HELP FOR BRITAIN.
Sir,-Much has been done to aid Britain, but after listening to Donald McCullough’s very impressive St, George’s Day broadcast I wonder if we could not do something more. Her@ in New Zealand we haye afi abundance which appears almost shocking to thos@ who have experienced shortages over seas. Instead of, or as well as, sending food would it not be possible to inaugu rate a scheme whereby women and child« ren from Britain could be brought in telays to New Zealand for three months* holiday? My idea is to start camps on the lines of our Children’s Health Camps. An issue of "Aid to. Britain’ Stamps, like the Health stamps, would give every man, woman and child in New Zealand an opportunity-of "helping, and I am sure there are many. peopl@ who would be willing to give their ser« vices voluntarily in the actual running of the camps. 4 There is so much that we are unable to send to Britain, but which we would gladly share with others. We managed to help Polish children during the warwhy not British women and their childe
Tren now?
