To the Editor of the "Nonr-Cauna Dairy News"
Sm—In a kindly worded paraph, in the "N.O.D.N." issue of Sept. 15, your reporter mentioned that matsheds for the refugees on the Aurora University grounds stood the downpour of rain very well indeed.
As the director in charge of this camp, I would like only to say that although we need floor boards.. for three huts, we hope to have Very soon a sufficient supply for that purpose.
I would much more prefer to receive clothing and blankets which are searce now and will be still more needed in the near future.
I am glad to say that there are no cases of cholera and that the very few cases reported (six in all) since August 15th all were refugees from ihe country and these patients were immediately isolated. I am assured that there is no fear that this disease would spread further as the season is too far advanced.
Would charitable persons st with donations of clothing and blankets?
Jacquixor, S.J.
