Mrs. Elisabeth Maytag Revyuk. of Maryland, charged that Dr. Flanders Dunbar, the noted psychiatrist and author, of 1 E. Wth 9t., made the “malic ious. false and untrue” remarks to the patient’s brother, Frederick L. Maytag, head of the washing ma chine company. As a result, she asserted, she was deprived of most of her $1, 350.000 share in her father’s estate for five years, had to spend more than >100,000 "to secure my right ful inheritance" and still hasn't got many thousands of dollar* I rightfully mine.” I "SLEEPING COMPANION’’ This state of affairs came about she charged, because Dr. Dunbai told her brother, Fred, a trustee of their father’s estate, that Mm Revyuk, among other things, had chosen “a sleeping companion ir place of continued psychiatric treatment On June 18, 1980, according t< ' her complaint, the psychiatrist gam the following unflattering rundown to Maytag: “That I bad rated eery low or (Cmtinted Oa rage Ms) Rita Gam Weds; Grace Kelly There NEW YORK (W — Actress Rita Gam, who will be one of Grace Kelly’s bridesmaids, was married today to wealthy publishing executive Thomas H.

The resulting clamp on cotton production would adversely affect many businesses in Dunn and throughout the South, TUghman said. “Look at the cotton-picking money that would be eliminated," Tilghman said. “And the ginners’ business, warehouse and farm machinery trade.” PAT FOR IDLENESS “My biggest objection,” he added, "is that I don’t believe in paying somebody to do nothing. I think most farmers would rather get something for what they’ve pro duced than get paid for not doing anything.” "Our acreage is so small already through this part of the country," said TUghman, “that eighty per cent of cotton land could become part of this soil bank. Any appar ent economic advantages would be offset by the difficulties it raises on several fronts." . The perfect solution to the cot ton situation probably has not tinn ed up yet, the prominent ginnin stated, but the soil bank plan In the farm bill passed by the Sen ate would not be an improvement. “It means," said TUghman, “that if a man put his allotted crops in the soil bank, the government would pay him about as mdch as If he went out and grew the crops.
