Syrian servicemen get gifts from countrymen
Members of the Syrian Welfare Committee will assemble Sunday in the Prospect Park Branch YMCA, 357 9th St., to prepare 1,143 packages to be sent to servicemen of Syrian descent.
Each package will contain a pound of fruitcake, two packages of razorblades, shaving cream, toothpaste, chewing gum, soap, cookies, talcum powder, candy and stationery. The OPA has given special permission for three automobiles to carry the boxes to the General Post Office.
The committee meets one night each week to write letters of cheer to servicemen. More than 2,000 letters of appreciation haver been received from all parts of the world. The committee also issues a monthly bulletin, The Scribbler, containing news and personal gossip of interest to the men, which is mailed to them regularly wherever they happen to be located.
Adolph B. Baccash and Fred K. Rassi are committee co-chairmen.
