Convenient terms up to 9 month to pag Ity MAKY BROWN After struggling with an overseas telephone system for almost a year one Minneapolis girl is back as an eager champion of the Stateside instruments.

She is Louise Hall, 1211 Sixth street daughter of Robert Hall, 312 Oak street. Miss Hall has been serving UNNRA in Germany as a secretary. Take it from her if you've ever dealt with the post war telephones or typewriters over there you'll never again lose your temper over either machine back here. Because of the slowup caused by both it took three people to handle a job that one could do in the U. so she says.

She's been rather a busy gal during the war years, Martini: out with Ited Cross In California, then doing' a stint for the war department at Randolph field, San Antonio, Texas, and finally land-ins: in Munich, Germany. She admits that Minneapolis looks pretty good to her after all her travels and with the help of United States employment service she plans to settle down in a job here. As for Munich it wasn't as bad as she expected. Housing was pretty rugged at first when she lived and worked in the same building. "It had been a school building and was pretty bad," she grimaced.

"The sewage was up to the first floor, the roof leaked and the furnace didn't work. We finally got an apartment building with those funny little tile stoves In each room and that wasn't bad at nil." the job of bombing the villa In Platterhof but whoever It was did an excellent job, in her "It's rlght in the mountains and rather obscure but the bombing must have been most accurate as the villa was in ruins." "It's almost Impossible to get to Platterhof in the winter time," Miss Hall explained. "After trying three times in a jeep and getting stuck we finally did the last mile on foot. I'm still trying to figure out how Hitler made the trip to the Eagle's nest in the winter months. He must have kept a battalion of soldiers on the job of keeping paths and roads cleared." Skiing in the Austrian Tyrol and vacationing in the lake country of England were other experiences enjoyed by Miss Hall while abroad.

The German UNNRA operation differed from others in that individual relief was given. Its job was the helping of displaced people of the United Nations and persecuted people of enemy nationals. No anemy nationals were aided. As to criticism which UNNRA has received in this country she had this to say: "People forget that the structures of these nations have been broken up which makes the job of relief most confusing. The job of operating a large organization such as UNNRA in a country such as Germany and in one such as ours is quite different.

People lost sight of that fact. There is no doubt that a great deal of good work is being done by UNNRA."

This offer coincides signficantly with B's serious court of you, to which your "best self" gratefully responds, simply means that A is willing to sign on as your husband if necessary to put out of the running.

Some time back I met a man, 32, and we were greatly attracted from the start. We dated steadily for about five months and then one night we lost our heads. A short time later I learned I was to have a baby. I wanted to quit my excellent job and go far away, to have the baby where no one knew me. He persuaded me to have an abortion, which I did under an assumed name.

This all happened about three months ago and I have been seeing him once a week since then on a platonic basis. Suddenly, two weeks ago, he proposed marriage. Now for the Immediate problem: About five years ago 1 met a young man from another city who was visiting relatives here. We dated a few limes, then he went home and we wrote. Later he joined the army and we continued the correspondence, lie returned from overseas two months ago and has visited me often since.

Last week he, too, proposed marriage; and he keeps telling me he loves me so much because I am such a good girl mentally, morally and spiritually. I love him and I know that he would leave me immediately if I told him what happened. I have a feeling that 1 ought to marry the other man, even though I am not in love with him since he knows my secret and is willing to accept me as I am. E. L.
