WORSE OFF NOW
ENGLAND’S PLIGHT RELATED ' IN LEXTER “It is really rather depressing to realise how much worse off we are in so many ways than we were during the war, and I do not know what we should do without the help of our Dominions,” says an English woman welfare worker of Red Cross headquarters, London, writing to a member of the Hampstead sub-branch of the Red Cross Society in appreciation of a parcel of clothing. “Perhaps we may rise again to a first class nation, but we do not seem to have struck rock-bottom yet,” she continues. The Hampstead Red Cross have sent many food and clothing parcels to England in recent months, and so that this campaign of help can be maintained, if not extended, in the future, a community sing and auction sale, is being held in ithe Memorial Hall tonight.
