Simple Thank You

In Ipswich, England, Mrs. Kathleen Walters had anxiously waited for news of her R.A.F. husband, shot down over Germany shortly after their honeymoon. Last week she learned that the Red Army had freed him from a prison camp in eastern Germany. Mrs. Walters' feelings were uncomplicated by politics or protocol. So she sat down and wrote a letter in which she managed to express the simple gratitude that many similarly uncomplicated Britons feel toward the Russians. She addressed her letter simply to Joseph Stalin Esquire, Kremlin, Moscow: "Dear Marshal Stalin: My prayers have been answered and now what more can I say than thank you, Mr. Stalin, and thank you, all you gallant men of the Red Army who have brought an English bride these happy tidings. God bless you, Mr. Stalin.''
