MRS WINANT AND LONDON WOMEN WIVES OF FIREFIGHTERS. LASTING ANGLO-AMERICAN CO-OPERATION. (British Official Wireless.) RUGBY, July 7. Seventeen firemen from the Catford area, London, and their wives have had tea with Mrs Winant, wife of the American Ambassador. This was the outcome of a letter received by Mrs Winant from the wife of a London fireman in Catford, who said she wanted Mrs Winant to know that her coming to England to join the Ambassador had “aroused the admiration of all wives and mothers in London, especially those who know what an uncomfortable experience it is to endure a blitz in order to keep the home fires burning.” She added a hope that the Anglo-American co-operation would live forever. In appreciation of the spirit underlying the letter, Mrs Winant sent out the invitation.
