HELP FOR REFUGEES
BRITISH CHURCH APPEAL
(Received September 21, 11 a.m.) RUGBY, September 20. A letter appears in the morning papers signed by the Archbishops of Canterbury and York, the Archbishop of Westminster, and others "appealing for funds for British refugees from Spain, many of whom have reached England entirely destitute. About 400 are being maintained from charitable funds, and a comparable number still in Gibraltar or at Marseilles are also dependent on charity. Harrowing examples are cited of men and women who have spent most of their lives in Spain and have built up prosperous businesses or professional connections, and who have had to leave behind everything down to the smallest personal effects. A committee has been formed to organise help for the refugees.
