Believe me, the Red Cross did a lot of good for a lot of people that day and during the readjust ment days that followed. At Christmas, 1942, I came through New Caledonia and saw a couple of troopships filled with sailors made ^ lot happier when the Red Cross gave each and every one of them Christmas presents, consist ing of sewing kits, candy, 'ciga rettes, etc. Maybe this . doesn’t seme like much, hut considering that 96 per cent of the mep were six to eight weeks ahead of their mail and wouldn’t have had any Christmas -wltho.nt the Red Cross —it looked good.
