Appeal on behalf of the United Nations Association Refugee Fund, by John Arlott
Contributions will be gratefully acknowledged and should be addressed to [address removed]
There are in Europe today about a quarter of a million refugees in need of international aid. Nearly seventy thousand still live in hutted camps and barracks. Some were victims of the concentration camps; 15,000 of them are children below the age of fourteen; another 15,000 are old or sick and require special care. Some still have hopes of emigration, but most need 'to find a future in the countries where they now live. For all this, money is needéd-to build homes, to provide institutional care for old and sick people, to provide vocational training for the youngsters, to provide loans to help the healthy toward independence. The need is urgent, for many of these courageous people have been refugees for ten years or more. The U.N.A. Refugee Fund is helping to finance these projects sponsored by the U.N. High Commissioner for Refugees and carried out by the various voluntary organisations which are doing such good work for refugees.
