STRAYHORN talks
TO ‘NEXT OF KIN’
Sergeant William D. Strayhorn,
recently repatriated from a Ger
prison camp, told approxi
„‘,elv 65 relatives of American
-tenners of war and Red Cross
S„rkcrs at a meeting last Thurs
j at (he Third street USO center,
:t the presence of their kin in a
■ cf! Was almost a sure guarantee
fw'-vould come home safely.
He answered many questions
, nrt oeneral conditions in the
*b s and told of Yankee inge
in using bits of cloth, Red
r-Js boxed food tins and other
and ends to make many use
i.fthings, including a clock that
w= only a few minutes a day.
It was the view of Red Cross
n-nrkers present <hat if most of the
in the armed forces come
?‘me as well adjusted as the ser
ant their future and the country’s
fijl be safe. The view was also
•vnressed that relatives of men
ip, in the fight would be reassur
ed* if they could see the poise of
♦his returned veteran, and realize
that verv large portions of those
reported "missing are located later
in" hospitals and prison camps.
Announcements and suggestions
L ere made at the meeting relating
L eommunication with an pack
ages for prisoners or war and in
temees. Among other things it was
(slated that Wilmington grocers
and book stores are cooperating in
securing books and scarce food
items for the prisoners, who do
most of their own cooking.
| in the effort to see that every
local prisoner of war gets all the
articles and the best selection of
articles that can be sent, the serv
ices of the Home Service depart
ment of the Red Cross and the
prisoner of war lepzesentative
tvere explained. It was indicated
that this good work is being ex
pedited for prisoners in German
camps- .
Because of transportation diffi
culties and the attitude of the Jap
anese government, little can be
done for American prisoners of
»r in the Orient. Recent con
cessions by the Japznese and ar
rangements with Russia do permit
increased aid and the sending of
| cablegrams by prionsers of war,
and answers to these can be ar
ranged by the Red Cross.
