Associated Press War correspondent
SEOUL, Korea. Dec. 8.-Milly
the Mouse is an adventures.
She is a Korean version of the
American victory girl Of World
War II. Her job is to entertain
and dance with American officers
in the only night club open in
this wartime capital after dark.
Night clubs for the enlisted men
close at dusk.
Milly is slender. black haired.
dark eyed girl of 81 who stands
about feet tall in her high heels.
She is perhaps the best jitterbug
in Seoul and she loves to show off.
Her broad small face gives such
"a look of child-like ecstasy when
she is whirling with a good part
ner that even soldier wallflowers
sitting lonely at her table like to
watch and buy her a drink after
ward.
ut makes me feel better just
to see any one having such fun"
one said. "Over here some times
you forget there is such a thing
as real fun left in the world"
Fun Is Destroying Her.
This fun, however, is gradually
destroying Milly the Mouse. Her
popularity is becoming her own
doom.
She is wearing out her vibrant
body, her mind, and her soul
such as it is-trying to grab what
Quick economic security she can
from a collapsing jitterbug world.
She is Goth century Becky Sharp
the heroine Of William Make
peace Thackeray's Vanity Fair" /"
But the odds are hopelessly
stacked against Milly in this Far
Eastern Vanity Fair. That is what
makes her courage and her energy
and her frank female opportunism
50 sad.
"All I want is to find a nice CT
and marry him and go back to the
United States with him and be
happy" she says.
But so far she has encountered
no matrimonial volunteers. Her
dream is the dream Of many
Korean dancehall girls. She has
a baby she says was fathered by
an American soldier who never
married her. And she estimates
some 200 Korean girls in Seoul
have the same problem. 1t is a
bitter sorority, as the Korean men
Evening star., 1950-12-08

are crudely critical of their plight
Sometimes their criticism has
reached the point where they
smash in the faces or cut off the
hair of Korean girls left behind
by their American lovers.
Double Duty Girl'
Milly the Mouse is killing her
self by being a double-duty girl.
She dances from ! pm. until 5:55
pm. in an enlisted mems side
street dancehall. Then she rushes
over to the Capitol Club. the
officers hangout. and keeps on
her feet until II pm.
She makes between 500 and
5000 month. That is a tremen-
dous salary here. But her ward
robe is thin. And a new dress or
winter coat costs $50 to $75.
Milly says she originally had
everything a dancehall girl needs
to be glamorous. but "the Com
munists took it all away from me"
This is undoubtedly an exag-
geration. but it is fashionable.
Many dancehall girls love to pre-
tend they were practically queens
before the arrival of the nasty
visitors from the north.
There is no real enduring Sc
curity for girls like Milly. Because
she sees no permanence in her life,
because her energy is wearing low,
she has taken to accepting the
drinks she should turn down. And
she drinks half a watery glass Of
whisky at a gulp. She doesn't
know any better.

|MHys Wearing Herself Out as GIs' Little Pal

"Why everybody wants dance
with Milly?" she giggles. Then
she smiles with drunken compla-
cency as soldier says, Because
you dance the best"
Il looking for man who give
me evening dress. daytime dress,
overcoat, two slip. two brassiere.
two pairs silk stocking and one
pair high heel Shoes" she says.
Then she adds dreamily:
MY baby need clothes. my
mother sick, I got older brother in
jail, my younger brother want to
go to America and study. and I
Evening star., 1950-12-08

need house and jeep. You know
GI want marry me?"
Then she says, II sick. I
must 60 hospital tomorrow"
She lies so outrageously that If
she is called to task for it she ex-
plains candidly:
II must make lies to live"
And that is probably the COM
plete and utter truth as poor
Milly's world now begins to fall
apart around her.

still marvelously popular.
But dawn happens every day, whether
it is sung about or not
Mrs. E. D. B. of Decatur street reminds
us of this in writing:
MY husband and recently attended
a conference held in the foothills Of the
Blue Ridge Mountains. 1t is a lovely
spot The trees and grass on the sloping
lawns are beautiful.
zone morning we woke about 4:30 am.
and heard the bird songs.
Robins, the farmers of the bird world,
rise early and start their day with
song.
'I heard regular chorus of robins.
Some of them sounded near at hand.
When they were quiet others in the
distance took up the song.
''This vigorous, joyous concert must
have lasted at least half an hour. I
think that dozen or more robins were
singing at time. Each was singing in
bis own way and time. But the different
notes all blended.
II listened for other bird songs. I
heard the call of the night hawks, the
happy voices of the purple martins, and
the flute-like notes Of the wood pee-wee.
Later. when the robins hushed their
song and got down to their business of
clod-hopping for q living. heard in the
distance the moaning song of the dove.
Much later my ear caught the ex-
