THE SUNDA BTAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, JANUARY 25, 1942. About Well-Known Folk In Books, Art, Politics Mrs. Lionel Atwill Helps Defense Corps; Women in House Back Mrs. Rogers In Plea for War Organization By ROBERT CRAWFORD. Mrs. Lionel Atwill, for the time being, has given up her hobby of making over old Georgetown houses and is one of the newest recruits in the women's auxiliary police corps. She has entered into the work with all the enthusiasm and energy for which she is noted. ‘To old Washington society Mrs. Cromwell, and is remembered as one Atwill is still referred to as Louise of the Capital’s most popular belles. Just now the thing she is most interested in is canteen service for soldiers, policemen and volunteer guards who are on 24-hour service on bridges and highways entering the city. Mrs. such service cannot be organized颗 until it is made clear that volunteer canteen work will not conflict with the Red Cross or with the function of paid workers who have been serv- ing Government employes on night duty. Being possessed of a good business sense, as well as plenty of executive ability, she believes the greatest care should be used to avold the overlapping of work. To her there is nothing glamourous about the tasks the women of Amer- ica will be called on to do in this war. That sextet of handsome widows Atwill, explained, however, that any in the House is rallying around Representative Rogers’ bill propos- ing organization of a woman’s army auxiliary corps. When Mrs. Bol- ton, a Representative from Ohio, ap- peared before the committee to plead for the bill she grew posi- tively eloquent in pointing out the necessity for its immediate passage. Joseph Davies’ Book Is Being Widely Read. There was no wartime note in the gorgeous reception given last week by Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Ed- ward Davies in honor of the Soviet Ambassador and Mme, Litvinoff. The menu out-Russianed the Rus- sians at their own entertainments given at the Embassy on Sixteenth streete Mr. Davies, distinguished lawyer and an astute man of affairs who announces on all occasions that he is a capitalist and believes in the capitalistic system—and told Mr. Stalin so—recently brought out “Mission to Moscow,” based on his diary, which is being widely read. “Mission to Moscow” is rich in historical detall, giving a compre- hensive picture of the attitude of the Soviet government to which he was United States Ambassador from 1938 to 1938. Mr. Davies, who is \’L ‘Il dance di- inely in this grey “Yhiffon gown, ac- ed with two J S N . | of Welsh blood, must have inherited :|from his Welsh mother, : | Paynter Davies, some of the tart Rahel humor so characteristic of the peo- ple of Wales. Have you any original Stafford- shire pottery? If so, cherish it, for it is becoming scarcer every day. In the collection of china down- stairs in the White House there are several pieces, but it is not known whether or not they are originals. ‘There is a dark blue platter with the old Cantonese willow border that has been said to be an orig- inal Staffordshire; also a fruit dish used in the time of President Fill- more. It seems that Staffordshire pottery was not known in this country until 1836. Up to that time much of the pottery imported here was from Enoch Wood of Liverpool and the two potteries sometimes are confused.
