1'0 AID NAZI VICTIMS IN LIBERATED ‘EUROPE The following iniormatiun i: supplied by 'I‘he Ministry of In- formation, London, and appeared recently in a pamphlet distribut- ed by "Dnpire Information". Tor-

fBitter fighting‘ in Europe ls still visualized before Nazi-occupied countrics can be freed. but plans are being rapidly Cﬂlllplltﬁd for the relief of their unfortunate vpcoples.

j Last week Great Britain was given

a glimpse of the importance of individual effort in this official planning. The nelp of civilian vol- unteers furnished by British v01. untary organizations will be need- ed. according to a brief statement issued by the Foreign Office.

These organizations include among others the Girl Guides’ and Boy Scouts’ Associations, the Order . John. the Board of Deputies of British Jews. the Friends’ Ambulance Unit. the Bri. tish Council of Churches, the sal- vation Army, the Y.M C A. and the Y.W C A.

Nl-lmbﬂlni! IOTiy in ar? they are 110w linkcd up in the Council of British Societies for Relief Abroad, with officcs at 45 Great Peter Street, Westminster. London. Re- gisters are being completed both of teams and individuals available for relief work abroad. Volunteers who _dcn‘t belong to any of the organizations mentlcned are being invited to register separately.

NINE DAYS TREK THROUGH TI-IE MOUNTAINS.

2.000 Girl Guides all over 18 years of use volunteered for relief work overseas. Of these 500 are now in training. and 60 have passed drastic tcsts with honours.

Twenty of the latter went for a uine-dav trek through the Webh mountains, living only on iron rations, i.e., dried biscuits and syn- thetic tablets. Any other food was j forbidden.

i, After hauling bedding kit on Jiandsarts over rough mountain ,iracks they finally cooked a three _course open air meal for eighty-five ‘Home Guards on manoeuvres. Ly. lug underhcanvas in all weathers

they were sometimes roused before dawn and told to hike In the pitch darkness without guidance to a place six miles distant.

The Jewish voluntcers’ field ex- orcise was carried out with the Friends’ Emergency Centre. STRUGGLING T0 REACH HOME The former played the part of a group of refugees deported to Pol- and from all parts O! E and struggling to reach their . The Friends heard of their plight and sent nut a relief party to help

om. During this exorcise orig Vid- diah. German, French and usaian were spoken. , In the afternoon the two parties reversed their roles. except that it was assumed that the "refugees" all came from one village and on returning found it devastated.

Much was learned from the ex- erciael. one difficulty to be mot with was distrust and apathy among the "refugees" which did much to hinder the relief work. Another was lack of leadership in a. village whore a "qulaling" had been all-powerful. An infonnotfuu service was founu to be on essential factor. Another was an ability to hel set up a complete framework o local gov- ernment services wherein tho vill- advanco on allers themselves could take leading involving T- part;

Industry is helping win the war... A industry must help build a peacetime world

The will of our soldiers assures an unconditional surrender... The will ol our people can assure a lust and tlurahle pom '

Today the United Nations are joined in their determination to win a decisive victory. On every battle front and on every farm and in every production centre a singlencss of purpose is speeding “unconditional surrender”.

Tomorrow millions of soldiers and workers can have steady employment if they also unite with determination to bring about “a just and durable peace".

Prosperity can be realized only through the will of an in-

formed and a united people. With their courage and their determination, the people's will to accomplish a righteous peace is irresistible. V

People here, in common with people of other lands, can

prosper materially and spiritually after the war ends-but only if now the peoples of the United Nations make loud! their demands for "a just and durable peace”.
