Mrs. Stevens Looks Back
On Two Years in CAPITAL

cabinet officer has certainly
not been without its lighter
moments for Mrs. Stevens.
The first time she went to
the White House she was not
recognized. At least, until
finally a handsome Marine
aide asked her if she wasn't
Joan Stevens mother-but not
If she was the wife of the Sec
retary of the Army designate.
Then there was another mo-
ment that took some time be-
fore Mrs. Stevens saw the
humor in it.
1t was the first dress parade
to which she had taken her
son Tommy-then about 10
years old, as well as a young
school friend of his. The fact
that it was April didn't enter
Mrs. Stevens mind.
A couple of Army colonels
and their wives offered to take
charge of the youngsters so
that Mrs. Stevens would be
freer to view the parade.
Went Armed
Mrs. Stevens noticed the
custodians squirming but it
wasn't until later that she
discovered the boys had gone
armed with itching powder and
pepper gum-April fool!
More things that stand out
for Mrs. Stevens-the inaugu-
raj parade: attending the New
York Avenue Presbyterian
Church particularly being
privileged to sit in the Lincoln
pew at the 150th anniversary
Of the church,. and meeting
the Queen Mother of England.
The one real reason Mrs.
Stevens is glad to see this tour
of duty come to an end is that
she feels now both she and her
husband can spend more time
with their children.
From other Cabinet wives to
a taxi driver named Mr.. Pisani,
the departure of this gracious
lady is a sad event. They, like
all Washingtonians who have
met her. can only hope it is
official" and not final.

By DAISY CLELAND

Mrs. Robert Stevens, wife Of
the retiring Secretary of the
Army leaves the ofiicial scene
Of Washington tomorrow with
mixed emotions.
'I do not like to leave
wherever I am" says Mrs.
Stevens.
Flying in a plane over
Washington, certain land
marks stand out and looking
back over the last two and a
half years here, I know the
important and wonderful
things will stand out clearly
and we will remember them"
she adds.
The glamour of official life
has taken. q secondary role in
Mrs. Stevens memories and
is replaced by those everyday
things enjoyed by any Wash
ingtonian.
Beautiful City
"It is impossible to live in
Washington and not have
1t become a part of you-the
beautiful trees. parks and
buildings. It's history with
the people Of the past becom-
ing more real like the people
who are here today" says Mrs.
Stevens.
That all of the days on their
tour of duty were not good
ones is admitted Immediately
by Mrs. Stevens. But she goes
on to philosophize that she
feels that they had to be-"
And out of the difficult times
for both of them there came
some touching incidents and
close friends that will always
be remembered.
The day when a member Of
the Secretary's staff called her
to tell her that the headlines
in the paper might upset her
and wanted to prepare her.
Another evening, after a
particularly unpleasant day,
the Secretary and Mrs. Stevens
were sitting on their terrace
when a knock came at the
door. A group of neighbors
had gathered flowers from
their gardens, written a note
which was signed by each Of
them and thoughtfully deliv-
cred it to the Secretary and
his wife.
Hard to Say
"It is difficult for me at the
moment to speak of our close
association with the Army and
other branches Of the armed
services and what it has meant
to me-to all of my family.
Those in my husbands Of
flee that we have seen fire.
quently and who have given
us so much help and support
now seem almost like mem
bers of our own family" adds
Mrs. Stevens.
II feel that The Star per-
formed a real service to our
country in televising the con-
gressional hearings Of a year
ago but sincerely hope that
although history does repeat
itself there will never be a like
incident again." says the Sec
retary's wife.

long, mis-spent life. These things
are beyond understanding, if any,
one really wishes to puzzle his
head off about things he can't do
anything about.
And now along this line we call
to witness what happened to Mrs.
Duvalls store at Manns Harbor
during Hurricanes Connie and
Diane. If there ever was good
soul with big heart, it is Mrs.
Duvall. She's not only worked like
fury many years to do things for
her children and grandchildren, but
she has carried many neighbors on
her books through the years,
supplying them with food and
other merchandise in good times
and bad. Many of them have fer
gotten her as prosperity touched
them later. Nobody in the village
is better loved and nobody has
done more in recent years to help
her neighbors. And in fact, she
would be lot better off financial
ly had she not been so good.
Who did the hurricane pick out,
of all people, to damage most in
Manns Harbor? Why Mrs. Duvall.
She lost part of her building and
several thousand dollars all told,
counting merchandise. The tide
came in, took away her shore

THE JUST AND THE UNJUST
1t is scripture that the rain falls
alike on the just and the unjust.
Neither are hurricane winds any
respecter of persons. We can
often look about us and witness
some old reprobate continue to
prosper through sunshine and rain.
And then we see some good soul
who has made a valiant struggle
through the years lose even that
which he has.
It's somewhat like the good old
christian character who is bedrid-
den for years and dies in agony
from an incurable disease, while
some old rounder passes out in
peace and comfort at the end of a

front, carried away part OF the
store and the merchandise stocked
therein. The disaster called for
several days of hard work to get
back in business.
We'd like to write a happy end
ing by saying that the many who
owed her for her goodness to them
in tight times, made bee line to
pay old accounts and give her
lift.
I have long been convinced that
the craze for consolidated schools
has been carried too far in North
Carolina, to the everlasting dis
advantage of several generations.
Among other evils it has brought
on, is the transporting of small
children from home many miles,
and for long hours, and of course
attendant thereto extra hardship
for parents. have also contended
that no school bus should go forth
on our highways with or without
its precious freight, unless driven
by a competent, experienced and
mature driver.
Just a few days ago, school
bus driver near Knoxville, Tenn.
allowed a train to run into his
bus and kill dozen children and
seriously injure just about all the
rest of those in the bus. Through
the years, there have been many
such cases.
The present system is a crime
against the children of this state.
If the authorities would do some
picking, it would not be so bad,
but there have been examples
when the most rattlebrained of
people have been used as bus
drivers.
It's a beautiful day, and as these
words are being written l saw a
fine couple drive by the window.
Just about every day, Mr.. and
Mrs. Sam Twiford take an after
noon ride about Roanoke Island.
This couple some months ago
celebrated their golden wedding
anniversary. They are fine people,
stick to good old customs; they are
serene and happy in a world
which disturbs so many who are
younger and haven't learned the
virtue of patience.
Something that seems rather
peculiar to me despite this and
that. Sir Harry Truman once tried
to get Gen. Eisenhower to run on
the Democratic ticket and be his
successor. The General apparently
though he couldn't make it on
Harry's lap. He took the other
boat. Now Harry says everything
Ike does is wrong. Wonder what
Harry would be saying if Ike was
in there as a Democrat? After all,
if Ike does as bad as Harry says,
what narrow escape Harry had
For if it had been the other way,
as Harry desired some three or
four years ago, Harry would now

have to blame himself for putting
Ike in office. Well, there are
patriots in all parties and one
party doesn't have all the rascals.
Rascals go where the money is,
and they hang on to anybody's
wagon that'll take 'em to it.
While our recent hurricanes
spare our people of serious prop
erty loss, they played havoc with
business, so that just about all the
Dare County Coast will wind up
in the red this season. You see
they lost the month of August
which is the busiest, biggest and
most profitable month in the year.
The hurricanes left them carrying
the costly overhead of a peak sea-
son staff and other peak expenses.
Next year, we may expect to see
more people advertised for taxes
than ever before, for our people
will have less money while taxes
will be much greater. You see the
county officials have raised taxes
higher this year than ever before
in history. And of all things that
brought it mostly about, to build
jails. We suppose jails will attract
a lot more tourists next year to
help make business better.
