MLP-.I am married, husband is in
the Service. | have been to Seattle,
Washington, like it fine there and
wish to return. But my mother does
not want me to go back. If |
should go, do you. think | would find,
a good job like | had before? Oh
woulC it be best that | remain at
home like mother says? | have a
friend who is married, but he says
he loves me. Do you suppose he
means it?
Ans: 1t would be unwise for you
to make a change of cities unless it
is absolutely necessary. Housing con
ditions are very overcrowded, espec>
tally in the cities. If you remain at
home with your mother, you can live
far more cheaply than in a big city.
The thing. for you to do is to go to
work there and become self-support-
ing. Learn to live on what YOU earn
and save your allotment SO o and
your husband will have something
to make a start on when he returns.
If you were working, you would not
have so much time to become %involv-
ed in these little flirtations. You
may not be taking this affair serious
ly, but any ENHANCEMENT involving
two married people usually has dis
aStrous results. Live in such a way
that when your husband returns, you
can face him with a clear conscience.
MRL-I'm in love with a boy in
the Navy and have been for five
years. He came home on a nine day
leave and told me when he came
back we would get married. While
he was at home, he also went to see
my first cousin. But | was the first
one he asked to court. Do you think
he has marriage on his mind?
Ans: The Navy is what he has on
his mind for the present while
his love affairs are taking a back
seat. He realizes that this isn't the
time for him to marry and sees no
reason why he shouldn't PLAY the
field until he is in a position to set
tie down to marriage. He isn't try
ing to tie you down to him either
he is being fair with you. You are
both young and should have a var
iety Of friends. Then when condi-
lions are more normal, you can dec
ide at that time if your romance
should illuminate in marriage.
RITZ am here away from home
and would like to know if it would
be advisable to buy a home here or
should | return to my home town and
buy?
Ans: Before buying a home, you
should take into consideration your
job and whether or not you plan to
remain there permanently. Properly
is at an all-time high now and you
wouldn't get the value received for
your money as you would later or.
Invest your money in war bonds and
wait until the war is over to purch-
ase a home.
PJH.-Fve been going with a
young man for the last four months
but lately my parents have objected
to my seeing him so until thought
it best to discontinue our friendship.
He is "a, a veteran Of this war, and
he thinks an awful lot of me, in fact
he tells me he loves me. l love him

Allied Forces Now Besieq- ing City Aim 10 Link
 Ledo, Burma Roads

SOU THEAST ASIA HEAD QUARTERS AT RANDY, Ceylon May 18.-In a surprise attack, cli- making the spectacular forced march over the rugged terrain, Am ericans and Chinese yesterday cap- tured Myitkyina airdrome and are now besieging the city of Myitkyina major Jap base in north Burma.
 The capture of the city is essen- tial to the success of General Joseph Stilwell's drive to link the new Ledc Highway with the old Burma Road, thus opening direct overland sup ply route to China.
 It appears likely that Myitkyina will fall before the coming of the monsoons
 Gen. Merrills jungle-wise Ma rauders played important roles in the capture of the airdrome in good condition, enabling the gliders and transports to land almost immed- lately with the American engineers and Chinese endorsements.

Warns Next Objective Is Series of Strong Moun-

WASHINGTON, May IS. = War Secretary Henry L. Stimson said the Allies in Italy are now begin ming to come in contact with the outposts of the heavily fortified Hitler line, and cautioned that the next step in the campaign would be exceedingly difficult
 The Gustav line has been crack ed. but the Hitler line, ranging from 10 to Is miles beyond, is series of mountain positions, heavily rein forced by German engineer units, using forced civilian labor. Even beyond that the mountains flank the routes to the north.
 Summarizing, Stimson said, we do not wish to make claims in ad- vance of our attainments, but ad- ded that the tangible" results of the campaign to date do not need advertising.

The W ashington Merry Go Round
By DREW PEARSON Ct. Col Robert s. Allen now on active
 service with the Army)

WASHINGTON = The President sometimes has been described as yindictive and unrelenting toward a foe whenever he gets the "old Dutch up." To some extent this IS true. Some who have crossed wires sharply with the President are never forgiven nor forgotten.
 On the other hand, he has shown remarkable streaks of forgiveness. Most notable recent example is the case of new Secretary of the Navy Forrestal. Very few people know of an incident which occurred a little over year ago at Forrestafs Georgetown mansion. But the President did.
 The General Electric Company has developed a new listening de- vice, on the principle of dicta- phone, by which outside parties can pick up conversations as far away as three miles. The device is extremely sensitive and does not need to have a dictaphone planted inside the room where the conver- sation is taking place.
 General Electric's ex-president Charley Wilson, efficient vice. chairman of the War Production Board, happened to have one of these devices and, one night, he tuned it in on the Forrestal home.
 It happened to be during the period when the Army and Navy were waging relentless war against the War Production Board, doing their best to oust Donald Nelson and take over WIPE duties them selves. It was a bitter feud, and Forrestal was holding council of war at his home Maybe the tun- ing in on the Forrestal home was pure accident, maybe it wasn't.
 Anyway. it so happened that din- ing with Forrestal that night were Undersecretary of War Patterson Bernie Baruch, and one or two high-ranking Army officers. The conversation during a large part oi the evening consisted of criticism of the Administration, especially ol the War Production Board, and in- cluding the President himself.
 TRANSCRIPT SHOWN TO FDR
 Bernie Baruch's high voice coulc be heard distinctly, taking some tough raps at his old friend, FDR As Baruch is deaf, the others talked in rather loud voices, among then Forrestal, who gave out his share oi Presidential criticism.
 In fact, the criticism of the Com mander- -in-C Chief was so vigorous and plans for Army-Navy taking

BIG BATTLE INpR0GRE55
 NEAR AITApE
Allied Planes Blast Jap Positions and En-
 emy Shipping

ADVANCED ALLIED HEAD QUARTERS IN NEW GUINEA, May l8.-Americans moving out of invaded Aitaps toward bypassed Wewak on the northwest New Guinea coast, encountered a Japa- nese force five days ago, and the resultant battle still may be in progress, headquarters spokesman said.
 The engagement is presented as a series of patrol clashes, but is in the 200 miles between Aitape and the Australian forces in the Madang area, estimated to be several thou sand, and the Japanese are believed to be from Wewak. The communique reported that the Japs were en- countered 34 miles southeast of the Aitape shoreline. That area is hardly more than narrow coastal cor ridor confined between the sea and mountain range.
 After the patrols engaged, Allied planes attacked the positions of the enemy and small coastal shipping in the Aitape vicinity, possibly in support of the land action.
