1 Woman Paper
Binds Prisoners'
Folks in States
By Joanne Kdum
fUniU-d PreM Ktafl Corrtni)onilnt
Charlotte, N. C. IP The wife
of Lt. Col. Arthur J. Grimes,
missing in action in the Philip
pines since 1941, recently celebrat
ed the first birthday of her one
woman newspaper, which lor the
past year has served as a tie
among families in the states
whose husbands or sons have
been missing in action since the
fall of Bataan or held as prison
el's of war since 1941.
Marie Grimes, editor, writes
copy for the paper, edits letters
from over the country that make
up the news, and puts the final
proof to bed herself, all in time
she can spare from her regular
volunteer civilian defense Job dur
ing the day.
The four-page "Philippine Post
scripts" originated with Editor
Grimes and Mrs. LaOrand A. Dil
ler, wife of Col. LaGrand (Pic)
Dilier. former aide to Gen. Mac-
Arthur in Australia and now staff
public relations officer.
- Ilea 500 Subscrllters
Both Mrs. Grimes and Mrs. Dil
ler were evacuated from the Phil
ippines In February, 1941, and ar
rived in San Francisco in March.
The two women conceived the
idea for the paper last fall, when
the first edition was mailed to 100
subscribers. This month, the sub
scription list hud reached more
than 500 and letters were still
pouring in to the editor to be sort
ed, edited and published.
"Philippine Postscripts" is
made up mainly of letters written i
to the editor by wives witn hus
bands on the islands and the let
ters nearly always Include news
from the Philippines. Even a rorm
card from a soldier husband in a
Japanese prison camp Is news, ac
cording to Mrs. Grimes.
Eager to Share News
She says that wives are anxious
to share word, which comes so
seldom, with others longing for
bits of news from places where
members of their families might
be on Formosa or with guerrilla
fighters in Bataan or Luzon, In
several cases, wives have learned
of husbands' whereabout or con
dition Indirectly through names
mentioned in one pf "Postscripts"
published letters.
The letter in the March edition
from Mrs. Adele Walnwrlght, wife
of Gen. Jonathan M. Walnwrlght,
who capitulated with his men af
ter the battles of Bataan and Cor
regldor, is typical". . . Three
letters and one card have come
from "Skinny" (Gen. Waln
wrlght) since May of 1942. , . .
Said he had a cable from me in
February, 1943, and no letter since
November, 1941. Also that he was
better than the past year, weigh
ed 125 pounds and that living con
ditions were a little better. . . .

Dr. Bernharflt Rust, above. Hit
ler's minister for science and ed
ucation, is considered by the
United Nations War Crimes
Commission as one of the lead
ing German doctors responsible
for "human guinea pig" vivi
section experiments that took
the lives of thousands of slave
laborers and political prisoners
and keeps all sewing and wool
there. My days are filled with
work and so they pass. ... I hope
that the end of this awful waiting
will come sooner than we can ever
hope."
Mrs. Grimes says that most of
tho letters from husbands In Japa
nese prison camps say something
like this one in another edition of
her paper "Please see that the
memory of times we have had and
will have again keep you nappy.
If families keep health and faith
as I have we will all be together
soon.
Work While Waiting
Most of the families who lived
together In the islands before be
ing evacuated and separated are
doing the same things while wait
ing for their "boat" to come back,
Mrs. Grimes says. Letters she re
ceives are from wives of officers
who are working for the Red
Cross, in defense plants, in of
fices, or making homes for chil
dren and waiting.
Wrote Maj. Gen. Allen W. Gul
llon, former, provost marshal, to
the editor ": . . The community

lizing a laitn in the ultimate sur
vival of your men In the Far East,
and that faith and tho expression
of It will serve as theiritual does
in religion to help overcome ap
parently Insuperable obstacles."
The paper Is financed by the
subscribers who send Mrs. Grimes
amounts ranging from a dollar to
$30, and the paper probably will
grow, according to the editor, un
til lt has outgrown Its purpose and
it is closed witn

Formosa Railroad Town Destroyed
Fishermen Report
Excellent Luck
Onenlne' of the angling season
in several lakes of the Cascades
country yesterday found sports
men equally disappointed ana
pleased with their luck, according
to reports today.
Limit catches were made in
South Twin lake, which was
opened to angling for the first
time in three years. But the fish
were found to be spawning, ap
parently having reverted to orig
inal type, spring spawners.
This discovery led to the belief
of many anglers that the opening
date for fishing in the lakes
should be later, In order to allow
the fish to complete spawning.
Trout In South Twin lake were
the offspring of what Is known
as the Utah rainbow, having been
developed by the federal fish and
wild life service 15 years ago in
the Wasatch mountains of that
state.
Good catches were reported in
East and Elk lakes, but muddy
conditions reportedly interfered
with angling in the Deschutes.

Former French Movie Stars

the quality of her performance in
her first play since liberation,
"Tristan and Iseult." Critics also.
have panned her and the play,
which will close shortly.
Luclenne Boyer was warmly
welcomed, to Paris, where she has
been singing in a "boite." During
the occupation she refused so
many times to work in Germany
that she and her husband took
i refuge in an obscure French vil
lage and helped distribute under
ground tracts. i
Several famous actors and ac
tresses preferred to carry on
abroad rather than In nazified
France. Louis Jouvet has return
ed after a long tour of South
America with his troupe and is
again directing his "Theatre Ath
enee." '
Francoise Rosav worked for the
Free French in North Africa and
England. Claude Dauphin is with
the French army, but gave a few
performances in a current hit
here, "Une Grande Fille .Tout
Simple." Jean Pierre Aumont has
pone to America to fe(ch his wife,
Hollywood actress Maria Montez.
Gravey in Demand
Fernand Gravey and Pierre
Fresnay are two prewar stars
who are much sought after today.
Gravey appeared in films during
the occupation, one of which,
"Pamela," a story of the French
revolution, will be released short
ly. Fresnay has been divorced
from the famous actress Yvonne
Printemps, whose husbands also
included Guitry.

lady who rides her bicycle around
Paris and who appears occasion

ELDERLY MAN FOUND

Will Not Kill) Off
By Robert Abler
(United PreM Staff Correspondent)
Paris iu Six months after lib
eration, most French movie stars
have taken up where they left off
before the war, which Is more
than can be said for. many other
French celebrities.
Politicians, novelists and jour
nalists have been tried and jailed
all over France for collaboration,
but relatively few actors have
The most famous exception,
Sacha Guitry, has been released
from a grimy, crowded cell in the
internment camp at Drancy, a
suburb of Paris. Irate FFI mem
bers pailed him for his lavish en
tertaining of Otto Abetz, De Bri
non, and other high-ranking nazis..
The authorities decided that His
social activities, however, dubious
were Insufficient for a trial. Late
ly he has made a few tentative
appearances as a,spectator in the
aters and night clubs, but public
opinion would be firmly against
him as a performer.
Arletty, for years one of
France's leading comediennes,
starred in one of the best films
made under Vichy, "Les Visiteurs
du Soir." The film has been ac
claimed here since liberation, but
Arletty Is in jail as a collabora
tionist. With her, charged with
spying, is Dita Parlo, remember
ed In the famous French film
about the last war, "Grande Illu
sion." Chevalier on Tour
An older and grayer Maurice
Chevalier is touring the provinces
after a few appearance at the
Casino de Paris. The British home
office recently refused him a visa
for a tour of England on the
grounds that his visit would not
help the war effort. Chevalier was
on the defensive for several weeks
after liberation, charged with col
laboration. But the entertainment
committee cleared him and said
that his appearances in Germany
were only to set free French pris
oners. Danielle Darrieux is as pretty
as ever after four years in occu
pied France. But Latin quarter
students have shouted Insults at
absence of electricity during the.
daytime. Films were made at
night. Some took a year to com
plete, but the directors were after
quality, not quantity; and the re
sult was such outstanding films
as "Visiteurs du Soir" and "Eter
nal Retour," in which are mingl
ed castles of the middle ages, love
charms, modern cars and guns. ,
The occupation produced sev
eral new stars. Maria Casares is
an actress of stage and screen
who is currently hailed as the new
Sarah Bernhardt. She appears in
"Les Enfants du Paradis," a Mar
cel Carne film of crime In 19th
century Paris. Madeleine Presle
and Madeleine Sologne are other
new stars.
