MONDAY. NOVEMBER 12. 1962 MEDFOHD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON Young Australian Woman Member of UN Delegation Bv DONALD JOHNSTON United Nation. N. Y.-IUPII-Tonia Moffat is a type rare in . the formal world of diplo macy. She's 23, blonde, pretty, has large blue eyes and a live-foot-four figure that draws glances. It comes somewhat as a sur prise, therefore, that she is a regular member of the Aus tralian delegation and Is as signed to the important and complex General Assembly committee which deals with finances and personnel. "This is all so exciting and fascinating," she said in an 'interview. "I love it." ; Miss Moffat, daughter of a civil engineer, has been at the United Nations only since mid- ' September, but already she has become a familiar figure In the assembly hall and the corridors. She dresses taste fully, usually in print dresses, and flashes an engaging smile. "My biggest problem so far," she said, "has been get ting into the conference rooms. I have to keep my pass handy. The guards at first thought I was trying to sneak in." Accepted She quickly added that she has encountered no difficulty being accepted in diplomatic circles by her colleagues. At first she was the only woman In the 24-member Australian delagation, but another later was transferred to New York from Ottawa. Tonia, as she inevitably is called rather than diplomatic ally Miss Moffat, is a member of her government's Depart ment of External Affairs and is listed as an advisor with the delegation. She became a for eign service officer in Jan uary, 1061, after graduating from Melbourne university and passing the customary ex aminations and interviews. Asked why a pretty young woman would want to take up a career usually pursued by men, Miss Moffat replied modestly: "I don't like to say I thought 1 could be of particu lar service to the world. Act ually, everybody performs some service in whatever Job he has. Is that not so? Llkei Politici "But I liked politics and in tcrnational affairs and have studied in the field. I do have some ideas which I hope can be of ome worth. " Did perhaps a ypn for ti n vel influence her decision to enter the foreign service'; "No, sbe replied. "You can travel In many other Jobs.' While Miss Moffat has stud- led and traveled In Europe, her assignment to the United Nations Is her first acquain tance with the United States and New York. "New York is wonderful," she said. "There is so much to see. Before I leave, I hope to visit Uie stores and mu seums and attend the theater and do all sorts of things." Her primary concern is her work at the U. N. She is anx ious to take an active part in the work of her budgetary 100 FINANCING n All Sinlcl r Repair Work Drivt in far fraa aitimita or Call 772-6201 WHITNEY OLDS 415 So. Riversid committee and to learn as much as she can before mov ing on to her next post. Among the problems she will face as a member of the committee is the search for a formula for financing peace keeping operations and the communist demand for wider personnel representation in the Secretariat. To Germany After the Assembly session ends, Tonia will move on to Israel for a brief stay and then settle in Bonn, Germany, for a three-year stint as third sec retary at the Australian embassy. Her qualifications for the Bonn assignment stem princi pally from a year of study at Bonn university in 1960 on a West German federal scholar ship. She conccntralcd her studies on political science and economics. Tonia does not forsee a life time abroad with the foreign service. "I am close to my family," she explained, "I have two younger sisters. And 1 want to return to Australia after a while." A key factor in her career. the blonde diplomat conced ed, is that marriage automat ically eliminates women from the Australian foreign service. "I would not want to rule out marriage," she said, turn ing on her winsome smile.
