Three Day Pass
to Luxembourg

Fairy tales don't often happen to
Army personnel in the midst Of the
war But Cpl. Marie Hennericy
Of North Bellmore, Long Island,
N. Y, has already lived one. :.
Leaving her Luxembourg birthplace
for the United States, sixteen years
ago, Cpl. Hennericy learned to speak
English and became an American
citizen. With the outbreak of the
war, all communication with her
parents In Nazi-occupied Luxem-
bourg ceased. Then she enlisted in
the WAC with fond hope that
one day she would return home
with victorious American Army.
Due to her ability to speak French
and German, she was sent overseas
as q translator with the Engineer
Corps. Landing in Normandy
two months after D-Day, she
learned from the French people
how hard had been the four years
Of occupation, and her fears for
her family's safety increased. After
the liberation Of Luxembourg, q
pass was given her and the Army
PRO arranged transportation for
her with some war correspondents.
Arriving at her home in a jeep, she
trembled with anticipation of what
may have transpired during the
four years Of silence. AS the door
opened, she threw her arms about
her mother, who could only say,
"But 1t can't be you, you're in Amer
ica."
To her intense relief she learned
that the order for her parents, who
had already been packed to move
TO labor camp, was cancelled only
because they were over the age
limit Of IS. Then after three days of
relaxation in her birthplace home.
over which shells whizzed but two
weeks previously, Cpl. Hennericy
was back at her drawing board In
the Engineers Office in Paris, eter-
nally grateful for the opportunities
presented to her by her service In
the WAC.

of her habits of drinking intoxicat-

lis prepared if necessary to use his
good offices to induce Marshal Stain
to be lenient" in the imposition OF
peace terms on Finland.
The unofficial service publication
added that "Helsinki unquestionably
would be disposed to surrender to
us. but that is a hot iron we will
not handle. What we are endeavor-
ing to do is to bring about a COM
position between Russia and Finland
on terms mutually acceptable and
in the interest of victory we will
naturally do everything we properly
can to achieve it
(Finland is at war with Russia,
but is not with the United States.
Mr.. Hull in recent press con-
ference emphasized that it is the
feeling of the United States that
whether Finland remains in the
war is responsibility of Finland
alone)
Mr.. Hull's warning to Finland to
get out OF the war or suffer the
consequences of Soviet conquest, the
Journal said, is responsible for the
preliminary peace feelers being ex-
changed by Finnish and Russian
representative in Stockholm.
