Malaya Bandits Still Keep
VResidents Close to Cities
IStayton A letter received recently by Mrs. Delmer Lars
abrecht from a cousin, Eric Johnson who is with the United Engi
neers at Kuala Lumpur, Malaya, says in part:
w t"We are rather disappointed about the devaluation of sterling
s it will be almost impossible for us to go to Canada on leave
4tO visit my parents. We would
sonly get 36 cents for a dollar
'blt too much for our bankroll
''Just now. However, that will
not until 1951, so many things
en happen before then.
". ii-i "We are still having lots of
; trouble with bandits here and
Jit is not safe to go far from
4town. I suppose the troops and
ivpolice will finally come out on
' top; but it does seem to take a
-long time. Kuala Lumpur looks
rather like an old western town
these days, with all the men
,- packing pistols, tommy - guns
.'and others, and hordes of troops
-and police all around. The gov-
crnor of Sarawak was knifed
the other day too, and has since
'iled, and that of course, will
'''.create a lot of unrest in Sara
wak and Borneo.
t $ "I suppose the weather out
iKyour way is cooling off a bit.
Here it Is very hot just now,
temperature about 90 or over.
It was cool last week with hea
vy rains, about an Inch an hour.
The nights here are a bit cooler
than in Singapore, but not very
much."

In Ad Has Many Seekers
North Hollvwood. Calif.. Jan. 24 J.R) A 27-year-old former
radio actress said today she has received two marriage proposals
and 60 requests for her expected illegitimate child whom she
offered for adoption in a newspaper ad.
She gave her name only as "Celeste" in order not to embarrass
her family or former husband.
said she couldn't take care of
the expected child unless she
got married or got a job.
"I so much would like to keep
my baby," she said, "but it
wouldn't be fair. I don't have a
job and wouldn't be able to take
care of it properly.
"I can't expect to fall in love
with someone on such short no
tice, or with someone I have just
met," she said, "but I do expect
him to love my children,
"Love is a slow thing and if
we are together, it will come,
'I have had two marriage
proposals on the telephone," she
said. "They just said they were
interested and marriage-minded."
"One was a very young man
in his 20's and the other was in
his 50's," she said. "The older
man said his earnings were
quite substantial.'
"I would consider marrying a
man who is stabilized and loves
children, but I wouldn't marry
just anyone."
.
Celeste said she was forced to
offer the child, which will be.
born out of wedlock, for adop
tion because its musician father
"shirked responsibility."
"I was very much in love
with the baby's daddy," she
said. "He's a grand person. He's
one hundred per cent."
The model and dancer said all
who wanted the baby were
"substantial people" owning
their own businesses and trying
desperately to adopt a child.
"But they're all above age,"
she explained. "Some would
give their lives for a baby.
They're walking around in a
daze because they want a child
so badly."
She said she has been able to
eliminate only one or two of the
many persons who asked to
adopt the child.
"They all have so much love,"
she said.
Celeste has a three-year-old
son, Robin, by a previous mar
riage. Because she was "barely"
able to take care of him, she

Celeste expressed regret that
all the older persons wanting
her child could not obtain chil
dren through accredited agen
cies.
"I'd be happy if my story and
my advertisement would result
in just one thing," she said. "If
they would just make it easier
for these poor people to get chil

greatest thing in their lives."
"Why should age make such a
difference?" she asked.
"I hope that others can get
children, and that I will be able
to keep my baby," she said.
