from Lady Stella Reeding, Women’s
Voluntary Services, London.
May 11, 1941,
“ 'As chairman of WVS I want to
thank every member o f your Chapter
for the wonderful contributions you
have sent to us, and for the help
this ha3 been to everyone who has
suffered.
The g if's received have made it
possible to s.-ist people who have
lost everythin.- in the bombing of
their homes; people who have not
only lost their poressions but often
members of their family as well.
Mobile canteens given by you feed
those who have been bombed. War
nurseries which take the small chil
dren suffering from enemy action
have been started because your Jun
ior branches have sent us donations,
clothing you made, is being issued to
persons as they emerge from the hor
rors o f being bombed.
I wonder if you realize how much
the fact that each individual member
o f you has shown sacrifices and un
derstanding in your gift has helped
to strengthen the courage and deter-
! mination of the recipients o f what
you have sent.
| Every man, woman and child in
this country is playing a definite
part in the battle which is now raging
and it is because o f your help and
| sympathy that battle is less bitter,
suffering is less severe, strain is less
acute.
It is for this reason that as chair
man of W VS acting for the Ameri
can Red Cross in matters ofeivilian
relief in this country I thank you
both on behalf o f those who benefit
by your generosity and o f our mem
bers who have the joy o f handling
your gifts.
Stella Reeding.
