looking printed post- card. It did not interest me much as it lay on the mat.

But then it's difficult to be very interested in any- thing when for three months your only son has been reported "Miss- ing, Believed Killed," when the little desperate hope in the one word "Missing" is beginning to fade at last.

He Is Prisoner of War

You begin to have all sorts of weird suspicions. You rend sinister meanings into the most innocent remarks,

Last autumn, for instance, I was convinced for a time that although he was obvious- ly writing his own lettera they were being dictated to him.

They just did not sound like

Ted. He who had been mak ing me a special allowance out of his army pay and who had always been such a thoughtful. son, was writing for huge

I picked it up, barely quantities of foodstuffs and glancing at it.

Strange words caught my eye-STALAG XXA, Germany.

Then I read the mes- sage that has brought nothing but sorrow. to hundreds of wives and mothers but which I had never even dared to hope for..

"He Is Well"

All it told me was that Ted was a prisoner of war, though someone in the busy offices of the International Red Cross had found time to add in his own handwriting the three words, "He is well."

cigarettes he knew I could not afford to buy.

He even asked for some of the things I knew he did not like.

Suspicions

One of my letters told him that we had moved to another address. I never thought of the fears and suspicions which that might. put into his mind until months later I got his reply..

"I hope there are no bombs near," he said, "and that the old home is still standing.”

But then I had never spoken to him about air raids. I had idea how much news of home he was getting,

no

Even now I do know whether he gets his news from official German bulletins, or from the Swiss and American How he came to be representatives of the Inter- taken prisoner-I-shall-not-national Red Crosa who visit

the camps. know until the war is over and won, for that is one of the things a prisoner does not write about, one of the many questions that cannot be answered for months, perhaps for years.

The hardest thing of all is that it is almost impossible to imagine the kind of life he is leading in Germany, and to write to him without mention- ing the war or even the weather until it's out of date.

What a welcome those neu- tral visitors must get from hundreds of British Tommies starved for news of home!

Who are his friends? What does he do with himself all day? What does he get to cat? How does he spend his leisure time?

These are the questions I ask in my letters to Ted.

Jig-Saw Puzzlo

Only a few of them get an- awered. But gradually, letter by letter, I am beginning to

get a shadowy picture of his life. It's rather like piecing together the bits of a jig-saw puzzle.

Now that spring has come he will be going to work on the roads-heavy work for a Ind who has never done that kind of thing before, but I'm glad all the same.

I could tell from his, letters written during the long win- ter months that the idleness was worrying him, that time was hanging heavy on his hands.

His last letter was full of good news. He has grown to 5 feet 10 inches and weighs 11 stone again at first he had gone down to nine stone.

And the Red Cross food parcels are getting through regularly after all these. months of delays, though they

are arriving in bulk instead of us parcels for individual pri-

sonera.

Another World

-People are full of sympathy for me because my, only son is a prisoner of war. Yet I think I speak for hundreds of mothers who had mourned their boys as dead when I say that, so long as he has enough to eat and clothes to wear,. I am not worrying about Ted.

It's strange to have your son living almost in another world, but I think of those thousands of other boys who will never come back, and I know, then that I am lucky.

I may have to wait months, "perhaps even years, but one

day Ted will come home.

Ending Petrol Waste

Tighter Control As Alternative

issue, it understood that con- cern is felt about motor fuel suppides. Consumption is rising faster than WOR allowed for. Besides the In- crease In the number of private cars in use, stated during the Budget: debate to be 77,000 higher than a year ago, and the expanding de- mands of the Services, there is evid- ence that supplies are being wasted or misused on a potentially serious scale.

This, if not checked, may lead to stricter control of rationing, Fur- ther curtailment of civilian supplies would first of all affect the private molorist.

Misuse Of Coupons

The present position, an authority slated would suggest that all com- nicrelal and Service users have petrol to burn.

The private owner can nearly al- ways got extra fuel if he has friends in the right places. There is stated to be inuch misuse of coupons, and not all of it contravenes the letter of the law.

Complaints of waste by the Army are" widespread; they range from

units in rural districtsright up to the War Ofica. Whitehall, regularly employs motor-cyclists to deliver messages: which a business houso would send by post.

A national call for economy is one of the measures proposed, with more atringent rationing as the alternative. While the Services must have every legitimate need met promptly, it is hinted that to prevent waste petrol for training purposes might well be

rationed.
