Comparing life "Somewhere In Belgium" to the busy routine of his work as crew dispatcher for the Southern Pacific, Pvt. Richard W. Pex, writes home from overseas. He is the son of Mr. and Mrs. John J. Pex, 2036 Vine, and the following letter was sent to his aunt, Mrs. Earl Masters of Dunsmuir, formerly of this city: 'This Is vour adopted nephew again with another sad story. I haven't had so many troubles since the night I called a Shasta engine crew for a wrecker east when I should have pulled the engine crew off the second 16 that, was already called. I can still remember that night. I had two brakemen yelling about a runaround, that fireman, Ed wards, was yelling mat ne ueci up for eight hours' rest and it wasn't his fault if it wasn't on the register, both phones were ringing, one of my call boys was In jail for speeding, and there weren't enough men on the board to start a poker game. "Then 'Pop' Sprague came in and I said to myself, 'if he so much as opens his mouth, 1 11 walk out!' but he yelled at everybody else to shut up and get out ot my omce, answered the telephones for me, and even talked the cops into turning my call boy loose. I always have thought he was a swell guy ever since, even though I was in his office every other morning for an investigation. "I was in Welkenraedt, Bel gium, when the Jerries made their break-through. It is about three miles from and about 15 miles from . They didn't get to us, though, and outside of a few stray paratroopers, a little air activity, and the usual steady stream of buzz-oomDs going Dy, they didn't bother us much. It's funny how one plane and pilot can keep 100 men working like the devil using up five times tho value of the plane in ammuni tion. "Thev have some very pretty flares, though, and tracer bullets are always pretty to watch at night as long as they are not coming toward you. The buzz bombs are. or rather were, more of a curiosity than a danger, be cause most of them went on by, although a few of them dropped in on us from time to time. "Just enough to keep the local window merchant in business. I eot bounced out of bed by one, but that's the closest one ever came to me. They don't sound like you would expect a rocket ship to sound, but more like a big Mack truck pulling a heavy load up a steep grade. They make the windows rattle like castcnets when they come with in two or tnree miles. My steel neimet gypea me out oi a fur pie Heart medal when a piece of anti-aircraft shrapnel fell on it. I had a swell Christmas and New Year anyway, at the home ot a nttic Dutch (Holland) girl who lived there. She and her mother took eood care of me and I was practically a member of the family while I was there. If you hear anyone eivine vou a sad taie aoout tnetr troubles in this war, see if it is as sad as the experiences of this family. . 'IThn nicl I U .- e111 ciiu net uiuuier have been living alone since the Germans invaded Holland. They threw her father into a concen tration camp because- he was a jew, ana contiscated all his fac tories. She got six months in the camp when she was 14 years old for squawking too loud about their taking her father. Since then, they have been bombed out of two homes and lost everything they had except a Rood supply of casn which was all that keot them from starving to death. They still don't know whether her father is dead or alive. Yet they are still happy-go-lucky and make jokes about tneir troubles. "I am living in the chateau of a rich Dutchman here and am enjoying a few comforts for a change. I wish I was back in Welkenraedt with my little Dutch girl, though. Love, Dick."
