In a print of a Civil War
camp in Washington in 1861,
there is a house in the back
ground that today is one of
the most attractive houses in
Georgetown. owned by Mrs.
Marion Oates Letter. The
house is on the corner Of
Wisconsin avenue and R
street elegantly atop its
own little hill, Victorian to
its gingerbread teeth, and en-
tirely delightful.
Also delightful is Oatsie
Letter, who created the pres
ent house and gardens out
of a chaos produced by years
Of neglect.
The work on the grounds
was the most challenging
and fun for her. Her hob
bies are-in this order
gardening, houses and poll
tics. OF the second, she says
she will treSpass anywhere to
see a house with charm, and
she can't bear houses that
announce an income bracket.
THE HOUSE ON r
STREET has been here for
two years. According to the
original papers, it was built
in 1854 at a cost of $4,000.
The contractor agreed to
complete it between April
and November, and faced a
fine for each day he worked
beyond the completion date.
There is a 10th century
painting in the library that
was done from the back
porch of the house, looking
toward Mount st. Alban,
which shows one small house
and a COW path through the
fields a COW path now
called Wisconsin avenue.
The New York 7th Regi-
ment was quaratered in the
fields surrounding the house
during the Civil War. 1t is
ironic to note that it is
now occupied by the grand
daughter of Colonel William
C. Oates, who commanded
the 18th Alabama. He
was a Congressman for 18
years and then Governor
of Alabama. Mrs. Letters
great great grandfather
came out from the State Of
Virginia to draw up the
Constitution of the State OF
Alabama. Her interest in
politics evolves from the
strong strain of it in her
family background.
MRS. LETTER spends her
summers in her house in
Newport, and her winters in
Washington. In the spring
and fall she is at "Belvoir,"
her house in Montgomery,
Alabama. where she was
born. Such is the general
plan, but it adjusts fire.
quently to her passion for
travel. "JuSt ask me and I'll
CO." she says. She has al
ways adored it despite the
fact that she suffers badly
from motion sickness. No
amount of hardship or lux
ury makes any difference,
she claims, and she is per-
fectly prepared to endure
both.
FROM HER TRAVELS in
the past 20 years she has
amassed a unique collection
of anti-Slavery pottery and
art. The original designs
were drawn UP by the
Adams brothers and were
made into plaques by Wedge
wood. These designs were
translated into china, crystal
bottles, tea caddies. lustre
cups. statues and almost
anything that could be deco
rated. The first Of these
treasures was found in ia
maica, the second in New
Orleans and the third in
Paris. Since then she has
found them "all over the
place" 1t is a fascinating
collection to see in the house
that sat in the center Of a
Civil War camp.

created one of our most serious do
nestle problems. Overproduction of
food has caused a lowering of farm
income over the years; it has in
creased taxes, and on most commo-
ditieS it has not reduced the cost
to the consumer. This year, Con-
gress again faces the monumental
task of reversing these trends and
at the same time maintaining a
strong farm community which is
prepared to meet any emergency
Last week the Congress received
the Presidents request for legisla-
ton to establish new farm policies
for the country. AS you know,
have been critical of the failures of
the agriculture program approved
by Congress last year. The 1861
emergency" legislation resulted in
very small reduction in the sur
plus of feed grains and cost the tax
payers Sill billion. The new pro-
gram is designed to correct the err
rors of last year
This years request calls for more
restrictions on the production of
corn, oats and barley Producers of
dairy products would be brought
under tight production controls in
order to reduce a growing surplus
of dairy products. Restrictions on
the planting of cotton would be
changed to allow larger producers
to receive larger share of the
national quota.
The President also asked that
farm land not needed for crops be
put to use for other purposes. After
comprehensive survey of land
uses, surplus farm land could be
used for recreational, esthetic and
economic purposes. Finally, the
program includes providing mil
lions OF dollars Tor the development
of recreation and conservation
areas.
The proposals for reducing the
production of milk and dairy prod
ucts is of particular Importance
to the Sixth District of Maryland
Last year, in accordance with the
Presidents recommendations, Con-
grcss raised the support price for
milk in order to stimulate produc-
ton. In reliance on this new policy
last year, farmers sought to in
crease th"ir production by charging
their herds and expanding their ia
cilitics. Now, less than one year
