Drop in Trading
Exports to Romania dropped
considerably last year—from $15,-
000,000 in 1969 to $11,000,000 in
1970. This drop is accounted for
mainly by reduced consignments
of phosphates and linseed cake and
the complete stoppage of bus and
truck exports.

The National Achievement Award, one of America's highest
honors, was presented in 1948 to Stella, Dowager Marchioness of
Reading, during ceremonies in New York, at which her friend, Mrs.
Eleanor Roosevelt made the presentation. Lady Reading was honored
for "distinguished services which have been an inspiration to other
women."
LONDON—Stella, Dowager Mar-
chioness of Reading, who was ac-
tive in the London branch of the
World Jewish Congress, died Sun-
day at age 77.
Lady Reading, long a leader in
social reform and British public
life, was the first woman to take
a seat in the House of Lords, in
1958. Although she was given her
own title, she preferred to be
known by her husband's name. She
was the widow of the first Mar-
quess of Reading, viceroy of India
and foreign secretary.
She was founder and inspira-
tion of Britain's Women's Volun-
tary Service for Civil Defense
and for years a close friend of
Mrs. Eleanor- Roosevelt.
After her husband's death in
1935, Lady Reading traveled incog-
nito through the U. S. She worked
as a dishwasher, getting to know
the American people. Her trip
finally was interrupted by a state
trooper who said, "The President
wants you to call him." That was
the beginning of the deep friend-
ship between Lady Reading and
Mrs. Roosevelt.
She was the first non-American
to be awarded the National
Achievement Award for Women,
in 1948.
