Helping troops in transit be-
tween trains at Union Station is
the job of USO Lounge there.
And they do a splendid one of
it. too, under the direction of
Miss Elizabeth Bealer.
The boys can relax in the big,
airy and comfortably furnished
lounge. They can even go to
sleep and they'll be walked in
time to make their trains. They
can write at the well-stocked
writing desks provided for their
use, and what is perhaps most
important of all, they can get all
kinds of information about the
city from the volunteers at the
special information desk. If
they want to read and have a
smoke, there are books and
magazines. There is also
check room for their bags and
belongings.
These boys would certainly
miss the slowing down of the
fine service of this lounge, and
in order to maintain 1t during
the summer more volunteers
are needed to replace those who
are taking well-earned vaca-
tions, Miss Bealer said. For
instance, the Senate ladies who
have been so faithful all winter
will be taking off soon for home
and requirements are urgently
needed for their weekly time
every Wednesday from l to 4
pm. Volunteers are needed for
every other day, too, especially
daytime volunteers.
The applicant must register
at the CDVO at Thirteenth
street and Pennsylvania avenue.
There they are given a form to
fill out, which is sent to the
USO Lounge director, who tele-
phones them and arranges for
an interview. There are four
discussion groups year, giving
the volunteers pointers on how
to give directions and informa-
ton, and there is always a paid
supervisor in attendance to
assist them.

Sir Herbert stressed that until
such time as a person is declar-
ed to be non-repatriable he will
be under the care of UNRRA-
UNRRA can give only temporary
relief and is not authorized to as
sist refugees to emigrate to new
homes. That is the job of the In
ergovernmental Committee. Here
is where the ''Softening up
comes in. The governments con-
cerned apparently hope that af-
ter a refugee has remained in a
camp for a year or two under
something less than ideal condi-
tons, he will be ready to listen to
suggestions that he return to his
country of origin. This is borne
out by another statement of Sir
Herbert's:
while the original idea was to
consider a non-repatriable one
who did not want to return to
his country" the refugee COM
mittee chairman said, 1.-THE trend
of opinion now is to give time
to the person to learn more about
conditions in his country and to
give the governments more time
to satisfy their nationals that they
can return to their countries with
prospect of leading a healthy nor
NAL life, before reaching the
definite conclusion that the per-
son must be treated permanent
ly as a non-repatriable." :
