(By International News Service.)
LOS ANGELES, Cal., Feb, 27.—His
unhappy married life in America, his
going to France as a Y. M. C. A.
war worker and his subsequent
friendship with pretty Madeline
Babin, the French girl he grew to
love, were described by Lee Shippey,
ore of the chief figures in the latest
international “triangle” in a state
ment issued by him. b
The statement follows:
““In the spring of Yolß 1 applied for
service Win the Yy M, Ci. A, for the
reason that my wife and 1 could
not live in peace, and 1 felt sep
aration was best, both for us and
our son Before Hus, [ had tried to
enlist in the army ahd she had left
me several times, because she said
life with me was unendurable |
LOVED 'EM ALL.
“November 1, 1818, 1 met Madeleine
x\i,;hin with her mother and Sistpr.‘
placing flowers on the graves in the |
American cemetery in Suresnes. For
ten months our friendship grew. 1
came to love the whole family, May
1, 1919, when I was notified that my
hotel was to be closed, I went to
their home to board and there was
taken into the most begutiful family
life I have ever seen. The ocourage
with which they met misfortunes and
their sweetness to eacH other made
their home so pleasant that the
months T spent there were the hup-j
piest of my life
“It was not until | was ordered
home that Madeleine and I realized |
how muech we loved each other. Be-|
fore that 1 had been a “big brother’
Al the family. Our relations were soo
innocent 1 had written back to tae
Kgngas City Star: an account of ¢»- |
life in the French home in whien I
lived. From that article Mrs. Shippey |
guessed the truth long before 1 1
dreamed of it Just a few days be
fore leaving Paris [ received f'r(\m“
her a letter saying if T had lost my
heart in France it wouid be all r._f:ht'
and she would be a ‘sport’ about i!,l
put I owed it to her to come home |
and straighten things out £
DIDN'T WRECK HOME. |
“Madeleine never tried to break up
my home. Her efforts were always
in the other direcuon. At that iim‘-]
the told me that whatever became
of her I must do my full duty to my
legal wife and ¢éhid I returred to
Americe for that purpose
".\lv<‘ Shippev met me in New Yorl
and-immediately the umhappv snirtt |
whieh had made our home S 0 uu-l
happy before I went overseas as- |
serted itself. She accused me of hay- |
ing come_home reluctantly. :
“1 tried to assure her that 1} w:xsl
glad to be home, but admitted I]
had ceme home with the \l«-urmin:«-]
tion tßat if we could not live together
‘h;u,:,ikl we must separate. She hO—l
came so angered at that, she struck
me with her fists.”
GETS HER POSITION. . :
“The day after our return to Kan

Madeleine a place as a French

that letter to Madeleine and on the
strength of it she secured pu-‘swrlsi

“On arriving in America, she knew

'That made it impossible for her to|

“The poor little girl was very sick,

sweetness have been my greatest
comfort. All her life in this country
has been lawful and honorable and
she has c¢neouraged to fulfill] every
legal and moral obligation to my wife

of our previous unhappiness nothing
I could ever do could make things
right for her now, and begged her te

The soviet forces have been extend

“The demand made by liguor inter

“The national party, for thiz rea
