ELC = My boy friend came home
on a furlough. While he was here he
carried me out often. The day he
left he came over in the, morning
and told me goodbye. Then he went
out with an old girl friend and ran
the town down with her. What am
l to do? Should I write that I know
all of this and more or just forget
it?
Ans: Don't get sore with this fell
low. He's unattached and he will
make it his business to run the town
down with pretty girl whenever
the opportunity presents itself. So
take it in stride. Two can play the
game - you must not sit around
and pine your heart out waiting for
him. Encourage this other friend
who is showing so much interest in
you at this time.

Try 70 Reach Sweden,
Fearing Finnish Pact
By the Assoeioied Press

HELSINKI, Finland, Mar. g.
Many Finnish-speaking Karelians
today were reported trying to flee
across Finland's far northern bor-
der into Sweden. These stateless
people were alarmed by prospects
of Finnish Russian treaty negotia-
tions.
Press dispatches telling Of the
flights reached Helsinki as govern
ment sources predicted that Fin
land would reach a decision Mon
day on the question of opening ne
gotiations for a treaty of friend
ship and military alliance with
| Russia.
The extent of the Karelians' ex-
odus was not revealed. One account
said a group of 80 Karelian men,
women and children was stopped
at the frontier last night.
Finnish coastal guards along the
Gulf of Bothnia said the Karelians
have made no effort thus far to
escape to Sweden by sea-
Formerly Russian Citizens.
Formerly Russian citizens, the
Karelians moved to Finland around
1920. Because these people have
not received Finnish citizenship
they fear Finland may be forced
to turn them over to Russia II a
Finnish -Soviety friendship agree
ment is reached, informants said.
President JUNO Paasikivi con-
ferred for two hours today with
the Finish governments six-man
Foreign Affairs Committee on Rus
sia's request for treaty.
Government sources said the COM
mittee would meet again Monday
morning to formulate its recon-
mendation. Following that session,
the 18-man cabinet will convene to
give the issue final consideration.
The cabinet has been advised to
stand by for a possible emergency
session.
Informants indicated the govern
ment probably would appoint dele
CATION to meet with the Russians
but it's powers would be strictly
! limited.
1t was believed such delegation
would seek a full outline of what
Russia wants before taking the next
step. A majority of the Finnish
parliament opposes any military tie

Prime Minister Stain nearly two
weeks ago.
President Not Enthusiastic.
A government minister said: I'VE
realize fully that if we accept the
proposal we would formally belong
to Russia's eastern bloc. That is
something we should like to avoid. ="
There was no indication that any
decision was made at today's con-
ference. However, Paasikivi and the
members of the foreign affairs COM
mittee were believed to have dis
cussed the makeup of a delegation,
should Finland decide to take up the
negotiations.
1t appeared clear that the agrari-
ans. conservatives and liberals-all
of whom opposed negotiations OF
anv sort on the basis of Stains
proposal-could not be represented
on the delegation.
Paasikivi himself was reliably re-
ported to be unenthusiastic about a
military alliance. OF the nation S
fsix parliamentary groups only the
| Communist dominated popular front
bloc is supporting a full military
alignment with the Soviet Union.

German Leader Warns
On Lesson of Prague

BERLIN. Mar. 6 t4't--A German

Communist seizure, of power in
Czechoslovakia demands from
every German an immediate de-
cision whether he stands for the
preservation of the rights of mar

The statement was made by
Jacob Kaiser, a leader Of the con-
servative Christian Democratic
Party. He addressed a political
mass meeting in the United States
sector of Berlin.
Kaiser recently was forced out
of the craftsmanship of the party
in the Russian zone of the city be-
cause of Soviet pressure.
The lesson of Prague erases fol-

Czech Trade Minister
Hopes 10 Keep Doing
Business With West
BY the Associoted Press


PRAGUE, Mar. 6.-Foreign Trade
Minister Antonin Gregor expressed
the hope today that Czechoslovakia
could continue TO do business with
western nations.
The Communist minister told a
news conference that Czechoslo-
vakia planned to step up her ex-
ports to 48 per cent with the east
ern or "planned-economy'' coun-
tries and to get the rest OF her
trade elsewhere. He defined west
ern nations as those lacking a
planned economy regardless Of their
actual geographic location.
Gregor said his country-now
under q Communist-controlled gov
ernment-was ready to start trade
negotiations at any time with Brit
ain. He announced new trade
agreements are under way with
Norway and Belgium and said
agreements with France and Swift
zerland have been temporarily ex-
tended.
A delegation went to Brussels last
Saturday to initiate negotiations for
new treaty, expected to be much
along the lines of the pact recently
concluded with Holland by DR..
Hubert Ripka, the former foreign
trade minister. Discussions with
Norway and Switzerland have been
under way for some time.
An agreement with France was
extended indefinitely OH its old terms
when the discussions hit a snag
over the question of exchange,
Gregor said. Exchange difficulties
also prevented conclusion of a new
agreement with Switzerland at this
time.
Both the minister and his chief
expert, Even Loebl, said Czecho-
slovakia would try to correct un-
favorable trade balances by in
creasing exports rather than by
reducing imports.
Gregor said Czechoslovakia will
nationalize her foreign trade but
will not deva1ue currency to set up
q special trade dollar value.
Foreign import and export agents
would be unaffected by the new
law, the minister said, but they
probably would have to deal with
governmental agencies in Prague
rather than with individuals.
The conference developed dis
cussion of the grain help given
Czechoslovakia by Russia. Ameri-
cans and British reporters quickly
gained an admission from Gregor
and Loebl that the UNRRA aid
given the year before had been
sizaole.

A former motorcycle daredevil and
the son of retired assistant super
intendent are leading candidates for
two of the three captaincies due to
be filled soon in the Metropolitan
Police Department..
Those in line for promotion, it was
learned yesterday, are 1t. Anthony
Richitt, A, onetime chief of the de-
partments team of stunt riders, now
assigned to the No. 3 precinct, and
1t. Thomas Earle Edwards, AZ, of the
No. 9 precinct, whose father, Inspec-
tor l.. I. H. Edwards, retired in 194l.
There was no indication at head
quarters as to who might be named
to the third captaincy.
One Vacancy Exists.
One vacancy already exists created
by the retirement March l of Inspec-
tor John H. Fowler, training officer,
and the promotion of Capt. Walter
T. Storm. The other vacancies will
occur with the expected early retire
ments of Inspector Clement P. Cox,
chief and property clerk Of the de-
partment, and Capt. Benjamin c.
Kuehling of the 18th precinct.
Both have appeared before the
Board of Police and Fire Surgeons
and are scheduled to go before the
Police Retiring Board soon.
A department spokesman ex-
planned the civil service list for
promotion to the rank of captain
was being held up by the Civil Serv-
ice Commission pending revision OF
some of the scores made on the
examination held last fall. Some
questions had been eliminated from
the scoring following appeals by a
number of policemen who took the
test, it was said.
Show Staged in 1929.
1t. Richitt's early motorcycle
antics caused him to be regarded
as foolhardy, and Inspector Milton
D. Smith, then captain in charge
of the Traffic Division, found it
necessary to warn him against
stunting.
In 1929, however, Capt. Smith,
himself an accomplished stunt rider,
decided to form a stunt team to
participate in a show staged for the
benefit of the departments retire.

then a private, in charge, and the
daredevils thrilled spectators at the
annual Griffith Stadium shows for
number of years.

schools there. He Joined the Ma

While in Washington as member

Harding at a Shriners' convention,

of the force and decided to join on
his discharge. He did, in November,
1925, and was assigned to No. 4 pre-
cinct as foot patrolman.
Fellow privates there at that time
included Supt. Robert J. Barrett,
Chief of Detectives Truscott and
Capt. William J. Cunningham of the
10th precinct.
Became Lieutenant in 1945.
1t. Richitt joined the traffic divi-
sion as a motorcycle policeman in
1928 after riding awhile in the
No. 4 Precinct. He was promoted
to sergeant in 1910 and to lieutenant
in 1945, when he was transferred to
the No. 3 Precinct.
