One wants, for instance, to sew |
a new dress. Perhaps one may oh- I
tain the material, at a fabulous j
i price, or fairly reasonably if bought,
j strictly rationed by card. Search for
linings will prove even more diffi
cult and then one probably would
find it's absolutely impossible to buy
a packet of needles or a spool of
thread. The same would apply to a :
man who had broken his watch i
crystal, or eyeglasses and wished to .
buy new ones,

oranges were brought ashore from a !

GEORGIA FRUIT EXCHANGE. Atlanta, Ga.
(We handle in Carload Lots only)
one of the most striking traits in the
Rumanian people is their sense of
pride. With all the misery and pov
erty of the poor, they never beg.
They are always content with what
the Americans give them.
At the distribution centers there
is never complaint, protest or clamor.
, The Rumanians are always grateful
for what they get, however little it
•may be. Probably no people on earth
i endure hunger and suffering with
• more resignation and patience.
