Appeal on behalf of King George's Fund for Sailors, by Captain Sir ARTHUR CLARKE
DURING the eleven years of its existence, the fund that is the object of tonight's appeal has distributed more than half-a-million in grants towards the maintenance of sick, wounded, and distressed sailors, and of their widows, dependants and orphans. In the same way as King Edward's Hospital Fund in its different sphere, it acts as a central organization for the marine benevolent institutions, many of which are still suffering from the effects of the war, by reducing costs of collection and helping with organization and appeals.
Contributions should be addressed to
H.R.H. the Duke of Connaught, at [address removed]
