Washington President Eisenhower, on why his chief White House aide, Sherman Adams, has every right to make publie addresses: "He knows exactly what I believe, what are my con victions, my policies, and he attempts to make his speeches xactly in that line." Washington Theodore O. Yntema, Ford vice president, ea why he wouldn't spell out. the conditions for putting into effect his proposal that the government stop collecting iaxet if the current business slump gets any worse: "It's the idea that's important."

He has the prosaic name of Paul Mueller, is 60, has thin ning grey hair, prominent fea tures and wean glasses. He has a timid, retiring manner, looks like a rural laborer and has no resem blance to anyone most people I ; would consider a lady-killer, i Kilt nnllna nrhn iirora hi, 1 trail for 18 months dubbed him "the heartbreaker" with good reason. They called him one of the most dangerous examples of the "marriage swindler," who preys on West Berlin's 490, 000 lonely women. Police found him at his work in the home of a pros perous widow who owns a West Berlin inn. Gives Money To Swindler The widow already had giv en Mueller 2,000 marks ($500) to finance their planned "marriage," police said. Mueller was accused of col lecting sums of up to 2,500 marks (625) from numerous other marriage-seeking wom en. Because of the shortage of marriageable men, "marriage swindling" has become a well paid profession here. Looks, fine clothes, groom ing, nfoney, a good job are not needed. In this city of lonely women all you need for the job is lack of character, some ruth lessness and the ability to promise marriage to girls who want a husband. Women Want Husbands There are very many wom en who do want a husband. Most of them have no chance of .getting one. Of West Berlin's popula tion of 2.200.000 300,000. This gives a surplus of 400,000 women. But that figure tells only part of the story.

Of these, 245.000 are widows, 75,000 divorcees and 170,000 single girls who were never married. Most marriage swindlers use the same method as Muel ler. Police say he met his vic tims by putting advertise ments in lonely hearts col umns. Many German news papers and magazines run columns of "husband want ed" and "wife wanted" adver tisements. ' Numerous marriage bu reaus also, cater to the needs of lonely people and provide a fertile field for adventurers. The marriage swind-ler meets a lonely woman through an advertisement or an agen cy, quickly proposes marriage and sets a date for the wed ding. Shortly before the wedding, he borrows money to meet a financial obligation or to make a 'down payment on a home or 'to meet some wedding expense. With the money in his pock et he is off to answer another advertisement and repeat the process. , Library To Compete With Din of Traffic Leominster, Mass.
