French and German Diplomats
Exchange Greetings at Border
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
A, ,ASTERrAM, Sept. 6. The
staffs Of the German Embassy to
Paris and the French Embassy to
Berlin entered their respective
homelands early yesterday after ex-
changing trains in the tiny Dutch
frontier station of Oldenzaal.
About 100 members of the Ger
man Embassy, including women and
children, were aboard the train
from Paris arriving at SIS am.
The train left the French capital
Sunday night, but was delayed on
what normally is a seven hour trip
to maintain its proportionate dis
tance from Oldenzaal with the
German train.
Ambassador Coulondre of France
and his party of 80 reached Olden-
zaal from Berlin Monday night.
The members of the two en-
bassies greeted each other cor
daily in the station, which was
under the guard of Dutch soldiers.

Washington Girl, "a,
Escapes Gdynia
On Last Vessel
Says Sneoking From
Horbor Without Lights
Was Lots Of Fun

Fleeing from Warsaw a week be-
fore that Polish city was first
bombed, 14-year-old Marie Jeanne
Wright was back at her home to-
day at 435 Tenth street NE. after
travelling alone to Gdynia and find-
ing passage on the last ship to
leave that port for the United
States.
To dark-haired Marie, who was
studying music with her sister, Mrs.
Zdzislaw Klimpel in Warsaw, the
entire trip back home was "lots of
fun"
But to her mother, Mrs. Virginia
Belle Wright, it was anything but
fun until her daughter arrived at
New York yesterday aboard the
overcrowded steamship Batory,
which had sailed from the Polish
seaport on August "a.
Marie had to admit it was good
being back in America, where you
don't see them digging trenches
everywhere" AS for the trip on
the Batory, she liked best of all
the sneaking out of harbor without
lights.
Travelling alone on a train from
Warsaw to Gdynia, Marie spent
nearly IL hours wrangling for a
passage on the Gdynia American
Line ship. If it had not been for
her knowledge of Polish, which she
speaks quite well for a young lady
of IA, Marie might still have been
stranded abroad.
Even on the boat Miss Wright
found little time for being lonely.
She travelled in company with
group of American students.
She went to Warsaw in January,
1898, and stayed with her sister, a
former Washington girl, who mar
ried Mr.. Klimpel in September,
1885, when the latter was connected
with the Polish Embassy here. Mr..
Klimpel is now an official in the
ministry of foreign affairs.
With one daughter safely at
home, Mrs. Wright still had the
worry of her married daughters
welfare. The last word she received
from Mrs. Klimpel she was plan
ming to move into the country
away from Warsaw, although her
husband was reported i'll.
