Sm—For the information of all ritish_women In Shanghai, who failed to see the previous letter. we would like to say that an Emergency Committee of the British Women's Association was formed.
This Committee decided that the tooms at Headquarters should remain open for the benefit of members, but that it was unwise at the present time to encourage any large numbers of women to gather there, In view ff this, it is urged that those desir~ us of helping in relief work should set in touch with the following Indies:
Mrs, La Giles, 216 Route Ferguson, Tel. 70601, who, in addition to our usual Social Servies work, 1s explor~ ing the needs of girls and women who have lost their employment owing to the hostilities. "These per~ cons are asked to register their names and all necessary particulars by letter it Headquarters, 12 The Bund, 'Mrs. E. F. Hardman, 233 Grosvenor Gardens, Route Cardinal Mercier, Tel. 75140, Public Hours 8.30 am. to Noon, who Is carrying on, work an ong foreign refugees through the King's Daughters' Society, These people are desperately in need of warm clothing fand bed coverings (old & new) for the cold weather which Is. rapidly approaching. Ladies can, also, help Mrs. J.C. Wynnes, 53 The Bund, 'Tel, 10206, who is in' touch with the needs of Shanghat hospitals, Chinese and foreign, and can furnish part culars of what Is required. These Reeds are very great, We feel that there is ample opport unity for British women to extend heir support along these channels, the needs of which are likely {0 Increase during the next few months.
Tu. addition, while realising that the resources of everyone have been much curtailed, st was felt that sub-Seriptions might be accepted for any form of relief, For this purpose, a closed" box has been placed at Headquarters, 12, 'The Bund. Per= sons wishing' to do so can also send donations to the Hon, Treasurer, Mrs. G.'G, Phillips, 1 Daybrook Estate, 70, Tunsin Road, British Wonien's Association.
Shanghai, Oct. 6.
