Joe dearest,
Hildur cane up with no last night 8: she feels as I do that Trude
should go to the doctor and have a real check up. She looks badly. I
will urge her to do this when she returns next time & I hope you will,
but Hildur does not want anyone to know she said anything. Row, I'm going
to say something which is none of my business 8: please forgive me if you
are angry. If by chance Trude should find a baby on the way, make her go
at once & get her divorce & I don't think any arguments she nay have made
should interfere. If, however, she feels she must live up to certain
understandings or commitments because of me ! & the children, I still
think she should not go through what she has done before. She then feels
guilty 8: untrue to you and to herself, & from the health point I think it
is dangerou. Better to devise some means of circumventing gossip &
prying eyes. I know she will not want to talk to me about all this. Perhaps
I should not even talk to you & perhaps there is nothing of this kind to
worry her or you, but somehow I felt this must be written & you must know
that if in anyway I could be helpzl, financially or otherwise, I was to
be counted on.
I like the Valentines. He is young for the head of their University
and seems thoughtful & liberal. 'Ihe day will soon illegible! conference &
I hope I can be illegible! I feel quite fresh, but the might illegible! &
by this afternoon I may be weary! The Russians seem to have a set back '
in the morning news, but only on a part of the front & Tunis is encouraging.
Oh! how I long for steady improvement everywhere so the enemy may decide
it is useless 8: give up - . .
My love to you dear, if you think I am too interfering just
remember that I love you 8: Trude dearly 8: will try to do nothing to hurt
you if I can help it -1
Devotedly -
E. R. _
We're back & Hildur did well, tho she ran into some discouraging things.
Bless you 8: I hope you get this before Trude leaves.

Joe dearest, _ -
It was good to get your little note written Sunday here &I am keeping my fingers crossed for you & Trude. I dropped her atthe house this morning. She looked better, but she phoned illegible!today. Peter had a cough & llickey the sniffles. At the time she camein I had just left. .She is not worried about the children. Irs. Troyhad called her 8: she wanted to see her. She was annoyed to find. thatit was largely curiosity about laden Chiang which brought about the call!Bow little people are sometimes! Ir. Ieiss ! spent an hour this morningwith ne 8: he is really a big person! Remind me to tell you the wholeMarshall Field 8: Congress Bask ! situation next time we are together.It is too long & complicated to write, but you would be interested Ithink. Kr. Weiss told me his daughter had a bad time 8: he's illegible!trying to get a job in Washington. Melvyn Douglas came to see me lastnight saying that he had heard he might not be allowed to go to officer'straining school because of his past record & another man was denied hiscommission the last day because he had been a labor organizer. Today'sP.M. carries a story on the War Dept. School illegible! which grew frommy suggestion of investigation I surmise 8: is rather illegible!. I feel,as you gather, a bit depressed, but it makes me want to fight harder.
I spoke at Barnard this noon and now must go to the Girl Scouts.Hildur Coon ?! is going to Rocketter instead of June. I'll see Trudewhen I get back on lhursday & I hope I can send you a letter by her.Then I'd like you to move the next week!
I enclose an interview which may amuse you. The neno from ayoung man in B.E.W. I want your reaction on. le want S. Americantrade, but wouldn't these methods be somewhat difficult?
All aw love dear,
E. R.

" Ionday night
Joe dearest, _ '
Frankandlare justleavingfarll. I. butllustwritealineto
tell you that I had your letter ready for her when she arrived at a little -
after twelve last night - We talked about you & I do hope nothing keeps
her from you this coming week end. She misses you. Her eyes must have
bothered her and she doesn't look just right to me. She just needs you
I guess.
- Tommy and I flew and arrived about 8:30 p.m. So I got much
mail done last evening. Trude will have told you that your idea turned
out to be the only one we liked at all for the radio today. The young
ones on the whole were disappointing. Perhaps one must live a little
to be able any-w"ay ofexpressing even what is disturbing one ?7
I'll write again tonorrow. his is really to tell you that I'm
still happy in the thought of one nice peaceful day & love you.

URBANA-LINCOLN HOTEL
Urbana, Illinois.
~ Sunday on train
Joe dearest, -
-fa Have be-:_»'J
I hated to see you leave I: yet I'll so happy illegible!-
with you. Separation between people who love each other nakes the
reunion always like a new discovery. You forget how much you love
certain movements of the hands or the glances in the person's eyes or how
nice it is to sit in the same room and look at their back! -I shall be
so thankful when the war is over that I hope I shall always remember to
treasure the gift of being with those I love -
I cans across a nice paragraph just new for scribblers l.ike
nyself:- "If you do not write what you think you are deceiving people -That is a crime - If you really write what you think you mks people
pay attention to you illegible! - And that is a illegible! - - -
He added that in this life one could say what one thought only to one
or two people."
Perhaps one should just write letters to those one loves!
he is full of boys, most of them air force. How people'slives have been dislocated & yet for Lore it my be good. I hear a boy
behind me saying he's gained 25 lbs. since he came in.
he weather still looks good and I hope for a plane so your
letter will be in h-ude's hands tonight. I hope all goes well for next
weekend. Bless you dear. Thanks for such a happy time.
p ' All my love,
E. R.
I read the enclosed article by Lt. Neilan '2! and thought youmight be interested so cut it out. He talked to a lot of boys fromChanute ! illegible!, radio, mechanics, etc., but I don't think anywere illegible! men - just as well, for their is only one I'm reallyinterested in! We will be about a half hour late, but flying is clear !aJl the way they say, so we fly! ~I_
