Washington, D. C. — A rewarding place to visit

By BERNIECE H. DWYER Visiting the nation’s capital is always a good experience but particularly so during the Holiday Season. Fewer people and the festive adornments are added attractions. Although all of the Smithsonian buildings are decorated for the season, the Museum of History and Technology was the site for its official celebration of Christmas. Events were scheduled to include every member of the family: Renaissance music, handbell ringing, puppets, story-telling, carol and gospel singing were offered throughout the museum from noon until 4 p.m. daily. All events were free and one could go and come as he chose. Twelve trees, each trimmed in a specific nation’s custom, was a feast for the eyes. The Archives, whose outdoor labelling reads, “The Written Word Endures” never fails to draw many people. In its Exhibition Hall are displayed the Constitution, the Declaration of Independence, and the Bill of Rights as well as other milestone documents of American history. I listened as a mother with a foreign accent was reading the Declaration of Independence aloud to her two children. The younger one kept inquiring “Are you going to read all of this?” as she continued. An acquistion which I had not seen on any prior visit was President Nixon’s letter of resignation of August 9, 1974. Written on 4 x 6 inch White House stationery and addressed to the Honorable Henry A. Kissinger, then Secretary of State, it consisted of one sentence, “I hereby resign the Office of Presidency of the United States.” Its receipt was acknowledged with Mr. Kissinger’s initials at 11:35 a.m. on August 9, 1974. The printed explanation beneath stated that President Nixon was the only president to resign the Presidency and that the note was written at the onset of impeachment proceedings. Saddened, I walked away. Children and adults skated on a large paid in front of the Archives. Surrounded by the spaciousness of the Mall in the

Farm Bureau has new market advisory service

Indiana farmers can help turn around low prices for their crops and livestock and take a more positive stand than striking, according to an Indiana Farm Bureau official. Will Schakel, a grain and livestock farmer of r 1 Knightstown and head of the commodity department of the state Farm Bureau, today outlined a new market advisory service for Hoosier farmers to “keep them from slamming the grain bin doors shut and waiting for higher prices.” Schakel points out that most farmers are too busy producing food for the world to really study the market and keep on top of timely marketing opportunities. Hundreds of factors today, such as Russian grain purchases, export controls, and Brazilian soybeans, complicate the farmer’s decision making. The new market service will accomplish for the farmer what he can’t or won’t do for himself Schakel says. Anjong the services are tape recordings on a toll-free WATS line: bi-weekly newsletters and three one-day

bright Washington sun, it seemed a most appropriate thing to do on the Tuesday following Christinas. The White House was tastefully decorated with greenery and hundreds of poinsetta. It was gratifying to me that a large creche was a focal pan* of interest in the East Room. The guide explained that it was a gift to the White House from the Johnsons, imported from Italy. The tree in the Green Room was hung with ornaments made by mentally retarded children. At the north end of the State Dining Room, the gingerbread house with Amy’s name on the mailbox was a special attraction. On the particular day that I had planned to go up in the Washington Monument, the National Park Service attendant informed me that the elevator was stuck at the top of the 500foot obelisk and tours for the rest of the day were cancelled. On a following day, I noticed a line of people surrounding the base waiting to go up. Because of the danger of coronary attacks, the stairs may no longer be used for ascent but are permitted for descent The Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts was featuring the Nutcracker in the Opera House, the New York String Orchestra in the Concert Hall, and a new play about the Supreme Court in the Eisenhower Theater. A noontime children’s production was drawing lines of parents and children. The 630-foot long redcarpeted Grand Foyer, one of the world’s larger rooms, was filled with scaffording and roped-off areas. Storm damage to the flat roof has resulted in serious leakage and current estimates are that repairs to the eight-year old structure will total $5,500,000. The 40-minute tour of the Center takes the visitor into the Concert Hall and Opera House and into lounges which are used fa* private functions. One has an unusual Waterford Crystal chancelier of 4,000 pendants. The Roof Terrace provides an outdoor walkway from which one may view the city and its major monuments and memorials.

seminars held each year. The tape recordings will provide up-to-date market reports, analyze the market and give market recommendations. The newsletters and seminars will reveal long term trends, give more detailed information and instruct how to utilize the information received on the tapes. Other features of the service, according to Schakel, will be to provide timely market information, highlight happenings on the world situation that will affect the Indiana agricultural marketing, situation, analyze USDA reports and make recommendations on crop and livestock marketing plans. Additional information about the market advisory service may be obtained by contacting your County Farm Bureau office or the commodity department, 130 E. Washington, Indianapolis.

reservation, Virginia on the apposite side, and Georgetown. Also, beside the Potomac and directly to the north is the most famous apartment and office complex in the world — Watergate. Today it is internationally known as the name for a nation’s well-publicized tribulations. Built on a ten-acre site, it is a city within itself consisting of office buildings, over 700 penthouses and townhouses, a luxurious hotel, several embassies, two Olympicsized swimming pools and 30 boutiques which form an open-air mall in the summer. The buildings of curvilinear design are set amidst seven acres of trilevel park with gardens, fountains and promenades. Parking for 1,200 cars is underground as is a walkway which gives access to any part of the $100,000,000 city in adverse weather. Built in the foggy-bottom area of Washington within minutes of the White House and the Department of State, it is now considered the most exclusive residential, office, and shopping'complex in the world. The ducks had all 111 watery acres of the Tidal Basin in front of the Jefferson Memorial to themselves in Washington's 30 degree weather. And because a west wind was blowing across the Potomac, only a few people were viewing Mr. Jefferson’s tall bronze image. In Arlington National Cemetery, the eternal flame continued to burn on John F. Kennedy’s grave. Nearby at Robert F. Kennedy’s burial site, a few people were reading the excerpts from his writings carved in the marble approach. The Custis-Lee Mansion was festive with greenery and the women guides in southern-belle attire briefed us on its past. The Nation’s Capital is a good place for a family vacation. There is no charge to enter any of the government buildings or memorials. The beauty of the inside gardens and fountains of the National Gallery of Art and other Smithsonian buildings cannot be described. Each offers hours of browsing fa each member of the family, and when one becomes weary, there is always a place nearby to rest. Most buildings have cafeterias in which inexpensive and delicious food can be secured. Washington is, indeed, a beautiful and stimulating city in which to spend two a 20 days!
