attorney who disclosed the results of the study by the National research Center and the universities of Pisa and letters to the in defense of the in employees in regard to recent i wonder whether you would care for a Halfway objective View on the matter to me As a German National and an army wife at the same the views expressed in those letters seem just a bit if not somewhat Misin the Oto should not have asked for general Jones but on the other there have been numerous threats to the jobs held by germans with it was mentioned that at least half of the its romans could be replaced by americans without loss in if i May ask do you want to hire dependent wives As carpenters or masons Are the dependents qualified for jobs on the Economy or As translators for judge adv Public relations or housing do the dependent wives speak enough German to talk a landlord into renting to americans again after three tenants b a Row lore up an apartment and left without paying for rent and Danges can they talk your landlords into towering your rent  the much talked about pay and benefits for German empty Yea Arel too extraordinary either if you consider that they pay anywhere Between 30 and in per cent of their Gross income for income tax and mandatory i realize very Well that us last few months have been very especially for the Junior enlisted and their but on the other hand it is not the Ger mans fault that the Dollar dropped to in present in if the German govern ment and Banks were to sell Alt the dollars they bought to support the the Exchange rate would probably drop to 11 next dont put All the blame on the tier but try to realize that everything has two sides to and you can always reach solutions As Long As both sides work Nola Janst each other and one 4ast thing to if 1 am a

can truly say that i am doing the Best i my Job is my a major part of my i can fully understand the problems the american dependents Are faced with today and i personally dont agree with the meals

after duty hours we Are not authorized a set amount of sick i personally Haven had a sick Day almost two in reference to each country has their own they Sun americana took Forward to their holidays As Moch As we do believe the com ment about the German government not breaking any records to assist american dependents i finding employment is r first of the language Barrier is of the main our labor Market not at us Peak at the time with Over a million out of i also doubt if the depend deals of our soldiers stationed in Texas get backbreaking assistance front the in finding jobs i realize that there Are bad apples a every but please dont apply this criticism to All in Germany i advise All american dependents to apply for any Job atthe civilian person Nel office for which they feel those who think that German Are falling All Over themselves to push americans out of jobs Are civilian personnel offices often have difficulty filling the so called in positions because the wages Are sometimes up to 500 do lower than equiv Alent jobs on the especially bin girl Secretary of course the advantage of working for the americans is the relaxed and Friendly atmosphere not found in typical German
