most curi-marriage
of the enter-
tainment
m e n t world.
When Sieber
was rushed to
a hospital the
reaction of
many persons
was "I didn't
know Dietrich was married."
Many who did were surprised
to hear the husband of the
'world's most glamorous grand
mother lived quietly here.
As Dietrich's name has been
linked down the years with such
handsome men as Michael Wild
ing and Jean Cabin, few people
remember she never divorced
the assistant director she mar
ried in 1924. Only when pressed
as to marriage plans with her
suitors does Marlene mention
her husband.
"Really," she will say with
raised eyebrows, "You forget I
am a married woman."
Husband Raises Chickens
For the last three years, Sieb
er, unknown to most of the film
colony, has lived in suburban
San Fernando Valley, Dietrich
is identified in the public mind
with beautiful legs, bangles and
glamour. But Sieber is a short,
rather stocky down-to-earth man
who raises chickens.
Sieber was an assistant di
rector when he met Marlene, a
bit player at UFA studios in
Berlin. After their marriage
she won several stages roles and
finally clicked in . a musical
comedy. Sieber pushed her to
ward stardom when he suggested
to director Josef Von Sternberg
that Marlene be starred in "The
Blue Angel"' the German film
that made her an international
celebrity.
Dietrich was imported to Hol
lywood as Paramount's answer
to Garbo. Sieber got a job hand
ling the French versions of Para
mount's pictures in Paris. Hus
band and wife met only on his
infrequent visits to Hollywood
or when she traveled to Europe.
'Matches' Related
The actress was paired with
Von Sternberg, the Late John
Gilbert, Douglas Fairbanks Jr.
and others.
After Sieber moved here Mar
lene frequently visited him at
his chicken farm, although
another woman is his steady
companion. The day she arrived
here from New York last week
she telephoned Sieber. Told he
was "ill, she rushed him to a
doctor. Hospital attendants say
they "never saw such a fuss as
she made."
Why has she never divorced
Sieber.
"She has no desire to marry
again . . . she's not the marryin'
kind," one friend explains. "She
wants freedom to do as she
pleases with no ties. A woman
is more protected as an estrang
ed wife than as a divorcee. This
way she doesn't have to get
seriously involved with anybody."

Los Angeles Writer Tells of Two
Weeks of Living as Buddhist Monk
Editor's note: Robert Balzer. a Los
Angeles writer, recently went through
the ritual of becoming a Buddhist
monk. In the following dispatch he
tells of his experience.
By ROBERT BALZER
Written for United Press
Hong Kong (U.R) For two
weeks I lived as a Buddhist
monk in a Cambodian pagoda
across the river from the royal
palace in Phnom Penh.
The word "retreat is a mis
nomer for this experience, for.
contrary to general understand
ing in the West, a pagoda is not
an "ivory tower. It contains no
escapists. It is the center of community-life,
carrying simultan
eously the responsibilities of
soirtual .well-being and educa
tion of the surrounding sangha,
or parishoners.
There are some 65,000 Bud
dhist monks in this independent
kingdom, about two-thirds of
whom assume the saffron robe
for only short periods as part of
their education. Yet it is this
spiritual army which gives Cam
bodia its indisputable integrity
as a nation dedicated to peace
ful neutrality.'
Twenty-five hundred years
ago, Prince Siddhartha, who, as
an eniigntenea Being Decame
the Buddha, left the world a
philosophy of personal conduct
which has endured to this day.

Peace and Happiness
As he concluded the rites of

Samdach Parh Dhamma Likket,
the distinguished abbot, looked
into my eyes, his own filled with
80 years of understanding, smil

as a monk but also in the days
as a layman to follow.

Kansas Plant Quits
Making Beet Sugar
Garden City, Kan. (U.R) For
the first time in half a century,
no sugar will be made in Kan
sas from the irrigated sugar
beet field in the Arkansas River
valley.
Preparations are under way
for this year's -crop in south
western Kansas, but the sugar
plant built here in 1906 won't
function.
The Garden City Co. was sold
last November to a larger con
cern in Colorado, The Holly
Sugar Corp. Under terms of the
contract, Kansas sugar beets will
be loaded at gathering points
near the farms, and shipped 200
miles into Colorado for refining.
The extensive open beet sheds
in use for 50 seasons are being
torn down here. The 300-foot
elevated tracks could handle
200 freight cars dumping beets
at once. In them are thousands
of tons of fine steel, with 7,200
feet of huge I-beams alone
Eighty-seven contractors sub
mitted bids for razing the sheds.
Dumped into huge piles, the
beets were sluiced into the re
finery by hot water under pres
sure. A contractor already has
removed an elevated track from
which thousands of carloads of
limestone and coke were dump
ed through the years to make
lime used in purifying beet juice
for sugar.
The old-fashioned freight cars
used to haul beets have been
torn to pieces. A steel firm
bought the metal.
This year Kansas sugar beets
are being grown only under irri
gation and in a smaller number
of counties. The area around
Garden City contains the major
acreage. Tractors and planters
are now going into the fields
with the end of winter.
razor and toothbrush.
I lived in a palm-thatched,
stilt-held solitary hut with a
highly polished, slatted bamboo
floor. Sole article of furniture
was one hard wooden bed, re
lieved only with ,the thinnest
straw mat. Being inadequately
upholstered myself, a hardship
was presented at once, solved
by folding robes and towels into
an inch-thick cushion.
Food? Each morning at 7 all
monks, with largo, pumpkin
sized covered bronze bowls und
er flowing chivaras, set out
bare-footed. As they stopped be
fore homes in the village, house
holders cheerfully came forth
with silver bowls of rice, ban
anas, meats enfolded in banana
leaf envelopes, sweets, fish,
soups, stews, breads, sauces,
delicacies such as the hearts of
palm, mushrooms, tropical
fruits. From the beginning, my
bowl was filled each day with
enough food for four monks!
Well Treated
Meditation may begin at the
hour you elect, but breakfast is
at 6 and lunch at 11. After mid
day, no solid food, only fruit
juices. Never having eaten but
two meals a day anyway, for me
this was-no hardship.' Fearing
that it might be, however, on
the day after ordination, 30 fe
male devotees of the village
came to the pagoda with a lavish
presentation of incomparably
delicious f6ods with ' the sym
bolic wish that I should never
go hungry, most particularly on
this day when I would, perhaps
for the first time, have no din
ner.
Each day of my two weeks,
dedication' as a Buddhist monk
brought me closer to the heart
of Cambodian life. As monks,
we visited the sick, assisted in
the dedication of a new pagoda
m a nearby village, performed
final rites at a cremation cere
mony, and offered grace in
chanted ustras before the feast
of a local festival.
Lower Columbia Flood
Threat Still Serious
Portland (U.R) The lower
Columbia river flood threat is
still serious despite increasing
early runoff and below normal
precipitation so far in April, the
weather bureau said yesterday,
A ..river forecaster sa:d the
April runoff was ahead of April
in 1948 when precipitation also
was above normal. The weather
bureau hopes for an early and
gradually runoff of the record
