   This is a strange, but serious request.
   Is any single male out there interested in a short-term marriage
of convenience, with no strings attached ?  There is a young woman
from Poland who wishes to stay in the U.S. on a permanent basis.
Her aunt and mother have written, advising her not to return home
for any reason. The woman would apply for political asylum, but she
fears for the safety of her brother, who has been drafted into the
Polish army. The soviets take a dim view of "defectors" and their
families, but seem not to mind marriage to a U.S. citizen so much.
Evidently, the anti-Soviet "propaganda" we get over here is true,
but falls short of the mark.
   In short, marriage to a U.S. citizen, followed by a rapid
divorce, would allow her to finish her graduate degree, stay here
permanently, and avoid returning to the horrors of occupied
Poland.

Electronic mail might not reach me, as I may be off the net for
the next month or two.
Many thanks for any help.
