a statement in which mention was
made of Miss Woodward, who gave
Bulletin readers a vivid account
of her work among the Belgian
refugees, in a letter to the Bulle
tin published on May 30th. The
announcer who reported for CBS
said that after the bombing at
tack on Paris, he met Ruth Wood

had burst a water main; and as
she was,_unable to drive her car
thru the street she had been
obliged to wade thru water filled
with broken glass from shattered
windows. She had examined an
unexploded bomb which she said
was about a foot long.
