PEN FRIENDS
Sir,—l, on behalf of the members of the International Correspondence Bureau on my waiting list, take leave to apply to you. May I ask you to put me in touch with readers of your paper interested in friendly correspondence? Having been secluded from the outside •world these long years, and yearning for a real democratic enlightenment and a personal contact from man to man across borders, my members would only too gladly welcome and answer letters from abroad. ' Most of my members (among them scientists, students, experts and other well-educated ladies and gentlemen) have a fairly good knowledge of English, but would also be pleased to write in German if desired. I am sure my members will try’and give their pen-friends every satisfaction. Pen-friendships are a step towards the creation of that international friendship and goodwill that is so essential to understanding and peace, don’t you think so? I am etc.; (Miss) A. M. Braun. 13b Munchen, 15 Lindwurm Strasse, 126/A. Germany, Bavaria, United States zone.
