Who VIII Correspond g.

The children in Russia are eager to
know something about our Pioneers
in the United States. This interest
is best reflected in the following let
ter which came from orphans to their
foster parents in America. Little
children in Russia were left home

them by the capitalist war and by the
capitalist blockade directed against
Soviet Russia. But as soon as the

their first task was that Of caring
