By Betty BeoIe

For the first time in the his
tory of the United States a
woman diplomat is being sent
out to a foreign country to spe-
officially deal with the women
of that country to further bet
ter diplomatic relations. Sc
lected for this milestone in FEM
mime history is Mrs. Margretta
Austin. petite-she's 5 feet Az
inches tall and wears a size IL
dress-blue-eyed, blond and
pretty.
Sworn in a couple of weeks
ago as q foreign service reserve
officer, Mrs. Austin sails Fri
day on the United States for
London. At our embassy there
she will have a diplomatic sta
tus of "attache," a functional
listing of Cultural Affairs OFF,
Ger for Women's Affairs"
Believe it or not, in this mans
world, women are now being
considered such a potent fac
tor that they will get their own
special diplomatic relations!
Certainly they are a potent fac
tor in Britain where women
have even been heads of labor
unions - that hasn't happened
here except in the Teachers
Union - and where there have
been more women in the House
of Commons that have ever
served in our Congress. Mrs.
Austin is wondering why wom-
en- have made more progress
there in some fields than they
have here. 1t may be because
of the war. she says, or per-
haps the queens of England
have had a psychological effect.
She'll find out.
In any case Margretta goes
out into the field as a wom-
ems affairs officer because the
field has asked for such. The
British women have been ask
ing for more attention and more
service, and our chiefs of mis-
sion in several countries have
been sending back reports that
the United States is not using
the potential of women enough
to further our common inter-
eSts with other countries. This
may come as a blow to
the womans-place-is-in-t the
home male element.
The chic and poised Mar
gretta, who's no blue stocking,
will make a good impression
when she talks to women in all
parts of the British Isles. She
prefers very expensive and very
smart clothes. she says with a
grin, and judging from her ap-
pearance she gets what she
likes.
She'll talk to key women and
organized women in all fields
to help work out common aims.
It takes no clairvoyant powers
to know that the chief aim is
the strengthening of the free
world against communism.
Britain needs all the bolstering
she can get, especially with to-
days problem of the anti-Am-
erican Bevanites.
The hew diplomat couldn't
have a better background for her
job. A graduate of Miss Har-
ker's School in Palo Alto, and

thus made Mac Gregor history.
It's the first time that the herid-

States and his reason is to cele-
brate the 3O0th anniversary of
the first member of his clan to
settle here. That gentleman's
name was Alexander Magruder

because the clan was outlawed

On Saturday Sir Malcolm will

The Week in Religion
By Religious News Service

/ Major Protestant and Roman
Catholic groups have moved to
center attention on problems of
rural areas and the place of
churches in these areas.
Appeals for the strengthening
o. rural communities were issued
by the National Convocation of
the Church in Town and Country
which met in Columbus, Ohio, and
the National Catholic Rural Life
Conference which convened in
Saginaw Mich.
Farm Population Drop.
The Catholic meeting expressed
lconcern over the decline in United
States farm population revealed
in the 1850 census. It warned
that if this trend continues, a
threat exists to our social struc-
ture and food supply in years
ahead
The conference, in it's official
statement, declared that "The So
cial and religious advantages of
farm and rural living need to be
stressed by educators and commu-
nifty leaders"
Growing congestion in some
larger Cities" the statement add
ed. "as well as the sense of frus-
tration and competitiveness in
them. does harm to the moral and
spiritual fiber of our country"
The Catholic leaders said it was
important that the farmer get an
attractive" return on his labor,
Icapital investment and risk. and
that promising farm youths be en-
couraged to remain in agriculture.
Agriculture Is Accused.
In a major address to the con-
ference. Bishop William T. Mulloy
of Covington, KY. accused Amer
ican agriculture of surrendering to
the industrial system and becom-
ing infected with industrialism' S
diseases and disorders"
Agriculture must return to its
own philosophy of life or it will
develop into a hideous monstrcs-
ity," Bishop Mulloy said.
Because agriculture has been
grated to the industrial system,
he said. it has lost it's own form
and shape.
LAS a result" Bishop Mulloy
said, confusion Is devouring the
farmers labor; he is being de-
prived of his unique dignity as a
laborer; agriculture itself has lost
its dignity, and rural youth is
being drawn away from the farm
and the rural community"
Church in Rural Area.
The Protestant Convocation was
concerned largely with the part
the church must play in the rural
community.
DR.. Claude j. Snyder of st.
Louis, Mo-, chairman Of the De-
partment of the Town and Coun-
try Church of the National Coun-
Gil of Churches, told the convo-
cation that rural churches must
modernize their programs.
Far too often." he said, "the
church goes on mistaken assur-
ance that the loyalty Of bygone
years will continue even though
there has been modernization of
everything else but the program
of the church."
The Convocation's Family Farm
Commission urged pastors to ad-
wise young people. help them be-
