Miraculous Love Needed to Adjust
Girl, 10, Who Would Wed Man, so

DEAR MISS DIX: am 19 years
old and am in love with man
who is so. I have known him all
my life and loved him from the
time was small child and have
always said that when I was grown
would marry him. I have been
going around with him to places
ever since I was 16 and he has al
ways been good to me- We have
talked over marriage and both our
families agree to it, but he is afraid
that I am too young and that
when I am older I may find a
younger man and be sorry for hav-
ing married him. But that will
not happen because he fills my
heart as no boy does. When love
is this strong and has lasted SO
long, don't you think We can make
a go of it? VENITA.
ANSWER: Ordinarily I should
say that gap of 81 years between
a husband and wife is too much
even for love to span, and that
there is small chance of happi-
ness for either one in such an un-
equal marriage.
But YOUR case is such a very

peculiar one that the general OBJ
jections to a May-and- December
wedding do not seem as valid as
they are in most cases. Your love
for this man so much your senior
seems an obsession. For a little
child to have fallen in love with a
man older than her father and for
this love to have grown with her
growth and strengthened with her
strength, and for her never to have
faltered in her determination to
marry him is an almost uncanny
romance.
Evidently you are an old soul,
as our theosophical friends would
say, or else youth would call to
you instead of age. So perhaps
your calendar age does not matter.
The danger of an old man
marrying a younger girl is very
real because. as a general thing,
they not only have nothing in
common but their point of view is
antagonistic.
1t is easy to see why girl of 10
and man of SO may find it hard
to adjust themselves to each other.
Nothing but great and miracu-
lous love can do it.

Hun7eIsine Relates
State Department
Personnel Problem
By Ruth Dean

Criticism in the press has cost
the State Department the loss of
some potentially competent per-
sonnel. Carlisle H. Humelsine
Deputy UnderSecretary of State
in charge of administration, de-
clared yesterday.
Speaking at luncheon meet
ing of the 81st Congress Club at
the United Nations Club, Mr..
Humelsine declared: Some have
turned us down because of the
extraordinary criticism directed
against us. This has also left its
effect on our foreign service jun
iors. Applications from colleges
have fallen off this year for the
first time in long time"
Discussing the State Depart
ment's personnel picture. the
speaker asserted: 1--WE are in a
peculiar situation. If we have an
employe who turns out badly, we
have a lot of newspaper publicity
more than the average bad en-
ploye who doesn't turn out well in
other departments of the Govern
ment or private business"
Mr.. Humelsine emphasized that
the State Department "haS to be
careful" because it is a sensitive"
agency of the Government, and
because of that fact must take
extraordinary steps" to assure
the loyalty of its employees in the
interests of national security.
1--WE conduct a complete in
vestigation on applicants prac-
tically from birth to their present
place in life" he said. ITO operate
this program, we do what any good
business organization would do
We have competent man to run
tan ex-FBI agent"
Mr.. Humelsine pointed out that
this investigation system covers
not only potential employees but
those already in the department. |
1--WE have weeded out some for
