Dear Sir;

I have your letters of May 24th and May 27th, respectively,
and thank you for both of them.

I can well understand your position and attitude in this
matter. Ihave read your letters to Mrs. Uhrlaub. I assure you
that Mrs. Uhrlaub has no desire to be unreasonable, but when it
appeared that Mr. Uhrlaub was profiting from her credulity, quite
naturally she resented it.

I think I might say that Mrs. Uhrlaub will be willing to
accept a reasonable sum at all times, but that means that he
shall share with her in the hardships entailed by the present
situation. |

| It is true there is a court order out -- it is the divorce
decree which was obtained at Mr. Uhrlaub's importunity. As I

told you in my letter of May 23rd, the Uhrlaubs entered into an
agreement in May, 1939, -- Mr. Uhrlaub could show you his copy
of this agreement if he so desired -- and paragraph 9 reads as

follows;

“In the event either party hereto shall secure a divorce
.from the other party, that party shall cause this sepa-
ration agreement and property settlement to be presented
to the court for its approval, and consent is hereby
given that said wife may have judgment herein for pay-
ments herein agreed to be paid to her for her use and
benefit and to her for the use and benefit of said

Children."

Then the court in its decree of judgment found how much
Mre Uhrlaub had paid and how much he owed as of June lst under
the terms of this agreement. (Mr. Uhrlaub has a copy of this

Re: Uhrlaub v. Uhrlaub

Journal Entry sent to him by his attorney and if you read this
pens cig you will see more clearly what I have been trying
to saye

This oaaes bkkoes total of $781.73 owing, which is no more
or less than what Mr. Uhrlaub agreed to pay less what he actually
did paye

You are quite right in wanting to know our intentions. We
know full well that Mr. Uhrlaub cannot pay the $781.73 June lst,
1940, or the agreed $75.00 thereafter, until he gets a position.
It was, however, the only way I could protect my client under
the contract. No effort is going to be made to force him to do
the ‘impossible’. We do, however, expect him to do the 'possible'
at all times. Once we discover reliable evidence to the contrary
we shall start the “mills of the gods" grinding.

I feel that you and I are going to get along all right. I
trust in working together we may be able to make this man and

woman arrive at that 'sweet reasonableness’ which is © important
and so rare in these family affairs.

Mrs. Uhrlaub is starting for Colorado next Saturday morming.
Her address will be: Mrs. Vernadine Uhrlaub, Box 8-872, Hdge Water

Branch, Denver, Colorado. If you are in Denver this summer, I am
gure she would appreciate a visit from you.

Again assuring you of my desire to cooperate in all things
that will make for the best interests of this broken home, I am

Dr. Forrest G-e Allen,. Director,
Physical Education & Recreation,
Kansas University,
Lawrence, Kansas.

Dear Sir:

As you have been advised I am representing Mrs. fmst
Ae Uhrlaub. For that reason and because of your attitude
generally, as reported to me, I feel that you should have
the vt picture so far as I can give it in reasonable space
and time.

First, may I say that in all this unfortunate affair of
separation and divorce, Mr. Uhrlaub has been very definitely
the aggressor. I know, because he has been in my office a
number of times, and in order to get her to file suit he
entered into a separation agreement and property settlement
on May 20, 19359, wherein he agreed to pay to Mrs. Uhrlaub
$1,065.00 alimony, payable $197.00 at the time of the execu-
tion of the agreement and $25.00 per month beginning June 1,
1939. He further agreed to pay Mrs. Uhrlaub $50.00 per
month for the maintenance and education of the two boys
beginning June 1, 1939, and continuing until the older boy
is 21 and $25.00 per month until the younger boy is 2l.

Mrs. Uhrlaub says that since making this agreement Mr. Uhrlaub
has paid $235.27 in alimony and $155.00 for child support.

During the winter months Mrs. Uhrlaub has worked as
beauty parlor operator in the afternoons and has been employed
in the mornings preparing and serving food to the under-
privileged children in the Salina schools, but this last job
was terminated last Friday and her eamings as beauty parlor
operator are very small indeed.

She has planned on going to Colorado to live with her
parents and has asked for help from Mr. Uhrlaub in the sum
of $50.00, but Mr. Uhrlaub finally wrote to his attomey here
that he could not send any money.

Dr. Forrest C. Allen,
Att: Ernst A. Uhrlaub

Now, it has simply come to this -- we believe we have
ample evidence to throw Mr. Uhrlaub into jail for contempt
of court because of his willful failure to pay anything all
these months. I might say that we have waited this long so
that Mr. Uhrlaub might finish at Kansas University and get
a position this year. We have been very careful not to
embarrass him in any way to that end, but now she has neither
the funds to go to Colorado or to stay here. She is trying
desperately to get a position here. It is best under present
conditions for her to remain here. It is utterly out of the
question for Mrs. Uhrlaub to continue as she is. People who
might otherwise help her, including relatives, refuse to do
anything unless she goes the limit in trying to compel Mr.
Uhnrlaub to do his part, and, of course, that, if he compels,
requires that we bring him back here to Saline for a hearing
before our District Court.

You see, in other days, he has told Mrs. Unrlaub that
he would never pay alimony in the event that they separated,
and naturally that is rankling in her mind and heart now.

I do not know how far you want to go into this, but +
do feel that you are deeply interested as a man, as a parent
and ag an educator. I am interested, first, in protecting
hig family, and, second, in saving him from himself. I have
been on the Salina Board of Education a number of years and
know Mr. Uhrlaub very well and the kind of work he did here.

Please impress upon Mre Unrlaub, if you will, that he
must make a substantial financial contribution to his family
at once or he will be cited to appear before the District
Court in Saline County without further notice.

Your very truly,
