Nazi memories spur candidacy
Belgian native running for state House has different view of freedom
By Mark Martin
Kansan staff writer
On May 10, 1940, Francine Hines woke up at dawn to the sound of sirens walling through the city of Brussels, Belgium. She remembers looking out her window and seeing the sky full of roaring planes.
"My father came into my room," she said. "He was a strong man, and it was the first time I had ever seen him crying. He told me in a soft voice that we were at war."
Ten days later, Nazi Germany had taken over Hines' homeland. Vivid memories of life under Nazi rule still linger with Hines today.
"I remember watching the black boots of the Nazi troops marching by my house," she said. "I watched an entire nation nearly decimated by a product of hate, anger and corruption. When I came to America after the war, I saw all the freedom here, and I fell in love with it."
Hines, a Democrat, is running for the Kansas House of Representatives from the 52nd district. She will speak at 5:30 p.m. today in 209 Military Science.
Hines, a member of the Washburn University Board of Regents, will speak to the Mount Oread chapter of the Association of the United States Army about the meaning of freedom and the importance of the armed forces. The meeting is open to anyone.
Ken Hackler, secretary to the Washburn Board of Regents, said Hines would make a good member of the Kansas Legislature.
"She has never been afraid to speak her mind, and she's always calling here to get information," Hackler
said. "She's always questioning."
sad. She political training began when she came to the United States in 1945. She lived with the family of Katherine O'Laughlin, the first Democratic congresswoman from Kansas. She has always planned to run for a public office.
"As a young woman, living with Congresswoman O'Laughlin, I was so impressed with all the things you could accomplish in this country if you cared," Hines said.
Education reform and health care are two issues she will bring to the forefront of her campaign this fall.
"We can work on educational issues, like providing more counseling and more financial aid, but it'also up to the students," she said. "Students can't be satisfied with just a piece of paper after four years. Everyone has to take advantage of what they can."
Hines' accomplishments and awards show that she has taken advantage of everything she has been offered. She was the recipient of the
Americanism Medal awarded by the Daughters of the American Revolution, was selected "Woman of the Year" by her chapter of the American Business Women's Association and is listed in the 1982 World Who's Who of Women.
Hines also served as executive director of the Kansas Water Resources Board and as a member of Gov. George Docking's staff from 1957 to 1961. Hines was also an adjunct assistant professor at Washburn in the communication studies department.
From Nazi-occupied Belgium to Topeka, Francine Hines says she has seen both hatred and hope. She says she has a different perspective on the freedom that she thinks many Americans take for granted.
"Hatred can be so contagious," she said. "But tolerance for others and dedication can be just as contagious. That's what we need to concentrate on now."
