To the Editor of the "Nonri-Cunxa Dat News"
Sm—I simply do not want to go butting about the Marine Corps nor write the commanding officer, but 1 am thinking of giving up my desk ere and in cleaning up, found a notation which I had overlooked. 1 have lost the letter and having such marvellous success with my prickly hheat letter, the lost Kobe letters, ete, wondering if this will be allowed in your column. T don't want them coming here, but I will be at 66 Great Western Road, Tel. 22023, for some weeks and If you publish the Telter and anyone comes in or writes, they can get in touch with me there, A sister in Portland, Oregon, wrote me sometime ago enclosing a note from the mother of a boy named Craig, a young Marine who was accidentally killed here in February, and asking me to find out more details, if possible, as his last letter written just before his death, was "so cheery." She is not, satisfied with the War Department's" report of his death, It any of his buddies' know anything that might make his mother feel better, I will be very much obliged to them as my sister who knows her only through a department store she works for as a house-detective, is terribly sorry for her.
