau. He also has
headed the party inspectorate,
just as Stain did before him.
Once again he is to give the prin-
cipal speech at the congress, prob
ably once again laying down the
law with the voice of highest au-
thority.

"the group believes it has found
the old stOckade line, but can't be
too sure as yet" The work at pres
ent is around several post molds
that they hopefully believe may
lead to determining the outline and
size of the stockade, erected by the
small group of original settlers.
All diggers were asked by DR..
Bonnie to assist with working the
post molds, adding that they
should do so under careful super
vision so that no evidence is de-
stroyed. Orville H. Peets, artist of
Indian River Hundred, submitted
several sketches he had made of
the size and depth of such mOlds
