Stark Poverty More Rampant
Than Ever in SIums of
London.

BY the Associated Press.
LONDON. December Charitable
organizations are massing for their
drive against hunger and cheerlessness
as they prepare for the final push in
the days remaining before Christmas.
In the thick of the fight to beat back
drabneSS in the London slums and
Welsh coal fields is the Salvation
Arny's far-hung organization, working
in cooperation with other leading
philanthropical organizations.
Because OF the economic upheaval,
stark poverty this Christmas is more
rampant in London's slums than it has
been in years. Not only is the need
greater this year, Col. Edna Colbourne,
head of the Salvation Army's Slums
Department, said, but also the huge
flood of cash contributions of former
years has decreased this season.
But the bright spot in the efforts to
relieve the situation, she says, is the
work Of Hugh Redwood, veteran Fleet
street newspaper man, who has written
a best seller and turned the entire book
proceeds over to the Salvation Army's
christmas fund. The book, God in the
Slums," has already run through the
first edition of 100000 copies and is
well on its way to it's second large
printing.
Col. Colbourne said the demand this
season for individual meals was greater
than she had known in years and her
department was planning distribution
Of upward of $4,000 basket meals, in
addition to some 10000 which will be
